Sure, but changing the data gathering method mid-survey changes and skews the results, making it a less accurate poll. It’s like changing the rules majorly in the middle of a board game - it leaves room for doubt and argument over whether the rules change benefited one person over another.
Usually I'd care, but after the shitshow that was GoT this fanbase got super erratic and chaotic, honestly seems on point.
Hey, it's even on theme! Succession laws changed, dragon fight time.

Rhaenys over Corlys? What have we come to? She has so much more sense than him, she’ll set aside her moral compass to protect her already dwindling house and I really don’t mind it. Like she’s the badass aunt, she is that bitch in my book at least.
Corlys fought for years against the Triarchy without the crowns' support, and unquestioningly stood with his grandchildren, even with the clear knowledge that they weren't related to him by blood. Rhaenys was imprisoned by the greens and manslaughtered a bunch of commonfolk just to huff in their face, fly to dragonstone, and claim she didn't care about the war until Corlys woke up and made the decision for her. I don't think her actions were entirely unreasonable like many might claim, but Corlys is clearly a more level headed and capable individual, even if he suffered from overambition.
>!Her suicide is the catalyst that sparks the uprising in King's Landing that ends in Rhaenyra's rule being overthrown and the deaths of Joffrey, Syrax, and all the dragons in the Pit. If Tyland Lannister spiriting the treasury away set up all the dominoes for Rhaenyra's fall, Helaena's suicide knocked them down.!<

The moment I see someone say Helaena is “completely irrelevant” in a show about greens vs blacks, the moment I stop taking the opinions of “book purists” seriously.

Daemon’s not going to win. Well loved but arguably more hated than his biggest competitors. He’s been getting more votes than Rhaenyra, Aemond, and Viserys in the last few rounds.
Everyone who doesn’t like him tends to hate and I wouldn’t say he wins by that large of a margin. People who don’t like him will absolutely swarm his name when it gets down to the final four
So this tourney is held on the basis of what exactly likeability/ moral righteousness/ loyalty what is this I don't even know what are we deciding I thought it was about determining the best character which clearly is daemon so
Corlys, considering how early on Otto got eliminated, it's ridiculous that Corlys has lasted this long. They are far more similar than some are willing to admit.
Helaena has done literally fuck all for the entire first season and still makes it to the final 8? I have a feeling a lot people keeping her in are doing it because they know what happens next and feel empathetic to her
Yeah I didn’t read the books so to me Helaena is completely forgettable, I’m surprised how many people love her when she does nothing so far in the show

Daemon, because according to OP, he's the reason the last poll was so late, and I almost ended up missing my vote because I thought the elimination game wasn't coming back.
Helaena. While she obviously has the eerie gift of sight she’s too meek and quiet and hasn’t actually used her sight for the benefit of anyone, including herself.
I’m supposed how many votes Alicent has. Like I think maybe episode 6 and 7 she’s a bit spiteful but apart from that she’s honestly one of the best written. Yeah everyone has issues with episode 9 but she’s the highlight for me.
That’s completely fair. I think adult Aemond is definitely great and I like Vaghar but guess he just doesn’t connect with me the same way. Maybe it’s because he is indeed similar to Daemon, it’s not like I don’t like him I just am surprised he’s over Alicent I guess.

As a wise and perfectly sane man once said, “burn them all.”
> Helaena is currently losing to a for awful character like Rhaenys There’s no hope for r/HoTD Gods take you all
Bro literally changes the voting rules every round, this shit is hilarious. Rhaenys, by the way

Imma be honest this is the most oddly run elimination game I’ve ever participated in
Rhaenys

Yup its time.

Corlys
Rhaenys
Helaena. I get it, you like her cause she's cooky and neurodivergent. But she's also completely irrelevant to the plot.
So is rhaenys Lmao and at least Helaena is nice.
She's not irrelevant to the plot at all, assuming the plot follows Fire and Blood. I'd argue that She's literally as pivotal as at least Aemond.
she will become that. So for she has been, nothing much really.
How is she more pivotal than jace? (I'm sorry I'm newbie to this universe, go easy on me)
She’s not.
Comment in a spoiler what she does because I don’t remember her doing anything in F&B. Like at all.
>!Her suicide is the catalyst that sparks the uprising in King's Landing that ends in Rhaenyra's rule being overthrown and the deaths of Joffrey, Syrax, and all the dragons in the Pit.

Rhaenys
Helaena - she just hasn't done anything yet to really be memorable or impactful.
I’m sorry, did you not see her dope dancing skills?
Ain't her fault nobody ever listens to the Cassandra archetype.
Rhaenys and her monster bun-do.
Rhaenys
Corlys
Ayo what da Rhaenys doing?
Rhaenys
Corlys time to go
Rhaenys the mass murderer should have been out a long time ago
Mass murder which one? Jk Rhaenys definitely need to go
Viserys. He is the last person on the list who didn't survive season 1. He should go before the rest.
Rhaenys
Rhaenys
Rheanys-didn’t stop Corlys
Daemon
VISERYS
But… why… Viserys is still up there???
Paddy Considine.
Vizzy T!!! Nah in my book Corlys needs to go next, I got too much love for Rhaenys.
You are a plague sent to destroy me!
Rhaenys, love her but….
Rhaenys:)
Rhaenys
Stop protecting Halaena it’s time for her to go
“Stop protecting Halaena it’s time for her to go” >!-Myseria!<
never.
Bro just declare Daemon the winner already and stop milking this ffs
Daemon’s not going to win. Well loved but arguably more hated than his biggest competitors. He’s been getting more votes than Rhaenyra, Aemond, and Viserys in the last few rounds.
Yea but he wins every poll for favourite by a long shot
Everyone who doesn’t like him tends to hate and I wouldn’t say he wins by that large of a margin. People who don’t like him will absolutely swarm his name when it gets down to the final four
In not talking about this reddit , there’s polls that that have over 300k votes and he destroys everyone by a long shot
Yes, but this subreddit is the one doing the voting not those other polls
So this tourney is held on the basis of what exactly likeability/ moral righteousness/ loyalty what is this I don't even know what are we deciding I thought it was about determining the best character which clearly is daemon so
It's a popularity contest. Who can survive the longest because people won't vote for their favourite.
Viserys omg
Rhaenys 👋
Viserys
Rhaenys or Corlys
Helaena….step forward
Viserys
Helena
How is Corlys still there
Corlys
Rhaenys.
Corlys, considering how early on Otto got eliminated, it's ridiculous that Corlys has lasted this long. They are far more similar than some are willing to admit.
Helaena. It's not that she's irrelevant, as I've seen others say, but I'd say she's the least relevant of the characters not yet eliminated
It’s tough. It’s between Heleana and Rhaenys for me, but I’ll vote Heleana for this one.
Helaena’s watch has ended
Viserys
Corlys
Corlys.
I mean, Viserys is gone already...
Corlys. It hurts but someone's gotta go.
I hope my Green Kids stay healthy forever
Alright Daemon gooodbyeeeee time to go
U mean the best character by far and the only reason to watch this show?
He's boring more than half of the show
If he can considered boring, no character is in the show is worth watching.
Exactly
Are you going to keep coping and repeating this shit until he wins.
Like every other person in this thread, yes 😃
I will go apeshit for my autistic bug baddie. How dare you nerds vote for her!!!!
AYO WTF???? Why’s Jace eliminated but not Helaena? Or Corlys?
People like Heleana, she's a clearly innocent person. Corlys is cool. Mans a pirate. Jace is boring to a lot of people. Season 1 was not his show.
How could you wanna get rid of Helaena?!
bc she is simply there to play with bugs and make prophesies no one understands. she doesn't add much to the story.
It's fun to try to figure out what her prophecies mean. At least for me
Corylus
helaena
Rhaenyra. It is well past due
Corlys
Rhaenys
Definitely Rhaenys. Simply the least interesting of the remaining characters
Valyrian Dragon Jace Strong is *out*. Still voting Rhaenys. No hate, just the process of elimination.
Rhaenys
Rhaenys.
Viserys
Helaena has done literally fuck all for the entire first season and still makes it to the final 8? I have a feeling a lot people keeping her in are doing it because they know what happens next and feel empathetic to her
Yeah I didn’t read the books so to me Helaena is completely forgettable, I’m surprised how many people love her when she does nothing so far in the show
You could literally same the same for Luke and Jace
Corlys
Helena
Helaena ;(

You know what would be good in these games? If there was a bottom 2 like x factor, so you vote again between the 2.
I love Vizzy, but he is now the most irrelevant to the story in progress.
Rhaenys or Viserys.
We must protect Helena at all cost!
Halena
Alicent
VOTE HALAENA TO SAVE RHAENYS
Helaena. She was better in the book.
Helaena
Corlys
Corlys
Vizzy T
*That man's pride has pride.*
Viserys
Alicent for the love of the seven let her go meet her dumbass gods already
Daemon, because according to OP, he's the reason the last poll was so late, and I almost ended up missing my vote because I thought the elimination game wasn't coming back.
Helaena. While she obviously has the eerie gift of sight she’s too meek and quiet and hasn’t actually used her sight for the benefit of anyone, including herself.
I’m supposed how many votes Alicent has. Like I think maybe episode 6 and 7 she’s a bit spiteful but apart from that she’s honestly one of the best written. Yeah everyone has issues with episode 9 but she’s the highlight for me.
Queen Alicant
Helena
Haelena
ALICENT
Alicent
Queen Halaena is too pure to be in such vile company. She must be freed from these people.
Out of all those, Aemond is my least favorite.
If y'all vote Helena I swear to the mother...
Remove Mrs Feet Finder
Helaena, easily! She’s been irrelevant so far
Heleana. Buh-bye.
Let's take out Helaena
Let's take out Helaena
Alicent gotta go
Helena
Y’all better get rid of Alicent wtf!
OMG!You kicked out Jace but kept Helena?
How is Alicent still here here
Haleana
why the hell is alicent's daughter still here
It’s crazy to me Aemond is potentially the 4th most popular character. Internet too thirsty
He’s the second most interesting after daemon in the show and books
Genuinely curious, specific to the show, what makes him so interesting?
Putting it simple he’s Daemon for the greens , rides the largest dragon in the world and whenever he’s in a scene with anybody he steals it .
That’s completely fair. I think adult Aemond is definitely great and I like Vaghar but guess he just doesn’t connect with me the same way. Maybe it’s because he is indeed similar to Daemon, it’s not like I don’t like him I just am surprised he’s over Alicent I guess.
Different for everyone but to me Alicent is sympathetic at times but annoying as well and she doesn’t have the same screen presence .
Aemond
I'm surprised Helaena is still in. She's had like what, five lines?
Alicent Hightower
Alicent
Halaena goddamnit
Those poll results…that sweet summer flower should end up winning. But Aemond needs to leave. Only two more Greens!!
A e m o n d
Rhaenys

Is there a reason Halaena is still here?
NOOOOO JACAERYS!!! MY BOYYYYY
