[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Regarding game spoilers, maybe the OP of this thread could ask Jeff to add "(No Game Spoilers)" to the thread title to make clear that people can talk about aired episodes here but not speculative game spoilers, and if people want to create a thread with game spoilers they can. That's how we used to handle it on Television Without Pity when I used to post there about television shows, so that people who just wanted to watch and discuss a show as it aired could do so without being spoiled by people talking about source material, casting news, and other external information.[/quote]

I really don't understand how game spoilers is different than Game of Thrones, HOTD, Fleishman series, or any other movie/show based on a book.  Plus I think I am the only one who thinks Bill is alive based on the game so it's not even a spoiler, it's just a theory.  I asked Jeff to add in WITH game spoilers, so if you all want to start a thread with no game info in it, you may.  - OP.  [/quote]

I agree with you, OP. The theory about Bill being alive wasn't a spoiler, it was just a theory based off the episode. It was particularly NOT a spoiler because (to everyone except you apparently  :wink: ) it was clear that the show deviated from the game in that episode, so any inside info based on game knowledge would have been inaccurate for that particular plot point. I think discussion about how the show paralleled or deviated from the game UP TO THE POINT PORTRAYED IN THE CURRENT EPISODE is fair game episode discussion. Difference between saying "that scene in this week's episode is similar/different from the scene in the game because..." and theories from there, versus saying "when the characters do this thing in a future episode that I'll know they did because it happened in the game..."[/quote]

haha thanks, and I'm probably wrong so it wasn't a spoiler.  I don't remember the game, husband played it a while ago, and I had my eyes closed for most of it.  Anyways, I asked Jeff to change the title so PPs can stop complaining.  - OP[/quote]
