    Hi Steven,

    Never thought anyone would want my master list. For now, I have copied the sorted portion to a Google Doc Candlekeep-Realmstalk. It is missing about 40 entries (recently posted entries and entries that contain edits that I still need to make to this forum thread), but I should have it up to date with my master list after I post my next update. It is up to date as of this edit.

    Let me know if something is not working with the Google Doc.
