Okay, so, during the summer, I forgot *just* how spoilery the TV Guide episode blurbs are. Again, mea culpa.

So maybe the *general* TV Guide info, but not what's on the show pages?

Dear sweet lord. I have to spam everyone I know with the weeble pie link.

I also vote for "When Come Back Bring Tape"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Should there be an announcement in Press?

I don't know if this is BBB or here, but is there a way to make the NAFDA stand out on NAFDA threads?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That's probably only something a totally spoiled person could answer.

Most of the hardcore spoiled people consider the spoiler lite to be an impossible-to-pin-down zone. So many slippery slopes. So I would recommend that people be aggressive with the white font, that casting spoilers be the only thing that are discussed outright, that people link (really one of the best ways to maintain a balance), and that people note what kind of spoiler they're whitefonting. Plus, a big Caveat Lector at the top should be emphasized.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Yup. That's it exactly.

Our wings are not tired.

It would seem that the definition of lite spoilage is as complex as defining porn. Each person has some things they would like to be spoiled for and stuff not. The whitefonting with big descriptors helps. Yet peoople will still read the whitefont and then complain.

Yeah, and different people come across different things. There's a Certain Large Spoiler that a lot of people have seen by accident in magazines and things, but I never would have stumbled across it, if I hadn't been looking. I don't read those magazines. So, if no one had said anything about this Huge Spoiler You Can't Avoid, I bet I would have just been surprised by it. Instead I went looking for it.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Okay, so I'm bored, and I'm checking the links on the Links Page:

  • "Jengod's Unaired Pilot Recap" gives a 404.
  • "Judgment" is now at >[link]
  • "Psyche's Transcripts" needs to be updated to the new location at >[link]
  • "The Waystation" page appears to no longer exist.
  • "Buffista Book Covers" gives a 404.
  • "'Bad Night' by Switch" cannot be displayed.
  • "'Chaos Theory' by FayJay" needs to be switched to >[link]
  • "Hannigan.com" cannot be displayed.
  • "Encyclopedie Buffy contre les Vampires" brings up a Lycos 404 page in French (non trouveé!)
  • "Two Of A Kind" gives a 404.

And now the recommended fanfic links:

  • "'Acid-Test' by Yahtzee" needs to point to

  • "'Many Loves' by Jessica Walker" needs to point to >[link]
  • "'Phoenix Burning' by Yahtzee" needs to point to >[link]
  • "'Reunion' by Kerry Blackwell" leads to a 404, and I don't know where to find it.
  • "'The Good Fight' by Naomi Chana" needs to point to

  • "'Vivere' by Ruth Hanna" needs to point to >[link]
  • "'You always hurt the ones you love' by Lar" needs to point to

  • "Buffy Fic by RivkaT and Mustang Sally" needs to point to >[link]
  • "Dark City" needs the title changed to "Palimpsest".
  • "Ducks' Fanfic - Specializing in Angel Angst" is gone.
  • "Robert A. Black's Stories" is gone.
  • "Roxanne Longstreet Conrad's Fan Fiction" needs to be changed to "Julie Fortune's Fan Fiction" and should point to >[link]

Phew.
