No problem. I'll work on the Book of Dragons next.
You guys pull in the errata too? There was a missing column from their progression table that went up on the website.

Added Book of the Planes, Quint. Sorcerer, and reference to Quint. Monk.
Also changed the format of the first post, to make updates more easy. (Although I won't be making an update for two weeks.)

Quite a few changes to the wiki since I last updated everyone. Last we I was filling in for another co-worker and didn’t get a chance to do much updating. This week and next I expect I’ll be tied up with the madness of the Christmas season. Still work progresses.
New to the Grand OGL Wiki:
1) To update people about changes as they happen quicker I’ve started a twitter account.
2) The Book of Dragons has been started. I’ve pulled the open game content from the Desolution of Dragons, Dragon Feats and Mortal Miscellary chapters. ( I might put up the Lambton Worm tonight as well if I have the time, though I hear Kobold Quarterly has one already up, curses!).
3) Open Game Content from Feuerring – Gateway to Hell and Zahhak - The Ashen Waste of the Abyss has been posted.
4) Monster Encyclopaedia has be stripped of all monsters from A to R with part of S done as well.
5) Quint Druid II is sitting in my email waiting for me to do something with it. I probably won’t get to it until the first day of Reviewmas.
6) The Quintessential Sorcerer is complete as well.
Again I would like to continue to thank Alex, Bill, Joel, John, Mike, Shane, Yair and any other helpers I’ve missed, our publishing partners, Crothian and the 1368 visitors to the site in the month of November.
If you have products you want reviewed, content you want to donate or requests feel free to send me an email or leave a comment at my lj.
We are one week from the 12 Days of Reviewmas Event. So far we’ve had a remarkable response from several publishers so that starting on the 22nd of December we will be bringing in one new review a day starting with Broken Swords & Battered Shields. Others products include Behind the Spells: Darkness, Modern Mayhem, Critter Cache 2: Prehistoric Beasts, Zobeck Gazetteer, Lands of Darkness #3 - Woods of Woe, Warcosm, Genre Division 3E (prerelease), Road to Revolution #2: The Bloody Fix and Shadows of Cthulhu. That leaves me with three more days needing products, if I don’t hear from other publishers I’ll go to my recently purchased pile.
Material has been going up slowly as I’m finishing up the school year before Christmas, but Ink & Quill from DragonWing Games and Planetouched Feats from Reality Deviant Publications have been uploaded.
It sounds like my fellow GOWers are also swamped. My goal is to have Quint Druid II and a couple of products from our new contributor Fifth Element Games completely up on the wiki by Sunday plus any other material that was sent in to me for upload.
The 1st Day of Reviewmas brings us a new review of visioNation Studio’s fantasy toolkit “Broken Swords & Battered Shields” and four classic reviews by Crothian of “Another 101 Mundane Treasures” by Ronin Arts, “City Tiles” by Alea Publishing, “Paper Figures: Military Orders” by Alea Publishing and “Aquatic Hazards” by Reality Deviant Publications. Every day from now until January 3rd we will be adding one review of a new RPG product and four classic reviews to the Grand OGL Wiki.

New Content:
Kicking off the new content section of the wiki is the stats for the Mistress of the Web (written for that Beta system. This aranea has been a staunch ally and confident of the elven nations and has been trained as an arcane archer. She needs a background, if you want to write it contact me at gedakm@gmail.com and I’ll add it to her stats and add you to the section 15.

Content Updates
* Mike sent over some more the Quintessential Human today, but it being Christmas I never got around to updating the site with it. Some of Fifth Element Game’s ”Completist’s Guide to Humanoid Characters” did get posted today.
