So, unless you pirated it somewhere you can only watch it tonight at 22:00? Do i have that right?
So no more normal chat, theories, ideas and hide stuff with spoiler tag, just blurt it out and **** it up for everyone who is waiting for tonight's show?
Do i miss something?

The latest episode aired on DStv at 3am this morning, and is already on Catch Up. Also, anyone going into a GoT thread when they aren't caught up is looking for trouble.

Still a dick move. No one watches it at 3am, apart from myself and I guess you :D. Most people I know only watched it on Monday evenings :p

Which scene?
On my version it's at 16:35, Tormund is talking about Jon, it cuts to Davos and cuts back to a wider shot of Tormund still talking but the wider shot now shows Daenerys looking at them, right at that moment for a few seconds you can see a Starbucks cup on the table

The rule used to be no spoilers on the day it airs, to give everyone a chance to watch.

You only would have been looking for trouble from the 2nd day onwards. Not sure when this changed that people are now posting spoilers so early. At the very least they could have used the freakin' spoiler tags...

Yeah, the sloppy and abrupt writing is also getting irritating for me. You would think that the producers at HBO would not have allowed this, but right now it's like everyone is just like "hurry and let's get this story finished".

George RR Martin used to comment a lot, positively, on the show since the producers took 100% creative control, but since season 8 he hasn’t murmured a word and said nothing about the Night King, a character which is essential to A Game of Thrones.

It's like the writers are now just saying "what is the absolute bare minimum of screen time we need now to advance this story along and get to the end point" ... at least they are actually finishing off the story lines though... unlike the producers of the LOST tv series.

That started in Season 7 already.

Used to take them 3 or 4 episodes to travel between King's landing and Winterfell. In season 7 already they traveled back and forth in one episode. Season 6 was the last "timeline" type of writing.
