Brynjolf disappeared and quest bugged in Skyrim?
I'm nearly finished with the Dampened Spirits quest. All that's left is to talk to Brynjolf, but he seems to have disappeared from the game. The quest-marker takes me to the graveyard entrance of the Thieves Guild, but then turns around and leads me straight out of the door that I just came in through.
I've tried duplicating Brynjolf's character, since I know about the "Brynjolf completely disappears from the game" glitch, but it keeps saying something about a parameter Id or whatever. Same goes for when I try to either teleport to him or teleport him to me.
Any ideas? I'm really frustrated.

First, try to go back to an earlier save - I've read that going back to BEFORE you talk to Maven at the end of the quest can reset it and he'll appear.
If that doesn't work, make sure you scour the entire Flagon and the Cistern for him -- sometimes he's hiding in the training room (where all the chests are at). I've read that people find him in random places within the Guild. It's kind of dark down there too so I'd try using a candlelight spell to give you more light. He might just be hiding.
Bryn is never outside of the Flagon or the cistern until he joins you at Nightingale Hall except when he is SUPPOSED to disappear (to "go looking for you") after Mercer attacks you. So he should be in Guild unless there is a bug.
As to using console commands, I have heard that they can sometimes bug the system even worse than just trying to reset the game or restart from an earlier save.
