Good Show Sir

It’s that time of year again, meaning turkey, festive ham, chocolate, hot chocolate, chocolate ice cream, chocolate in some sort of pastry, more ham and stuffing!

So for all you people, like me, still having to brave the Christmas shops and regretting not ordering everything online, here is the Christmas mega post! A mix of things here, a couple of honourable mentions too!

Have a great holiday and we’ll be back in the new year with an Old Year SumUP!

Hi All! GSS Admin here. So it’s probably that time.

Ever since the great technical problems days the database that runs on the GoodShowSir has been… well in an incredible mess behind the scenes. Honestly, I haven’t paid much attention to the site for a while… my sincere thanks to Bibliomancer for basically running everything here for as long (if not longer) than I did.

I’m going to be hacking away at the site for a bit over the next few weeks and not sure what it’s going to become or even remain.

Would love to know everyone’s thoughts, is GSS still an essential part of your daily internet life? I’ll keep this posted here and would love to think this won’t be our final post, maybe try to do something special if I can make things work.

Everyone here has been amazing and there have been some great adventures. I have loved everything from everyone’s comments, talking to amazing graphical artists to… Harlen Ellison sending me the largest rant I have seen from anyone about censorship… why he had to have the words Viagra, spam and drug references in his comment post I will never know.

On a recent visit to a book shop, I sat for a while going through the SCI-FI fantasy section, looking at all the new books I found myself laughing because they were all so good. Not a single anthropomorphic katana wielding creature. I looked to my wife, smiling away and said, “I wonder if we (GSS) had a hand in changing that.” I at least I like to think we might of played our part.

I’ll never stop searching though… for that perfect cover… the one with a dragon playing a guitar all while a man tiger scales a pyramid of semi-naked women. And I’ll say, “Good Show Sir… good show!”

GSS Admin!

EDIT 1 – So it looks like the submission form might have been a bit broken for a while. Possibily since Janurary. I wonder what beauties we have missed, sorry to anyone who thought we might just be ignoring them!

EDIT 2 – Sorry quick update. Have found a good method to move and at least maintain everything here. Apologises though I am just very much lacking in personal time to do the work though. Common thing with me, but I will try and get things moved and hopefully improved soon!

Emster Comments: Throughout his childhood, Otto’s mum successfully kept him from losing mittens with simple mitten strings. She used a similar technique to keep him from getting booted from the space academy.
