HBO releases official trivia questions for Game of Thrones season 6

Winter is finally here, and the long wait for Game of Thrones season 7 will be over in a mere four days. To roll its #PrepareForWinter campaign over the finish line, HBO has released official trivia questions for season 6. Those who get the answers right and share them on social media using the hashtag #WinterIsHere will get the satisfaction of being the smartest Game of Thrones fans in all the Seven Kingdoms. Or, as HBO Making Game of Thrones blog puts it, they’ll get “recognition in the realm.” For the last time, HBO never explained what they meant, but by this point we’re certain it doesn’t mean “cool prizes.”

The season 6 trivia questions are as follows:

"1. In “The Door,” whose opening line is “I feel the winds of winter”?2. In response to Brienne’s oath, what phrase does Pod feed Sansa?3. Lord Umber taught all of his daughters to hunt. Who points this out?4. Who is the first to call Jon Snow the “White Wolf”?BATTLE OF THE BASTARDS BONUS:5. Before the “Battle of the Bastards,” Ramsay sends a letter to Jon at Castle Black. How many times does the letter invite him to “come and see”?6. When Ramsay and Jon face off on the battlefield, how many days does Ramsay say it’s been since his dogs were fed?7. What four things of Ramsay’s does Sansa say will disappear?"

Fans can binge watch Game of Thrones season 6 to get familiar with the answers, or, they can sign up for the official newsletter, Whispers of Westeros, for hints on some of the harder questions. If you’re looking for a hint to the final question, Sansa can help you with that.

Before you have at it, here’s a quick primer for the Battle of the Bastards:

They simply do not make villains like Ramsay Bolton anymore. Not since he died a year ago.
