actually, none of the guides that were submitted for the contest are here.

Thank you, Indigo for taking the time to put this together. Now I can delete several bookmarks. This would be a good sticky thread.

This is incredible. You win Kate brownie points for the week! Could you put the beginner guides before the Adventure guides? I just want to be sure beginners see the noob stuff first. That would be great!

Yes, at least some of them are. Such as the one you did with Jigsaw, Graywolfs Resource Calculater, Painterlys map.....I do not have the list of winners handy, so I could not simply add those easily.

Actually I did this for myself, because I was getting sooo very frustrated with my own bookmarks, as well as realizing that all these posts are scattered to the four winds, so to speak. In any case, I'm going to seriously take care of this thread, and I do hope it get's a sticky, so I can find it easy...LOL.

Bah! Brownie points don't pay the rent! Hehe. Seriously though, it was my pleasure to get this up and ready to go. I figured somebody would beat me to it, but when I wanted one the most, such a post was not to be found. So voila! I made the change you requested. (I was keeping everything alphabetical). And if you feel any other changes are in order, please let me know.

Nicely done! Now I have a link to pass to the new players instead of telling them to pick up a guide. Kate, can we get links to work in chat?

links work in chat - just did it -
+1 for sticky this post :)

Absolutely Fantastic!
Thank You!

only looks like it does...did anyone else see it nemo?

Simply remove the "http://" and post the link in chat. People can copy and paste from there. It's not perfect, but a good work around for now. I usually, just click on the person's name in chat, and send links via mail.

This will be very helpful. Nice organizing skills! :)

Just in time for the migration of a few uh..many? new players coming into our fold during Open Beta. :)

Is there any way to start over. Basically start from level 1.

Not at present. But do not despair! I felt much the same way, and am very very glad I did not start over. When your new it's not a major deal to repair mistakes you have made. If your stuck, ask people in Global Chat for assistance. There is a special HELP chat channel specifically for that.

This list is a big hit! Wish they could send this link out to the confirmation email so new players have a chance to look at it before getting started.

Yea, but a lot of people do not RTFM (read the fracking manual), so.....In any case, I got a couple of new things to add, which should be up sometime today.

well, that's the same lot that will get the in-game mail and say NICE...I'll read it later @-@

Hey, no prob. I started the list as a .txt file for myself, and then was like hmmm, maybe I ought to share this. And here we are! Hehe.

Thanks Indigo, this makes finding help a lot easier.

Hey, not a problem. I started out with a .txt file, just for some notes for myself, and realized it was just the kind of thing people would like to have. So here we are, heh.
