Great work. My thoughts on a couple in light of the most recent stuff (the show through season 5 and the books through the sample chapters of WoW):

quote:

Sansa will kill or defeat Littlefinger; this is foreshadowed by Robert Arryn’s smashing her ice castle with his toy giant, and her ripping the toy giant’s head off. – Page 117, Poster: skirpnasty

Certainly possible. And with Sansa in Winterfell (or in a snowdrift right outside the wall at this exact moment) it could happen. Especially if Littlefinger brings the Night's of the Vale to attack the Boltons and Winterfell is greatly damaged during the battle.

quote:

Dorne sides with Aegon and helps him claim the Iron Throne; Tommen is killed. – Page 119, Poster: NIH

I've always thought this was a very likely possibility in the books (the alliance, not necessarily the victory). And I'm pretty sure one of the princesses of Dorne went to meet Aegon to explore an alliance/marriage. But with the show skipping Aegon all together and not presenting Doran as calculating as he appeared in the books I'm thinking maybe Aegon was a dead end and Doran didn't pull the trigger (maybe he never got word about Frog).

quote:

Either Kevan, Tysha or the Red Viper poisoned Tywin Lannister before Tyrion killed him. Tysha=Shea. (lots of discussion of this topic on several pages). – Page 148, Poster: 19

There is a good bit of circumstantial evidence for the theory. Though I'd rule out Kevan: the Viper is a definite possibility and maybe Tysha/Shea working for LF or Varys (wouldn't that devastate Tyrion if he found out after he's killed her). But I don't see the import of the theory so I kind of discount it.

quote:

Varys and his sister Serra are Blackfyres, and Serra gave birth to Illyrio’s son. Varys and Illyrio are working to make her son King of the Seven Kingdoms. – Page 149, Poster: NIH


I'd say its very likely that at least Illyrio's wife was a Blackfyre and he and Varys were working to put Illyrio's and Serra's son (ie: "Aegon") on the throne. Not sure if Serra is Varys sister though. But again, with the show skipping Aegon I'm guessing he didn't prevail. Though I guess they could maybe conflate Aegon with Danny in the show (but it makes my head hurt trying to figure out if they could have successfully switched her at birth or soon thereafter)
