Wait, so this is voting for the Buffy & Angel combo-thread, or is it voting on spoiler policy for the Boxed Set II thread?

Buffy and Angel.
I'm hoping we can consense the spoiler policy.
Yeah, those Buffy and Angel spoilers are getting out of hand.

Ok, so, about spoilers.
My thought is that, in this particular case, dealing with 2 different classes of spoilers for 3 shows is going to be too big a PitA to be worthwhile.
I know that it's problematic for the West Coast, but IMO, the best option is blackfont when aired on the East Coast.
I watch Tivo delayed much of the time so it won't hit me. Just means that the thread pretty much becomes a no-fly zone for everyone but the east coasters for most of Friday night since the shows are back to back.
Not to complicate things, but why not go back to the "white-font for two weeks" rule that was used to discuss Angel in the NAFDA Buffy thread and vice versa? Substitute any "x length of time" that seems appropriate.
I don't have an investment, because I'm not spoiler averse, but thought I would throw it out there since I hadn't seen anyone propose it yet.
Two weeks is an awfully long time. I'd prefer it to be until after the show airs on the west coast.
Two weeks is an awfully long time.
That's why I added the proviso about substituting any appropriate time. I just remember it was two weeks in the Buffy/Angel threads. Or was it a week? Whatever. It was an increment of weeks, I'm pretty sure of that.
It was a week, I think. But it's different in that you still had the Buffy thread to talk about Buffy and the Angel thread to talk about Angel. With Box Set, there's no equivilent.
