Midnight, the 21st East Coast time?
That sounds good to me.
Lorne: Take care of yourself and ah, make sure fluffy is getting enough love. Gunn: Did he have anything? Fred: No. And who's fluffy? Are you fluffy? Gunn: He called me fluffy? Fred: He said make sure…wait. You don't think he was referring to anything of mine that's fluffy, do you? Because that would just be inappropriate.

When I expressed my contentment with discussing HP7 in the Book Club thread, I didn't think that meant we were going to open it up for spoilers early. The rest of the internet is making me curmudgeonly about spoilers.

What ita said. Given that we're bypassing our voting procedures on this one, I think it's important that we tread carefully and have a true consensus. Opening Bookclub Friday night at midnight EDT, would seem to be a good compromise on which we can all agree.

Sounds like a good plan.

Why worry about spoiler talk if we don't open a thread that allows spoilers before the book is available? I'd like to talk about what I've heard now.

FTR, I was consensing about opening the thread when the book was actually out. But mainly I'm posting content so that I can add,
OTOH, there's a good chance this conversation will last past midnight Friday at which it will be a moot point anyway, right?

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

Exactly why we need to obsess over opening, unless I don't get your meaning.

Why don't you announce in Literary that you'll be talking about HP spoilers in Spoilers?

Hold up! I'm with Jessica on this:
I don't think spoilers should be put anywhere people might already be subscribed to without a vote.

Yeah, I'd think people not wanting to be spoiled for a book might be surprised to find themselves spoiled for one in the TV spoilers thread.
