Lastly, don't try giving me that holier than thou crap that you all want to stay spoiler free or you don't want to know what will happen. If that were the case you wouldn't be in this forum at all. You claim you don't want to know so you can sit around thinking every little thing that happens is a clue.....OMG, Paul blinked his eyes twice and I don't think he had to blink at all. He is lying with his eyes and that makes him the mole. You want to jump from one half-assed theory to another and from one player to another as your current favorite suspect gets executed. Then at the end of the season you try the "yep I knew it was so and so all along. See my last post". And despite it all, amazingly, most of you don't realize an actual clue when it slaps you upside the head. You quickly dismiss it and instead flock to some of the crazier theories that get posted. But by God, at the end of the season you sure knew who the mole was. Give me a break.

Totally missing the difference between spec and spoiler. Yes, what you describe is exactly the ride speccers want to ride throughout the season. And sure, some will inflate their detective skills, either when luck is on their side, or flip-flopping revisionism. And, yeah, that's kinda stupid. Others will genuinely cypher out the answers. Either way a speccer rides, it's their ride to take. It's actually the one the show invites us all to ride.

Spoilers have a different game, gathering information outside the show. Beating the show at it's own game by finding "clues" elsewhere, rather than disecting the clues provided. Finding that info, and determining what it means, is a ride too. There's as much luck and revisionism going on there, as well as solid providers who stand by their info. Now the spoiler that presents a spoiler as spec is a dishonest soul lacking integrity. Much shittier than a specceror spoiler getting lucky or rewriting history.
