Wildbow has mentioned the timeskip specifically as something he wishes he hadn't done.

  Wildbow didn't state that. In fact, he's compared GRRM's issues with later GoT books to the fact that GRRM needed but ultimately decided against/was forced to avoid a timeskip. Wildbow stated that the timeskip suffered for poor execution and a lot of IRL stuff that was going on at the time (including a semi-forced 2 week break from all internet/computer stuff mid-arc), and he intends to rewrite it and cover different bases for the published final version.

    Hey, since bumping into this thread (have read much of HPMOR) I decided to check out Worm and it's excellent - have read ~1000 pages (out of around 10K on my device), half on the site and half on, for convenience's sake, an ebook version I found floating around. I'll be donating in a second here, but I really would rather (for whatever reason) have made it a transaction and bought a copy in some legit epub or mobi form from you, the author. It's a bit late to hope for a response, but I'm somewhere around 7.08 - should I wait for a revision or just read on and revise my opinion later? At any rate thanks for writing and I hope you get the book deal you very richly deserve.
