Yeah and that was the same for others in their answers too. Like Chris' 'secret admirer' letter basically had him saying what he did in the bio of what he wants in a woman.

It's too bad that not of the final 4 have this question in their bio because then we would be able to compare them.

Does anyone miss the old fashion sleuthing before RS?

Yes and no.
I originally found FORT for spoilers. I like to find out the answers.    I like to be spoiled, even with books.  I am not big on surprise! :giggle: 
I stumbled upon the sletuthing at FORT. 
I like sleuthing, but I like sleuthing what I feel I want to sleuth and before RS I got too entrenched with stuff that in retrospect wasn't important(I define this as minutia, but it may not be to anyone else!) 
So now I am more circumspect(in my own mind) with what I choose or not to sleuth.

Kasha, I read the last chapter of a book first to see if it is worth my time, do you do this too?

I suck at sleuthing, glad to have all of you for that!

[Kashathediva]

No, I have some self control :giggle: ("some" being word!)--I always say I'm not going to spoil the ending and then about half way through I skip to the last chapter and read just a teeny weeny bit to feed that urge. 
However, I will seldom do that with my very favorite author. That's supreme dessert!! I won't spoil that!

To me RS is a tool in sleuthing.  I am all about the spoilers. I've had enough of MF's lies not to have them.

You have more control than I do. Sometimes it makes me interested to see how they will build the plot and get to that point.

Sleuthing in those days was very different. Sleuthers worked hard just as they do now, but didn't have to justify their findings against those who believe in a certain blogger.

There were plenty of findings without his help. We used to find contestants on our own, among many other things related to the show. Imagine that.

Same here.  I've abandoned books midway because of the ending - I can't seem to justify investing the time on something I wouldn't be happy about.  #ExampleGoneGirl. Have you decided to not watch B/ette because of spoiled ending?

[pavalygurl]

Catdwoman, OMG Gone Girl has been my favorite book since I read it two years ago. I am so looking forward to the film. I respect your choice however since I have had trouble getting into the author's other books.

Well, I watch this show for totally different reasons probably than most.   So I don't know how long winded you want me to get.  :hidingchair  
The short answer is "no". 
The longer answer--I watch this show for snark and for the social experiment of being a drift in a basic bubble and seeing how the people interact--much like Survivor(my favorite) or Big Brother(my second fav). 
The last reason I would ever watch this show is for romance. 
Early on this show became a game to me--like the show The Mole, if you remember that. There were contests for TB and I was good and won some. 
So the last thing I ever was attached to was a)the cast b) the romance.
I have to honestly admit over the seasons there are a few cast who have entered the realm of "real people" to me and who I have come to enjoy, (and a few here and there I really don't like) but for the most part these people are no more important in my life than the characters of any other sitcom or drama. 
I am an equal opportunity snarkist.
