My Cersei alternates:

Cersei:  Daddy's Favorite

Lioness:  A Stag's Demise  

 

I like the first, though not really an autobiography title. 

At first I really liked the second, but when I thought about it, you wouldn't say, for example, Englishman: A Nazi’s Demise, for example, for Churchill, so I found that disorienting. I really liked your substitute as being 100% better, but I rarely if ever change my vote. Maybe once.

Many wonderful leftovers, y'all! Especially I enjoyed Mr. HC's "Let all suckers die!" That one just made me laugh!

 

These are my Jon Con's and Olenna's I usually focus on one acronym and go with it!

Jon:

"A Soldier's Golden Devotion Confirmed"

A Soldier's Grift: Disguising Connington - Grift is a word for con job which I really like, the rest, so-so

"Ascendancy Served" - Griff's Dedicated Concealment

"Ascendancy Served" - Gallant Defender's Choice

Anticipating Salvation: Gallant Defender's Choice

Olenna:

Inventive Gifts Influence Weddings

Interesting Gifts Influence Worldviews

Insidious Gifts, Influential Widow

I Gave Idle Warnings

I also had a couple from the other 2 acros before I focused on IGIW

Flowery Musings on Foolish Lords

Planning Noble Nuptials - This is a How-To book ;)

So many good ones - several I'd have voted for  - even for first place.

The first two for Jon Con are really good.

The first three for Olenna are all ones I would have voted for, esp "Insidious Gifts. Influential Widow"

Planning Noble Nuptials is also very good.

I'll just get these on here before posting Walder results. I came up with these when testing the acronyms.

Hating Everyone: Heh

For Winners, Fine Beddings

The Singers Play My Deeds

The Singers Play My Deeds is very good.

 

For Walder Frey I chose the one I submitted because it had the "spit" part in it and that is a constant theme with Walder. But before I settled on that I flirted hard with FWFB because it had "Walder Frey right in it and Walder is the kinda guy that likes the sound of his own name.

- Follow Walder Frey, Bitches! // Fear Walder Frey, Bitches!

- Frey's Win! Foes Bow. // Frey's Win! Foes Beaten. // Frey's Win! Foes Broken. // Frey's Wedding, Foes Beaten

HEH

- Hoster Eschewed Heirs

For Walder:

HEIRS EVERYWHERE, HEH! - This is a very close second choice for me

Handling Every Heir!

Heir Embarrassed - Heh!     Heh - Embarrassing Heirs - I think this is better word order, but it isn't as strong as the others

And now for something completely different:

Trident Surprise - Procrastinated March Defended.

TABLE SALT: Plotting Merry Deceptions

Tasting Salt - Plotting Merry Dismemberment

I had decided at the last minute to go with Table Salt: Plotting Merry Dismemberment but the holiday and other life issues distracted me from making the changes.

Thanks for the votes of course and to @Dolorous Gabe for building my confidence!

@honeyed chicken I really liked the spit reference! :cheers:

Gabe, as usual, your test acronyms are very good. I especially like Grateful Undead: Claiming Mine Owed.

These were my Cat extras:

WLBW

Woman's Lot, Brood Worries

GUCMO

Grieving Uncontrollably Crushes Mother's Optimism

DPC

Disconsolate Parent, Cursed.

Grieving Uncontrollably Crushes Mother's Optimism

 

I really like this.  I tried so hard to come up with something that could convey grief, unsuccessfully

Mine for Catelyn:

Widowed: Life Before Winterfell

Ghost, Unveiled: Catelyn's Magnum Opus

Winter: Lions be Warned!

For Walder:

Frayed! Walder, Fully Baked.

Tyrant: Surprise! Pie's my Demise.

Finding Walder... Fool's Ballad.

So, uh. This thread still on?

Sandor leftovers...

Haunting fate belied. Knight now married.

Youth is undeniable treat. Onward marriage plans!

Perfect saint, adored lover. Dancing at summer wedding.

Hyped family brawl kiboshed. Nomadic milkman.

Halfman foils brother. Knight: "Nooooooooooo! Mother@&#%@#!"

In nightly tales, history ever beckons. Old, happy, totally satisfied.

Prayers said aloud. Lord died asleep. Sad widow.

I've got several here...

Tyrion:

Mouthy imp poisoned. Reznak's unjust justice.

His sudden death. Whores holler greatly, inconsolable.

Incredible news: the halfman ended by Sandor's blade. Available widow?

Halfman's sad drowning. Wine, hubris, great ignominy.

Inevitable. New Targaryen hegemony executes base, sarcastic blatherer after win.


Lady Stoneheart:

Terror afoot. Stone tears net extermination.

Riverlands' destroying widow lynched. "Be right back."   (almost went with that one)

Immortal nemesis. Tying her endless executing snares gets ultimately tedious, gloomy.

 

Daenerys:

Obligatory perfidy finishes. Dragon dinner. Yikes!

Offspring presented. Finis. Drogon devastated. Yesterday.

Ethereal, winsome nymph killed. Offensive Euron's fault.

Drowned. Under Godseye kelp entangles Targaryen oprhan evermore.

Influenza nixes Targaryen heroine's efforts. House's bold hope harrowingly departed.
