yomi Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 ROUND 1 House StarkLetters - DTTW Let us start with the first* house we met back in A Game of Thrones, House Stark. There house words, "Winter is Coming", were pretty good, primarily a warning that the Westerosi had better listened to, but maybe also a subtle threat that the time of the Starks, the Kings of Winter, is coming. However, A Dance with Dragons ended with Kevan seeing a white raven. And while it may well be that none of the surving Starks received such a raven, too, its message should be obvious enough due to the weather: Winter is not coming anymore. Winter is there. Here's the amazing amount of seventeen entries: 1. Divided, Turmoil. Together, Winners.2. Direwolves Treading Telegraph Winter.3. Doggedly Trudging Troubled Winds.4. Destined to Triumphantly Warg.5. Don't Tease the Wolves. 6. Direwolves Triumphantly Tinkle Weirwoods.7. Divided Today, Tomorrow Winning.8. Dreaming To Tame Winter.9. Dangerous to Taunt Winter.10. Don’t Tread through Winter.11. Dire Tenacity Through Winter.12. Damn Two Timing Weasels.13. Destined to Trump Winter.14. Damned To The Winter.15. Distinctly TOLD Threat Winter16. Death Toll to Witness.17. Devastation Toughens True Wolves. Please vote till Thursday, 26th March, 10 am Central European time. 1. <Submission #> Best house word suggestion2. <Submission #> Second best house word suggestion3. <Submission #> Third best house word suggestion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yomi Posted March 23, 2015 Author Share Posted March 23, 2015 ROUND 2 House ArrynLetters - NJVOYI There is no explicit mention of winter in the Arryn house words, "As High as Honor", but the change of seasons has an impact on their correctness nevertheless. Ice and snow forced the currently last Arryn to leave the Eyrie, his seat high in the Mountains of the Moon, and descend to the low floor of the Vale. Besides I'm not sure if Lord Sweetrobin has yet understood the meaning of the word honor... Please submit your next entry till Thursday, 26th March, 10 am Central European time.

Lady Blizzardborn Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 I should have gone with my funny one instead. :( 1. 15. Distinctly TOLD Threat Winter I was trying to find a way to get "I told you so" from those letters and couldn't figure it out. Hat's off to you ser or madam. 2. 1. Divided, Turmoil. Together, Winners. Ned's words come back to us. Well done! 3. 5. Don't Tease the Wolves. Very good. Rather on par with the signs warning people not to feed bears. HMs to 13, 14, and 17. Almost put 17 in the top three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castellan Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 #1 5. Don't Tease the Wolves. #2 12. Damn Two Timing Weasels.#3 17. Devastation Toughens True Wolves. I love the Stark words and see it as simply stating the dour world view ot tough northerners from a tough climate - don't get too happy or feckless or celebrate Spring because winter is always gonna come. It is very Cold Comfort Farm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
