Sooooo the polls have ended and here are the results. I thank everyone for voting:
I am also listing the choices that were chosen even though I had not given them as a choice just for the lols. For votes 3 and 4 that were held a second time (where I probably disappointed quite a lot of people) the first results will be listed first and the final result will be listed second.
1: Should the minecraft arc be more detailed?
More detailed minecraft arc --> 7 votes
Less detailed Minecraft arc --> 17 votes
I agree with the results, a detailed depiction of the twins' experience is unnecessary imo cause like come on who of us hasn't played Minecraft atleast a little?
Gods the amount of hours I spent playing that game between 2015 and 2019 ain't funny ^^.
2: Shall Torrhen have one or multiple partners. The choices I presented were:
1 partner --> 23 votes
2 partners --> 14 votes
3 or more partners --> 7 votes
The votes were as you can see a bit more evenly split on this one but over half would agree that Torrhen should only have one partner. I have no problem here.
3: Which girl should Torrhen end up with? The choices I presented were:
Elia Martell --> 30 votes --> 40 final votes
Val (Rayder) --> 15 votes --> 45 final votes
Dacey Mormont --> 41 votes --> 28 final votes
Ashara Dayne --> 8 votes --> 14 final votes
Arianne Martell --> 7 votes --> 11 final votes
Lynesse Hightower --> / --> 2 final votes
Rhaenys Targaryen --> 2 votes --> /
Daenerys Targaryen --> 4 votes --> /
Lyarra Snow --> 61 votes (sigh) --> banned from competing
In the second poll it was a close thing but it eventually became clear that when you couldn't get Lyarra for Torrhen you chose Val the Wildling. Not a bad choice, I will have to think about how that is gonna happen.
As for why I hadn't given you girls like Rhaenys, Daenerys, Margaery, Alys Karstark, Wynafryd Manderly and Ygritte as choices: They are simply too young.
I won't even comment on what I think of the comments that wanted Torrhen to end up with Rhaenys and Daenerys, one wouldn't even go to school in our world yet and the other doesn't even know how to speak yet.
4: Which boy should Lyarra end up with? The choices I gave you were:
- Domeric Bolton --> 8 votes --> 28 final votes
- "Small"jon Umber --> 11 votes --> 16 final votes
- Harrion Karstark --> 4 votes --> 3 final votes
- Jamie Lannister --> 4 votes --> 8 final votes
- Willas Tyrell --> 31 votes --> 35 final votes
- Garlan Tyrell --> No votes --> 1 final vote
- Quentyn Martell --> No votes --> 2 final votes
- Torrhen Snow --> 48 votes --> banned from competing
- Benjen Stark --> 2 votes --> banned from competing
Well well well looks like our dear Lyarra will live quite far from her dear twin brother in the future. Not a bad match not at all, it has serious political implications for future conflicts aswell. ;)
5. Which name should Torrhen take for his house once he comes back from the Overworld dimension? The choices I gave you were:
- Seastark --> 13 votes
- Pendragon --> 34 votes
- Peverell --> 7 votes
- Emrys --> 6 votes
- Skywalker --> 49 votes
- Enderbane --> 21 votes
It was initially quite close and I really would have preferred Pendragon but Skywalker is good too and in the end more and more people chose Skywalker so Skywalker it is. :)
