re: Crackpot ASOIAF Theories SPOILERS

Happy Mardi Gras to everybody in the Realm

Crackpot Theory: Littlefinger has friends everywhere, so I think he would have some up on the Wall as well. If you think about it, Jon is likely a major inconvenience for Littlefinger's plans. He is Ned Stark's bastard, has a sense of honor, but is more intelligent than his own father, which I doubt Littlefinger likes one bit. Plus he's managed to unite the Watch and the Wildings, as well as having House Karstark by the balls. Littlefinger fears that Jon may do something like he did with "Arya" and try to save Sansa from Littlefinger's grasp, especially now that he has a bunch of Wildings at his back.

Littlefinger also controls the land that has the most remaining food that Jon tries to buy from him. Something tells me that Littlefinger refused Jon's little deal, and actually went behind his back straight to the Lord Steward, Bowen Marsh. Marsh may have been under Littlefinger's pay for a while, since its the Steward who would deal with the Watch's finances, and I'm sure Littlefinger made the Watch benefit under Marsh. I think Littlefinger worked out a deal that if Marsh eliminated Jon Snow, that he would send them all the food they need. Also keep in mind that Marsh was quick to recommend Janos Slynt for the position even before he ran for the position, and Slynt is for certain Littlefinger's man.

I think Littlefinger's long term plans with Marsh deal with the Wildings that are with him. Littlefinger knows that without Jon, the alliance completely falls apart. The North will be in even more chaos than it ever had before (and Littlefinger doesn't know/believe things about the White Walkers). I think Littlefinger's goal is to take the entire host from the Riverlands and the Vale back to the North and defeat the Wildings once and for all, also while delivering the last of Eddard Stark's remaining child back to her rightful place and rule in Winterfell. The North would be even more indebted to Littlefinger and Sansa, who makes it seem as he saved both the North and the Watch.

Instead what Littlefinger will find will be much worse, and destroy everything he's been planning: Bran and Rickon are still alive, Jon has risen from the dead as a Targaryen and a United Watch and Wildings behind him as well as some of the support from the North, and an army of Undead pressing down all around them.

Don't feel too bad, if I hadn't seen all the Endymion comments on the OT my mind would probably assume this first as well. It is a good series.

Glass + ladytiger = hodor

This may be Germans.

I just read where GRRM's editor said that Winds of Winter would be released "certainly not this year".



Since he is waiting until, at least, the Winds release to finish the next Dunk and Egg, we won't see anything related to ASOIAF until 2015 at the earliest.

Does that mean Paige+Pumpkins=Cersei?

Pumpkins looks more like the Dornish than she does Cersei.

I didn't even notice until you pointed it out .

It has been discussed. Some think it may have been a ploy and there's still a chance it comes out in late 2014.

Plus twoiaf is coming out this year for sure

I don't feel bad at all.

I know Pumpkins IRL and she isn't what the OT made her out to be. I had classes with her our last 2 years at LSU.

Also, it's crazy to think that rappers are rapping about GoT now.
