I know policing this would be hard but it would be real fun.

Plus with the extreme fangirling and fanfiction written in so many posts on the board it made the little sleuthing an uphill task.

Much as I love to know the ending I prefer when it is figured out by factual sleuthing and not from factual spoilers.

Just my 2 cents and perhaps I need to [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.].

No need to hide, I would love a separate sleuthing thread so that we can dissect SC's to our hearts content.

No need to hide, I agree! Unfortunately we don't have any SCs to slueth and what we did have we have either tried to or have figured out who and where they take place for the finale.

OK I wont [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] .

But analyzing SCs is not the only thing worth talking about without the posters being swayed towards a known ending.

It is analyzing edits, past placement patterns, body language etc. There a lot more to discussing the sleuthing aspect of the show than just SCs. But this season has been worse in being able to do that than others because of the confirmed spoiler.

But also because of the extreme partisanship which may or may not have arisen from having the spoiler so early. I do agree with you about analysis of edits, etc. though

Oh I agree that this may not be because of the spoiler since the fan bases are always rabid. This year there seems to be a early occurence though the craziness is nothing new.

*RANT ON*
I'm sick of some people acting like they're above others and cause no problems. They accuse others of acting a certain way that they don't appreciate and/or is against the rules, yet they are doing the. exact. same. thing. It's frickin annoying. Also, the sore winners syndrome seems to have affected some and that is getting to be too much as well. I just wish everyone didn't resort to these types of behaviors. As a fan of someone who isn't in the F2 it makes me not want to visit any threads because of the bickering, the gloating, etc.

After all, it's just a stupid t.v. show. There's no need to act as these people's personal defenders.

*RANT OFF*

And if you take issue with what I said, feel free to PM me because I'm not dealing with the baiting and attacks I received after I voiced my opinion last time.

Talk about the cast, crew, show, edit = Okay.

I cannot agree with this post more!

New Banner! I've been thinking the very same thing.

I LOVE THIS IDEA!!!! (Have to admit - I'd probably peek into the spoiler section though - but I wouldn't say anything) I love the sleuthing (I'm terrible at it but I still try). I do get tired of the fangirling which is, in my opinion, what is behind the arguments.

Instead of space for sleuthing, I wish there was space for only fanficcing. I know I would appreciate some Cupcake stories!

Yep and everyone acts like they know all the cast members personally. Heaven forbid if you don't take a liking to EM, Brad, Jef or Arie. Again, everyone is entitled to their opinions.

Last I looked, we are still in the land of freedom and we can utilize our free speech amendment. No need to clobber someone over their thoughts or opinions.

Being that these things are allowed in our site rules, we should be able to do this without feeling pressure or the insinuation of derogatory terms being tossed around.

I would like to complain about the 23 hours of my life that I wasted on this stupid season. I'd also like to complain in advance about the 23 hours of my life that I will likely waste on the next season.
