This thread is NAFDA. No need to whitefont.
NAFDA for Tim's shows or for any show that pops up here? Is Tim attached to Terminator?
I'm not bitching, I'm just trying to clarify.

[NAFDA] "There will be an occasional happy, so that it might be crushed under the boot of the writer." From Zorro to Angel (including Wonderfalls, The Inside and Drive), this is where Buffistas come to anoint themselves in the bloodbath.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I think NAFDA applies to all shows, period. Tim is not attached to SCC.

As a spoiler-phobe, I like whitefonting on the side of caution, but that's just me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If the thread is NAFDA for all shows, there is no side of caution.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I've been (re-)thinking about this. We had that cross-thread rule with Buffy and Angel where, even though both were NAFDA, we whitefonted about one show in the other's thread. Maybe we should do the same here? So for SCC there'd be no whitefont in Boxed Set, but whitefont in other NAFDA threads. Does that seem fair?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
I thought the point of NAFDA was that you were able to freely discuss cross topic shows. That was specifically important in Buffy/Angel crossover issues, but the premise holds up here. That's why we have different threads, some of which are NAFDA and some of which, like Boxed Set, have their own specific whitefont rules.
eta: That also the reason for marking as NAFDA was to alert spoilerphobes where they should be alert.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
As usual, with this thread, it doesn't really make any sense to me that the show be discussed in here, and if I were behind on SCC, I'd be pretty grumpy to get spoiled for it. But I'm not, so it's luckily moot.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Does that seem fair?
Seems fair to me. I'm trying to figure out how all the SCC talk ended up here, when it's a bit off topic. Not that I much care, as I'm not watching the show yet.

I'm not cautious about violating thread rules. I'm cautious about spoiling someone who does not want to be spoiled.
