if youre just joining us id suggest a skim through of the thread theres some pretty great discussions that have occurred [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Doing so now. =).. That Jon Snow theory.. I had always suspected it from book 1.. And here is the reason why. Ned is way to honorable to risk his honor sleeping around. The only way Ned would do so is to cover up some important sceme. It said clearly that Jon never favored Ned, but he did in fact favor his sister. I have had lots of crazy ideas on what could happen or could happen but the Author is in fact an asshole so I have been wrong several times before.

R+L=J is just about canon at this point. If you really want to see some fucked up shit check out www.reddit.com/r/asoiaf - They've had way too much time on their hands.

Preston's Quaithe video - http://youtu.be/Slc1VIHB1Qk

Not sure what to make of this, it certainly wasn't what I'd hoped it would be. Ashara could certainly be Quaithe, and while that would be interesting, I feel that he's steadily jumping to conclusions with even less evidence.

Do you recommend any of these threads which are particularly compelling? I was looking through a few of them, and many seem like troll bait or just baseless theories

Pretty much anything that /u/BryndenBfish responds to or better yet writes up himself is incredible in the sheer amount of detail included. This guy could write his thesis on ASOIAF across several majors.
https://bryndenbfish.wordpress.com/ is his site.

i still think we will learn that Ashara is Septa Lemore. Lemore is described as being at least 40, beautiful, has an outgoing friendly personality, with brown hair, and stretch marks that would indicate she gave childbirth. this would also be why we arent ever told Lemore's eye color, as those purple eyes would be a dead give away, since they were previously described as a "haunting violet"

Of course though we've learned that our immaculate attention to detail that some of GRRM's details about physical characteristics are errors.

yes but luckily he speaks up about those. because in series of books where readers are sometimes purposely mislead or given hints/clues, a legitimate error can throw a huge wrench into it.

Ashara being Lemore makes sense, certainly more so than her being Quaithe, which, in my opinion, makes even less sense if you think (as preston does) that Dany is Rhaegar and Lyanna's daughter. Why wouldn't she be helping Jon not continuously fuck up if she's actually his mother?

Preston had too much eggnog I think

Also, thanks for the link Mandalore, making my lunch break far more entertaining
