As per usual, I prefer to sound the Quorum of fans before I embody the group's decision:

Tomorrow I will make all the TGO ARC subforum and TGO ARC Author Q&A public. It's already been decided that I will move the TGO ARC Author Q&A threads to the Author Q&A subforum with the added "[TGO SPOILERS]" tag and Cû'jara-Cinmoi can continue answering questions there as he's compulsed when his routine gets back on the roll.

Otherwise, the hive-meld of regulars see a couple options for the TGO ARC subforum:

- I can delete that private subforum and I can move all the threads to the TGO subforum proper with the "[TGO SPOILERS]" tag and leave them open to continuation.
             - though, we all concurred that we'd rather let everyone start fresh in which case I can keep them locked (but that means a page and a half of locked threads in the TGO subforum).

OR

- I can make the subforum public lock it and people can being anew with new threads and continuations of the ARC subforum threads suitably marked with "[TGO SPOILERS]" tags.

Sounding the Plate.

Cheers.

I would Public lock and begin anew, so as to foster more coversation.

“No. I am your end. Before your eyes I will put your seed to the knife. I will quarter your carcass and feed it to the dogs. Your bones I will grind to dust and cast to the winds. I will strike down those who speak your name or the name of your fathers, until ‘Yursalka’ becomes as meaningless as infant babble. I will blot you out, hunt down your every trace! The track of your life has come to me,

Yeah lets lock it and start anew.

My personal preference is to start anew. With the locked threads.

I don't really see the point in locking them all, but it doesn't really matter.
I am a warrior of ages, Anasurimbor. . . ages. I have dipped my nimil in a thousand hearts. I have ridden both against and for the No-God in the great wars that authored this wilderness. I have scaled the ramparts of great Golgotterath, watched the hearts of High Kings break for fury. -Cet'ingira

Because then you'll just have two TGO subforums, H, people posting in the both subforums having the same conversations, etc, etc.

Gives me a head-ache just thinking about it.

EDIT: Alright. About an hour I'd say.

READER BEWARE - A WHOLE PAGE OF TGO SPECULATION INCOMING INTO RECENT AND UNREAD TOPICS - If anyone, previous ARC readers or official copy readers, want to continue the threads of the ARC subforum please remake the thread in the TGO subforum proper.

Oh, I thought they were going to be moved one way or the other, obviously my coffee deprived brain failed to realize the critical difference.

Staying put and locked seems better now that I understand.

So as I wrote:

There's a read-only TGO ARC Discussion unlocked at the top of TGO subforum.

Please feel free to create new threads of any of the old ARC threads to continue discussion.

And now all the TGO ARC Author Q&A threads are in the Author Q&A-proper, sorted and scattered as per their posting date.

A quick perusal (and I mean real quick) seems to show that all the errors we found are still in, so there might not be any difference from the ARC to Retail, except the map and character list.

0% surprised. However, with the late Tor release they might get fixes.
