What about the big bow that the giant used? He shot an arrow 700 feet up right through a guy's chest with enough force that it blew him back over the wall. Why not tie a few Wildlings to an arrow, have a giant shoot them over the wall, and then they deploy the makeshift parachutes they've fashioned using goat bladders and twine.


I want to sig quote this

You must be trolling at this point

There's a big difference between being a bad writer, a bad plotter, and someone whose plot offends you by killing off people you like.

Martin is a bad writer; as in, every sentence I've read of his is pretty offensive to good taste. The writers on the show improve his style immensely...and in fact most of the great dialogue in the show is not in the books (from what I understand).

I don't see too many holes in his plots though.

These threads have turned into arguments and pissing matches quicker than Ned Stark got axed.


Unreadable.

I was glad that Ygritte got to squeeze in her catchphrase right before she died.

Even assuming it could be proven that Cersei's child survived, was spirited away and is Jon Snow.
It couldn't be Cersei's child. I don't think they were married before Ned returned home w/ John.

I bet it is his sister's child with someone. Either Targarian or Robert.

My point about the King's Blood is that the Mad King still has a living child - and Viserys would have been King upon his death - because Robert killed Rhaegar before Jaime killed Aerys - so Rhaegar would never have been king.


Women are not looked upon as heirs in Westeros. So Viserys would have been the heir after the Mad King was killed. Then after he was killed, the next in line would be his child, which he had none. Then I'd have to think next in line would be children of the eldest sibling which would be Rhaegar's children, if Rhaegar was married to Lyanna (we have no idea about their relationship), then we'd have to assume that their child would be next in line as far as Targaryens go.

On the other hand, if Snow is the only legitimate child of Robert Baratheon - he would be the rightful king, over Stannis and any other bloodline, possibly excepting Dany, currently. At least out of people:


I don't understand why Robert and Cersei would want to hide their child, and why Ned would agree to this.

Cersei killed her child with Robert. Ned didn't know anything about it.

but all the Targaryn's have blond hair...John has curly black hair. I would believe he is Robert's son with Lyanna over Rhaegar w/ Lyanna.

The Targaryens have blonde hair because they are all incest with each other. The Starks typically have dark hair, so it could work out that Jon's hair is from his mother.

Okay, so how would Ned have Jon Snow and not know where he came from? I'm confused on this theory. Why would Ned hide Cersei's child for her?

Yeah I'd be shocked if Snow wasn't Targaryen. Seems to me this has been fairly clear since early on.
