*NO SPOILERS* - The Bachelorette 10 - General Discussion

I was unspoiled and at the F3 one poster said they wanted Clare to win just so RS would be wrong.  That was in the non-spoiled section.  I had picked Nikki as the F1 but that sure didn't leave any room for doubt as to who was F1.  It was clear that Andi was leaving so RS spoiled Nikki.  That is the type of post that I would really like people to avoid in the non-spoiled section.  Obviously this poster knew who was the spoiled winner and their post didn't come right out and say it, but it was clear.

It was only after that point when we started taking real life information into account during our discussions.

I did not technically spoil myself by reading the RS threads nor did I go on his site (no thanks!).
However I did put 2 and 2 together when other posters started dropping hints and arguing against the spoilers.  
litta123 is right. We were trying to sleuth old-school prior to the pesky spoiler king ruining the fun for us all. Now everyone not only believes him but feels the need to post that information everywhere. Just yuck.

It would  be helpful if everyone could just post about the topic at hand and keep the additional information out. But that is probably never going to happen.

Personally I found the social media/articles and tweets very helpful in figuring out the ending without being spoiled. While till the day of the FRC i was not 100% because there were so many good reasons to believe in another ending I was more sure that Nikki was F1 than Clare. IMO that interview she (Clare) gave was a clincher for me.
I just knew that Brooks could not be F1 despite all and sundry claiming that he was. His real life activities did not indicate that he was. Therefore I feel we need that information on the non-spoiler side as well.

Often there are just not enough SCs in the Season Preview to tell the whole story and to sleuth from just the edit and SCs. This season they did not release most of Nikki's time and no LCD/MTP pics to prove that she was in the F2. But social media (her traveling at regular intervals etc. was a bigger clue).
JMO.

I wasn't "spoiled" when I first came on board the non-spoiler threads, however, I did get spoiled looking at an article for which I was not surprised before I had already come to conclusion that Nikki was F1.  To me, the logic just wasn't there for Clare being F1.  I think that it was just unclear as to who was spoiling vs who figured it out on their own.

I was unspoiled and at the F3 one poster said they wanted Clare to win just so RS would be wrong.  That was in the non-spoiled section.  I had picked Nikki as the F1 but that sure didn't leave any room for doubt as to who was F1.  It was clear that Andi was leaving so RS spoiled Nikki.  That is the type of post that I would really like people to avoid in the non-spoiled section.  Obviously this poster knew who was the spoiled winner and their post didn't come right out and say it, but it was clear.

That is exactly what happened for me too.

For me it was - go argue about RS and his spoilers in that thread and stop coming here to constantly try and prove your point   . You are spoiling things for us all.

Jon Pardi is heading to ABC’s hit show The Bachelorette, but fear not ladies, he will NOT be a contestant on the reality dating show. Instead of competing for leading-lady Andi Dorfman’s affections, Pardi will most likely be providing the musical portion for a date. However, this may not be a typical awkward one-on-one Bachelorette moment of twirling to a private concert, as the show is looking for fans to attend the Pardi party this Wednesday, March 26th, at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun Resort & Casino.

Pardi joins the likes of country stars Billy Currington, Sarah Darling and Luke Bryan, all who have appeared on different seasons of the ABC dating competition.
