Since we have a lot of Stannis fans here, I'm kinda curious to see how you guys feel about him after he sacrificed his daughter.
I'm kinda on the fence for showStannis, I really need to process this and for example Davos's reaction will influence my decision. I still kinda like him, but that was just horrible...

One of the most interesting and compelling characters. I've been rooting for him for so long, I don't know what to think of what happened. Just devastating. He will be the self-loathing king now, I hope he takes out some of that anger on some Boltons next week.

I voted for "Yes - I don't like him anymore"
I guess he could win me back a little with defeating the Boltons, making peace with Brienne, rescuing Theon and Sansa, etc. But that's a tall order.

I've never really liked him anyway so nothing's changed haha. If he has a chance of defeating the Boltons and helping Sansa, then sure I'll want to see him succeed but that won't change my opinion of him.

I've been hyping up the Mannis with my friends for years now. This morning my friend sent me this re: Stannis hype train I voted yes. It absolutely changed. I now hope they kill him off to save me and Stephen Dillane from witnessing the shit show that his arc became.

I still like him. I've always thought him a doomed figure I just think they are moving up that doom. I thought the acting in the scene was amazing.

I would have said it's completely different, but I've been contemplating and I feel that Dillane clearly sold the uncertainty and doubts he had, before being absolutely sure.

I like him as a character in the sense that I've always found him intriguing. That didn't change last night. If anything, it adds dimension to his character they can explore as he moves forward. How does he deal with what he's done? That's what is important now.

Yes, my opinion changed, but I still support him. I can't hate a man with such an epic beard )

I voted I'm confused, because I was never really on the Stannis train to begin with, but the enthusiasm for him here kind of rubbed off on me and I liked him a lot more, but now I... am not sure how I feel yet.

I never liked him in the books - saw him as a rigid, autocratic, unfeeling control freak with a significant cruel streak, if that's what it took to get his way. I grew to like TV Stannis, after the Shadow Baby stuff and threatening to execute Davos and burning the non-believers on Dragon Stone and using the leeches on Gentry then planning to use him for a blood sacrifice . . . Hmmmm, as I write this out, I realize I haven't liked TV Stannis, either, except from the time he came to the rescue of the Nights Watch and helped defeat the Wildlings and acknowledged that Ned was man of Honor, even if it got him killed (oops, a little more foreshadowing there, i.e., he did not plan to be a man of honor if it would get him killed.)
So, OK - lol - I guess I've never liked him very much at all, anyway. But there really wasn't an option for voting that way, and since I did like him for a little bit there, I voted the first option.
Liking? (no, nevermore, negative, nada) and supporting are actually different things, though. Given the choice of Roose or Stannis, I support Stannis. Given the choice of Littlefinger or Stannis, I support Stannis. Given the choice of the Lanisters or Stannis, I support Stannis. Given the choice of Euron Greyjoy or Stannis, I support Stannis. But in every other possible scenario, I definitely do not support him.

No, my opinion hasn't changed, I've always hated him. I just hate him even more now.

I like him. What he did was unspeakable, but I still like him and will always support his claim.
When we found about this I hated the show version of him but after watching the scene I noticed that I still like and root for him.
That "Forgive me" teared me up.

I have no idea what to vote. First I was mad at Stannis but now I'm mad at D&D for ruining my favorite character for me. Voting confused because I have yet to see 510. I will know how I feel when I see him on my screen for the first time. I liked him so much that I don't know if I can hate him now even if I want to and his character is ruined for me. Sad but true. Hence why my avatar is still Stannis. I've invested too much in him so I must be patient. And Stephen is too good.
