I don't really care enough to be spoiled.

I didn't look, and I really don't want to have it spoiled. It will be so much more exciting to find out on the 18th. I'm not even going into Gloom Looms until after the book is released. What website had the title posted?

How did everyone find out (before it was posted by snicket89)?  I found out today (10/13) at school from a friend who works in a bookstore. I knew I had a chance to do this and have been PMing Gigi to discuss the morally ambiguous implications of knowing in advance. I WASN'T told the title outright, but got just the initials and then played a guessing game with my friend until I figured it out. I have to admit, that was fun. Then I came here and had a PM from Gigi warning me about the spoiled title. Since I already knew, I read the spoiler thread for awhile. Now I see they've also spoiled the dedication and the rest of the cover. I forced myself to get out of the thread before I read the dedication. I won't go back to the spoiler thread until after I've read the book. So, that's my story. |

I really thought I would, because I have every time before this (although I felt horrible about it afterward), but so far this year I've managed to keep myself away from the thread. I feel very fizzy in the brain.
I think I might have spoiled myself on the title accidentally yesterday, though, by looking at a Most Recent posts page that had entries from that thread, but I went away very quickly and have been exerting a massive amount of willpower on my mind to suppress the information from coming into my consciousness. I think it's working. As I said, I feel very fizzy in the brain...
I don't think I'll be able to keep myself from the spoilers if I don't get the book on Tuesday.

I won't go back to the spoiler thread until after I've read the book. I'm doing the exact same thing. BUT, I think the cover was spoilt in the Aggravating Art section (i didn't click the link).. and I read the Beatrice dedication too. Then I left the thread. |

I always read spoilers and then regret it. Including this time. *clings to some faint hope that the spoiled title really isn't the title at all*

I went, got spoiled, and, of course, regret it. It was stupid of me. But I won't go back again.

I read the spoilers. I don't regret it; I think it's cool.
