Hey, wanna know who wins Survivor?

Jeff ProbstSeems like this is happening every season. People are putting heavy bets on Bodog.com for a certain contestant on Survivor. Or I should make that past tense, were putting, as Bodog has stopped all betting for the show.

When this happened other seasons, the betting was pretty accurate, and now the people are betting on...(POSSIBLY GIANT SPOILER AHEAD SO DON'T CLICK IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE, UM, SPOILED! DON'T CLICK! STOP READING! DON'T CLICK!)...

I started watching the show this season, but I stopped watching it a few weeks ago, so this news doesn't have any effect on me one way or the other.

Pinwiz, are you really considered a reader by skimming?

Knowing who wins is only a minute part of the appeal of Survivor, watching how they get to that final win is what is really interesting. Who cares if you got spoiled, perhaps now you can have fun watching to see exactly how the winner orchestrates that win (or falls into is, as the case may be).

"Honestly, I think that title is good warning. If you read past the title "Hey, Wanna Know Who Wins Survivor," that's up to you."

I skim my RSS feeds, so I missed the title. In the middle of a significant amount of white space, there was one word. It happens, and it was careless of TVSquad to not think of their readers.

Fortunately, this season isn't all that great and I'm not all that concerned. Had this happened last fall, I would have seen red for a week.

I agree with 1 and 2, pretty annoying to read that in my RSS feed. Please don't do that in the future Bob.

I can see where that would be a bummer, having the spoilers show up in the RSS feed.

However, I really can't see how they can have betting on a show that is not aired fairly quickly after finishing taping. Regardless of contracts, etc., people close to the winner (and probably the losers as well) know who wins, or at the very least who doesn't win.

Agreed. I didn't have a chance to avoid being spoiled because I was reading the RSS. Thanks! Really!

In the future could you have spoilers not appear in the abstract of your RSS feed, because the whole article was in the abstract, which I didn't really want to see.
