I don't think they are that different though. I think we used to discuss common knowledge/official press release/whatever things. BCS is one of those.
So, like I said I'm a blend of 1 and 2.
Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!
We open it up, we talks the talk, we votes, we shuts it down. This thread is to free up Bureaucracy for daily details as we hammer out the Big Issues towards a vote. Open only when a proposal has been made and seconded according to Buffista policy (Which we voted on!). If this thread is closed, hie thee to Bureaucracy instead!

But it's also a change to our current spoiler policy. And changing policy may be a problem.
That is what the proposal is about, though -- changing the spoiler policy.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
It sounds good, Kristen. (It also sounds like there is something besides Spikes Back! and I really don't want to know that.)
That looks like a good definition for position one.
I do believe, however, that there is a contingent of position two who want to expand the definition in general.

Thanks for all the fish.
Trudy makes a good point... I would personally prefer to be unspoiled and not get spoiled by discussion in the NAFDA threads.
But, since I am spoiled, I have no objection to people discussing Trudy's whitefont in the NAFDA threads assuming that this is something that is easily found/not easily avoided and we don't run the risk of spoiling people who do not know.
I do not want the spoiler definition changed to suit my personal spoiler tolerances (because that would include no discussion of promos, and that's just not fair to most of the posters in the NAFDA threads). I am not trying to dictate policy, I am stating my preferences, as are we all.

I think it's more about clarifying spoiler policy than changing it Steph.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Cindy, I understand that the information comes out there. What I'm asking -- is the suggestion for me to verify after the info's out -- to track down those releases? Not particularly helpful. New season page for Angel looks reasonably unspoilery (using the proposed re-def) now that I've found it -- that's what I'd suggest as the resource.

Do you want a change just for this topic (1) or for future discussions (2)?

I don't understand how it's about clarifying, and not changing, unless you're talking the de facto policy, not the de jure one.

Thanks for all the fish.

And the reason that it may be a problem, Steph, is that the spoiler policy may (and I believe it is) be non-changeable until Sept 20th under the current grandfather vote.

I really don't want to know that.
It's going to be in the promo. That's my issue with this discussion. You don't want to know the info today, July 26, but you're okay with knowing it on the date the WB decides to show it to you?
Again, not snide, honestly wondering.
Because the spoiler that you (Trudy) know is one that will not be a surprise. The WB is going to pimp the hell out of it. And yes, they have not done so in a televised fashion as of yet.
But again, why do you not want to know it today, but you'll be okay knowing it on (for instance) September 7th? You'll still know before the show premiere.
