[objection!] Story-related subforums

I've got no idea if I'm alone with this, but thread titles in these mere forums tend to be a tad more revealing than I liked them to be.
speculations on the cliffhanger, anyone?

foreshadowing of murray's appareanace..

Just a quick re-cap of what's happening in here. You don't need a brain damaged by the inane logics of bad adventure games to draw all kinds of conclusions from these - of which some ring true by the point you're actually finished with the game yourself. I'm suggesting a subforum for the ever so delicate topics related to plot progression. And thereabouts. Meaning that all of the spoiler talk is going to be seperated from the actuall, well, general discussion upfront. Who's in?

    If you are familiar with an ongoing season, with with the concept of this being an Episodic Game, The idea that EPISODE 1 could end on a cliffhanger is by no means news.

    This is only spoilery with context, which is not really in the Title, they could be asking "Who is your favorite Female charachter after Elaine?" you don't know.

    Since the only people who truely know if Murray is going to appear in ToMI are the Telltale People, this is by no means a spoiler, just mere conjecture.


    Sorry to say that those titles you are picked are really nothing comapared to something like

    Murder on the Orient Express: THEY ALL DID IT!!

    Apologies to those of us that haven't indulged in this particular novel but the books been our for decades, Deal with it.

    Yeah, sorry, quoted the wrong thread title, really.

    Doesn't matter if it's all speculative, of course it mostly is by its very nature. It's that you occasionally get to read about plot-related stuff that hasn't happened to you yet. And this right in the thread titles. Hard to avoid those. Naturally.

    In my opinion subforums would be a great idea for a different reason: there are so many threads now that it's getting chaotic.
    Why not have a subforum for general game discussions, one for reviews, one for polls and one for everything else? Would make it easier to find a special thread.

    That sounds like a splendid idea :)

    Sign me up. I'm currently spending up to two hours a day catching up with this single forum... :D

    np: The Cool Kids - What It Is (The Bake Sale)

    I'm starting to really agree on this. A "plot discussion" or "spoiler discussion" subforum would be great.

    i agree its really confusing and hard to tell if someone already asked your question.

    I'm with Mad Mary on this. I think a general forum for the fan art thread, how did you get into MI in the first place? Which series is your favorite? etc, one for plot discussion so no one has to worry about spoiler tagging their whole post and you could fit the reviews in there as well. Polls could go into either forum, based on how spoilery they are. Just dividing it into two forums would probably help.
