In a promotional stunt accompanying the imminent release of the Season Two boxsets, HBO has set up the My Watch Begins website. What can you do there? You can record yourself taking the Night’s Watch oath, which will then be added to the multitude of others, creating a massive fan oath taking soundscape over the following weeks. Don’t fret if you tend to get stagefright, the voice of Jon Snow will lead you through it.
Hear Me Roar: I am seriously looking forward to hearing the end result. Campfire does it again! Don’t forget to click on the link buttons at the bottom of the page. Among other things, there is this new NW History video hidden there.

At least we got a new history & lore video about the Night’s Watch and the Night’s King. Or was it already out before?
NezzerQuote Reply
Since we know the trailer is most likely coming on a Sunday would people rather they just released nothing all week?

What is with HBO’s obsession with beyond the wall stuff and NOTHING else?!

Ok I’m adding my voice, but I want the option of still bedding girls without being called an oathbreaker.

Brilliant.

Since there aren’t supposed to be women on the wall, does that mean our voices won’t be heard if we record the oath? Mmmmmmm, don’t know if a woman should bother…

Mrs. H’ghar,
Recorded myself though of the female persuasion – I got to hear my own oath played back with many of my GoT brethren (and Jon Snow) in the background. A wonderful combo to hear!

It says “Men and Women of all realms”…so knock yourself out!

Abyss,
On that “My Watch Begins” website, click on “Explore Bonus Content”. There you can watch a sneak peak of the round table discussion and one of the 19 new History & Lore videos.

The Night’s Watch video is here as well, if you have trouble with the GoT website.

Is this for the show it self or for the animated histories for that watch on the season 2 blu-ray, if its for the show I’m curious when it would happen seems way more appropriate for the build up to a late season 4 battle

I think they are going to show the video with all the voices on Times Square.
NezzerQuote Reply
Yes, a woman would bet on something happening in Times Square, so many screens there now!

Sounds a bit like the Borg are joining the nights watch.

Breaking: George R.R. Martin signs a 2 year overall deal with HBO that includes developing new projects for the network.
http://www.deadline.com/2013/02/game-of-thrones-george-r-r-martin-signs-overall-deal-with-hbo/
This is a bummer for book fans who are anticipating their completion. This will surely take up more of his time.
Tyrion PimpslapQuote Reply
It must be really late in the States for there not be no frothing about the announcement of George’s development deal with HBO’S and what it means for the show and books!
I’m hoping for TOJ prequel mini series or Dunk and Egg spin offs, but could mean Doorways and WOW in 2023. Eliot has some good spec and article over at westeros for late nighters.
ETA: Jinxs! Oath thing is cool though.
Ser Lemon CakesQuote Reply
Or maybe these new projects of theirs are related to ASOIAF. I wouldn’t mind that 8)
NezzerQuote Reply
I hope he’ll develop a mini-series for Robert’s Rebellion. He did mention it would be time soon to tell that story….. :)
mags giantsbabeQuote Reply
‘The Dark Knight Rises’ did it first
TomQuote Reply
While I would love the Dunk and Egg novellas to be made into movies, what I really want to see is an adaption of Robert’s rebellion…
chris77Quote Reply
So the Nights Watch is taking over Times Square? Why do all these cool things to do with ASOIAF happen so far away from where I live?

Dream of Spring is going to be a dream and never come into existence :(
DapperDanQuote Reply
I sincerely doubt it will be in Times Square (though that would be all shades of awesome). My guess is probably Bryant Park, right beside their HQ building at 42nd and 6th. It’s big enough for this event and won’t disturb foot traffic at rush hour the way a gathering in Times Square would do most certainly. Sunset is 5:35pm roughly on the 18th.
Dress code: black.

Note that the Oath says no fathering children — but it says absolutely nothing about bedding someone. In other words, so long as no children are conceived (*cough* moon tea *cough*), you’re all good.
wargsareawesomeQuote Reply
Oh dear Ghu, I can just imagine some Castle Black version of Corporal Klinger looking for loopholes in the Oath….
Ser Osis of LiverQuote Reply
I don’t understand how to do this. I hear Jon Snow’s voice and other people’s voices, but when I click on Take My Oath, nothing happens. :(
