hector13: Your answers have been interpreted as:
2. I can fairly easily handle more stats, and orthogonal/opposite stats with few possible interactions probably won't add too much work. I do also like Stirk's three-stat system, and it seems to reward participation more than the previous one (or at least no punish it as much)
3. added (indirect conflict), added to (conflict damping)
4. @@@: interpreted as b but nothing added
7. added (RPing bonuses) and (bonuses and penalties)
8. interpreted as b and folded under (autonomy+)
9. added to (strategy over smashy), added as (open kills)
11. interpreted as b and added as (vote on limiting modification of others' creations,1)
12. lack of originality penalty: depends on overall opinion, but given the current survey responses, probably a small (~10-20%) additive price modifier at most
13. @@@: interpreted as no response: is this OK?
14. interpreted as b, the story shouldn't abruptly end after the goal is finished
15. interpreted as b-c (both magic and tech and lax natural law16. added as (intrigue); added to (civilization) and (creating conflict)
17. added as (Council)
18. added as (surprises+)?
19. added to (not much effect), (some reward)
20. added to (giantgrid); added (precise)
Dutrius: Your answers have been interpreted as:
16-18. As of this instant people have liked mostly (creation) and (conflict) and disliked various things including (lack of ending), (Council), (stagnation). It may be a bit easier after the list is posted.

Magic systems: I don't mind the names being changed around at all IC or OOC (provided it's not for misleading people on OOC). To be fair, the fact that it got progressively harder and harder to make up names to fill up the cube should have been a big warning signal that the system would be unwieldy and difficult to implement. At this point, I think there are the following main options:
- Use the SRD, which while not perfect, is widely known, and more importantly, tested (abjuration, conjuration, divination, &c. for arcane magic and sphere-based clerical spells for divine magic)
- Have players bounce around ideas for systems and put it to a vote
- Stick with the oversized system, probably incorporating the naming changes (Note: player-created magic can very well replace or add to entire paths in it during gameplay, but it looks less expandable without the big picture)
- Design a tiny, minimalistic system organized solely by how much the effects of magic deviate from physics ior plot
