/ˈmɒfət/ (moffating, to moffat, moffated, moffats etc.) Basically trolling a fandom by ending a TV series season with a cliffhanger, an extremely frustrating ending and/or killing of a character and (optionally) then going on a hiatus for more than a year, all the while managing to make said fandom still love you. After moffating a fandom there will be A) a lot of online sadness for the deceased character and/or B) internet (crack)theories and/or C) quite a bit of good old fashioned Internet rage against the writer of the episode. Good examples are Sherlock or Doctor Who.
