I often call this website "The Hydra." No matter how close to done I think I am, as I work, I'm struck with a grand idea and am forced to pursue them! For every "head" I cut off, two come in it's place...
That's all part of the experience of course. Quite a bit has been done since the last update, the most significant of which is the episode guide. It's actually complete! Hurrah! I'd say it only contains about 1/4 the content the "final" version will have, but it's a pretty impressive guide as it is, and, if I may brag, I believe it's currently the most complete and comprehensive Hercules episode guide on the 'net even in this stage!**
The code on the website has also been rewritten, it's not much simpler to edit and use, which helps speed along development but will also make bug fixes quicker and should even make the site faster for you guys when you get to exploring. Thanks Sage!
A unique, custom designed gallery system is in the works at the moment, but is far from complete. I'll look forward to seeing it come together. See you around!
**In light of my enormous backlog, I'm now looking for episode reviewers. Whether you have a single review you'd like to contribute, or if you'd like to join the staff as an official reviewer, just leave me a comment below and we'll sort something out.

An Unfortunate Update
Hello everyone,
I've tried hard to recruit help from various places to help me on this site, and while I've got some great allies, I simply don't have everything I need. My schedule does not allow me to finish this on schedule for December. The content is simply too great to tackle by that time, and stuggling to meet that release date is actually hindering my progress as a whole. So I'm adjusting the site's release date to "when it's done" for now. It shouldn't be a significant delay, but I can't in clear consience release a sub-par product just to get it out on time.
I'll continue to post updates, but I'm no longer going to release updates at set intervals. This is not the end of the site, this is ensuring it's long term success.
I'm sorry for the how poorly these updates have been handled in the last month, but I simply don't have the resources or manpower needed to take care of the site like I need to. I can still build the website on my own, but it'll just take longer. Thank you for your understanding.
