For what it's worth, GRRM mentioned a few weeks ago in the comments of a blog post that he's nowhere near half done with TWOW.

Carry on.

Not having written anything fits with that so no poo poo.

I have a feeling they really didn't think this poo poo through very well. Whatever it is that they come up with it's sure as Dany's poo poo not going to be loving crazy enough to match Gurm... They should have the wildcards write the rest of the show.

I have a picture of me with GRRM. He looks less than enthused.

Did you guys hear? GRRM released a live feed of his computer screen so we can see exactly how much progress he's making on The Winds of Winter. I'll embed it below.

Thats a pretty absurd thing to exist because theres no way gurm could finish the series with that tiny space to fit books in anyway.

Between no ending at all and whatever ending the TV show comes up with based on the points GRRM gave them, however inferior it is to GRRM craziness, I'll take the crazy-inferior TV ending with hints of officialness instead of having to fanfic up my own ending. If it's true that GRRM wants the series to die with him up to having it in his will to burn his notes, then I'll take what I can get from the selfish prick. I'm not going to resolve him of responsibility by throwing up my arms and going 'I QUIT.' before storming back to the Dresden Files or something.

The Bloated One will never be done.

Question: who's the more obvious write-in, Magister Illyrio of Pentos or Fat Lord Manderly? I'm conflicted. On the one side, a disgusting, plotting, womanizing blob of flesh. On the other, Frey pies. Hmmm.

Doran Martell is definitely a gurmacter, what with being grotesquely bloated to the point of immobility, having everyone that follows him bitching about how he hasn't done anything in years, having two of his planned, years in the making masterstrokes in a row both fail miserably, and the whole creepily peeping on underage kids frolicking about half-naked while he gorges on and obsesses about his favorite food.

Doran isn't fat, he's immobile because he has gout. You might be confused with Wyman Manderly.

He's just got that jungle fever. And I think that we can all agree gurm fantasizes about being any man with sway over Arya :pervert:.
