(In my opinion, requesting money in an FAQ is just shameful.)

But how does that dictate the quality of someones work? Assuming you are voting solely down to that reason...

From: Kirby021591 | Posted: 7/7/2005 11:41:03 PM | Message Detail
No, I just felt I should add this. DEngel is quite good, but not as much so as Meowthnum1. Looking through their guides, Meowthnum wins on formatting and writing style for me. To me, this means superior quality of guides, even if DEngel adds a lot to GameFaqs in way of new guides for obscure, unFAQed games. After all, writing for games that have no guides for them already does not affect the quality of the guide itself at all, now does it?

Unfortunately, my writing is too inconsistent (to the reader who does not check dates, anyway).

2 - ASchultz
34 - Kain Stryder (sidenote: You guys remember that long conflict we had with Spannett?)
15 - JChristopher (he takes too much **** for his Starcraft guides, which are incredibly good)
47 - Dark Vortex
[abstain]
26 - THayes

...there are two of them?

2 - ASchultz (Astro gets my vote for the majority of this field... but not in this case. Schultz just has that "I will shred the very hex itself in the pursuit of the FAQ" thing going on, though Astro is no stranger himself to in-depth work. Tis too bad that these finalists from tourney #5 have to face-off right out of the gate).

34 - Kain Stryder (Although Kain is not without his faults, I still can not believe that FF III FAQ. It is truly one of the more offensive on the eyes FAQs on the site. However, coupled with most his FAQs being a foriegn language, I am unable to consider him for the vote).

50 - MNeidengard (JChris still has that god awful filler left over in his FAQs, making me ponder what his signal to noise ratio is [I am relatively certain he would never get those FAQs accepted now as it]. Although MNeidengard lacks a bit in dividers, his set-up is still fine and easy enough to navigate).

47 - Dark Vortex (Although I dislike controller ASCII [not really necessary], DV wins this easily with a much better flow, solid format, and a surprisingly [never truly picked up on it] solid writing style. Good stuff DV).

7 - DEngel (All the love for Trace [PS Polly says hi!], but DEngel, the master of the old, the new, and the image FAQs, takes it. Trace is an awesome author who I love to co-author with).

26 - THayes (Tommy Hayes is another fellow that I would love to co-author with, but he is not likely to cross my gaming selection anytime soon. That said, Tom rules the school, writing in solid style and a fun format that gets it done).

10 - SOng (Purple Haze is surprisingly [again, not overly familiar with his work till just now] good at FAQing, but Scott Ong has just a bit too much of a writing flair, coupled with a solid format that carries the day. Keep writing though PH, you have opened my eyes to your skills).

Neither (no one really stands out for me).

-Zoop... Yes, I know why. I'm just being an ass. Can we have an IGN Guides tourny? Me kicking Brian in the noots? Noots because he's Canadian and they talk funny.
