As the year draws to a close, it is time once again to reflect on the year ending and prepare to move forward.
We’ve had many success (Critical Hit, The Major Spoilers Store, increase in writing staff, more special features, to name a few), and many headaches over the past year (site crashes, increased costs due to server moves, writers moving on, databases going bonk for the so science could make a move forward). We’ve mentioned multiple times that Major Spoilerites are free to offer up their suggestions for what they want to see from Major Spoilers. Now is the time to toss out your ideas for the year to come.
In the past, readers have suggested themes for the Major Spoilers Podcast, increased coverage on certain topics, contests, Poll of the Week, and so on. One Twitter follower (twitter.com/MajorSpoilers) even suggested a great idea for a future Major Spoilers Store product that will more than likely see the light of day in the next month or so.
Regardless of what many may think, we do read every email and suggestion sent our way. We certainly can’t approve or initiate every idea, but those that rise above the rest are always taken into consideration. And because of our busy schedules, it may take longer for certain features to be implemented (cough-return-of-The-Want-List-cough-cough-slackers-cough).
One new feature we do want to get out the door this year is a reward for reaching certain Major Spoilers Achievements… What does that entail? KEEP WATCHING THE SKIES!
Thanks for being part of Major Spoilers, and for those of you who have become part of the complete Major Spoilers Experience (website, podcasts, Twitter, Facebook, forums, and so on), we thank you even more. Here’s hoping everyone has a great new year.

MSP dudes, thank you for another year of fun, constant, high quality entertainment. Believe that we your fans are well aware of the sacrifices that you have to go through living off Luthordollars in order to put the MS experience together. I look forward to a 2011 full of MS fun. Happy new year to the whole crew, and once again, thanks!!!
Thank you to all the MSP folks for providing lots of great content in all that you do. The site, podcasts and forums are always interesting and entertaining. Looking forward to more of the same in the new year!
I wish you and all Major Spoilerites all the best in 2011!
If I may suggest a New Year’s Resolution: Please resolve to include the (cover) price in your reviews. It’s an important piece of information that is typically lacking.
I’ve been listening to the show since number 1. I’ve called in, written in, suggested Poll’s, I even got to chat with the boys on the live show. I’m not a frequent commenter on any other website except Major Spoilers (If I read a geek-centric story on another site first, and have a comment to make, I save it for Major Spoilers, knowing they will inevitably have the story too, and my comments won’t get lost in a sea of intard-nerd-rage.) I am a huge spoilerite and proud of it, and I’m excited for the year to come.
Thanks so much, Major Spoilers.
P.S.: I have a special surprise for you guys this next year, too. You may see an extra comic in your review inbox in the next few months.
My suggestion:
Neglected/Forgotten Character of the Month: Sort of an overview of an otherwise interesting character that hasn’t been used in some time or appears very little. There are plenty of characters out there that even the most faithful readers of a series might think “Who the heck is that?” but that have fans just waiting for the character to see print again or used as more than a background character.
Over this year, I discovery the MSP through Critical Hit, listened to the whole CH series 8 times, and even got my email read on the show. Thanks for a kewl 2010 guys!!!
I remember when you stopped the blog some time back … it crushed my world!
But once I saw that Superboy punch I know that situation will be saved in a really superhero way.
I can imagine how much work on the blog cost you, not only in terms of money but personally.
Thank you for all the efforts and sleepless nights you have spent here guys (and gals).
All the best for you in 2011 and for your families a great deal of patience for you.
Let MSP go where no blog has gone before!!!

By definition, Major Spoilers is not a blog. Major Spoilers is a website. :)
But we appreciate your support and your comments.
I’d suggest that you make your “contact us” section work at the bottom of the page and maybe make the email more prominent.
Also update the Copyright 2009 to 2011.
In addition to maybe a Manga review section, I’d also like to see a cartoons for kids (since you watch them with your son) review, cartoons for teens, cartoons for adults/anime.
Your last podcast did address adult comics…just saying there is a lot of them on the interwebs.

*ah forgot one more thing…I’m not a “banner sponsor” but your “advertise here” graphs about your demographics only go thru late 2009…
