If they did do that, we'd have to weigh the wiki's spoiler policy against our need to stay up to date and accurate.

The worst thing is that it would effectively make the free member release of one episode occur at the same time as the first release for the next one, which would be bad for a lot of things

The spoiler policy would become much harder to enforce; we'd have a hard time monitoring every single edit to make sure spoilers didn't get in while also carrying out all the updates needed to cover a new release.

And of course, there's the segregation in the community as well; there would be no point in which both first members and free members were both talking about the same episode, which would effectively split the discussion in two. And even worse, we'd have a much harder time allowing that discussion without bringing in spoilers. Right now we just have one thread that's made hidden for 24 hours. That thread quickly becomes waaay too bulky to navigate at the best of times. If it was the only place we could talk about an episode for a week the discussion would become practiclaly unworkable.

In short, it would basically have a HORRIBLE effect on this wiki's comunity if they put in that big a delay.
