Ninja Warrior Facebook WARNING!!!

[VenusHeadTrap]

**NO Spoilers will be posted in this topic**


Do NOT go to the ninja warrior facebook at this time (or any time soon) and expect to not have Sasuke 26 spoiled, they just announced results of several of the ANW contestants.

I didn't even go directly to the facebook page and I still got spoiled, the reason for this is they recently posted about it and it showed up ON MY HOMEPAGE. Just like that I got screwed, damn you G4, at least wait a few days! Don't be posting that when certain people might have missed the initial broadcast.

That's something that really worried me beforehand. With the Internet and people who can't keep quiet (this forum included), it's going to be really tough to avoid the spoilers for those of you who didn't watch the last 2 episodes. Although this will probably be really tough to do, if you want to keep from being spoiled about multiple things you're gonna almost have to avoid ANY SITE AT ALL THAT CAN BE LINKED TO SASUKE/NINJA WARRIOR. This includes (but certainly not limited to) YouTube, Facebook, Sasukepedia, the G4/Ninja Warrior website, and even SMF to an extent. Point blank, if you want to stay spoiler-free until January 2nd, you might have to take some major precautions. I don't mean to be so panicky and serious, but it's true. So be careful everyone.

In other semi-related news, I ended up watching it anyway because I have no patience (plus my little brother would probably end up telling me something along the lines of "Guess what! (certain person in ANW2)(certain action that occurred and in the process ruined what would've caused me to keep from being spoiler-free for Sasuke 26)!" I'm not sure if that was a good idea or not considering how many people might spoil stuff, but whatever. Just be very, very, VERY careful everybody who didn't watch.

I'm staying out of this forum entirely (hence why i created this topic again 5 minutes ago). Since i didn't see it.

But yes everyone be careful,

Were Japanese runs spoiled or just ANW2 runs?

Well it seems they didn't spoil much else of Sasuke 26's results, so I may watch. If they truly made it seem that only the Americans were at Sasuke 26 that is.

To keep things very general, 99% of what they showed/said only applied to the 10 ANW2 guys. The other 1% consisted of stuff in the background/Japanese narration, and even that was only 2 or 3 times (there was however 1 in particular that I'm pretty sure might be a significant spoiler if I interpreted it correctly). Point blank, probably best for you guys to stay away from it anyway because there might have been other things that I might have missed.

Also sheep, is it OK if we talk about the obstacles only in the obstacles thread? Because I don't know if you guys only want to keep the results from being found out or both results AND obstacles. Better safe than sorry...

Yeah, there are a few spoilers you would pick up on if you really pay attention, I counted about 4. One was in the background on the screen in the first stage and the other 3 came from the announcer, so if you understand what the announcer is saying which I think most of us do and don't want to be spoiled don't watch ANW2's finale.

Rider, what do you think? He's a sponge, he probably figured out every nook and cranny of spoilers in ANW.

I had a couple of minor spoilers but one that seemed like it might be significant but they might have just meant as for the group and not everyone...
I'm going to post it in the isolated runs topic..

[supersheep]

Ok guys..

I think we have covered the point.

If you dont want to get spoiled, watching the ANW2 finals is a bad idea, looking at facebook is a worse idea.

Yam: You can talk about the obstacles only in the obstacle thread, but if anything ties into ANW, thats not good. Rider inadventantly did that earlier and within an hour the entire thread was derailed, so be extremely careful.

Those like myself that are observant of various clues of who made it deep should not watch ANW. M9 uses the same tricks that have been used in previous tournaments on how they run the tournament. So yes you will get spoiled if you look too closely into it.

Thanks for the warning.

I imagine watching ANW2 would be like whenever a new commercial comes out for an upcoming Sasuke. For every normal person, nothing is spoiled, but we notice recognisable clothes, spot people in the background, etc, without even trying to.
