I'm not sure where it lives at the moment, but at some point I downloaded an MMRPG episode guide that has been really useful. (Havard I'm guessing you know the link) Thing is, the "Episode Listing" ends with Season 3, episode 68.

Is there any guide list that continues through all the Season 4 episodes?

Hmmm...I am not sure which one you are talking about Aldarron.

There is an , but that only went to ep 17.

Then there was Rafael's organization of the .

Responding to my own topic.

I just found the guide you are talking about detailing ep 1-68. I think this came from the old ZGG Website (probably the 2nd version at DABlackmoor.com).

I don't think anyone ever made a guide for the remaining episodes.

We could make one and simply copy the intro text for each episode, but it would take some time.

Any volunteers?

I have too many projects as it is :) , but if someone does update the guide it would be awesome if it actually contained a tad more additional information - a sentence or two saying just what is in it. The official descriptions are always a bit vague.

Seems like Yaztromo would be an natural guy to volunteer...... :twisted:

I've added the original Episode Guides for seasons 1-3 to help with this work. As Aldarron says, it would be nice to include a revised version with more details on the actual plot.

I decided to split the guide into 3 PDFs.

The division between the seasons is different than what is presented here at The Comeback Inn, but I've kept the division used in the original document.

Also, it is worth noting that episodes that were never written have summaries in these documents...(!).

Great input Sheridan!

This is a really good starting point.

If we want to expand on the descriptions as Aldarron suggested, we can simply make additions to what is listed here.

There are also a few episodes with descriptions missing including some that I haven't released yet.
