not sending ravens to all of westeros (as opposed to just stannis)? dumb
not taking renly seriously? dumb
thinking a piece of paper would stop cersei? dumb

I would emphasize the first was the worst. Well intentioned that it was. While the story needed these things to happen - ugh! Here's a couple more, real quick.
>> He totally sprinted through Gared's beheading. Gared had much to say. He wasn't going anywhere. That was a moment.
>> He allowed the Trident events to overwhelm him, perhaps by not realizing Robert was just a drunk screw-up. Sansa's direwolve dead. Micah dead. Arya's direwolve in the wind.
>> He should have had the writing of Robert's will witnessed and ravens on hand.
