Evening all, The forum thing is feeling a little old school for me, so this is a little strange. Saying that, I spent most of 2000-2006 on the Bronze and Bronzebeta Buffy message boards so hopefully things will soon fall into place. Also, I've just started my ethnography on another forum, so could do with the practice. I've been seeing Beth talk about this place on Twitter for a couple of weeks, and I'm really easily led, so here I am Anyhoo, I'm Andie, I'm doing a PhD on fans and book adaptation (A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones). I'm part-time, constantly complaining about how I never have time for anything... so interesting really that I've signed up to a forum and can't actually thinking of anything useful to contribute to the discussion yet. Erm... hello!

Hi Andie, welcome to the forums! Your PhD sounds very interesting - I have the first Game of Thrones book, but not started reading it yet. I tried the TV series, but couldn't quite get into it, so I'm hoping I will enjoy the books. Did you enjoy your time on The bronze boards? I used to visit them now and again as I loved Buffy! Glad you are with us on here

Hey, sorry, only just seen your reply. I'm not sure if I would have been interested in GoT if I hadn't read the books first. I really recommend them for a read if you get round to it.
I used to spend so much time on the Bronze (the original WB board and then the Beta that was started when UPN turned out to be a tad poo). I visit the Beta from time to time, and I'm not surprised to see it still going, albeit a little slower than it used to be!
