ASoIaF Elimination Game 31: Where would you like to live in Westeros?


Snowborn

Recommended Posts

Welcome to the 30th edition of the Elimination Game, "Best places to live in Westeros"!

A brief review of the mechanics and rules:

In each round, you are allowed to "heal" one option and "hurt" another. For example

Bear Island 5

King's Landing 5

Heal Bear Island

Hurt King's Landing

Bear Island 6 (+)

King's Landing 4 (-)

The rules:

1. Every battle starts with 5 HP (healing points).

2. You can only vote once every 10 attack posts (9 between your first and last) OR once every two hours.

3. A cap of 25 HP will be imposed upon the last 5 deaths standing. Once this cap is in effect, you can choose to hurt one option without healing another, as long as at least one of the remaining choices is at the 25 point maximum.

4. If you spot any errors during the game, please correct them and include where you saw the error happen.

5. The game starts with 150 HP total and should stay that way until the last 5 deaths standing.

6. Please note who you're healing/hurting with +/- signs.

The list:

1. Skagos

2. Bear Island

3. The Wall

4. Winterfell

5. White Harbor

6. The Dreadfort

7. The Neck/ Greywater Watch

8. The Eyrie

9. Gulltown

10. The Twins

11. Pyke

12. Riverrun

13. Quiet Isle

14. Isle of Faces

15. Maidenpool

16. Harrenhal

17. Ten Towers

18. Casterly Rock/Lannisport

19. King's Landing

20. Dragonstone

21. Storm's End

22. Tarth

23. Highgarden

24. Oldtown

25. Sunspear

26. Starfall

27. The Arbor

28. Water Gardens

29. The Fingers

30. Horn Hill

Remember...

Every elimination game has a theme and you are supposed to vote for a character based on how well they represent the theme, not how much you like them. Say you like X and X is a coward and stands around in a corner and wallows in self-pity. X is not a badass, and you shouldn't vote for him, no matter how much you like him as a character. Or for another example, say character X is from place Y. You don't actually like place Y, for a variety of reasons, but character X is from there, so you vote for place Y. This is also wrong, and you should vote for a place you like.

I'll get rid of the numbers :lol: I didn't notice it.

I'm not fond of marshes. Hurt the Neck.

I love the sea, on the other hand. Heal Ten Towers.

A much better theme. Can we have CR seperate from Lannisport though, please? As you can't live in both at the same time and I'd rather live in a castle than in a port town where the wind is so cold.

They were separate in the original list I made, but sadly that ship sailed and the rest of the people decided that they should be merged. They also decided to kick out the Umbers' place (Last Hearth). I guess nobody wants to drink with the Jons on their home turf. :D

I lobbied for putting them together. Part of the appeal of the Rock is the view of the Port, and vice versa.

And I lobbied for the opposite, because even though they are close, they are very different.

ETA: In any case, the game has started, so I think we shouldn't change the list.

They're two very different places. I suggest killing Lannisport, we haven't even seen it in the books.

It's also this idea of: Casterly Rock = the seat of Lannister power

Lannisport = large, bustling port town, perhaps full of lots of rich merchants who hold the power.

But the quarter Irish in me is voting for Riverrun for now anyway :-p

My issue with this list is lack of the locations north of the Wall. I would definitely vote for the Frostfangs or some such.

Winter is Coming and Winterfell was built by Bran the Builder so that the walls fill with the heat of under ground hot springs. While others are freezing i will be kicking back in my shorts enjoying the warmth HAR HAR HAR.
