Imo we need some simple guideline to tackle spoilers in relation to Pitboss games.
I really like Pitboss because it keeps moving day after day but having enough and good subs is key for that. Since Pitboss games can run over a year someone not even playing Civ IV atm could be a enthousiastic sub in a couple of months.
And I like maintaining spoilers for others and myself to enjoy. But I don't want a situation where someone who has read my spoiler can't sub anymore.
So imo we need a simple guideline like:
- The main active players in a pitboss never read other players spoilers.
- Same for active subs.
- Someone can only sub if he/she hasn't read a spoiler of that Pitboss less than 4 weeks ago.
Just some initial thoughts. Feel free to comment.
Imo it still is a good idea that players looking for a sub announce so and who it will be.
