I'm finally past the show, about halfway through book 3 and I've come to the realization that I am Jon Snow and I know nothing. I've avoided this board like the plague to avoid any possible spoilers, and I will probably continue to do so because it is an amazing read now that I am in uncharted territory and beyond the book.
Jamie is in harrenhall and missing a hand Spoiler http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tiv1UP-oHvs The hound just won his trial by combat. Davos was just named Stannis' hand. I have no clue what's about to go down, but I know it's something big because my wife is a few chapters ahead of me and just keeps saying oh shit. I'm pulling for Stannis / R'hllor- don't know how but I'm hoping they somehow come out on top. I know nothing. I haven't heard from Daenyers in a while, something good is coming there... has to right? No clue where Bran / Rickon are right now. Catelyn chapters are still boring.
Shit, just read where Rob & Catelyn got got. I didn't like her chapters but damn they didn't have to kill everyone. Walder Frey is a dick butt. The leeches seem to be working for Stannis I joined Towerofthehand.com to try and get a better feel for whats going on, I know I missed quite a bit- is there a way to see all the different regions / gods on there? I try not to go clicking around too much to avoid any possible spoiler.
Found what I was looking for on towerofthehand R'hllor seems to be kicking ass, the great other from what we know seems to be doing pretty good but I haven't heard from north of the wall in a while. The old gods showed up to help out Sam but really The Old Gods, The Drowned God, & The Seven aren't doing much of anything.
R'hllor appears to run shit he wants to. The Seven are worthless. And then there is the Many-Faced God.
I am Jon Snow, I know nothing for the Many-Faced God. I'll probably avoid this thread, and this board in general until I finish the books- I don't like seeing even hints at spoilers and what people may be alive in future books.
He's been around, but not sure if by that name. Doesn't give away anything though. I didn't mention anything about the old gods and the north because I don't remember which books have what.
Oh yeah, not saying you gave anything away- just trying to find my thread I'll see other thread titles and I don't even like seeing that. Hell, I don't even like when my wife says "oh I can't wait until you get to the next _____ chapter"
And the Old Gods, well Spoiler its a one eyed albino in a freaking tree breathing on folks creepily through other trees.
