"WIP" is one thing, but the rate of updates is such that it's impossible to expect any one person to manually edit it all in on a regular basis.
We need to be able to set up a shared document (preferably spreadsheet) that can be edited by several trustworthy people (can't have it entirely open or it could get ruined by accident or ill-intent), but publicly viewable to all. Anyone know a tool that can do that? Google Docs? Some kind of wiki?
I have to agree, it is not fair to Chilly to have to update it alone. I think Google Docs would be a good option for that-and yes a trustworthy group would be best.
Maybe someone better with Google Docs could help, but I think it is pretty straight forward from what I have used previously and am looking at now. It would just take a while to get the list together as it should be updated as it is uploaded. I wouldn't mind putting the list together since I have time on my hands while getting those rings. Here is a quick mock-up of what I am thinking and how we would protect it.

I am not sure if it would be easier to have to big documents with regular monster and special, or a separate list for each type of monster. The separate lists would require more start-up by adding all the editors multiple time, but I think would look cleaner in the opening post.
This is just my idea, if anyone knows a better way to do this that would be good. Regardless, we do need a better way to update the farms, especially since farms can change pretty quick.
