Summary

The text discusses the seventh season launch of "Game of Thrones" and how it has inspired various activities, including publishing graphy content that uses Neo4j, graph visualizations, and graph algorithms. The producers have created their own version of events in Westeros, which can be analyzed using graph databases. The post highlights several examples of such analyses, including a network analysis of character co-occurences in the third book by Will Lyon, who used Neo4j to gain insight into the relevance and connections of people. Another example is Tomaz Bratanic's work on analyzing Kaggle data to draw insights around battles, deaths, and allegiances. The post encourages readers to participate in these activities and share their results, with a chance to win prizes, including Game of Thrones merchandise and a T-shirt.
