Being one of the guys that posts practice and qualifying standings, I always 
use *SPOILER* in the subject line. I loved it when I saw from another post 
the ultimate fail-safe for using the proper *SPOILER* technique. Put 
*SPOILER*  in the subject line, but then only enter "scroll down" in the 
text field/ You then have to actively scroll down for a second or two until 
you can see the full text. So even if you open a spoiler by accident, you 
still won't be "spoiled".
