How does one do the time warp?
It's just a jump to the left, and then a step to the right. Put your hands on your hips and bring your knees in tight. Caution: the pelvic thrust will really drive you insa-a-a-ane.

Some of you will have noticed that we've updated our profile pictures on social media, and the art style looks a bit different. We've added Chaosmauser as a regular GI artist - we love his cyberpunk style and thought it would be perfect with the theme. Look out for more Bobbie art from him soon!

Hello friends,
We're getting very close to being able to reveal our theme for 2026, so let's have a little contest!
Whoever can guess the theme gets a prize (this may lead to multiple people getting prizes). The prize may not necessarily be good, or it may be exactly what you always dreamed of.
