Tends to be most popular in webcomics, since they're one of the few remaining mediums that can genuinely be kept under wraps, spoiler-free.
 
[[Ship Tease]] is a specific variety of this trope, as is [[The Walrus Was Paul]]. Differs from [[Shrug of God]] since there is definitely a deliberate tactic being employed, and it isn't always in response to fans' questions - in fact, you get the feeling the the fans are being ''provoked'' into asking questions. Compare [[Lying Creator]] for when the author is deliberately misleading fans, and [[Trolling Creator]], when this gets outright malicious.
