Ladytex, I think you might be too late. The spoilers are pretty much everywhere on the web by now.

I think the interest in this show is going to be more about whether the spoilers prove true or not than what happens.

I think that is probably a good idea. It is only fair. A lot of people read just for opinions and do not want to know the spoiler information.

I promise to post any spoiler information in a spoiler thread from here on out.

But, as Car said, it will be hard to stay away from the info altogether.

It might be hard, but I only read info here, and I like to share opinions. If it is agreed to post spoilers only in the spoiler thread, then the rest of the board will not be spoiled for us. I'm sure I'm not the only one that would like to be surprised, and I don't think it's fair that I should have to totally stay out of the survivor section

I understand Ladytex. This may be difficult. Posting spoilers is one thing, but causal references are, unwittingly, made to punctuate ones logic and opinions. It may make more sense to have one thread specifically for non spoiled discussion.

I know last season even the casts threads held references to the spoilers. It is difficult not to do this now that information abounds.

Ladytex, I think you are referring to some of my comments above, I am sorry, it was not my intent to ruin the show for you.
I have also posted bits of spoilers in the bio thread. Again, I am sorry.

It seems as if ever season, there are more and more early spoilers that come out. There is a credible one over at Survivor Sucks, it pretty much lays out the boot order for the whole season. It COULD be wrong, but people are excited about it and it has spread like wildfire to other sites.

I will try to confine my comments regarding this to the ChillOne spoiler thread here from now on. Hope this helps.
PS: I cannot speak for others though. This may be a tiger that we cannot get by the tail at this point.

Ladytex, I asked for the same thing back when Survivor Africa was starting, with no luck. What Fruitbat says is true. Most everyone seems interested in spoiler info and discusses it everywhere in the Survivor area. I decided to stay away from the Africa season threads completely for that reason. But I missed discussing the show at all, so last season I decided to throw in the towel and play in the Survivor threads. I wish I hadn't now, because somehow many of the spoilers are correct and it took away a lot of the fun for me. I'm not sure which choice I'll make this year. So far I've only seen the cast pics and read a few comments from a few posters on their appearances.

I wish we could have a designated area for NON-spoiler discussion of the cast and the show. I prefer surprises, too.

Webkitty, I wasn't referring to your comments, just kinda asking in general before the show started.

Babyruth, Maybe we'll just have to have our own threads with no spoiling allowed. I'm sure we can't be the only ones that prefer the surprises.

Count me in as a non-spoiler, too. I try to avoid them but it's gotten almost impossible. And more than half the fun of the show is discussing it but that's hard to do when you're gun-shy about stumbling across unmarked spoilers.

I've been pretty bored with Survivor but the women vs. men twist kinda intrigues me. Those ladies better do us proud though :) ! I don't want any bad-mood Flo impersonations.

I think it would be easier to start threads and include, NO SPOILER REFERENCE in the title. The word reference is important because posting spoilers and letting them seep into your posting are two different situations. It happens without forethought.

I have succumbed to spoiler talk because the board is the most interesting part of watching these shows, to me, and this is at the heart of most discussions.

I second Bat's suggestion. I read a lot of boards, and honestly, there is not one board that I have been on that is not discussing these spoilers everywhere.

You probably should create a thread...and go directly there to avoid it if you want to discuss it. I think it has gotten to the point that most people do not consider the ChillOne stuff spoilers because it is so well known.

That is probably what I'll do, but I think it stinks that instead of posting in threads marked spoilers, spoilers are posted everywhere. And just because "everyone does it" doesn't make it right.

Well maybe the spoiler will be wrong and you can laugh at all of us.

i am wondering why the list has been out for several days and no 'smoking gun' exposes yet?!! (accent over the last 'e' on exposes, of course!) that's always one of the highlights for me during the reality shows! the driving tickets, the major purchases before the show airs, fights with their cat, floss stuck in their molars, etc...
