Maybe you should stop killing potential followers?
People are just hating you in general, and blaming me for your murders(although the extra influence is delicious) I only killed 1/10 of the population, they should properly blame you for the .1/10 of the dying population

You don't know. I can tell you this. More than it costs to make a race. And also you will receive a tithe from them(of worship).

About the lesser god thing.
So...closer to 100 or 1,000? Closer to 300 or 700? I just need a ballpark; I don't want to screw up by misestimating the cost by a factor of five.

Bitching, I was thinking you were going to be mad about the whole making horrible abominations and siccing them on the popluace in order to draw out heros thing but whatevs.
The what?

Look at my newest action.
Nikalas commands his followers to travel with the fearlings and set up shop in small villages.lThey will keep the fearlings in hidden places nearby. When a hero emerges to fight the monsters and the "cult" they will test them to know their bravery and devotion. After all the fearlings are dead they will revel themselves to the hero and tell him that he has been judged worthy to join the religion and help the scared.
The God himself will appear to those who are scared as a kind stranger and inspire them to be brave.
The basic idea of Nikalas is that he is Choatic Good masquerading as Choatic Nuetral or Nuetral Evil.
Two things. One, I try not to judge actions until they occur. Two, you made that sound a lot worse than it seems to be.

Who is this aimed at?

EDIT:
Hey god of war, you should slap GWG in that other god game your playing, steal/ reduce power from him would be amazing, and your a higher tier at combat than him
...
...
That's metagaming to the extreme. Can't you at least bring this up in the right thread?

Let me put it this way. If you do something that would take more worship than you have, nothing happens. You lose a small amount of worship from wasted efforts, but you can only go negative from being attacked. If you have 0...sleepy time. You can't do SHIT for the next turn. Your angel can. A little. But not much; no real guiding force from you beyond your celestial dreams.

Wow this game took off fast.
See how my prophet is doing, see how many He has risen from UnDeath. Also check my Shoggoths. See if they're still worshipping me. Build strength by setting some Shoggoths on village nearest my prophet, then sending him in to UnDeath everything Death.

where?

Wyverns were completed in last update:

"Protogenos: Exhausting work, even for a god. But the creation of life is your domain, and you excel in it. The Wyverns are marvelous creatures, each unique, each powerful, each paying thanks to you, even if they don't worship as such.
Worship used: 60(10 upkeep, 50 race creation)
"

I, Cupiditas(I like it, it just tricky to spell and with you writing it every turn...)will subvert some nearby humans with dreams of lusts.

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

as said:
Wait, are new entries still allowed? if so, Usael, the fey of defense and contracts, appears before a small town and offers protection in exchange for kingship. He draws up a contract to this effect.

If they accept, he conjures up wards against hostile magic, and attacks any hostile entities who attempt to enter.

Well, I'd rather not waste my time. Is the creation of lesser gods such a secret that the greater gods aren't even quite sure how much  energy it costs?

I, Cupiditas(I like it, it just tricky to spell and with you writing it every turn...)will subvert some nearby humans with dreams of lusts.
...By "subvert," you just mean "convert," right? No unwilling descent to depravity?
