Frankly, I'd be fine with it staying in the main thread in whitefont.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
"The Message", "Heart of Gold" or "Objects In Space" in the spoiler thread?
So, does this mean no discussing of them ANYWHERE until the British see them? Because that's not right.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Actually, I'd be fine with it being in the main thread, without whitefont. I wasn't around from the beginning, but the spoiler policy seems like it should put the emphasis on the "unaired" part, not the "US" part -- I'm guessing the US-y-ness of the rule is because it was written when everything was airing here first.
As far as I'm concerned, the eps are airing, and so are current.

That notion came up some time ago, and if I recall correctly there were objections. But I have none.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I agree they should stay in the main thread, but I'd also agree to whitefont until UK airs all three.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I hate whitefont, and won't be able to participate.
Huh?
Oh.
Apparently, it's not all about me.
Whatever works best for the UKers.
Victor, I think it goes one week at a time. The UKers get The Message, and then it's wide open for discussion in Spoilers. And not until.

OiS can still be discussed in the main thread. I'm suggesting no discussing The Message for one week and HoG for two weeks (or vice-versa, but I think I've got the order right).
As a compromise, how about white-fonting discussion of those two eps in the Spoiler thread until the UK airs them? I like that better than discussing in the main thread with whitefont until the DVDs come out, since it's a shorter-term whitefont.

I'm confused. I thought we had decided that it couldn't be discussed in the main thread until the DVDs are released.

Objects in Space aired.

Well, that would explain my confusion. I've lost episodes in my brain.
