I think this is what you're talking about re: using Game of Thrones to remember facts. I do remember faces and people (and Game of Thrones characters) quite well, so I have fairly high hopes for this process, but it occurs to me that a lot of people on LW report face-blindness to varying degrees. This might not work so well for these people.

Yes, that the thread I meant.

I have no problem with recognizing I meet in person again. I think the main issue is that I don't consume much fiction.
