Bruce-when I post here you can be confident that I've updated.
In Quezer's case I updated 5 mintes after he posted!

mr hazmandoor-heh, sometimes I laught when musicians make up aliases for themselves. There's ex Iron Maiden and Samson drummer Thunderstcks who's my favourite!

I thought Loony's putting two as joint 1st was a dirty trick, but I let it pass.

And if you're gagging to think up of a list of top 5s, wrack your brains! Roll a dice or something!

Okay, there is life in here! I'd grown slightly worried that this had become unfashionable all to suddenly!

The votes are updated, and I will be adding Jimi X's idea as soon as I can find a way to made it slightly less unwieldy. Having a name followed by lots of numbers is not pretty.
As you may have seen, I have started linking to articles about the guitarists on here, starting with Eric Clapton. Initially I was going to have it work like the Animated Heroes website. On there, the hero that has accumilated the most points over the month gets a page written about him. Here, the guitarist with the most votes over a week will have a page linked.
However, due to the sheer size of the list, I may not bother doing it like that, and just link to articles if they are there.

Anyway, anyone want to write articles about one or more of these dudes?

One last thing. If anyone sees somebody on the list twice, tell me immediatly! I'd hate to forget names and keep on adding them every time they get a vote.

Thank you and tell your friends about this!

Hey everyone, if your favourites are already up there then you can still vote for them!
We want your honest favourite top 5, so don't be swayed by anybody or anything!

Needless to say, I've updated this.
