I think the posters on the ASOIAF aren't keeping their hopes up, and some of them were the ones who said GRRM only had 300 pages written. Their fans also have less of a sense of humor compared to the TD ASOIAF/GoT fans, and ban posters for calling George fat . One fan did note, in as PC of wording as he could, that George "has been moving slower lately" :roftlmao:.

With all the chapters he's been reading lately, I highly doubt that he's only written 300 pages; after all, didn't he use a lot of material that was on the ADWD cutting room floor and insert it into TWoW (i.e. those Sansa chapters that we've been anticipating, as well as some battles that are going to occur) ?

I can imagine that David and Dan, and HBO execs are breathing down George's neck to finish. Not gonna lie, but George is kind of an arse when it comes to his fans, or so it seems to me. He only acknowledges them at his nerdy Comic Con deals and book signings. Almost like he hates us all yet we're the ones who made him rich enough to stuff his gut with lemon cakes and Frey pies.

Yep, George has come off as a bit of a dick from time to time, but that's not totally uncommon when comes to many authors. But that makes me appreciate the nice and awesome authors even more.

One thing to keep in mind with that board is that many of them actually know George personally, so people dogging on him they probably take like someone dogging a relative. I mean, several posters on that site (the BWB dudes and the site runner) were in the dedication by George in the forward of ADWD, so they are gonna naturally be supportive of him.

But anyone who has read the series from the beginning is going to very little hopes to keep up. After all the bullshite I heard from George on release dates with both AFFC and ADWD I'll believe the book is coming out when it's on the damn shelf.

I'd suggest other awesome authors and series to keep you occupied in the meantime.
