Announcement: Completion of the Index

This morning, I decided that I was going to finish the index, NO MATTER WHAT. So after a few hours of constant copy/pasting, linking, and cursing my past carelessness at properly titling documents, I can now present to everyone the complete index of study guides, which amount to approximately 200 guides.

As a result, whenever you need to find something, just look to the sidebar directly underneath the chatback badges for our index. :D
