PTWP is Jon Snow. But now he's "dead" so the book will have no ending.

I know your joking but he is dead. He might come back as Jon DeadSnow but he won't be Jon Snow anymore. Zombie Gregor doesn't loving rape people like his namesake and Lady Stoneheart is actually competent and interesting unlike her previous self.

I find it somewhat damning that this is the lowest rated thread in The Book Barn by over a full point.

IRQ and co are REALLY pissed that GRRM actually came through on this one. Also their bitching is annoying as hell.

I remember people saying how cool the fire and blood stuff from Doran was as a reveal at the end of AFFC. It set up things as Doran being patient but very meticulous. Turns out his initial plan failed, and Quentyn is a quiet and shy teenager who's nervous around women. That's a backup plan destined to fail. I don't know how Doran could have even had the confidence that Quentyn + 5 others could actually accomplish anything. Now his AFFC stuff seems delusional; the Sand Snakes and his daughter and everyone else are actually right that he's too slow to act.

That's the thing though, it was a half assed back up plan. If Dany brother wasn't quite as stupid as he was, the plan would of worked. It relied heavily on the dope being alive and not getting his crown early. Opps.

My call is that it's just like R+L=J and GRRM is trying to come up with the least bullshit explanation because everyone guessed it and he's trying to keep up with "subverting expectations" instead of just telling the cliche in an unconventional manner and then subverting expectations when it'd make sense to do so.
R+L=J was confirmed by Sean Bean. He's just trying to throw curveballs in a vain attempt to dissuade new readers into believing what they read online until he revels it in a future (hah) book. Remember in ADWD, we hear that Ned both slept with a fisherwoman and Tyrion sees that fake septa with the stretch marks from child birth.

It's nice that you all finished A Game of Bones, but we still have A Clash of Cocks, A Storm of Swap, A Feast of Hoes, And A Dance With Dragondick.

Tyrone Chapter idea

Tyrone is scouting out Emperor's Crossing, talking about the history and culture of the city, when they stop at a whore house where Tyrone has a personal history. Local men and women recognize him and start calling him "Two Man", Brawn wonders what's up and Tyrone reveals his dark past. He and his brother once saved a damsel in distress from some bandits, whom Tyrone fell in love with. As it turns out she was a prostitute but Tyrone loved her anyway and wanted her as his wife. His lord father was furious but agreed to the match, on one condition. Tyrone would have to buy her freedom, without his families money, and take her place so the littlefinger analogue wouldn't lose any money from losing a whore. Tyrone did so with earnest, becoming famous for his huge manhood the size of two ordinary mens. Men and women, wives and husbands, sons and daughters alike sought him the legendary "Two Man".

While he earned enough money to buy his wife's freedom, a castle, and a large fiefdom right outside of Emperor's Crossing, his wife committed suicide according to his father 'because she was sure a freak like him would never be accepted outside of her'. He moops but Brawn wonders why a woman who loved him and understood him so really wouldn't trust him. He suggest that maybe Tyrone's father had her killed.

That will fit perfectly ( :v: ) in Tyrone 1. I'm also in love with the idea that Tyrone is half-black, and his mom slept the old king, but everyone at (Casterly Rock analogue), including his family, just think of him as having the same parents as his siblings, and just treat him like poo poo because he's somehow different.

I literally burst out laughing when I read 'after all, his brother and sister were both thin and beautiful, with pale skin and blonde hair, and he was 6'6” with black hair and rich ebony skin'.

Also we need to make the reason Tyrone's dad hates him is because he has a micropenis and wonders why his son is blessed and he isn't. He also is sure Tyrone is son 'because they look so much alike' but isn't sure about the twins for whatever reason. They're both too dumb I guess.

I think we should probably give priorities to writers who worked on AGoB to get the chapters they want. Maybe first pick of as many chapters as you wrote for the last book?

Anyway, I'm glad everyone likes the Tyrone gag (sex move!). That said, give me the first three Tyrone chapters. I might fill out the rest later on when half the writers drop out.

Also, I heard that those Diamond Club bastards are throwing a spectacular party with their profits at DragonCon this year. I say we show up drunk as hell and crash their little shindig and hand out Game of Bones swag.

Also also, does anyone have any podcast connections where we could book T. B. Thread to make a guest appearance to promote the book? I do improv on the side and was thinking it would be fun to be this over-the-top super creepy GRRM character


Please, please add my Tyrone idea or let me make it a chapter before he gets his dick cut off.

Oh new idea, he gets his dick cut in half, he finds his wife (who is not dead, just blind for whatever reason), and she doesn't believe it's him before he only has a 7 inch pecker now. He goes to get his dick cured in order to convince his long love it's him.

I'm sincerely writing chapter 28 as a Choose Your Own Adventure book. Thelonius will either slay the anime body pillow, become it's new love slave, die 3 ways from it, fall off a cliff, drown, end up his random female mooks love slave, or find the hidden dwarf village and become a level 5 paladin.

Its more like "having a brain" says that Stannis cant possibly lose the battle of Winterfell because half of the Bolton army is planning to kill the other half of the Bolton army, and Stan the man has advance warning of Roose's big trump card of the I think Karstark men being turncloaks.

How the gently caress does Ramasy know about Lightbringer then? Or why would ask John to hand over fake Ayara?

Then again why would Roose let him write that dumbass letter? How the gently caress would everything go so well when everyone in the castle wants to kill each other and Stannis knows what Bolton's plan is?


I think everyone got hosed in that battle hard. Stannis, Bolton, Freys, ect.

This is not being trapped by plot. This is being trapped by characterization. Robb is repeatedly held up as being Just Like Dad. Unfortunately for him, what is one thing everyone knows Eddard Stark did? Bang some chick while away at war. Turned out okay for Dad, so Robb bangs some chick while away at war. But Robb is also really stupid and his sense of honour compels him to marry that woman, neverminding he was already promised to a Frey girl as payment for crossing the Twins. This is how Robb's characterization gets him killed, because he is His Father's Son. His honour gets his head lopped off, just like daddy.

Someone who's trapped by the plot in this series would be Ned, actually. Ned had to die to spark off the war. If he'd just been held hostage (or indeed never gone south at all), none of this would be happening.

Pretty much this. Depending on what happens with Jon Snow and his 'death', it's a little to soon to play that card against GRRM before ruling out Merense Knot and masturbatory reflections on his own writing.

lovely leaders are a staple of asoiaf. I love the idea of a quest for power, then having no clue how to use it.

I think Jon in Dance reminds me more of Ned than anyone. The job is thrust on them, rather than seeking it out. They mean well, but lose the forest for the trees.

See Jon wasn't as dumb as Ned though. Even after all the poo poo he pulled, the Wildlings liked him and so did most of the Night's Watch. The only people he pissed off were his advisers and unlike Ned Stark he had no reason to think they'd go as far they did. Janos Slynt and the other idiots actually plotting murder were dead. Hell when he even gave Stannis good, practical advice and secured important alliances and hosed up Bolton's betrayal.

Jon Snow is an idiot, but he's no where near as dumb as Cersei or Ned Stark.
