I understand Plei, I guess I am a little more hardcore than most. Most weeks I struggle to keep my purchases to 10-15 titles a week, never mind trades and such.
Mal: Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? Zoe: Big damn heroes, sir.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
The spoiler policy is one week. At least that's what's in the description of the thread.

I seem to remember that in the WX thread it was just wait until the weekend following release.

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

But that doesn't cover stuff that's not out yet. Is it okay if I start a discussion in whitefont about that?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I'm not entirely sure why this should be an issue. Discussion of things that haven't even come out yet are clearly spoilers; they're what the term "spoiler" was devised for. I always thought it was kind of implied.
(Are you feeling better, by the way?)

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
P-C, I think the issue isn't whether things-yet-to-be-released should be whitefonted; it's whether they should be allowed in the thread at all.
Personally, I'm all for it -- and I'll note that we've done it before, with the new Robin's identity -- but some people are more spoiler-sensitive than I.

Yeah, what amych said. I read some Batverse stuff that I thought people might be interested in, but in a show thread, for instance, that'd be verboten in any font.
As for feeling better, I thought I was. Being upright is sapping my conviction. Pfft.

I'm cool with letting spoilery stuff in the thread, but that's because I've been massively spoiled for stuff I haven't had time to read but need to know... er. I guess I'm a spoiler ho now, after being a spoiler-virgin-on-tape-delay for so long.
And since I'm here, "Starcrossed" kicked so much ass that I'm going to pre-order the DVD.
Also, I'm in the middle of reading Young Justice: Sins of Youth and I've been laughing my fool head off.

There's laughing, and there are moments when I just want to feed Batman soup.

Excellent! Early delivery is better.

I may have to seize the cat.

Yes. I may even get it this very evening.
