In the dawn of a new day, a young knight decided to rethink his ways. Taking destiny by his own hands, he decided to walk a lone path in his quest for glory and recognition in the name of the sacred Land of V. 

Such path wasn't easy, and the knight himself, aware of it, requested no assistance. For years, he was the only one carrying the standard of a new way of life. Many wanted to join him, but none were prepared. His very first follower wasn't able to resist even a month in this hard life, and the knight was again alone.

Eventually, the knight became a legend, and acknowledging the bravery and pride of those who wanted to follow him, he created the Round Table. Finally, several young apprentices joined him, attempting to follow his teachings to one day become a legend themselves.

This way of life is known as Game Guide Writer. The legendary knight goes by the name Laian. And here, we pay tribute to those who have followed his teachings and those who still strive to one day ascend to legends.

Current Round Table Knights:

Laian : since December 2011, crafting his legend as he walks towards an end that is still out of sight.

Eniitan : The leader of the new generation that joined in June 2014, took a path of meditation in October 2014 after seeing many of her comrades losing faith just to come again in May 2016 with renewed energies and ready to craft her own legend.

EX Palen : No one saw him coming when he joined in July 2014, but his philosophy of hard work has laid roots within the Land of V as he tirelessly walks towards his ambitious dreams.

Former Knights:

bombchu link : The legendary knight's first follower embarked on his journey in April 2013, but in May 2013 he returned to his home life. If he was overwhelmed by the knight's story or if he just wasn't prepared will remain a mystery.

MattyIce : A member of the new generation that joined in June 2014, he was one of the first to leave the Table for a lack of faith in October 2014.

Furret : The young knight who joined in June 2014 had dreams beyond the Table, so he left on October 2014 to renew himself, even changing his own name, to devote his life to another state of the Land of V.

SUX2BU : The last recruit of June 2014 fought bravely against all obstacles and inclemencies, but eventually succumbed and retired from the Table in May 2016.

Fireproof : The crowd's favorite for the July 2014 harvest made a big impression with his work, but after retiring from the Table in October 2014 he eventually was forced into exile away from the Land of V.

sonikku : The first man who tried to approach Guide Writing into average life in July 2014, fought hard to demonstrate his ideals until it all became too much for him in August 2015.

Livid Pain : A belated entry in August 2014, she didn't live up to the expectations and eventually retired due to excessive weight over her shoulders in December 2014.

janus : Hired in May 2015 with an impeccable record at writing, he vanished in April 2016 after several cases tainting his honor started arising.

ZeroTails : The youngest ever recruit was a breeze of fresh air into the Table in May 2015, but the path of a Guide Writer knows nothing about age and it eventually became too harsh of a path for such a young talent that explored new horizons after retiring in February 2016..

My part was so important it required not one, but TWO periods. I feel special now <3

And wooo for being the youngest ever recruit and now the possibly youngest ever local. And part of the reason I retired was also because I've lost motivation due to something that happened the month before... (writing when you don't have the motivation is hard brah, and the picture embedding tool also decided to stop working for me too). I've tried several times to try and write a guide again after I stepped down, but I've always gotten discouraged. Maybe I should try again where I first started, to try and get myself the motivation I need again, hm... (hint hint)

Love this thread <3

Shame I had to leave the Table but things got too busy for me IRL.
Glad I'm still able to look through the window and be involved in a different way.

I really and truly love this thread. It makes it special for the guiders only former ones and present as well. It also makes me to think back of the days in the past and to see what has changed from then till now. Its amazing what one a few can do right? And I think the game guiders had made that to happen in each of their own special and unique ways.

EX Palen : I really appreciate the summons for me in your thread. And I was very honored to be apart of that new generation led of course by Enii Even though I spent a really short time with you fellow guide writers, I enjoyed it ever so much! I REALLY miss doing it, honestly. But my current job requires me to be active in the shop and outside ( FB is also part of my job to advertise products ). I wish I could find a way to free up some time and return to this legendary staff of writers...for now that will have to wait until further notice.

Perhaps I will make that unprecedented return someday...

Thanks again for the recognition sir!

ZeroTails : Maybe I should have used THREE periods, because it seems your story will be continued

I know how it is to lose motivation when things start failing. I had to ditch out 60 hours worth of gameplay in a Pokemon hack for making a wrong move that was impossible to predict, and that took a hit on me even to this day. Guides require so much detail and motivation that it's hard to consistently keep the pace.

Furret : Well, you still are involved with us. Remember that we shaped together the current rulebook guide writers must abide by. It's like you're our hidden spy in the higher positions of the Vizzed ranks

Eniitan : For the long time it has been around, this role has had the most exclusive number of members. That alone makes it stand out from the other roles, besides the insane amount of work it needs month after month.

MattyIce : Not everyone is ready to leave everything behind and embark in the life of a guide writer. You had the skills, but it's not enough to fulfill the demands of this tough way of life.

Just like nobody saw me coming (and looking at what I've achieved it's hard to think I came out of thin air), you could totally cause a sensation in the future if you're able to come back.

EX Palen : Yep that is pretty much true I don't think I worded it out right. But thanks for remind me and correcting me on that. Its the one thing that's special about the game guiders. There's something not many positions can hold from the likes of its uniqueness.

This is a cool idea indeed, Honestly i have thought about becoming a guide writer several times.. The issue would be that i'd be posting guides that are a bit too optimistic.. Like Final Fantasy 7 etc... ah well x3.. If staff apps open again i might just give it a shot... 

Tyrian Delirium : You know...I planned on making a guide for that in the past. But. I haven't been able to beat the weapons. That's the only problem. Thus why I have not done that. I've already done the chocobo sidequest part but not you know the main full story. I'm willing to let you take that if you want too.

I've just forgotten to get around by trying to beat the weapons. I know I did for one of them. But its emerald I was so close to beating and ruby is just plain annoying. '-'

Yes, I know I have not lived up to the reputation a game guide writer is expected. But with my present workload - I have a classical 9 to 5 job - I would probably have needed to quit the staff position anyway.

However it does not stop me from writing guides (I still want a few Tour de Vizzed points!) I have posted so many videos (upon which I base my guides) that I will not run out of ideas for a long time. Stay tuned!
