I don't think Gordon is annoying at all, provided you know how to plan things well. I mean, I have managed to get the Clive quest while still getting all 108 stars in time to save Nanami AND completing the McDohl sidequest BEFORE getting all the stars. The way I usually do it is to ensure that I talk to Gordon when going to get Kasumi/ Valeria and then my second trip to Gregminster (near the end of the game) I have ALL the requirements for Lorelai, Gordon, Sasuke, Mondo and McDohl met. That way you aren't wasting time and it is really quite easy to meet all the requirements provided you keep a piece of paper handy to write your trades down.

For me all the characters with an element of 'random' were the ones that annoyed me. Having to find those Nameless Urns, Opals and get Landis all rather got on my nerves.

Bob?

The only annoying thing about Bob is my incessant attempts to recruit him before the Luca battle.

I have never succeeded, but he will join pretty much straight afterwards...

Oulan was also annoying, I keep forgetting that you have to talk to the old lady first...
In a similar vein I was also having trouble with Ayame in S3 last time through, as I had forgotten you had to talk to Watari in the castle first.

The most annoying character to recruit is Crowley because I really did not know where to find him; I almost lost hope finding him. At first, I thought he was in Neclord's castle since there was a strange looking sculpture at the third floor, I thought maybe I can break it with the help of the blacksmiths, but when I took them there nothing happened (I wonder what is the purpose of the sculpture). Anyway, I then went to the cave the one behind the Qlon temple and began my long search until I noticed the difference in the walls, after entering it I found him at last.

The second one is Clive in Suikoden1, he was so annoying I had to enter the inn several thousands of times before he shows up.

About Gordon(S2) the easiest way to recruit him is to buy everything he has then sell it to him, this way may take a lot of time but trust me it is more easiest than coming and going from Grigminister to see if he will join you.

With Landis, I did not have a hard time getting him. I do not know why maybe I am lucky since he joined me at the first time I passed the forest with Hugo.

Therefore, these are the ones that gave me a hard time.

Bugg....all the way from page one...What you said about Stallion only being recruitable after Greenhill is true. When you go to recruit him he mentions running away from Greenhill. That I do remember quite well. However, it could very well be possible to have that good of a castle by then.

In S1, Nameless urn was an ass to me. Thus, Jappa gets my vote as most annoying. I hated Clive as well... Somehow, he just doesn't appear... <_<

In S2, Gordon wasn't that hard. Ancient text and Crystal balls are the way to go. Although it IS annoying when you miscalculate, walk all the way to Greg, and find yourself a few potch short. So yeah, he probably is the most annoying.

In S3, Landis hated me... He was even more annoying to recruit than about three of the squirrels in S2. For some reason, he just wouldn't appear... I fell asleep while pressing the same buttons over and over and over again...

Another highly annoying one also from S3 is Billy. ARGH!!!!! The first play, i stupidly forgot to save, and lost to him. After that, i couldn't find a single FRIGGIN statue to place!!! ANd worst still, when i finally win a Goddes statue from lottery, i discover that only S ranked statues can be placed there. God, was i annoyed... Guess what, Alanis, Melville and Eliot are my last three SODs to recruit aside from Luc and co.

For me it would be a tie between Stallion and the Chinchorin characters. Stallion because I hate to run from battles especially the easy ones but you have to just to get that clown who isn't really worth it in my book. And the Chinchorin characters because one time I spent more than an hour trying to get to the point where I made enough money in the game.

Two good ways to clock up the runs for recruiting Stallion are:

Squirrel Recruitment!
I always take Riou and Mukumuku for a start, and don't stop till I have a full party of squirrels. As i generally do this when the enemies are a bit harder, i find i generally run from most battles ( except those flowers that NEVER attack... ).

Matilda Levelling, Humphrey and Futch
This rarely gets me all the way to beating Stallion, but when you enter this area early in the game, you'll be running from everything except a single bird thing. This is further true as you try to get your entire party leveled and not dead around this area.

Using one or both of these methods I can generally recruit Stallion on the first attempt.

---- edit ----
Actually now that I think on it, the squirrels and Hump / Futch are also annoying to recruit. Humphrey and Futch because if you miss them when chasing Miklotov, then you can't get the good ending, and the squirrels just absorb a lot of time.

Here`s some advice to anyone who has trouble with Billy`s card game...I got it from the Goppu FAQ at GameFAQs:

Just play your cards in order, from A to King. It might look like you`re going to lose in the beginning, but you`ll always win doing this. At least it worked for me when I did this to get the Prosperity Tunic for Chris and later for Geddoe.

I always find it annoying when I have to do the annoying quest to recruit Hix and Tengaar in S2.

You could make it less annoying by either waiting to finish the quest after getting both Viki and the Blinking Mirror, or bring Stallion so that you would be able to run in the world map.
