      Maybe the problem is that Martin doesn't want to pull a Rian Johnson and please his fans, who are this point are "kings with a tinfoil crown". Hell, he can't even use a basic word like "other" anymore, without someone immediately coming around and weaving it into some theory around the others.

      Obsessed...? Everyone...? I'm afraid that you completely misunderstood my comment just like you misunderstand the meaning of the word "obsessed".
      What I meant is: *MoMoGon* thanked for a Christmas gift (the video) and got so many "Likes" that it looks as if he was thanking for them and not for the video.
      I specifically replied to *MoMoGon* and no one else. There's nothing obsessive in my wording, nor in the context. It was a friendly remark, nothing more, nothing less. How one can read me in any other way is beyond comprehension. Was the "smiley" at the end an indication of some kind of malicious intent...?
      To avoid any misunderstanding in the future, please, look up the definition of "obsession" and read other people's comments more carefully. Have a happy holidays.

    Speaking of Nights Watch I always was curious about one thing. Who left the Dragonglass weapons at the Fist of the First Men that Jon found? Here is the quote from the section...
    "Beneath the dragonglass was an old warhorn, made from an auroch's horn and banded in bronze. Jon shook the dirt from inside it, and a stream of arrowheads fell out. He let them fall, and pulled up a corner of the cloth the weapons had been wrapped in, rubbing it between his fingers. Good wool, thick, a double weave, damp but not rotted. *It could not have been long in the ground*. And it was dark. He seized a handful and pulled it close to the torch. Not dark. Black.
    Even before Jon stood and shook it out, he knew what he had: the black cloak of a Sworn Brother of the Night's Watch."
    "It could not have been long in the ground" Who put it there? Why? Who knew at this time that dragonglass kills the Others?

      But Cold Hands is too old. The wool is preserved too well. It couldn't match his "age". The cloak belonged to someone much younger than Cold Hands.

    The Winds of Winter could never live up to your analysis of what might be in TWoW. I used to worry that a lot of these theories would be spoiling details of upcoming storylines in the books but I think your logic is more detailed than GRRM's creativity. Though it's great that he *does* have detailed creativity to even make this possible. Either way, I'm looking forward to more videos and more books. Just please no more TV show.

    I think your assumption about moon cycles in Westeros is correct. In astronomy, a fortnight is half a synodic month, equivalent to the mean time between a full moon and a new moon (and vice versa). This is equal to 14.77 days. They wouln't use the term with another definition. Also I believe months and years are equivalent to earth's.

    • @notaname8140
      @notaname8140 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I always wondered how years work in ASOIAF, since it clearly has nothing to do with the seasons as seasons can last for several years. I'm assuming when he uses units of time like years, months and weeks he's intending for it to be analogous to Earth time as a frame of reference even though it technically doesn't make much sense in that setting

    Wouldn't Winterfell receive the news of the death of the Lord Commander by the time of Theon's last ADWD chapter? Between 67-69 to 73 (excape) a raven from Castle Black would've arrived at WF. Is the Night's watch hiding the assassination of Jon?

    • @GHETOPARD

    • @juanpablomina1346
      @juanpablomina1346 7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Good point. One of the reasons they kill him, if I remember correctly, is that Stannis has lost (according to the pink letter) and Jon's pro-Stannis, so they need to get rid of him before they suffer the wrath of the Iron Throne and/or the Boltons. That means they would probably want to send a raven to alert the Boltons of the situation.

    • @basknoef2626
      @basknoef2626 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      But would the Guy that tends the ravens (clydas i believe) coöporate

    • @juanpablomina1346
      @juanpablomina1346 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, Clydas seems like a guy who would cooperate. He probably sent Janos Slynt's messages to Cersei, as cantuse argues: cantuse.wordpress.com/2015/01/26/traitors-in-black/

    Dear Preston Jacobs
    There is a timeline taking note of all time passage mentions in the series
    Google "Private major's ASOIAF timeline" go to images and press the link of the fourth one
    Jon 12 is on 7.29 and the battle of ice is on 7.25 (The last 3 Jon chapters may be based on the battle of ice +7 days which makes my argument invalid but still you can use the timeline for future content)

    • @rhaenyrareigns2200
      @rhaenyrareigns2200 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm not sure if you know, but these images are shifting places and depend on your browser search results or something like that, so whatever appears for you will appear differently for Preston.
      Anyway, I think that this is what you meant:

    Great work - a thought would be to reconcile your findings with why - thematically and plotwise - would george hold back TWoW: Theon I from ADwD?
    We know he had to (or was convinced he should) trim back ADwD, and it makes sense that he couldn't leave out the Jon cliffhanger, but still ... if the Theon sample occurred (in GRRM's internal mental timeline) before the stabbing, it seems crazy not to leave it in. What theories do you have as to GRRM's motivation in the order of publication and release of the sample?
