Re: Good to know. DomA Send a noteboard - 22/09/2009 11:01:35 PM
I hadn't heard that Harriet and Brandon didn't want anything out there. Of course I wouldn't have voted for something that was against their wishes if I had. So yeah, I take back my yes vote now that I know this. And I kind of feel like a jerk.


I don't know either, but it's the vibe I get from the little I know, notably the decision not to have ARC printed.

Don't feel like a jerk, you can't be blamed for wanting reviews
Personally I don't mind them - I just won't read them except from one or two reviewers I know and trust, if they happen to publish some down the line. I don't want to go into TGS with false expectations because I don't know where this or that person stands about the series, that's all. Jason I knew, having read his previous reviews and knowing on what we agree and disagree - and I know he'd be very respectful about spoilers, so I read him. There are few others like this - Bob Klutz, Leigh Butler, Matt from TL - and that's about it. There's gonna be plenty of time to read what other readers think of TGS after I've read TGS.

Unauthorized and fake reviews I'm against on principle, though. The less of those around the better, as far as I'm concerned. It might stay in a single thread here, but that won't stop people from repeating the information elsewhere, whether it's true or false.
