help/user guide voting

There are quite a few guides available now, so I'll leave it up to the community to decide, primary and a secondary votes available.
If anyone has a guide they want to be entered post it here and PM the link (or pm the link if its already posted somewhere). The voting wont be reset so the faster you post and send me the link the more chance you have.
I'm considering this a somewhat priority update so you will only have 3 days to vote before I close it off. Extensions may be a possibility, depending on the circumstance.
The winning guide will be looked over firstly of course.

I'm not locking the thread so you can discuss them here, hopefully it wont come to a chair throwing fest.

A composite is my view

Vlad's is straight to the point informational on basic navigation and such but lacks expansion on starting

Squire's is really in depth on each aspect and could be incorporated in a advanced guide as to not over whelm players?

Sam's is more main focused leading up to perhaps ascending? More contributing to choices leading to ascending

I would squeeze the goodness out of these three and then proof read it and then section them into "Basics", "Advanced" and "Well what to do now?"

Don't forget this can't really be about showing them how to play every inch of the game, and how to work there way to the top, they have to play their own hand.

Xeno's.
The only one which isn't riddled with either excessive information, copy-pasted silliness or grammatical pain-causing folly.
I used it when I started playing ascended, and it has helped me a lot.

Good luck, Sol!

Agree I just had a quick glance at all guides, some were too in depth for a novice. Need to apply the K.I.S.S principal.

The guide isn't a permanent fixture, it can be altered over time and probably will be, so you can take them with a grain of salt.
