Ok, I think if any one way is acceptable under the license, the both are.
My preference is your first.

I think Faust raises a good point about the expanding s.15 problem
however.  Think this was something Martin was getting at as well (i.e. if
it's okay for Clark to require re-users to individually list each creature
in their s.15 why shouldn't Clark have to himself).  I'm wondering if it's
possible to make the credit issue something that is outside of the OGL.
It would lose the fact that re-users are *required* to include such credit
if you move to that approach however.  Essentially Clark would still have
the original credit block for each creature and then ask re-users to
include such credit block if the use a creature somewhere in the product.
Probably either with the creature itself or on the products main copyright
page (not s.15 of the OGL, but the normal explanation of copyright that
still should appear in an OGL product).  Just an idea.
