belated Round 5 votes...(sorry, guys, I really thought I'd voted)

1. 5.  Myrmiden nefariously awakens wolf, launching eye's talisman.  You had me at myrmiden.

2. 4. Monsters northwards, awakening weirwoods, listening eyes tell.

3. 10. Mortal? Never alone walking, let eternity tremble! 

4. 8. Many never accept weirwood life, embrace treeness.

Honorable mentions to 11 and 1.

I feel your pain.  My crystal ball is clearly faulty.  

I genuinely believe you have deserved more votes than you got in a couple of rounds.

Last Round? What do you all think?

I don't mind going longer but I think it should be your choice.

First:  11. Regret not, little lost lion.  Share unburnt's glory.

Third:  10. Remember!  Never leave Lannister lair sans useful gold.

Fourth:  2. Return north, little Lannister Lion, save ungrateful globe.

I voted for yours for first place. I got my votes posted just under the wire, before the results went up.

Thank-you, and Dolorous Gabe and rocksniffer too, for the first place votes, and RB2G for the 3rd place vote as well.  :wub:

As I explained in the leftovers thread, I had another entry but was searching to see if I could find a better M word when I came across Myrmidon (which I did not notice I had accidentally misspelled as den instead of don until a moment ago), which in the Oxford dictionary is defined as a member of a retinue.  I immediately thought of Valonqar, and thought Myrmidon would be an excellent description of Jaime.  And on the internet it's defined as unscrupulous follower, or a loyal follower who carries out orders unquestioningly, even unscrupulously, which describes the Kingsguard quite well.

I just fell so hard for the word I thought others would too. I thought I had a barn burner!  But then again, I have a bad habit of falling in love with my entries.  :lol: 

Woofless will pass me now....I really like my entry, but others are better....

Round 6 votes...

1. 6. Raging nuisance lion looses lavatorial shafts under gambit. This doesn't really strike me as vague enough (knowing what it refers to, as Tyrion couldn't) but it's just too good not to vote for and it cracked me up. Extra chuckle thinking of Tyrion recalling the words when he's put in charge of the sewers at CR. :D

2. 2. Return north, little Lannister Lion, save ungrateful globe. Yeah! Be that hero!

3. 10. Remember!  Never leave Lannister lair sans useful gold. Very helpful. Gold has gotten him out of a lot of scrapes.

4. 3. Relish notoriety, live life "large"...Sister'll undermine gratification.  If anyone lives large, it's Tyrion. Good warning about Cersei too.

Honorable mentions to 4 and 11.

Thanks DG!  I don't think I'm operating on the same level as you veterans. :D

I'm absolutely loving reading all of the prophesies.

It's been so much fun, I don't want it to end.  I could go to 8 but I will struggle after that.

Not so!  My entry for this round, as it has been for the last few rounds, is POOP!  

I DO like my entry for Jon though, but it's one of those acros that says what you want to say, but  you know that it will be surpassed by really clever entries.  But it appeals to me.  If it doesn't even get one vote I won't be surprised.

As for voting in this round I think, barring my own, that they are all great!  Having a hard time choosing.

As always, I'm aiming for third place :)

I don't know how I managed to jump to 4th place last round, but thanks for the votes! I'm enjoying my brief stint near the top. This round every single entry is better than mine, so I know what to expect. ^_^ 

It's difficult to choose but I must try:

1) 3. Relish notoriety, live life "large"...Sister'll undermine gratification.  

2) 12. Royal nincompoop's last laugh leaves suspicion upon goldman.

3) 11. Regret not, little lost lion.  Share unburnt's glory.

4) 6. Raging nuisance lion looses lavatorial shafts under gambit.

 

ETA: More rounds, yes, please! :)
