Spoilers Inside!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

We're already in the top 50 sites returned by Google for wonderfalls spoilers. Mentioning the show in the slug isn't going to change that much.

But are we, I still don't know, trying to hide from people at our front page for other reasons, or from searchers?

I can't speak for anyone else but I'm hiding from people.

I understand that urge, but think it's going to be more trouble than anything else. I mean, we're still announcing the thread in Press, right? In Minearverse?

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi

Yes, it will -- part of what Google indexes on is proximity of words.

I know -- but not from people, which was Kristen's contention.

Also, I stand by the idea that we're not going to move up too many spots if Wonderfalls is in the slug -- the word spoilers isn't, after all.

Although in the lightbulb thread "Lovesick, my Ass" seems to be an early favorite for thread title.

(I know - premature. But it seems pretty certain to pass.)

Mostly it's the slug being discussed, Gar, not the title, AFAICT.

I know it's a pipe dream.
