All contenders, pretenders and those who deem themselves worthy may lay claim to the vacant Iron Throne. You must describe your lineage and what makes you the ideal candidate to be the new King. You will need to do so in as eloquent a manner as you can manage and then have your supporters, loyalists and family members support you in your bid to rule Westeros. This is as much a popularity contest as it is a contest of wills. Are you strong enough to rule? Do you have what it takes to sit on the Iron Throne? Can you garner enough support to take the reigns of rule for all of Westeros?
The Rules to Lay Claim to the Iron Throne
In comments below, put forth your lineage, in line with the history of Westeros. Gather your supporters, your friends, your families and allies and have them click LIKE on your comment (not on the article in general, see below).
Come Monday when the GDN review of A Game of Thrones: Genesis publishes, we will tally up the votes and the top voter-getters will lay claim to their personal copy of A Game of Thrones: Genesis and begin their bid for the Iron Throne.
Remember, when you comment, use a functional email address as that will be the only way we have to contact you if you are chosen to vie for the Iron Throne.
So gather your forces would be rulers of Westeros, outline your lineage, feel free to include your house emblem and describe the qualities that will make you a great leader.
Will you rule through fear or love? Will you make secret pacts, arrange assassinations or be benevolent? Can you gain enough support to take control and sit on the Iron Throne?
When you play the Game of Thrones, you either win or you die.
Dare you enter into such a contest?
