How do you keep spoiler free?

I chose not to place this in the spoiler section because I don't want anyone to spoil any more for me.

How do you keep spoiler free, if you still are?

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

Every time I'm tempted to look at a spoiler, I just remind myself that I won't enjoy the game as much if I look at it.

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

I haven't even looked at the SS board even once. Other than this one exception.

I'm not actively trying to avoid spoilers, but it's pretty easy to do when you don't go looking for them.

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

I'd advice against going to any Zelda-related site until November 18th/20th/whatever date you get the game. Really, the risk goes everywhere.

Also if you wanna be safe, stay away from Youtube.

In fact any site that could possibly talk about Skyward Sword. Kotaku, IGN, GoNintendo, stay away from all of it.

Your friends could decide to be real ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥s and spoil it for you through chats or mails. Stay away from those, just in case.

Somebody could accidentally post spoilers on Facebook, so keep clear of Facebook.

In fact, if you want my sound advice, if you wanna be sure to never come across any spoilers of Skyward Sword you really should just barricade yourself inside your room and play Skyrim or something until the game comes out.

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

The people who can truly answer that question have taken internet abstinence until the release date.

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

I decided to not watch any spoilers starting from November 1st and it isn't hard at all. I've watched so many spoilers already so my need for more spoilers decreased a lot. Now I want to play it as fresh as possible.

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

I'm annoyed because even though I've avoided the spoiler board I've still seen screenshots that I would have preferred not to see in other non-spoiler threads. I hope I haven't ruined the game for myself.

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

Go to your room. Lock it. Destroy your computer, and television. Bring a tub of water and powdered food. Bring a small can for bathroom needs. Cut off all communication with the outside door.

Wait 6 days...

Have the game and a new TV be delivered straight to your room.

Don't be like me and go "Oh, it's probably another tibet we already know- AND WHAT HAVE I DONE? D:"
And if you do see a spoiler of any kind, remain calm and don't let it ruin anything for you. We've only waited five years, darling!

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

Easy.

Beating the game before it's out.

Then I'm immune to them.

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

I keep myself spoiler-free by not accessing the spoiler section and watching any recent trailers (since I learned from Square Enix that any trailers released months before the actual release of the game are spoiler-heavy).

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

I just want to be suprised. If theres any chance that a spoiler can be in that thread then I simply don't click it. I can wait to discover it for myself this sunday

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

I don't!

Considering the fact that it'll probably be a while until I get this game, I may as well go ahead and spoil myself on my own terms rather than carefully avoid spoilers and have them pop up in an unexpected place.

Take all the Zelda sites I go to off of my favorites bar (besides this one).

That and a lot of people put things that are just funny in spoiler tags, even though it isn't a spoiler in any way whatsoever (usually not even being about the game) so I sometimes think "Hey this won't be a spoiler will it?", read half of it then "Holy GOD what have I done?!"

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

Don't look at anything Zelda-related (whatever Zelda game i'm looking forward to getting) and avoid watching Youtube videos and visiting the Zelda sections of this site (unless it's the spoiler-free section)

Pretty much my thoughts. Although, that would suck for me because my computer monitor is basically my TV, and a nice one too...just got component cables so I could play it on it and hook it up to my stereo system.

Re: How do you keep spoiler free?

It's only 3 days! Can I do it? I haven't read any spoilers in a few days, so... Also I have to brainwash myself somehow and forget everything I know about the game, I read some things that I regret reading now (most were by accident tho..) -_-
