I noticed. Good job on clarifying!

(At the very least, that should cut down on the confusing (I/OO)C arguments.)

Also, since the narrative about those particular humans seems to be degenerating into a game of Telephone, here are a few clarifications in rough chronological order:

• The grandfather died of an unspecified alcohol-related accident in the far past and has recycled back to Keshan as a poor, young resident of some random town. This should not have been relevant but I worded the first post for these events poorly. I doubt he will be much involved
• The father, until recently a minor nobleman, died during a Gruen skirmish and has been reborn on Slytha
• The mother, until recently a minor noblewoman, died while giving birth to a son and has been reborn on Slytha as well
• The daughter has been given custody over her infant brother. She is feeling wrathful
• The son seems to be ill and thanks to fate (choo choo!) cannot be healed even by a god of Humans and a goddess of Life

Wait if the father died in a Gruen skirmish, then who did my Inquisitors kill? They killed someone when they tried to retrieve the Piece.

The elder brother (oops!). He intended to resurrect at least one parent, but was a bit too desperate for the Inquisitors.

$$$Response
Altering emotions: Depends on plot-relevance (random human: 0; making a regional governor go insane with happiness or something: 2+)
Zephemural+Telialas yourself: High 10-11

[Andres]

Well can I possibly revive him? Is HE in the Human Plane?

[Kilojoule Proton]

Nope.

(A god of fate or plot played by a clever player could actually get overpowered (and not in the sense in which everyone overpowers said player).)

"I wish my little brother would get better, but not even the priests can heal him and my inheritance is running out." (plot-block)

Bereaved girl: "You stupid gods only ever make things worse! He was already sick before and now he's only getting worse! I hate you all! Get ooout! Get out!"

She was praying either to me - a god - or the council - a bunch of gods. Why would she then get angry at the gods when one of them directly appears in front of her to try and help?

EDIT:

Army purchases may be available starting Tick 18.

It's Tick 18 and I don't know what 'army purchases' are. Did I miss something?

Fun fact of the day: the correct pronoun to refer to Cim is 'it'. Pure order knows no gender.

[Kilojoule Proton]

Army purchases: Buying your war stuff and units. I think it's now sufficiently balanced, but I'll have to check each price again.

Fun Fact of the Light: The Light does not care about gender, and may be referred to as it he she they we I you and prmlsk.
Everything, in the End, is Light

So are we able to do that yet? I don't know how to do that.

That would be because I overcomplicated the subplot by not just revealing the conclusion a sentence later, and now I end up having to flesh out nigh-implausible details (choo choo!) that didn't really exist until they were actually observed. (Note that it's not actually my own subplot completely)

I'll get around to that, but it seems to be a problem with the cookies being registered to the /private subdirectory and having the link appear in the navbar, which is under / . Once that's all done, I'll make a little form for sending purchase and movement orders.

Since I also realized that editing maps in GIMP for more than an hour everyday will not be terribly efficient, I think I will go ahead and implement the HTML5 canvas stuff. The code may resemble a thin, extruded pasta, but then, I'll only need a few minutes each day to post updates. Fortunately, this week-end marks the end of the non-programming-related midterms. The main question is one of whether anyone still wants to go to war after possible interest decline over a week.

There is also the question of whether people opposing a proposal should have creative control of the results. Myself, I think only supporters, abstainers, and no-voters should actually be allowed, but the current system allows anyone to have creative control regardless of voting. This may result in spite creations if, for example, an opposer decided to fill up most of a proposal creation quota with something no one else wants.

[gman8181]

After all the work you put in how could we not try it out?

I really do though. It sounds fun.

[Andres]

Well technically I don't want to go to war but seeing as how it's kind of necessary I'm still up for it.

[Kilojoule Proton]

Just remember that I really don't mind if any of you want to stop the war. It won't be a waste of effort or anything like that, and the system will probably continue development regardless of whether anyone actually ends up using it or not because some warring is probably inevitable.

[Andres]

If I might suggest something about the titling scheme is to make the alliteration rarer. It's not really special when it's like that for EVERY update and sometimes it feels like you're forcing yourself to use words that don't accurately describe the situation JUST for the sake of alliteration. Your choice of course. It's just a suggestion. Possibly also an opinion.
