Or, at least I ~~hope~~ think it does. The big reveal at the Tower of Joy was clear as could be to all of us, but then, we're hard-core geeks about the books and the show. Most of the viewing audience worldwide, is not. I'm gob-smacked these last few days since 6x10 to find how many people didn't understand the meaning of ToJ at all. I mean, seriously Did. Not. Get. It. I see comments like 'So who was the lady in the bed, a whore?' 'Wait, that's Ned's sister? So, he screwed his sister and she had a baby?'

The showrunners didn't help themselves, I think, by making a big mystery of Lyanna saying 'His name is...' and leaving it there. Besides driving me to distraction, :lol:

if she had said the name Aemon Targaryen or Whoever Targaryen, there wouldn't now exist this confusion among show-only viewers. After all, they've been told since Season 1 that Ned Stark is Jon's father, they believe that Ned Stark is Jon's father. I get it, the showrunners want to have this off-season's question be--Who. Is. Jon's. Father, or What. Is. Jon's. Real. Surname, much as they had the off-season before S6 question 'Will Jon Come Back from the Dead?' But if that is the case, if we in fact see HBO pushing the 'Who Is Jon's Father' theme during this off-season, then it logically follows they're going to have to explain in S7 exactly who that father is and how it came about that he and Lyanna Stark ended up having a child together. It won't do for them to just have someone or other pop up and name Rhaegar Targaryen, because again, half the viewing audience on earth will be like Wut? Who?

I think all this confusion can be cleared up pretty quickly (the show having lots of other stuff to address in a shortened-season) via Bran's vision of the Tourney of Harrenhal and perhaps a later, short scene of a loving embrace between Rhaegar and Lyanna. It might be too much to hope that we'll also get the Robert-Rhaegar duel at the Trident, however briefly, culminating in Rhaegar's death. But if there is any clue to be gained during the upcoming months of production, we know we have a couple of the best Sherlock Holmes, CSI leak-detectives in the GoT universe right here at this board. If there's a clue to be had, they'll find it and we'll have it. Can't wait!

I'm certainly very hopeful for it :pray:

I've said in another thread but I think the minimum characters they'll need would be Rhaegar, Elia, Ned and Lyanna. Since the latter two and Aerys have already been cast, there's even less work required. I'm hopeful that since they included Rickard Stark in the Winterfell flashbacks, then they'll give us Brandon and Robert at Harrenhal :pray:

You wouldn't really need many of them to speak. Elia, for example, could most likely be silent. IIRC Littlefinger said he was there so he's another possibility.

I need to not get too obsessed about this, or I'll be absolutely gutted if it doesn't show up :lol:

I see that some Redditors agree with this--this post has more than 350 responses.

I expect a Harrenhal Tourney flashback next season. It has to happen. Its so fucking logical. It will be a low budget scene - no CGI or special effects, it will be EPIC for ASOIAF nerds, and it will provide enormous clarity to casual viewers of the show.

Bring back young Ned Stark actor so show-only watchers understand the time frame. Bring back the actress who played Lyanna so they have further re-enforcement. Bring back the Howland Reed actor for even further re-enforcement. Then show us Rhaegar (how the fuck could D&D not want to show a depiction of such a cool/critical character like Rhaegar?) giving Lyanna the winter rose after he wins the tourney. Then show them running off together right after the tourney (this isn't when they elope together in the books but it makes it simpler for show-only watchers). Then cut to Jon Snows face again.

I feel bad for show-only watchers because the casual viewers don't obsess over little details here and there like we do and they have absolutely no idea who Rhaegar is. They literally don't have a face to put to the name so when he's casually mentioned for 1 line every 15 episodes it doesn't register with any of them.

The reveal for us book readers was so fucking rewarding and emotional but for most show-only people I've talked to they were just confused more than anything and they have no idea who the fuck Rhaegar is.

"Wait - so Ned had a bastard with his sister just like Jaime and Cersei?"

"Wait - so Jon is the child of Neds sister and that fat old King from season 1 who was Neds BFF?"

Basically, the show needs to make a clear connection to Rhaegar being Jons father. I think there's a good chance D&D will follow through on this next season, but if they dont; i think they're making a huge mistake and wasting some golden material from the books.

And then there's this one--which I pretty much agree with! :lol:

Please sweet jesus don't give this treasured scene to Mylod. People will come out of it thinking Rhaegar is Ned's brother and Robert is Lyanna's Mom.

"The reveal for us book readers was so fucking rewarding and emotional but for most show-only people I've talked to they were just confused more than anything and they have no idea who the fuck Rhaegar is."

While I do agree the Tower of Joy scene was far more rewarding and emotional for those of us who read the books and have waited such a long time to see the theory come to reality, I disagree that it was too confusing and that show-only fans have no idea who Rhaegar was. I have two family members who both picked it up easily (without my help) and I've read lots of great articles and reviews from show only fans who are quite intelligent and easily recalled all the times they talked about him ... whether is was Robert Baratheon way back in Seasons 1 and 2, or Barristan and Dany in several seasons or Littlefinger and Sansa ... Rhaegar was discussed quite a few times and the name has been used often and descriptively over the seasons. You would have to be a very casual watcher to have forgotten all of that and have no idea who Rhaegar is for the Tower of Joy scenes.

Could it have been done differently? Probably. I'm still in the camp that felt it should have been all one scene or at the very least the same episode but I understand why they held it off until the finale for the impact it had just before Jon's King in the North scene.

I think a Young Barristan at the Tourney would also be cool. It depends how long the flashback would be.

I don't think the fact that many viewers didn't understand the significance of ToJ means they weren't paying attention or were just being dense or whatever. I can't judge what show-only viewers grasp or fail to grasp, of course, since I know the books. But I saw this post at another board from someone who loves the show and whose opinions I respect, and I think it pretty much sums up the issue.

The TOJ big reveal appears to only be important for those that knew to look for it. It is sort of like when Lysa Aaron revealed that she and Littlefinger killed Jon Aaron and no one seemed to understand what a huge reveal that was. Book readers were looking for it, but it went over the heads of everyone else. I mean the death of Jon Aaron is what starts the whole snowball rolling which eventually rips through like an avalanche, but a lot of my friends did not understand that and had forgotten who Jon Aaron was.

I actually had a friend ask me yesterday who that woman was with Ned. Then she asked if her handmaiden / nurse was Shae. Obviously something was lost in translation. I tried to explain some of it, but she asked now who is this Rhaegar. Then she said well if this Rhaegar is Dany's brother, then I guess her and Jon can't get married. She seemed to think the whole point of the show was so that Jon and Dany could get married.

Usually I do not like to criticize the show because I personally think they do a tremendous job with this leviathan of a story, but perhaps the TOJ needed a bit more context in order to make more sense to the unsullied. I was hoping they would go to the crypts and something a little more direct would be revealed there. I do not know what, but maybe a big old dragon's egg, a crown, a baby book with both father and mother's names written in would have been a little clearer. I understand that Jon Snow knows nothing, but I hadn't realized that everyone else knew nothing as well.

I agree. This is a leviathan of a story. Not so much for those of us who are book-readers, we made our way inch by inch through the leviathan books, but for show-only viewers. The show needs the Tourney at Harrenal to explain all this backstory. My 2 cents.

They really shouldn't have cut the ToJ in half. The whole thing should've been included in 6x03 and the cut from the baby would've transferred to Jon's face before Edd tells him it's time to hang the mutineers.

My father (who's just a show watcher) understood that Lyanna is Ned's sister and Jon is her son. But he didn't get who the father was, and though that this was to show that Ned wasn't dishonourable and that Jon truly is a trueborn Stark. After I told him that Rhaegar kidnapped Lyanna, he was curious why Lyanna would want Ned to protect Jon if he was product of rape.

I completely agree cutting Tower of Joy in half was not the best choice. I understand why they did it - for the impact it had on Jon becoming King in the North, and because they wanted the Three Eyed Raven to be with him in the first few scenes/visions to show that Bran is not ready yet and still being guided - plus the Wylis/Hodor introduction ... but still, it did cause a gap in between the two significant halves of the story that may have confused some viewers.

I bounced this off my half brother and eldest son over the weekend camping trip and both of them understood who Rhaegar was and why the kingsguard were wearing Targaryen armor, but only my elder son thought Rhaegar and Lyanna ran away together where my half brother thought she had actually been kidnapped and the kingsguard were holding here there against her will. Hopefully that question will be resolved next season. I agree a tourney flashback would fill the bill as would them leaving together and whatever happened in nearly a year since her pregnancy was full term when Lyanna had Jon.

I think part of the reason they cut it in half is because it was the scene that established Bran might have an effect on the past, which opened up the possibility for everything that happened in The Door. And clearly they wanted Lyanna as Jon's mother to be a huge reveal at the end of the season, so it was split. I think that would have worked a lot better if they'd included different, other backstory in there, even in a fragmented way. Like a brief scene of Harrenhal (Rhaegar crowning Lyanna for example), or even Lyanna telling Ned that loving her wouldn't keep Robert from other people's beds, or even like Young Ned's reaction to hearing Rhaegar had taken Lyanna. Just other small things to set up the whole TOJ and remind people what was going on there and why it mattered. Alas.

I do hope we get Harrenhal in Season 7. I'm not totally sure we will because I think how the TOJ was dealt with in Season 6 suggests they aren't nuts about spending a lot of time on that particularly history, but now that they've connected the dots to Jon I think they really have to do more backstory. Here's hoping.

I'd been thinking about this, and while I'm not fully against the idea of splitting it in half, I feel like it could've been 'continued' better.

Like me if when Brab touches the Weirwood in 610, we could've have a sort of "flashback/jumpcuts" kind of scene with voice-overs if Dayne and Ned saying "our prince wanted us here" and "where's my sister", just to push the relationship between the characters a bit further. Just jumping straight back into it again was a mistake that could've been avoided. I don't really agree though that it should've been in 603 before the execution; I feel like a reveal that early on then just moving on wouldn't have worked as well as it did in 610

So funny! I do too! Completely irrational, but can't stand the character!!

For unsullied, the TOJ reveal was very murky. Some I've spoken to completely missed who Jon's father is insinuated to be - so that tells me they are going to have to clarify all of that in S7, which makes me VERY hopeful that we'll finally meet Rhaegar (is there a Hemsworth brother we haven't met yet hiding in the shadows with lucious blond locks waiting to make his screen debut? Pretty please? LOL) and more importantly to me, finally make it clear there was no rape, there was no kidnapping - that this was two people in love who's romance started the entire series in motion....

Installation	Customization
1. Templates 2. Building a Mini-Profile 3. Custom Profile Fields 4. Prerequisites	User Variables Javascript

Welcome to the help dialog for the Custom Mini-Profile Creator plugin!

Click on any of the tabs above to go through the plugin configuration process!

You can access this menu at any time by clicking on the

icon in the bottom right bar (may not be applicable if you're on Forums.net), or you can disable the welcome window and/or the icon by going to Plugins > Manage > Custom Mini-Profile Creator and changing the Show Help option.

This step is essential as it gives the plugin everything it needs on the page to get as much profile information as possible.

To make the profile variables work you'll need to add a new line to the very end of Themes > Layout Templates > Mini-Profile and paste the code below on it. The code should be placed completely outside of the mini-profile, so if you're using the default mini-profile template this will be after the very last closing </div> tag. This needs to be done on every theme you have the plugin enabled on as the template is theme-specific.

If your mini-profile template is already customized and you've hit the variable limit for your template you're free to remove any lines from the code below if they contain information that you don't plan on using. For example, if you have no plans to ever add a user's IP to their mini-profile for staff reference you can remove <div class="mp-info ip">$[user.ip]</div> from the code and everything else will still work just fine.

<!-- Custom Mini-Profile Plugin Data -->

Click to show example

Once you've added the HTML from the Layout Templates tab you're ready to move on to building your mini-profiles. If you want to get going and try some out now or you're not very adept at HTML, CSS, or Javascript, worry not! This plugin includes some examples for you to try out. You're free to skip to the Custom Profile Fields tab and read over this tab later when you're ready to build your own.

Here's a quick rundown of each of the components in Plugins > Manage > Custom Mini-Profile Creator:

Name
This is the name you'll be adding to your custom profile field dropdown once you've finished coding the mini-profile. Pretty self-explanatory. Make sure this name is unique from every other name you use for your mini-profiles or you'll end up overwriting the earlier ones in the list.

HTML
This is the HTML that will go inside your mini-profile. You can use just about any HTML tag here so long as it's appropriate for where the mini-profile is showing on the page. Please refrain from using <style> or <script> tags here. You have the next two sections for that! Also, remember that mini-profiles can show multiple times on the same page, so you shouldn't add ID attributes to any of your elements here. Two elements on the same page cannot have the same ID per HTML standards.

CSS
This is where you'll place what would normally go in your forum's style sheet or what would normally be between <style> tags. Try to code your mini-profile's HTML in a way that will allow you to target it specifically with your selectors. For example, you can surround all of the content in your HTML with a <div> element with a class and target that class and its child elements specifically with your CSS. That way you don't accidentally target every mini-profile on the page with CSS that was meant for the one you're building. One more thing: The forum theme's CSS still applies beforehand, so your mini-profile may look right in one theme but not in another. The best way to circumvent this is to define as many styles as you can to override the theme's CSS.

Javascript
Anything that normally goes between <script> tags will go here. This one's a bit tricky since you'll obviously want to target the custom mini-profile specifically. Luckily there's an easy way to do that. In your statements you can use the $(this) variable to target the mini-profile if you're coding using jQuery. Otherwise, if you only plan on using standard Javascript you can target $(this)[0] instead.

Once you've finished building your mini-profiles it's finally time to add them to the Edit Profile page for use! To enable selection of custom mini-profiles you'll first need to add two specific custom profile fields in Members > Custom Profile Fields in your forum's admin area:

Mini-Profile Theme
Staff Mini-Profile Theme

Mini-Profile Theme is for mini-profiles that are designed for member use. You can set the Who Can Edit option for this field to Staff With Power if you only want staff to be able to choose mini-profiles for users. Otherwise, if you want members to freely be able to choose their own mini-profiles you can choose Members and Staff With Power.

Staff Mini-Profile Theme is for mini-profiles designed specifically for staff use. This field is completely optional.

Set the type for both of these fields as Drop Down Selection. Click on the (View/Edit) link to add mini-profile names to each of these fields.

If you've just installed this plugin you should have three different mini-profiles already installed by default: Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3. You can add these to your dropdowns to test them out and see the plugin in action.

Click to show example

If you're having trouble getting this plugin to work despite following the instructions in the previous tabs you may want to check that each of your themes meets the prerequisites below in Themes > Layout Templates > Mini-Profile.

First, ensure that opening tag of your mini-profile template includes the $[miniprofile_class] variable in its class. On the default ProBoards theme it should look something like this:

<div class="$[miniprofile_class]">

Next, make sure that the default {foreach} loop for custom fields is present inside your mini-profile. It doesn't need to be visible, so you're free to add it inside a hidden element if you don't plan on displaying it or if it would mess up the appearance of your own custom template.

{foreach $[user.mini_custom_field]} <br /><span class="$[user.mini_custom_field.content_class]">$[user.mini_custom_field.name]: $[user.mini_custom_field.value]</span> {/foreach}

Beyond that you can do whatever you like to the mini-profile template for the most part and it shouldn't negatively impact the plugin.

The following is a list of available variables for use in the HTML section of the mini-profile creator and their definitions. Adding any of these to a mini-profile will generate the content described in its definition in place of the variable so long as the information that variable outputs is visible to you.

To reference your forum's custom profile fields you can use $[user.customfieldname], substituting "customfieldname" with your custom field's name. You'll need to type the name in all lowercase with no spaces and only use characters A-Z and 0-9.

For example, Mini-Profile Theme becomes $[user.miniprofiletheme]. This will output the value of the custom field. In the case of this example, it'll be the name of the mini-profile theme you've chosen in your profile.

IMPORTANT NOTE: These will only work if you followed the steps in the Installation tab of this window on each of your themes. Any themes that do not include the template code specified there will not have these variables replaced in the mini-profile.

$[user]	User's display name link.
$[user.age]	User's age (if visible to you).
$[user.avatar]	User's current avatar.
$[user.badges]	User's list of badges.
$[user.birthday]	User's date of birth (if visible to you).
$[user.color]	Hex color of user's group. If user is not in a group this will return inherit.
$[user.custom_title]	User's custom title.
$[user.email]	User's email (if visible to you).
$[user.gender.image]	Image associated with the gender selected in the user's profile (if available).
$[user.gender.text]	Name of gender selected in the user's profile (if available).
$[user.group.name]	Name of user's current display group.
$[user.group.stars]	Star images associated with user's current display group.
$[user.id]	User's numerical ID.
$[user.instant_messenger]	User's list of instant messengers specified in their profile (if available).
$[user.invisible]	Returns 1 if a user is invisible. More useful for Javascript.
$[user.ip]	User's IP address (if visible to you).
$[user.is_online]	Returns Member is Online if user is currently online.
$[user.is_staff]	Returns 1 if a user is designated as staff. More useful for Javascript.
$[user.last_online]	Timestamp showing when user was last online.
$[user.likes]	Number of likes this user's posts have received.
$[user.location]	Location specified in user's profile.
$[user.name]	User's display name in plain text.
$[user.personal_text]	User's most recent status.
$[user.posts]	User's post count.
$[user.rank.name]	User's current posting rank.
$[user.rank.stars]	Star images associated with user's current posting rank.
$[user.registered_on]	Timestamp showing the date/time the user registered on the forum.
$[user.registered_on_short]	Condensed version of user's registration date.
$[user.social_network]	User's list of social networks specified in their profile (if available).
$[user.username]	Outputs the user's login username in plain text.
$[user.warning.bar]	User's warning bar (if it exists).
$[user.warning.level]	User's current warning level (if visible to you).
$[user.website]	Website specified in user's profile.

You can utilize the $(this) variable in the Javascript component to target the mini-profile <div> element. For example, if you wanted to add a class to the mini-profile you can use:

$(this).addClass('class-name-here');

Profile variables can also be used in the Javascript component in this plugin. In Javascript the value undefined is used to signify that a value doesn't exist for the variable you've specified. With this in mind you can use profile variables in Javascript conditional statements within the plugin similar to how they're used in the actual layout templates section of the admin area.

if(variable) will only run if the variable you specify has a value.
if(!variable) will only run if the variable you specify has no value.

Example 1 (variable has value):

if(user.group){ $(this).find('.group').show(); }

If the user has their group displayed in their profile the above Javascript would make the HTML below visible if you had it hidden with CSS.

<div class="group">$[user.group.name]<br />$[user.group.stars]</div>

Example 2 (variable has no value):

if(!user.gender){ $(this).find('.gender').hide(); }

If the user's gender isn't visible the above Javascript would hide the gender icon generated by the HTML with the "gender" class below.

<div class="gender">$[user.gender.image]</div>
