Please note that discussion of book spoilers is being treated different from discussion of card leaks. Any posts in any thread in the main Rumor Mill subforum or a thread other than the designated thread will be removed from the forums.
You'd think so, but as it turns out that's not the case.
We're talking about spoilers that are unique to the as-yet-unreleased book. If it's on a card, it's fair game.
So your telling me that Gideon does not die and Nicol Bolas does not spend an eternity in the meditation realm? Cause that’s on the cards applied today. And it would be real strange if the book didn’t kill Gideon and imprison Nicol Bolas.
I just don’t understand what the difference is, or the issue.
Why can’t there be a clearly labeled book spoiler thread?

The difference is the potential level of nuance in book spoilers as opposed to the relatively high-level spoilers on a card. While a lot of work is put into developing a new set and fleshing out the story, it's expected that the story-related information is spoiled relatively quickly as a set comes out, especially a story-driven set like this. It's diving deep into the plot of the book that's the issue - while the overarching plot will be the same, the amount of work and details of plot put into fleshing out a novel isn't going to be the same as that of putting main story points onto the cards.
Additionally, as noted in the announcement above, there IS a clearly labeled book spoiler thread. It's just stored in the Speculation subforum rather than the main Rumor Mill forum. This announcement is to tell people not to pepper other threads about the cards with book spoiler threads.

The Vorthos community will await the consequences of the Eldrazi Titans' deaths/sealing. We will keep the watch.
