Honestly if GOT had a happy ending that would probably annoy me, i would prefer a bittersweet one if anything.

I.e half the current characters, including say most of the remaining "good ones" die against the white walkers but pull through in the end.

Heck he might just kill everyone and have the white walkers win, honestly would not put it past him

Game of Thrones having a happy ending would be stupid. I'd literally be satisfied if everything just was grim as hell at the end.

Of course, it's gotta come off not overly forced. That'd make it feel meh. But if it is a happy ending? Yeah, no.

OK, happy ending aint gonna happen.

What about guessing if anyone survives at all? Maybe change the poll? A list of 20 characters and each poster gets 8 votes. If you give one vote to Zombies, you want them to survive for the Sequel; if you give all 8 votes to Zombies, you want EVERYONE to die.
If you give 1 vote to Danny, you want her to survive; 4 means you want her to be Queen; 8 means you want her to be God-empress of the Universe. etc

Martin is a huge giant fsn. Wun Wun was named after Phil simm's, a giant superbowl quarterback with the number 11. Martin is not a random author to them.

All that said the coaches are use to it. It generates press for the game, it's all good.

I personally think it'll end with Dany getting to Westeros with a massive army and her dragons, only to discover that Westeros has been basically destroyed by the Others before her landing.

More like realistically happy ending of sort.

Well, I have my own theory, how GOT will end. It is unlikely, but could be possible.

The Westeros- White Walkers have conquered whole Westeros and somehow defended against Daenerys Targaryen, and eventually made a truce, that White Walkers will own whole Westeros, in exchange that they will don't disturb Daenerys rule in Essos

Western Essos- Daenerys reputation was endangered after truce, but she expanded her rule even in Ibben and Qarth. However, Eastern side from Bone Mountains is still pretty untouched. Old Valyria city is rebuilt.

Summer Isles and Sothoryos- One part of refugees from Westeros fled to Essos and accepted Dany's rule, but other part refused to do so, and settled in Summer Isles and Sothoryos. In Sothoryos, there was some troubles, because it was mostly unexplored, but eventually settlers established safe settlements in both Summer Isles and Sothoryos.

Rest part of the Known World stays pretty that same and ignores situation west from Bone Mountains.

What do you think? I would like to hear some criticism. :)

That is easy. A king can write an official chit to make a bastard legitimate. That picture shows the bastard with Ser Davos, the obvious Hand to the King in the North. Even though Jon Snow knows nothing, we have seen him signing official chits.
