The stickler. It's not going to get my chain line bang on, but it will help. How much does it matter that my chain is super straight? I didn't mind spending money to get a decent frame, having one, I no longer feel the need to spend money.

What are you using for cranks and wheels?

A list of you parts will go a long way to prevent the likely flame war.
I like this idea, I have tons of extra washers, I probably should buy some spacers though because I doubt my washers would keep my chainring true. Shimano 105 cranks, Vuelta Zerolite (cheapies).
