Dragonmount reported from a recent signing the following Q&A:
Q: "Were you surprised when you found out who killed Asmodean?"
A: "Brandon had been a fan for a long time before he got to find out who killed Asmodean. He said that he had heard arguments for every possible suspect, including the really crazy ones like Tam. So when he found out the real answer, he wasn’t shocked. His reaction was more 'Oh, those guys were right'. He said that the clues are there, but he never would have figured it out himself."
This surprise ("Oh, those guys were right" ) clearly speaks against the idea that the "obvious" suspect of the majority of the WoT fans, Graendal, killed Asmo. Of course, Graendal's death already made it most unlikely.
And btw, Tam is apparently also excluded..

Another blow to the Graendaldunnit-theory

I don't see any reason the Graendal theory is wrong from that.

He has stated that they will put the mystery to rest in the final books...

I actually figured a way that this could come up quite naturally without Graendal

RJ said it will probably revealed in the killer's PoV

And Brandon said Harriet gave him the freedom to tell the story as he wishes.

We (you, me & RJ) agree that it would be best to reveal it in the killer's PoV

I often explained it, because many don't seem to get it

So maybe Graendal didn't care enough about Asmodean, either.

Neither Graendal nor Slayer mention killing Asmo...

It seems you think I don't read any posts and you certainly haven't read this board much.

If Graendal's name is mentioned, then "Graendal" is in the book. *NM*

BS just said that Graendal will be mentioned, not appear as a character in ToM. *NM*

BS never would have figured it out himself that Graendal did it? *NM*

I don't agree with this interpretation at all - your grasping for straws...

Ok, I will stay alert for further blows to Graendaldunnit, if this didn't already convince you! *NM*
