> Could you please link me to one of the more accesible googolical papers?

I do not know more accessible papers. If you allow just accessible ones, here are examples of papers deeply related to googology. Please pick up one which you like.
 * TON
 * Hydra games for recursively Mahlo
 * OCF with reflection
 * Laver table
 * Estimation of the period appearing Laver's table

> From what I've read in your posts and your profile description I guess you have sufficient knowledge to write such a paper but I don't know if you want to put your time in this.

I have already written a manuscript (in japanese) with more than 70 pages devoted to the proof of the termination of pair sequence system, but do not intend to submit it to a journal.

> Would you be intersested in helping someone else write one/mentoring?

Actually, I am helping others to write down precise definitions. See the following lists of my contributions: The reason why I wrote them is because there are monstrously many serious mathematical mistakes in this wiki. Writing a precise argument is very difficult for amateur mathematicians. Writing a paper is much more difficult than it.
 * List of common mistakes in googology
 * Guideline on how to use large cardinals
 * Full references on ordinal notations with large cardinals
 * Relation between an OCF and an ordinal notation
 * Evaluation of googological analysis
 * and many other blog posts in Japanese

Even if a googologist submit a manuscript after reading how to write in a formal way for months, I am 95% certain that it will be rejected. The result will be that the author, the refereees, the editors, and so on just cost precious time for this sad judgment. It is not happy. In order to acquire ability to write down paper, they need years to study.

For example, I read a manuscript written by a googologists here. The author said that it costed more than half year. However, the content was densely wrong. I pointed out many mathematical serious mistakes, the author could not even understand why they are mistakes... In googolgy, amateur mathematicians use mathematical stuffs whose precise definitions they do not know. It might not cause problems when they just create googological stuffs. On the other hand, when they write a paper, it actually causes problems. They have no idea how to fix errors, or even why errors are errors.

As a consequence, honestly, I would like others to spend time for what they are actually good at. Googological stuffs generated by googologists are great.
