((That's sadly limiting. I was hoping for a way to get more than four gods in at once. However, I now have a plan...))

"Fellow 'minor' gods, I think I have a solution to our problems. We need to kick out those abusive 'greater gods' and replace them with more reasonable ones. Who shall we target?"
I have a plan.
PLAN "FLAME":
Create a noxious substance that rapidly consumes living tissue, making it into an immensely strong, bright material for several minutes before it dissolves. Spread through contact. Sid effects include: extreme aggression, massive increases in strength, and spontaneous combustion.
That'll unseat the gods of peace/life/balance/cold/dark

Well, let's say you're going away from Earth on huge spaceship and suddenly shit goes wrong and you have Super Mutants. Social Experiments prepared them for this.

((Wait, I'm the God of Life too...or nature...or something like that...))

"That plan will be considered...I'd prefer something different, however. Perhaps some kind of flaming satellite? That ruins Dark and Cold. As for Ar, we would need to make things weaker, or more ignorant, or somehow stop ambition. Not likely at this point...unless you want to start by creating a race that actively dislikes ambition. I suppose we could do that."

"So the Vermin are finally plotting to usurp their betters, eh?

Guess I can't say I'm surprised. Enjoy struggling amongst yourselves as much as you struggled against us, though."

"Oh, well this just got awkward... you see I kind of like the little people I make not fighting and an aversion to ambition isn't all that good for that... Fine i'll make it but I'm not claiming them as mine!"

"Wait, why is no ambition bad for peace?

"In any case, we should prepare. Might I suggest that we create some crops or something before making a sentient race?"

((Yes. Either kick another god out [Hurt their spheres. A chaotic hate cult would hurt Yon, for example], or wait for them to drop out. I'll then choose who gets in, and they'll get a chance to mutate to fill their new role [Say, so they could gain power from their hate cult]. More esoteric spheres will be harder to hurt someone through, but will hurt more. Major godhood is lost below 0.5 Power.))
And this, this is why I wanted to split apart that mountain. But no, we wanted fungus.  :P

"I would rather see the arrogant Auphanim fall first. However, I see now, that engineering his downfall will include making the world an easy one to live in. Cause it's mortals to be unambitious. While that would be easy enough, it runs counter to many of our own goals. And so it would be easier to seal him into a great tree. A god Trap, as it were. I know the perfect first step."

Convince the other minor gods to seed another type of tree across the first and second continents, that draws in minor branches of the ley lines. One with broad leaves, that produces soft nuts with conical shells.

"This is as good an idea as any for the moment. I have no love and much suspicion for those rings..."
Aid creating the tree. Call them Leypull trees.

((The leylines are too deep for that. Also with my spheres, you'd literally have to put the world in stasis.))

Two sets of keywords: Draws in, minor branches.
Trust me, I know what I'm doing. Much fun as having you in this game is, I think the cutthroat waitlist vs player thing is fun, and you DID make your own altar already.
