Agreed. While I'd prefer to have this thread be an anything-goes-post-whatever-you've-heard area, it sounds like most of the whitefont workarounds would be more onerous than whitefont itself, and likely result in lots of accidental spoilage until people got used to the new method.
Gunn: Well, how horrible is this thing? Lorne: I haven't read the Book of Revelations lately, but if I was searching for adjectives, I'd probably start there.
'Hell Bound'
Spoilers 3: First Mutant Enemy, Now the World
[NAFDA] Spoilers for any and all currently running TV shows. All hardcore spoilage, all the time. No white font.

Up with the sun
I've had a brainstorm-y idea that spoilers could fairly easily be placed "inside" a small button, so that people who wanted to read them would have to push the button and read it in a message box.
I appreciate and respect all your work, but that sounds like a major pain to use.
Plus, how would it work with threadsucking?

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

No difference. Anyway, I think the idea got through my tinfoil hat somehow. Can you still buy lead foil?

Lost - previous spoiler discussion
what do you all think about the notion that not all the people we've seen were on the plane. I think this can only refer to Hurley. What might this mean?

LN, Lost:
We have seen Jack's Dad.
Does that count?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
LN (is it okay to call you that?) (also, those are my initials, so I keep wanting to respond when people post to you),
I have heard the same thing, though I wouldn't have chosen Hurley. Is he the only one we haven't seen on the plane in the crash scenes? Maybe it was wish fulfilment, and Shannon wished Boone there, or Sun wished Jin there.
That would suck.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Gus, nope that does not count. It refers to one of the 14.
Lee, oh yeah, LN works. more below:
Hurley is the only one we haven't seen on the plane and who isn't paired (e.g. Walt/Michael) - and is one of the few who doesn't have an ep planned (through 13 or 14).
He is also nosey as fuck and seems to have had a one on one conversation with the other 13.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Huh -- according to TV Tome, you're right about Hurley not having his own episode , at least not in the first 10 eps. Synopses, titles, and writers for the first half of the season are here, btw.
Looking very very very much forward to ep 9.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Actually, courtesy of Fury, don't we have info past ep 10?
Let me find my LJ post...

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Okay, here's a quote from fanforum which is supposed to be from Fury (this is edited):
I think much has been spoiled already about such things, but I'll tell you next week's ep. focuses on Sun and Jin (but from Sun's POV); Ep. 7 is Charlie (where we get to see a little of Drive Shaft); Eight is a corker with Sawyer; Nine is Sayid (my next one); Ten is Claire; Eleven revisits more of Jack's story; Twelve, more of Kate's; Thirteen is Boone and Shannon (from Boone's POV); and Fourteen is Michael and Walt (from both's POV)... How's that for spoilage?
