View Full Version : Method to contain 27 spoilers

Quite a few people, incuding myself, aren't going to watch episode 27 until the hardsub comes out.
Back when GL was just in one thread, it was impossible to view the thread without reading spoilers or viewing spoiler images in peoples avatars and signatures as soon as the RAW came out.
I for one absolutely do not want to see any spoilers regarding episode 27 until the [BSS-Anon] hardsub comes out. I even considered staying off of 4chan and Naruto Forums completely (due to avatars and sigs) so as to not be spoiled by anything.
Now that we have a subforum for GL, it might be easier to contain spoilers. Like making a thread exclusive for discussing episode 27, where no spoilers leave the thread until the [BSS-Anon] hardsub comes out. [B]This INCLUDES avatars and signatures. This is similar to how the Konoha Telegramsa section works for the latest naruto manga chapter releases.
Could we consider doing this please? It would be very courteous. Thank you.
I'm gonna have to avoid the Blender by that time :(

I cannot wait for this episode!! I'll try and avoid being spoiled but yeah..dunno if i'll manage.

The main thing I'm worried about is seeing spoiler pics in avatars and signatures. This includes ANY picture from episode 27. I'd definately stay out of threads marked with spoilers, but avatars and signatures are definately a problem.
Oh wait, Dave is banned. That means 50% less spoilers of ep. 27 :iria
And yeah, you'd have to disable avatars and sigs for that time.

I'll probably just do that. Even if rules about avatars and signatures where to be enforced, the risk of seeing spoilers is just too great.

From the RAW to the hardsubs, how long does it take?

You think we'll be getting spoiler pics in avatars and sigs that quickly? How long do the subs take to come out usually?

Heres what I do. For the last few episodes, I've managed to restrain myself and wait for the subbed version :nod. If you're that worried about sigs and avatars, you can manually turn them off by going to User Cp. Then, just wait for a while and check the download thread. Nonetheless, I really like this idea. It'll make it a lot easier to avoid being spoiled on the greatest thing ever :nod
hard subs are usually available monday european time
soft subs maybe earlier

In all seriousness, i'm all for two spoiler and non-spoiler discussions of the Finale. Also, being able to come onto Narutofan, clicking on one thread and finding ALL the links to Episode 27 would be a godsend, so lets make that thread as well.
Sigs and Avys, well, i'll restrain myself, but as soon as the .ass is out, i'll be using some screenshots. I'll deliberately try to avoid major spoilers though, i'll just be using cool pictures.

In all seriousness, why don't people just avoid the forums for that amount of time? If spoilers are that serious to people. I personally can't stand being spoiled at all. I stop myself from watching the previews at the end of each episode. I'm just going to avoid the forums altogether until the episode comes out subbed.
I'll only watch the hardsubs and i won't come to the TTGL threads until i see it. Period.

Really. I find watching the Raw and then Watching the subs later equally enjoyable and I like joining in the discussion early, however it seems I'm going to be alone in that area.

I may have to just go out tomorrow night to resist the temptation. That way when I wake up on Sunday the raw will be avaliable.
Alright, just the RAW then.

the major difficulty will be the people posting on the "normal" thread and who ain't read this thread. can it be possible to close the thread and open it again after the raw or subbed version will be released to avoid unpleasant surpises? if someone wnter the super spoiler thread it is on its own risk :ninja

I propose that the people who want to watch the raw have a raw watching party on MSN and here at the same time to watch the raw together. Those who dont wanna get spoiled,can wait till Sunday or Monday. Or disable avatrs and sigs.

If you don't know Japanese, watching raws are like watching "half episodes"; you don't get the whole experience. For the epicness of 27, I for one want to go all out to enjoy this final episode and not waste the surprise on something I half understand.
Not wanting to waste the surprise on the raw has NOTHING to do with being any less of a die-hard TTGL fan.

Watching it without subs is pointless. The die-hard fans watch it with subs, the ones who want to join in the discussion party without understanding the dialogue are lames.

What The Captain said.
Are you trying to tell me that you're trying to watch the raw episodes for the dialogue and to understand what's going on? You have that as a priority over the GAR action fightscenes that's right infront of you? Even those just give you more than enough to understand what's going on.
And this is the final episode, I expect less talking, and more fighting. This series has to go out with a bang, after all. All you will probably miss or not is an epic and memorable speech from someone, and then that's it. Even if you miss that out I'm sure that person will be doing something so manly that you'll understand and not care if that person said something or not.
Not wanting to waste the surprise on the raw has NOTHING to do with being any less of a die-hard TTGL fan.
Please don't put words in my mouth. I never said anything about you being less of a fan if you don't watch the raw tomorrow.

Probably in the Blender as usual. So we can spam how much we want. XD
It would probably get moved to the blender anyway what with all the caps-lock yelling and stuff. I predict 300 posts in 30 minutes this time.

Thats what you where implying by bringing up die-hard fans.
Watching it just for the action is not an excuse. You still only get half the experiece. I don't care what you guys do but I'm gonna watch it with subs.

Have you ever tried it?
Honestly, watching Raw's has made me learn that I actually have learned enough Japanese just by watching subs to get the general gist of what's being said anyway. Given, of course, that anything said in complex dialog is nonsensical to me but it's not like it will spoil me if I don't know what they're saying in the first place.
As I said, Watching the raw then watching the subs just means I get twice the reasons the watch the episode.

No, that's what you feel I was implying by bringing up die-hard fans.
I was merely wondering where are the people that usually looks at the screenshots and watching the raws. I was just looking for them.
I know watching it for the action isn't an excuse. It's the REASON for watching. We watch the raw for the action, I'd say. We do it while trying to pick up the story, too. If we get some of it, good. If we get most of it, great. If we get all of it, then freaking superlative. We get a BRILLIANT experience eitherway. When we watch the subs after it's awesome too, for the former two cases. Not once did I feel bummed after watching the raw. And as far as I know none of the other Brigade members, either.
Anyway, I'm not discussing this anymore. I hate having to disagree with someone that has the same likes as I do. Do as you please, I wasn't even trying to force you to watch in the first place.

Actually, people that don't want to be spoiled should not visit the external TTGL thread and just discuss around here. I like to discuss thing over there and will still go over there. You can come here and discuss anything you want in here. That is just what I plan to do! The spoiler party with images from 2chan should be done here instead than in the blender though. this thread is just for a month and I want important info and comments to stay in the permanent thread.

I refuse to believe that anyone who doesn't have a suffient grasp of the japanese language as to be near fluent should watch this episode raw :/
whats the point in only getting half of the info in there? Surely it doesn't cost you much to wait an extra day and then understand the whole thing in one go.
D:

that said anyone who does watch the raw and spoils someone else will get a ban, be that in sigs, avs or in a thread posting outside of tags where it should be tagged.
I'll be trying to array a few things to give someone for those who want to look at screencaps and watch the raw to discuss without getting in the way of everyone else xD

thank goodness I don't have signature or avatars, I never felt the need for being the first to have a nice signature or avatar. I can understand how some people got annoyed because people made signatures and avatar that ACTUALLy did spoil things just for the sake of being the first.
Denizen
09-29-2007, 09:17 AM
Whether it's in the Blender or not, there should definitely be a thread for screencaps and other episode spoilers
Entitle it: "G-L Episode 26 screencap thread (BIG SPOILERS)" or something similar.
However, it's not fair to completely get rid of any spoilerish material when it can be easily hidden.
Good tip for screenshot thread though - Please can posters turn off their sigs whenever they post in it. Easier to read then.
_ _ _
Anyways, regarding sigs and spoilers.
I'll refrain myself from any major spoilers, but as soon as the .ass is out, i'll be taking some cool pictures and using them.
If you're THAT worried about some moron spoiling everything (could easily happen, despite warnings), then turn off sigs and avatars just to be sure.

That is what I'm trying to understand. I love TTGL as much as the next man in here, even more, but I'm not going to sit here and the FINAL EPISODE OF TTGL in a language I don't understand.
