Chaos Posted November 4, 2020 Report Share Posted November 4, 2020 (edited) Hi everyone, I just wanted to clarify some things about spoilers for Rhythm of War and Dawnshard as we approach release! Everything's the same as in our spoiler policy, but we just wanted to give some more specifics. Rhythm of War Rhythm of War spoilers must only* be in one of our three spoiler boards for Rhythm of War: RoW General Thoughts, RoW Character Discussion, and RoW Lore, Cosmere, and Mechanics. These will exist for nine months after Rhythm of War's release. Only publicly released material can be discussed in Rhythm of War boards, such as the prerelease chapters. Full book spoilers are not allowed until Midnight Eastern time on November 17th. Full cosmere spoilers are allowed untagged in the RoW Lore, Cosmere, and Mechanics board. In other forums, you must hide non-Stormlight content behind spoiler tags in posts, or put a tag like [Mistborn] in the title. Avoid spoilers in topic titles. Dawnshard Dawnshard spoilers go in our Dawnshard spoiler board, which will exist for three months after release. Do not put Rhythm of War spoilers in this board. Cosmere spoilers are allowed in the Dawnshard board. Avoid spoilers in topic titles. How to discuss Rhythm of War and Dawnshard material together Use the RoW boards if you want to discuss Rhythm of War and Dawnshard together. Dawnshard material in the RoW must be spoiler tagged. Either put [Dawnshard] in the topic title, or hide Dawnshard material behind spoiler tags in a post. *There may be certain exceptions. For example, RoW spoilers (or Dawnshard spoilers) could come up in the Coppermind or Arcanum boards, and that is okay. But do not put RoW spoilers in other book discussion boards, even if it is tagged. Use the appropriate spoiler board instead. Additionally, the Shardcast channel on Discord will have spoilers when we do videos on new stuff. Edited November 17, 2020 by Chaos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted February 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2021 It's been about three months since Dawnshard has been publicly available. Our spoiler policy on novellas is three months, so on February 12th, Dawnshard's spoiler period will be over. This will mean: You can discuss Dawnshard in the Stormlight Archive and Cosmere forums untagged, as well as in the three Rhythm of War spoiler boards. The Dawnshard Discussion forum will be removed and its topics will be moved to either the Stormlight Archive board or Cosmere board. Coppermind spoiler tags on Dawnshard will be removed. Discord will have similar policies and its Dawnshard channel will no longer be active. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
