um

I feel kind of bad for bumping that post down, but I have a little announcement:

The Borders by my work is closing and having a pretty awesome clearance sale, so I did a little treasure hunting and found a couple of nice surprises. I found new copies of The Ellimist Chronicles for like $.80 so I bought three of them? Because I felt obligated? Also I spotted a big stack of #22s but they were $1.20 and I'M NOT MADE OF MONEY JEEZ.

Anyway, if anyone needs/wants a new copy of The Ellimist Chronicles, PM me your address. 'Tis the season, I'll send you a copy for free. :)



ETA: All claimed! Sorry if you didn't get one. I'll check back after the new year to see if they have any left (or are still open), but I can't make any promises. (3:47 PM)

Spoiler Discussion

So! As some of you might have noticed, we have a re-release coming in May. You also might have noticed that there's a nice empty space on the profile titled "Spoiler Policy". Since we are hoping that the re-release will introduce the books to new fans and all, this does mean that we're going to need to decide how we're going to deal with spoilers.

Seeing as we could have people who have only read books 1 and 2 alongside people who have read book 54...well, this could be a little tricky to work out. I do already have a few thoughts on how we could approach this, which I'll detail below. But, we won't be deciding the new spoiler policy just yet - that'll be voted on by the community at a later date, and if need be we'll have multiple discussions before it comes to a vote.

For today, what I'd really like to hear is ideas and possible approaches. I'd also like to hear about your experiences in other fandoms, and how they've dealt with spoilers - what worked, what didn't.

Now, for some initial thoughts: )
