That's probably the best way to do it until more people decide to skip. Hell, that's how the KF forums do it and they are a One Piece forums. Boss, why don't you just edit your first post in the 246 thread and rename it Water 7 Arc Discussion.

As far as a sad ending, I don't think the events of W7 are going to be that big a deal overall. I don't for a second think that Usopp isn't going to be back with the crew before the arc is over and I even suspect Robin will be as well(because as I mentioned in the other thread I don't know how the Straw Hats could beat CP9 otherwise.)
