  :hello2: Hello and welcome to RFF's The Amazing Race Australia (TARAus) Forum!

We have quite a unique situation with TARaus on this forum, in that only a small number of our Members have access to the live Seven broadcast, and the rest must wait for "delayed coverage" of episodes on the Internet.

To try and cater for all our Members who share the TARaus love, :luvya: we need a few simple rules to try and prevent people from accidentally getting spoiled:

 
* There will be a pinned weekly episode thread started by one of us each week. This thread will ALSO be open for discussion of the show as it airs based on Sydney time. Our Oceania viewers can post freely here immediately, and those of us who cannot see the show immediately can enter at our own risk after Mondays 0600 EST, realizing that there WILL be both contestant and location spoilers.
* Please discuss the most recent episode ONLY in the pinned episode thread until 12 MN each Wed Sydney  time= Wed 10AM EST for those of us in the US, which will give those of us not in Australia 48+ hours to find and watch the show. This means that NO information about the outcome of each weekly show should be posted anywhere on the forum except here, including NO posts related to outcome in the media or contestant threads during that time.  Knowing who won the leg and who is eliminated is the info we most want to protect until the show can be seen by all of us. Feel free to put any media, etc in the episode thread, and I will move it later on.
* However, many of us will want to begin to work right away on the next location spoiler, and many of our locations have already been spoiled. So, we will open the next episode thread after the show airs and put any previews and preview screencaps there. I am open to changing this if need be, so let me know! But remain aware that this MAY also contain spoilers until You have seen the episodes!
* As always, any other race spoilers not related to the already aired show outcomes, may be discussed freely in the general Spoiler thread at any time.   



              You can also use the spoiler tags if you are unsure: [/list]
--- Code: ---[spoiler] data here[/spoiler]
--- End code ---

* Any links or requests about how to watch the show should be placed only in the LINK thread, 

* Confused about the times? This is a great reference: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/

We hope you have fun posting here. If you have any questions, or are unsure about anything, please feel free to contact me by PM here, or at the email address in my profile.

 Thanks everyone! This looks like a great season!

PLEASE be careful that these spoilers are placed ONLY in the episode threads until those of us outside Oz have a chance to watch!! Thanks!

Bringing this back...am not sure the times are still right, so please correct me if not?

ANd the big thing is...no spoilers anywhere except the LIVE thread and the EPISODE thread until 48+ hours after the show has aired...to keep us innocents unspoiled until we too can watch!

Thanks everyone!

Dånooky:
What about the thread for discussion of spoilers?

georgiapeach:
Any SPOILER thread is fine for things ouside that week, but would like things related to the week's episode to stay in the appropriate episode thread. That way people can avoid the week's outcome until they have seen the ep, and feel fairly safe elsewhere. It may not be perfect, but it worked well all thru TARA, so would like us to try anyway!
