End of thrones prediction sweepstakes!

Post by Alan » Fri May 17, 2019 4:35 pm

Make 5 finale predictions
Post them in spoiler tags (don’t read other people’s till you write your own)
Complicated scoring of 1 point per right prediction.

Be the three eyed raven you know you are!


Winner must be referred to as King Of The Arms for one month by the losers -_-

Spoiler
1. Bran takes over the dragon.
2. Yara turns up with at least one scorpion.
3. The iron throne is moved to the north
4. Sansa is Queen
5. Jon goes north of the wall to live with the free folk

Spoiler
1. Tyrion will lose his rag with Dany and get immolated.

2. Jon will be sat on the Iron Throne, waiting for Dany. She’ll burst in on Drogon and melt the throne with Jon on it, but Jon survives and kills Drogon.

3. Bran won’t have any profound moment and his story will either be ignored or just fizzle out.

4. Arya will kill Dany.

5. Jon will dissolve the Seven Kingdoms and return them to individual rule. Sansa will rule in the North and Jon will return north of the Wall.

Spoiler
1. Greyworm survives and returns to Essos with Missandei's remains.
2. Drogon dies.
3. Jon kills Danaerys
4. Tyrion kills Bronn
5. Sansa ends up ruling Westeros (probably from Winterfell given that King's Landing is just a pile of rubble now).

So who else went with "What makes the most sense based on the first 6-7 seasons of the show? I bet the opposite of that" ?

Because I love how similar some of our predictions are :P

Interesting idea
Spoiler
Bran wargs into the dragon and crashes it. Dani sits on the Iron Throne and either Jon or Tyrion stab her (do a king slayer). Someone sets off the last of the dragonfire in the city and blows the throne room to buggery. Fuck, all my ideas are shit, erm... Dani suddenly becomes sane just as Jon stabs her so we're supposed to get all weepy

Spoiler
Dany is queen. The dragon is told to kill Jon with Fire. He survives. Jon or Arya kill Dany. Jon is king.

Spoiler

Dany takes the Iron Throne, but feels empty and unfulfilled after doing so

Tyrion comes to her, points out to the ruined city and says words to the effect of "was it worth it?"

Dany comes to her senses, realises what she's done, and is remorseful... then Arya kills her anyway

Jon dissolves the Seven Kingdoms, Sansa is queen in the north, Yara queen of the Iron Islands etc

Jon gets Bran and together they go into the frozen north, Arya goes to Gendry to settle down post-killing spree

Bonus prediction: What happens to Bronn is just one of many unresolved plotlines, and he's not heard of again

Hm... I actually quite like mine (apart from the bonus one), which means it's almost certainly not what's going to happen. I think I did it wrong :lol:

Spoiler
Jon kills Dany
Jon goes back north, probably to live with his wilding buddies
Sansa or Bran become Queen/King
Dany threatens to murder Tyrion for betraying her over Jaime but he somehow escapes again because he's D&D's favourite character
Arya's story arc is over and she does very little in the remainder of the show
Bronn turns up just in time for the carnage to be over and gets rewarded to some extent
We never hear from Yara or the Iron Islands again
Drogon goes back to Valyria

Spoiler
In a fit of rage Dani tries to burn Jon and he walks away unscathed. Magically there's one ballista left and Bron shoots dragon.

Blast I am late to the party. Ah well, even though it has been shown already, I have yet to acquire the last ep and certainly won't be reading any spoilers, I want the mild huff of disappointment to be pure when I see it...
Spoiler
1. Dany goes full remorse and fucks off back across the narrow sea

2. Jon becomes king, but has the iron throne destroyed

3. Arya kills Dany (hey these don't have to follow one plot, right?)

4. Tyrion comes close to getting cooked for letting Jaime go, but doesn't because reasons.

5. Jaime/Cersei aren't dead.
Feel free to declare me disqualified on the grounds of timing :)

Alan - 1 point
Raid - 1 point (2 if Sansa becoming queen counts as Sansa becoming Warden of the North)
Wrathbone - 0 points
Strudel - 1 point
Animalmother - 1 point
Rusty - 1 point
Sly (with his 5 huuuuge predictions) - 1 point
Mantis - 6 out of 5, quite the achievement
Animalmother - a disappointing second round of guessing nets no further points
Snowy - 1 (ish, if you squint) but gets negated anyway as he posted if after the show had aired, and I really don't trust him not to have cheated. Very badly.

Mantis is hereby known as King of the Arms for 1 month. So, in true GoT Northerner style...

I don’t recognise Mantis the Dastardly as king. I declare the north(Scotland) it’s own kingdom has it had been hundreds of years.
