Hamsterlady | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 08:03 pm     Well Sun, for what's it worth, I posted earlier in this thread (during the show last week) wondering why there were 2 spoiler threads for the same night and was promptly told that it was OK because it was a Sandra speculation thread with the word **spoiler** in it so it wouldn't give anything away. I don't know. I could understand how a person could see the thread title and get upset tonight since the thread was still at the top. But glad you've come back and calmed down.

Azriel | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 08:07 pm     I'm kind of confused. It's marked spoiler so if you don't want to be spoiled, then you don't read it. What difference does it make if we have 20 threads with spoilers in them if they are all clearly marked spoiler? |
Hamsterlady | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 08:10 pm     Az, I meant how a person could be looking for tonight's spoiler thread and be upset when they saw this spoiler thread with Sandra's name in it and 'think' that it had to do with tonight's show. That's what I meant. I should have made myself clearer about that...LOL About concerning tonight's show is what I meant. |
Allietex | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 08:39 pm     I guess it just shows we should always read the title and the date before we start to read a new thread. |
Sunrisedd | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 09:04 pm     Sun(opps)...some people just like to get upset over little things. |
Seamonkey | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 09:20 pm     It wasn't a spoiler about final show at all. |
Moderator | Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 09:55 pm     Just wanted to clear up board policy about Survivor spoilers (and The Amazing Race): 1). We do not prevent spoilers from the shows. In other words, if it is Thursday night and the show has aired on the east coast, people are free to post anywhere in the Survivor area about what happened on that show without any problems. This thread was an example of that. It was listed as "spoiler" as a courtesy to those who hadn't seen the show on Thursday to let them know not to open it up unless they wanted to be spoiled about what happened on the show. That was a courtesy, and not a requirement. 2). The threads with "spoilers" in red in the title are threads designed to discuss whatever outside information to guess who wins and who is voted off. That is through the use of information not obtained from the shows. That is the information that is absolutely restricted outside that specified area. With a couple of minor exceptions, people have done a great job this year of respecting people not wanting to be spoiled. 3). We do remove spoilers on show nights from other parts of the board until a reasonable time has passed. There is no set limit, but we will remove them when/if we find them the night of the show. We at least want to give a fair chance to the west coasters waiting for the show to air. We are not perfect and we will not police every thread for spoilers, we just ask everyone to be respectful. Overall, it is strongly suggested that if you do not want to know what happens on these shows, do not come to TVCH - or really anywhere online - until after you have watched it in your viewing area or until you have viewed your tape/TIVO. |

Tobor7 | Monday, December 15, 2003 - 12:26 am     I find that with shows that have LIVE outcomes (like Survivor) that I have to even be very careful about what news shows I watch. Like tonight... I recorded Survivor and went out to dinner. I was careful not to listen to the radio or watch ANY news before I watched the show. And of course didn't visit ANY web sites. In fact, I didn't even check my phone messages for fear that someone called me with a "can you believe she won?!?!" LOL If you want to watch the show late, it really is up to the viewer to take responsibility to protect the suspense. |
Hermione69 | Monday, December 15, 2003 - 06:31 am     Well, I just came in here to say that I am happy Sandra won. She did a brilliant job getting to the end without alienating anyone! Her win is satisfying and well-deserved and I am so happy for her! What a great season this was! I loved the mix of people and the flipflopping and the hard game-playing. It was awesome! |
Serate | Monday, December 15, 2003 - 11:42 am     "If you want to watch the show late, it really is up to the viewer to take responsibility to protect the suspense." I totally agree! We had company in from out of state and I was unable to watch. By the time our company left it was WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY late [I just moved to Eastern Time Zone from Central and can't get used to it!] so I couldn't watch last night. When I got up this morning, I turned the VCR on before the TV and changed the channel to Cartoon Network, THEN turned my TV on. Otherwise I was afraid I'd hear who won. WAY TO GO SANDRA! |
Sunshyne4u | Monday, December 15, 2003 - 02:32 pm     ** Azriel Sunday, December 14, 2003 - 08:11 pm -------------------------------------------------- I'm kind of confused. It's marked spoiler so if you don't want to be spoiled, then you don't read it. AZRIEL>>>>>>DONT READ THIS POST>>>>>>I am SPOILING it......Dont read this..... ******** Let me make this clear......If it is marked SPOILER about SANDRA.....and I have to READ the TITLE then it is Too late!! (Killing myself laughing!) ah, alls well that ends well. I am glad some people actually could see how I was confused. THX. THANK YOU MODERATORS for your clearly written post. **** |
Rslover | Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - 08:00 am     Sandra was on David Letterman last night. She is too cute. She actually called Jon scum. She also admitted that she was terrible at the challenges. Her husband told her she wouldn't last a day out there. She was herself, as she always is. That's why we like her so much. |
Seamonkey | Wednesday, December 17, 2003 - 11:08 pm     Scum of the earth was the phrase Sandra had for Jon. Dave declared it was good to see a "nice, normal" person from Survivor. |
Serate | Thursday, December 18, 2003 - 04:29 am     She was also on Regis & Kelly yesterday, and got to talk more than on Letterman. They asked her if she ever liked Jon and she said NO I didn't like him from the beginning. |
Maris | Thursday, December 18, 2003 - 06:02 am     Sandra is going to be on a show now called Living it up on channel 2. |
Fruitbat | Thursday, December 18, 2003 - 06:18 am     Is that a local show in your area? Network, cable? |
Texannie | Thursday, December 18, 2003 - 06:19 am     It's syndicated. It's with Jack Ford and Allison Wentworth. |
Fruitbat | Thursday, December 18, 2003 - 06:32 am     Thanks. I may have missed her. |
Maris | Thursday, December 18, 2003 - 06:42 am     She was funny. Said she felt sorry for Lil up until Rupert and Christa got booted then she would wake up every morning and just cuss her out. She expected jon to take her to the final two but wasn't sure on Lil. Said she never expected Lil to win the final immunity until Lil and Jon started fighting on the raft. She said that was when she knew that if Lil won that Lil would take her as well. Said final immunity challenge lasted hours but she lost her balance after fifteen minutes. Her only plan is to go on a cruise and would like to buy a house but with her husband in the military she cant buy a house now because they move around so much. |
Texasdeb | Friday, December 19, 2003 - 04:49 pm     I'm sooooo happy that finally this season I think a deserving person I was rooting for actually won. I see Sandra staying in touch with Rupert, Christa, & prob. Lil. If I was ever in the Survivor situation, I would want a bond like her, Rup., & Chri. had. |
