Poll: Are/Will you going to watch GoT leaked episodes before they air? No (48) Yes (41) 89 total votes Your vote: Are/Will you going to watch GoT leaked episodes before they air? I have talked to like 30 people irl, and they are all watching the leaked episodes. I feel like you should at least allow discussion in spoilers. Or choose the path that is most popular with the viewers. Thanks KadaverBB! As otherwise you are just absolutely killing this thread for a majority of users for half the season, and I don't really know what you achieve with that. I know Teamliquid likes to be all politically correct nowadays, but everyone and my Grandma is watching the leaked episodes, please don't make this dumb rule in this thread just because it's technically illegal or whatever. | ||

But I see no harm in making another thread for the leaked episodes. | ||

You exclude yourself from the weekly discussion after a new episode airs. I'm sry but that was your decision, now you have to deal with it. People here want to avoid spoilers by all means. It's just unavoidable for someone to click a post of yours and spoil the season. If that happens will you blame that person for reading your spoiled post by accident? No, it will be your fault. As I said, a new thread can work for you guys. | ||

I suppose a thread would work, just didn't want GoT to take up even more space in the sidebar, since as it is now, it takes up 2 out of 5 spots in Media and Entertainment. And to be fair, if someone is so paranoid about being exposed to a spoiler, they really shouldn't be reading this thread. How many times have people posted a spoiler here, and someone read it before it was able to be deleted? Anyway, I think having to click one or two spoiler tabs, and then actually reading the paragraph isn't something that someone who is trying to not see spoilers would be afraid of. | ||

I have seen all 4 episodes, and I feel like I shouldn't be excluded from discussing with people.... Even though many others have watched all the episodes as well. because you start the same slippery slope problem that resulted in the blanket ban of even mentioning the books. a lot of people in the thread had a hard time behaving themselves so we can't have nice things. like steveling said, perhaps not everyone is capable of watching the episodes, and it's not their fault you binged half a season. self control is clearly an issue for the thread at large. the average user shouldn't be punished for it. you can't use the argument that 'you exclude people from discussing it for half a season' and seconds later argue 'it's only three episodes we're talking about.' | ||

If you didn't want to be excluded from the discussion, maybe you shouldn't have binged watched multiple episodes that people can't actually legally access? "Many others" may have also watched the leaked episodes, but so far your poll shows that you, and they, aren't the majority. This is the no spoilers thread, if you want spoilers there is much discussion in the spoiler thread regarding the leaked episodes. | ||

This is the no spoilers thread, if you want spoilers there is much discussion in the spoiler thread regarding the leaked episodes. I think what has been emphasized very much, is that the books and show are two completely different beasts this season. So the thread is no longer applicable. And I do not wish to be spoilered about these things (because they don't use spoiler tags there for obvious reasons). Again, anyone can access these episodes, HBO has done virtually nothing to stop people from watching them. You can literally use any search engine, search any combination of words that have "game of thrones season 5 free", etc... And find them swiftly and effortlessly. But anyway, wont keep arguing, I can see why you want to hold you position, I was simply trying to find a compromise that would work for everyone. And my poll is based on 13 results at time of post, so use that with a grain of salt. | ||

I don't remember the thread having problems about it. And unlike anime discussion thread where there's thousands of anime to talk about that some have seen(not even considering the varying amount of episodes that has been seen) and some haven't here we just talk about 1 just 1. but sure to the new thread then! | ||

Pretty likely because its a small crowd of regulars in there. I think the game of thrones thread has a lot more random people coming in who don't necessarily know or care about the spoiler rules. And yes, no matter how big you make that message at the top, there will always be people who miss it. | ||
