Removed this from Cersei's Stupid Evil entry:

"** The finale of Season 6 at once represents her grandest power play and potentially her most idiotic. To avoid justice at the hands of the Sparrows and eliminate all her enemies in one fell swoop, she detonates a wildfire cache beneath the Great Sept of Baelor, killing all the Sparrows, Queen Margaery Tyrell, Loras Tyrell, Mace Tyrell, Kevan Lannister, and Lancel Lannister. She also has Pycelle killed. Then her own son commits suicide, leaving her on the Iron Throne. She finally got her wish for power. Except now Olenna is outright aligned against her, and jumps into the arms of Dorne who in turn align themselves with Daenerys thanks to Varys. The Starks have risen in the North once more and will never support her (and if Tyrion's assessment from last season holds, would likely support Daenerys). It's basically the Lannisters against everyone. And given Jaime's appalled reaction to what she did, she may not even be able to count on the whole of the Lannister forces, either. Through one act, she may very well have united an entire continent with the shared goal of stopping her."

First of all, I'd consider this act more madness than stupidity. Second, it's one of the few plans she actually executed successfully and might have gotten exactly what she wanted. She was in a desperate situation before (Tommen and Kevan abandoned her and it was unknown what the Faith would do to her), and now she is facing danger in at least much longer term, with additional perk of feeling good about having killed a bunch of her enemies. She also isn't wearing her trademark smug smile indicating thinking she's won - she may as well understand she is doomed anyway and just want to enjoy what's left.

Right, it's basically a Taking You with Me except she's not dead... yet. We'll have to see how it plays out. If she winds up thinking "this is great. Nothing is wrong. I will totally stay in power" then yes, we can readd it. For now we just don't know enough.

Seeing as S 6 E 3 confirmed outright that Robert Strong is Ser Gregor and has other characters refer to him as such openly, I propose we merge Gregor's profile from House Clegane into Robert Strong's. While it is feasible to keep them separate while it was unclear if Gregor was Strong, now that it's confirmed there's no need for it.

I'd like to hold off, at least a little bit.

Firstly, I dislike moving characters mid-season. It gets very confusing for anyone who isn't up to the minute and plenty of people like to binge watch the season at once (not me, mind you, but still).

Secondly, they're the same person, but so very different that I don't see much of a point in combining them. Strong plays a different role than The Mountain, has a completely different personality, and unlike the ol' Theon/Reek debacle I don't see him possibly reverting. Strong's entries on The Mountain's character sheet would just stand out like a sore thumb.

Just my opinion.

I'd keep this page. The series has Loads And Loads Of Characters and so this page could prove useful in time.

Yep, that's why I started it in the first place. Good thing it has been revived.
