I can't get any of your links passed the first to work. Blogspot says I'm unable to access it.
fixed, sorry about that
One of the many reasons that I publish my (completed) Guides in .pdf format is to prevent people from tampering with them and vandalising the material.
Of course, my Paladin guide is probably due for an update...

I had to take a hiatus on working on the Mystic Theurge guide due to work, but progress has resumed again and I am nearing the point where I will begin to branch out from the hardcovers into the campaign setting and player companion books. This... This project was much larger than originally anticipated.
And apparently the link to my mirror of the Jargonaut guide is also broken.

Broken Zenith, take a look at this thread:
Pathfinder Complete Compilation Books of Classes, Feats & Spells.
Someone put a ton of work into that.

Hi everyone,
So, I would love to update my guides to Sorcerer bloodlines and races more often, but I just no longer have the time with having a 2-month old little girl. I was wondering if there is someone out there who would be interested in helping me keep these guides up to date? All you'd need is a Google account so that I can add you as an editor on pathfindercommunity.net. Is anyone interested?

Cartmanbeck,
What would be involved? I don't have quite the system mastery that you do. BTW, I truly admire both your guides and reference them all the time. Beautiful work.
Congratulations on your little girl! Spend all the time with her you can.
Hmm
All it would really involve is some light HTML work, some copy-pasting, and just enough knowledge of Pathfinder to give some suggestions on what might be good combinations of abilities. I would absolutely be available to answer questions/give suggestions, I just don't have the time to mess with the editing/copying/pasting part anymore.
I appreciate your kind words about my guides. Those were the first real "official" things I wrote for Pathfinder, and now I'm an actual freelancer for Paizo! :-D
I can handle some light HTML work and copy-pasting, but I'm more of an editor than a developer. Feel free to PM me if that's a skill set that you would find useful

Good idea, Cartmanbeck. Honestly, I'd enjoy someone to help me work with my guides too. I'm slowly getting back into the PF spirit (altered my blog to my old character name, a few other things), and I'd like to get some feedback on a few things.
1. Would everyone rather see me work on an Investigator guide, or work on updating my old guides?
Two. Would anyone like to help out with helping me keep up with my older guides (as well as SOMEDAY finishing the Synth guide?)
III. Would someone like to help me work on some of my homebrew (Invoker and modified TOB classes) later?
It really requires me to be in a groove to get anything done, and now that I'm slowly getting back to it, I'd like to do something, although motivation is a fickle mistress. Message me if you're interested in any of these things.
1. Would everyone rather see me work on an Investigator guide, or work on updating my old guides?
I know I'd love to see and investigator guide out of you for sure. It has rapidly become my favorite class and your other guides are incredibly useful. The one by Tark is definitely a start, but it's quite bare-bones.
I'm currently debating whether to put the working copy of my Mystic Theurge guide on the forums (which covers mostly the PRD content, and is not yet complete in item coverage), or wait until it is fully complete to post it. Granted, if I wait it will be some time before it is posted. It has taken several months to get this far, and it is well over a hundred pages long already. I fully intend to cover every book I or my regular players own, which is most of them, but that will likely take several more months. Would anyone be willing to review the current copy, or should I go ahead and post what is done?

This is a guide-addendum, meaning I couldn't consider it a full guide, as it borrows a lot from the Alchemist guide. Rather, this is more of an 'update' guide to the changes between it and the Alchemist, since the Rogue can suck it.
It will include opinions and advice on Investigator styled choices and such, but with how much similar ground the two cover, it would be foolish to try and retread the same ground.
What I'm looking to do here is show the differences, point out Investigator only ideas and concepts, as well as inform to the best of my ability. This guide will be HEAVILY tied to my Alchemist guide, which has just been updated with all the new extracts, new discoveries, and other fun things.

Wiggles, from what I've seen so far of it, your guide is more complete than 9/10 of the ones that have already been posted. It's been supremely helpful in getting an understanding of the MT. Go for it!

Thanks for the encouragement, I need that from time to time to get anything dome right.
On that note, I've decided to make the current version live, although I'm still working on it for an hour or so every day.

Angry Wiggles - Very happy that you finally put this up!
And one day I will get back to the synthesis guide...someday...at this point I feel like it's becoming more of a running joke to me though.

You never finish a guide. :-)
So the wait could be a while.Every new class, feat, spell, and so on can affect a guide, so something is always changing.

Hey, it is THEIR guide, it's really up to them if/when they want it included in something like this, not yours.You never finish a guide. :-)

Funny, I don't remember anyone asking when Harmor compiled the original set. He just grabbed links to them from the various threads on the website.
Knowing that, posting a thread with said guide on this site is tantamount to asking for it to be included here, all things considered.
Still, it does strike as a bit...in poor taste.
Anywho, BZ seems a rather amiable chap. I'm sure he'd take a guide down from his personal collection had Prototype or any other author asked.

While I can be accused of stealing their thunder, it was 8 days old when I mentioned it. Plenty of time for them to announce it.
As to their deciding not to include it in the Guide to the Guides, they are free to tell the maintainer not to include it. However, as long as it is not included, people will keep mentioning it to add it. The point of a guide is to be read. I think it quite unlikely anyone would want to be left out of the Guide to the Guides.

8 Days...
For some, plenty of time, others, such as those who just had a baby, is not nearly enough time.
A month would be a bit safer. Perhaps some authors would like their guides to have a month's worth of peer review with a small group of people before sending it out to the masses. While this message will probably not be read, we should be giving authors a comfortable month to announce it themselves.
Sorry for the misunderstanding, I had every intentions to have it as part of Guide to the Guides, I just wanted it in a bit more finished/polished state before I put it up for inclusion, that's all.

I understand that feeling. I sent one of the rougher drafts of the theurge guide to Broken Zenith for proof reading in July. Granted, it was only about half of it's current length, then. Thw only reason it's posted now is at the urging of my local pathfinder friends, who wanted to be using my notes months ago, and my wife, who is tired of hearing me worry about whether or not people will find use in it. I do worry about these things a lot.
I feel like I'll still be writing this time next year.

I'm happy to take anything down that you guys like. However, unless you say otherwise, I'll be assuming that as long as you post a guide somewhere, you are interested in people seeing it and thus inclusion on the Guide to the Guides.
If somebody sends me a guide for proofreading but doesn't want me to put it up, of course I won't. I looked over Wiggles' excellent guide a few months ago, but am only putting it up now at his request.
Cevah's been great about sending me links that otherwise wouldn't be included, so I, and I'm sure the authors to those most of those guides, are very appreciative. If you want to post your guide but don't want it to be included in the guide to the guides yet, just put indicate that in the thread and I'll happily wait for your cue. Otherwise, I'll still keep my eyes peeled and will appreciate Cevah's work.

Here's one I worked up recently: Guide to alchemical items. It's particularly relevant to alchemists of course, since they can craft these things and therefore save on money. But there's good stuff in it for everyone.

Hey, you mind if I throw your guide in my alch/invest guides (credited to you of course).
I personally enjoy guides that link to other guides, as it gets us all more traffic and helps players understand things from multiple perspectives. I've personally always wanted to collaborate with someone on a guide (turns out I snaked the idea of a guide for alchs from a bunch of people on GITP who were working on one too), so it'd be nice to have alternative perspectives on things.
Also Firebug is not purple for Alchemist, and I will fight you to the ultimate murder death on this.
I don't know if anyone knows but "Ginsu Master: A Ranger’s Guide to Two Weapon Fighting" is showing it is in the owners trash.
So may want to back it up or find out why the owner is removing it.
Someone need to write guides for Mounted Combat and Combat Maneuvers!! I would but I suck at stuff like that and I know there is always post with questions about those areas of the game.

I think this is the discussion. At least it mentions the guide in that post.

Thanks, Azten, but Angry Wiggles took care of it earlier. See this post.
It's always a good sign when a guide is getting multiple nominations, though.
