 Slimiest Amanita EVER!

Amanita slimocybe? No, not the ones in the link.
These  :
I'm not describing it other than the dimensions and peripherals.
Cap: 14 cm
Stipe: 16 cm long, 2.5 cm wide
No noticable odor.
Growing near Northern Red Oak.
Has anyone seen a cap on an Amanita this slimy?

Those are pretty slimy, I've never seen one that was that slimy, Amanita frostiana?
Are the short gills truncate?

I'm not doubting you, but you know what they say around here.
Post pics or it didn't happen. 
I've pored over everything I know and I have NO clue what it is. Do you?
Find another pic like that on the Internet. I've looked; they aren't there.

I've seen wet Amanitas before but I've never seen anything like this. It was like snot running off the cap. What is the exact spelling of var guesonii? I tried Goggling it but came up with nothing.

Thanks. It obviously isn't that although I saw one pic that was slightly slimy.

Thanks weiliiiii, if I was going to name it, I'd call it Amanita citrina.
Kuo says, "Cap: slimy when wet," and "Stem: and has a rim or gutter on the upper edge [of the volva].
Check out picture #4 and you can see the rim (gutter).
I know some features are missing and some are a little out of character, but overall I think it fits.

Yeah, that's slimy, but not nearly as slimy as the one I found.
Where's that pic from?

Yeah, I can see that. But you can actually see the slime dripping off of mine.
What did you figure yours was? Amanita citrina too?

Nice, that's what *I* was looking for. 
So far I've found lots of good stuff but only one fruiting of Oysters. Damn, I love those things.
