I agree. Spoiler thread or not, it's going to get out there. At least this way there's some order otherwise it's just open for anyone to post it anywhere

This is yet another spoiler related thread where you are saying the same exact thing. You clearly don't like it so ignore it.

Simply let people who like it , enjoy it in peace.

Yet you wish to spoil it for those who do want to know the spoiler results by saying the spoiler thread is wrong and should be done away with

Well said AM. I APPLY FOR TICKETS EVERY YEAR FOR EVERY SHOW and never had as much as a sniff, (sob). But if I did I would be a mole xx

I know you would sweetie - I have applied for every show this year, & my hubby has too (he'll give me the tickets, not a chance in hell of him actually joining me)

In case you missed it, There's someone with spare tickets here: http://forums.digitalspy.co.uk/showt...1#post79893963

Are you free on Saturday hun - you're local & the validation time is really early (9am now), so you'd have to be there early morning xx

Alas, have prior commitments on Saturday! (weekends tend to be away from the 'Wood these days, so have to plan in advance)

Have a great time xx

Bumping this and hoping we find a mole for this coming weekend!

Just bumping the thread to the top!

I've applied for all the live shows but would love to get tickets for Blackpool

Fingers crossed someone comes forward.

Anyone able to help out with this?

How do you verify that the 'moles' are genuine?

No need to answer that if it will give people ideas on how to 'spoil' the spoiler.

I don't generally follow the spoiler thread, but I have been here long enough to have seen more than one occasion where it has spilled into the main forum.

Sometimes because there have been questions about the bona fides of the mole. That lost a good mole.

Sometimes because there has been a rammy on the thread. That may have made moles reluctant.

Sometimes - as was the case this weekend - because the spoiler was wrong. You can spin it as much as you like - the spoiler managed to be right about who went out. But it was still 50% wrong.

And, if any anxious Kirsty fans had read it, how did it help their anxiety to think that she had been unpopular enough to end up in the dance off?

Best case scenario is that they spent a few hours worrying about that before watching the results show and realising that Jamelia was more disliked than their girl.

Worst case scenario is that they read the spoiler, haven't come back, and are still fretting about Kirsty being in the bottom two. Although she wasn't.

I don't get the importance of being able to discuss the result before it has been broadcast. I don't get the need to know the result before it is officially broadcast.

I do get the frisson which some denizens of the spoiler thread experienced on Sunday - when the results show announced something unexpected. I've experienced that frisson many times because I watch the results show without having seen a spoiler.

There's no real need for a spoiler thread. People will survive without one.

But people like it - so that's a good enough reason to have it.

So, how do you verify that the 'moles' are genuine?

Just bumping this one up to page one

Basically, you can't - you just have to hope that they are.

Just to correct you there, the spoiler was 33% wrong.

Iwan in Dance off - correct
Iwan eliminated - correct
Kirsty in dance off - incorrect

#chuckle

Now I see it differently. Its all to do with weighting and the value/importance of the answers.

Who went - most important piece of information so I give that 60% weighting for a correct answer
Who is in the dance off 20% for each correct answer.

So I reckon it was 80% correct. In university marking that's a first!

I bow to your logic

Why would DS ban a thread which is getting 200,000 views when they get advertising costs from them all?

Exactly!!

It's hit over a quarter of a million views - just had a quick & very non-scientific search of DS and the Spoiler Thread looks like the hottest thread on the site!!!!

Lotsa things I don't like but the concept of not allowing them is not part of my mentality!

I must say I used to be in the "wait till the live results" camp , but I'm a total convert to a spoiler thread now , because quite simply it's difficult to avoid spoilers on my fb and twitter accounts so I may as well just get used to it .
Plus I'm more inclined to trust the likes of abigailsmum etc to winnow out the truth among social media rumours for us . She does a sterling job . Last Saturday was just a blip and things will get back on course .

Last Saturday's result was reported by a number of people who followed Team Ogogo on Twitter - and the (as it happened CORRECT result) was posted on the spoiler thread by various people, including myself. Team Ogogo got the other couple in the dance off wrong admittedly.

Abigailsmum drew attention to the need for caution with the result - in particular to the other couple in the dance off!

Where are all the tickets going this year? Not to DS FMs it seems.

There is a lady on the I Love Strictly Come Dancing thread who's going......I'll see if I can PM her
