Now that we’ve done this once already, the process should be a bit smoother, eh? I’m going to post a quick summary of the posts we’ve seen from round two here, with links to each article (as well as links to each other’s previous post), and you’ll be able to select two more authors to vote off Hunter Island.

Now, because a few submissions received decidedly waspish comments this round, apparently this is more important to reiterate than I previously thought: keep your comments respectful! I’m not in the mood to tolerate jerks here. My authors have worked hard, and deserve courtesy at the very least. Constructive criticism is one thing. Being a douche is quite another. I trust you to be able to discern the difference. If you can’t, I’ll start deleting comments (which is not something I’m fond of doing). That unpleasant business having been taken care of, lets get started!

Our Contestants

1. Gwolf

This round, Gwolf was assigned a guide article to Heroic Violet Hold. He gave us a quick run-through of the possible bosses that could spawn and how to deal with them, as well as a look at some of the loot we may have to look forward to from this instance. Gwolf’s first article, from round one, can be found here.

2. Qwikshot

Qwikshot was a late addition to the contest, joining us in round two as a substitute poster. I had a couple folks that were voted on to round two drop out and so I found myself with a couple assignments to fill. Qwikshot was kind enough to send me a very enthusiastic email explaining his interest in participating, and so I passed one of my open assignments on to him. You’ll find his first submission, a guide to Heroic Utgarde Pinnacle here.

3. Chris

Chris’s assignment for round two was to walk us through Heroic Utgarde Keep. While this instance is arguably one of the easiest and most straight-forward heroics available, Chris was able to spice things up a bit for us with a sly reference to one of my favorite movies. You’ll find his Heroic Utgarde Keep guide here, and his submission from round one is available here.

4. Imjorman

My second round two substitution, Imjorman was kind enough to take on my open Heroic Drak’Tharon Keep assignment. Like Qwikshot, Imjorman sent me a belated but very enthusiastic email expressing his interest in participating in the contest, and with folks from round one dropping like flies on a Tauren patty, who was I to deny him? You’ll find his first submission to the contest here.

5. Sabiba

Sabiba’s assignment this round was to take us on a journey through Heroic Ahn’kahet, one of the most difficult heroics to new 80s available. In this article, Sabiba walks us through a couple quick quests to pick up to prepare for Ahn’kahet, as well as the bosses we’ll encounter and some loot we might be interested. You can find this round’s submission here, and Sabiba’s submission from round one here.

6. Dervisch

This was a last-minute edit to this post, so pay close attention! After bungling things rather badly, I received a comment on the original version of this post (which you’ll find below) showing that Dervisch had actually submitted his assignment for round two on time, but I simply missed it. So, I’ve posted his guide to Heroic Azjol-Nerub and reset the voting poll. You’ll find his first round submission here.

Voting

Just with last time, you’ll sellect two authors to vote off Hunter Island this round, using the poll below. The poll will remain open until Friday, at which point voting will officially be closed and results will be sent out to my authors so we can begin round three, the final round!

Remember, keep your comments courteous. I was disappointed to see a couple folks who couldn’t keep a civil tongue in their mouths surface during this round, so I’m in no mood to be lenient here. I will delete comments that I find are a tad too harsh. Bash me, if you will, or provide constructive criticism to my authors, but I will not tolerate folks being mean to my authors. They’ve worked very hard, and they’re new at this and still learning. Unless you think you can do better and are willing to put your money where your mouth is, be kind to them. This is something I’m prepared to get assy about if need be, lol. You’ve been warned! Play nice, or mommy’s pulling this car over!

Now, on to what you’ve all been waiting for: the poll!
