Really not as many votes as it was needed to have true top 3 of winners, but...
Results of the contest !
THE MORE POINTS YOU HAVE, THE CLOSER YOU WERE TO FIRST PLACE IN ALL THE JURY'S VOTES
I. Getting started guide
First place
With a total score of 10 points
TAKAKASHI & YAMAKASHI BROTHERS
A complete guide, with a lot of accurate pictures, good advice and even explanations about advanced features like Namecolorizing. However, it lacks some informations about the good ways to start the game and to earn caps/experience.
Second place
With a total score of 6 points
RJ & BALTHASAR
A complete guide, with tons of informations, but unfortunately not always really accurate for beginners. This guide has more to do with a manual and we have been thinking that, even if it is really well written, it could have discouraged newcomers. More pictures would really have helped with this guide.
Third place
With a total score of 5 points
ARICVOMIT
A very well written guide, without any english mistakes, and containing useful informations. However, this guide doesn't go deep enough in explaining the game's mechanics and features.
II. Combat guide
First place
With a total score of 10 points
GORDULAN
Some inaccurate informations and lack of good pictures made this guide getting less points than it should have. However, it explains the combat system quite well. Too short guide, though.
Second place
With a total score of 9 points
AVORAL
A lot of text, not always useful, especially the endless part about SPECIAL. If you want to make the "perfect" build it seems like it is the best guide, however it wasn't really the goal of the combat guides. The end, with the "How to fight" part, is too short and inaccurate. But builds advice gave this guide more points.
Third place
With a total score of 6 points
Z0M2H14
Written for both loners and people fighting in teams, and from the point of view of different build "classes". It gives useful advices about combat. The text needs formating - pictures - and improved language, but informations are there.
III. Crafting guide
First place
With a total score of 7 points
DYLAN FRASER
Really understandable and avoiding to write useless information, this guide provides help about the basics of crafting, but it's sad that it recommends Shady Sands as a home.
Second place
With a total score of 6 points
NEXXOSFIN
This guide explore professions and ways to earn caps through crafting. It doesn't have pictures, unfortunately, but features good avice that balance the loss of pictures.
Third place
With a total score of 4 points
WICHURA
A perfect guide - about gathering. However, crafting system isn't just about gathering resources, so thsi guide loses a lot of points there - but the quality of the informations about gathering saved it and made it go to the 3rd place.
Note : The guides will be written on wiki on contributors' time. No complain about the time it takes will be valid.
