I've read some of DNA's other stuff. Aside from the Guide, I've read both books in the Dirk Gently series, and The Salmon of Doubt. The end of SOD made me cry.
I'm not sure how you mean 'rival', but I think Dirk Gently's was a great series. I'm not sure it's as widely known as H2G2, however, probably because it doesn't exist in as many media formats as H2G2. Anyway, it's a great read, and anyone who hasn't yet read it, should.
Unfortuanatly, I havn't yet had the pleasure of reading The Meaning of Liff, or The Further Meaning of Liff, for that matter. One of these days when I have time and money I shall get my grubby hands on a copy, and enjoy it thoroughly. I fully intend to use the words as much as possible in everyday conversation. Just cause I like getting funny looks from people.
And as far as the depressing lack of posts on the part of some members, I have no idea. There once existed a certain dignity in attaining at least one dent of posts, and there was a thread for celebration of dent-reaching, but it seems to have died. Maybe someone could revive it on reaching their first dent of posts? Edit: Wow. I just went and counted. 9 pages of members, and only 7 have at least 42 posts.

Tallest Red I haven't read any of his other works yet. The libraries I've been to don't have it (they didn't even have H2G2... NOTHING AT ALL!) I'm waiting until I get a job so I can actually buy them. gonk As for the lack of posts, I'm hoping it's a temporary aftereffect of the moviegasm this guild had experienced with all the excitement there was right before, during, and soon after it was released. Right now it's like the laying around smoking the post-moviegasm cigarette. Hopefully that'll wear off soon enough and more posts will be made. xd (I for one have been silently active in my other guild, monitoring posts and such looking for n00bs and potential mods --n00bs not being the potential mods of course).. the other guild has a big n00b problem and I think it's getting sorted out.) (And another note in parentheses: If anyone was wondering why that Zaphod Beeblebrox crew member person had no posts yet was crew.. that's my mule. xd I keep a mule around as a just in case thing.)
Ooohh, good word. Moviegasm. I like it. And good idea with the mule. Never know if it'll be needed. 3nodding
Good luck with your n00b problem!
