It's more of JUST AS PLANNED of her claiming she tolf Lancel to get him as drunk as possible. I mean I get drunk out in the woods but thats no guarantee Im going to run into a bear.
If fat man actually wrote it as cersei planned it and not just her being a c**t and claiming credit for a freak natural accident.... uhhh hes a hack.
The book has her claim that she “quadruply fortified the wine”. I’m not a wino so I don’t know what that means but I’m guessing it’s that the alcohol content per volume was significantly higher.
Yeah basically he was drinking like 20% proof wine instead of 5% proof wine. Back in medieval times wine was only able to be fermented to about the same level as beer which explains why the characters can drink so much wine
She just had his wine replaced with extra strong wine so he would be more likely o get hurt, they had other backup plans to have him suffer an “accident” if that failed tho, as she put it in the book “the fool loved it so much he kept drinking skin after skin” so he really did himself in.

This. The implication is they gave him the strongest concentrated wine they could find.
It's well known that the upper classes all throughout history were notorious fetishists of all types, predominantly feet, of course they preferred wine
She hated his ass so when he was hunting she sent the twink with the extra strong stuff just to try and get him to hurt himself. Robert was basically a guy who peaked in high school so he would try and do dumb shit he wasn't cut out for anymore already, so she was just sweetening the pot basically. It wasn't like she was planning on that occasion in particular just as a general way to get him killed. At least that's how I saw it.
King Robert is a simple man. When’s he horny, he fricks. When he’s bored, he drinks. He needs to use the privy, he’s shits and pisses. When he’s hungry, he eats. When he’s agitated, he kills. All Jaime Lannister was ever recorded to hear was his king shitting, and fricking, and eating and drinking. He does nothing but satisfy his every impulse
This. Robert wasn't a man who enjoyed fakery. Lol look how depressed and angry he gets at the notion they'd absolutely let him win the melee simply because he was the king.
Yes my lord. You see, I was a bastard in a sense. My mother was raped by a Lannister shortly before battle and he died. And my mother died in childbirth. My uncle, Tyrion Lannister, named me Incel Lannister and has been my guardian ever since
more boar your grace?
Boar wine, boar grace?
It's 'more swine, your grace?' you fricks
am i completely misremembering or was there some implication that Cersei somehow planned the boar incident?

I didn't get that impression from the first 3 books.

You can only ferment alcohol max 16% though

yes, they got the boar drunk on wine
She fricked Lancel to ensure it happened
It was Cersei's doing insomuch she made sure Lancel got Robert so drunk that he'd something stupid and get himself killed.
Fairly sure he was drugged to make him slower
what kind of man drinks wine? it's a woman's drink
Nobility from Antiquity to the 1900s

Slaves who build pyramids got some of their wage as beer while higher class drank wine. Makes you think.

Robert didn’t peak and do dumb shit, he’s literally me. Whenever he gets frustrated he wants to go out and hunt and kill some stuff to blow off steam
