TAR 18 Ep 6 "I Feel Like a Monkey in a Circus Parade" (Kolkata, India)
Jobby:
I'm very pissed about this right now, actually.. mswood.. i think we need a discussion about this on our games.
I absolutely respect peach's decision and agree with her that RFF shouldn't SPOIL the ENTIRE show. Kudos to peach for minimizing damage, at least to some extent.

Spoiling the show is what we do.
Now, I agree that this is certainly a different scenario because there is no way CBS would want to give away who was eliminated.
But, almost the entirety of episode one was spoiled. Does the fact that it was not found on twitter change the fact that its something that we know about the episode before we should? If people don't want to end up spoiled, they should know not to wander into the spoiler section, simple.
Jobby:
Yea i understand the circumstances. Still reviewing and thinking about it. :(
Zvarri:
I hope these spoilers are just a one time thing. I hope CBS won't spoil the next episodes.

I understand as well, Coutzy. And that episode was the result of a lot of people's hard work getting spoilers. It was info obtained fair and square.
But this is a clear mistake on CBS's part...someone screwed up. And they have already done their best to fix it by taking down the links from the CBS site.
So we are not going to profit on their mistake.
This is a judgement call. TL and I have discussed it, and I am leaving the links to the vids removed, but will leave the commentary on what was seen up.
I don't want this to turn into a big "ethics of spoilers" discussion. But I will say again that I love the show more than the spoilers, and will never do anything to deliberately hurt it. Honest spoilers excepted, of course, as those ADD to and don't detract from the show, as we all know. :tup:
But these aren't "honest", and I don't want us to participate in continuing a mistake.
It is the same reason I choose not to do boot lists, and never intentionally spoil the final 3. Some things are too much.
Sorry if you all feel differently, I understand your position as well, just hope you can appreciate mine.
I will review the games and let mswood and Joab know what questions may have an unfair advantage from those who saw the vids.
