Yes, I know these threads are annoying, but this time ...
Generally the spoilers of the first collection of a block begin four weeks before the release of the same. Next week.
But we always have the PAX happening before and bringing some news before the spoilers start. Not to mention that this time we still have the Duel Deck: Heroes vs Monsters to be revealed.
The PAX this year begins on August 30 and ends on September 2. If the official spoilers start only after that we will have only two weeks of official spoilers, since the week before the pre-release the collection is released completely.
With all this in question, does anyone know when the official spoilers start on DailyMTG?
Im sorry for not bringing at link but at the beginning of this week someone on Maros blog asked the same question where Maro applied with a "You should be looking forward to this saturday."
This saturday some kind of conference is going on

If you are talking about this, Maro was more likely talking about August 31st, since PAX Prime is from August 30th to September 2nd.
Make sense but i found this which from what i can read is some conference room going on tomorrow for Magic The Gathering
This is likely a group that meets at a library because they don't have a LGS. Makes no sense that they'd go to some library across country to make an announcement, when they have two of the largest GAMING conventions in the country this and next weekend.
This weekend is GenCon, and typically we no longer have spoils at the convention (thanks to PAX). Besides, we would have heard about them by now as it is because the convention started yesterday and any spoils they'd give us would be at the main booth since Magic doesn't have their own panel at GenCon. I'm a regular at this convention, and when we see anything, I'm usually one of the ones who dashes to their hotel room to upload it.
NEXT weekend is PAX. It has a huge Magic presence because it's right there in town for them. They have the big party, and they give us a gobload of spoilers there every year. What they used to do for Gen Con, they do here now.
While it's weird that we have less weeks between prerelease and PAX this year than most... I think it's safe to say that we will have a typical 2 or 3 week spoiler season on the mothership, and maybe it will start RIGHT after PAX as opposed to waiting a week.
No. There was ART previews many years ago, but Lorwyn was the last year they did that. Which is sad, but starting at ZEN they did the PAX party which is better in all respects.

Nope, just lost track of my dates. So it breaks down as such:
08/16 weekend - Gen Con - no spoilers there (unless they do something new this year)
08/30 weekend - PAX - Pax party spoilers
Sept 2 - Likely first week of spoiler season on mothership
Sept 16th - Complete visual spoiler up
September 21-22, 2013 - Prerelease
