Valyrian Spoon Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 For Ned I would argue that staying in Kings Landing after Roberts death was a pretty huge mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Mark Selmy Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Tyrion - letting his cock do half his thinking...whoring, loving Shae and killing Tywin out of anger.Killing Tywin was the best decision Tyrion ever made, specially at the point he made it.

LuisDantas Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Starks Ned - trusting Petyr Baelish (am I the only one who call him by name?) Cat - taking Tyrion to the EyrieRobb - sending Theon back to the Iron IslandsSansa - in all honesty, Sansa had too few choices so far for me to few confortable saying she did any bad ones. The closest would be failing to reveal her true identity to Bronze Royce.Arya - same as Sansa, she had too few true choices so far.Bran - sameJon - failing to better challenge StannisLannisters Tywin - not marrying again. His sons needed decent tutelage.Cersei - choosing to kill Jon Arryn instead of bargaining some sort of escape with him.Jaime - trying to kill BranTyrion - not killing Tywin earlierGreyjoysTheon - attempting to resume his life as an IronbornVic - not accepting Asha as "Hand" or perhaps not engaging in open rebellion against EuronBaratheons Renly - trusting Stannis' honor, although he could hardly be expected to anticipate such a low maneuverRobert - not divorcing Cersei early onStannis - not giving up his hollow claim; later, killing Renly and Cortnay Penrose as well. Stannis is a walking disaster-maker.others...LF - directing his hurt pride towards being such a wicked manDaenerys - trusting the Shavepate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ice Turtle Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 Refusing Ned's offer, then.The reason why she didn't accept it was probably pride and hunger for power but I still don't think she could have done it, Tywin would have never agreed and without him she had no money or power.

David Selig Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Cat - forcing Jon out of WinterfellHow is this a mistake except in the meta "Jon's Wall plotline is mind-numbingly boring so it should never have happened" sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ice Turtle Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 How is this a mistake except in the meta "Jon's Wall plotline is mind-numbingly boring so it should never have happened" sense?If Jon was there I bet he would have spent more time with Bran and Rickon that Robb did. Rickon wouldn't be half as wild and Bran would feel less abandoned. He might have even listened to Osha. If he later went south with Robb, he would have agreed with Cat on not sending Theon to the Iron Islands, he would have probably insisted on exchange of Jaime/girls and I believe that he would have had a thing or two to say about "honor" of marrying Jeyne.

Lothar Imbel Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Targaryens:Dany - There are many, but it's a toss up between saving MMD and not sailing to Westeros the minute she had the Unsullied.Rhaegar - Kidnapping Lyanna. Possibly the biggest mistake a member of the Targaryen dynasty ever made, save for...Aerys II - Setting Brandon and Rickard alight, turning Robert's rebellion from a strong possibility to a certainty, rather than giving them Lyanna and chastising Rhaegar for being a depressive self-obsessed Sephiroth impersonator.

Ice Turtle Posted July 8, 2012 Author Share Posted July 8, 2012 Dany - There are many, but it's a toss up between saving MMD and not sailing to Westeros the minute she had the Unsullied.Could her Unsullied oppose more than one of the great Houses? She had no chance without grown dragons, GC, Dothraki or Ironborn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuisDantas Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Far as we can tell, sailing to Westeros at any point past or present with intent of conquest could turn out to have been a bigger mistake than anything else she did already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rickon needed his parents the most, Jon being in WF in the first few months would've helped some, but not that much. I really doubt Jon would've changed his mind about Theon (who knows whether he would've even tried, he was pretty naive before he went to the Wall), and the same applies to the marriage to Jeyne.

The Fallen Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 For Ned, it was not telling Robert about his chirren (read: children). Robert could've ordered Cersei and her brood to be detained and thrown the full support of the crown behind Ned. And Ned would get to keep his head.This is a whole lot of speculation. Rickon needed his parents the most, Jon being in WF in the first few months would've helped some, but not that much. I really doubt Jon would've changed his mind about Theon (who knows whether he would've even tried, he was pretty naive before he went to the Wall), and the same applies to the marriage to Jeyne. With Jon's dislike of Theon he might have agreed that Theon wasn't someone Robb could trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swordsaint Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Theon deciding to take Winterfell on his first ever naval command has got to be most dumb thing in all of ASOIAF....(pictures Theon's thoughts) Hi guys, I don't know any of you, and I haven't sailed a boat since I was nine years old. Lets go take the biggest castle in all of the North where everyone will want to flay me because they'll see me for the traitorous bastard that I am... c'mon guys it'll be great!!
