~Possibility of Spoilers~
Ive strung together 192 of the most prominent Song of Ice and Fire characters and placed them in a contest to see who the best character GRRM has ever created is! The contest is bracket style, meaning the most votes per round wins. The most popular 64 characters (popular means, more or less, most written about in this case) have been given a first round bye. All winners from the first bracket will funnel into the championship bracket according to their seeds. The contest will continue from there until the most popular character in Westeros is crowned!!!
This contest can be found on 3 different boards, but only one vote per user will be accepted. The three boards are: Books and Literature, Gamefaqs Contests, and Poll of the Day. Any suspicious votes will be discounted. Each character will be supplied with a link to Wiki Song of Ice and Fire that briefly describes them and their accomplishments throughout the series. Theres a lot of characters in this series, my hope is that these links will remind users who did what and when.
If there are any further questions please feel free to ask and I will be happy to answer!!
