Yeah, IcyTea, from Teburshe's perspective, you're just being a dick.

Also sorta from mine.
And mine, I admit. I've heard some compare and contrast god games with politics simulations. Just like in politics, ruthless dickery can be a necessity to get things done your way. I'm sorry for performing such a dick move, but I hope you understand it's just a game, and being a Magnificent Bastard is part of it. I wouldn't do things like this in real life, and I hope you can forgive me.

And I just now realized that realistically my god has no goals other than survival. Oops.
Don't worry. My current to-do list is basically:
  • Survive.
  • Get lots of worship.
  • Get rid of Lauxal, my nemesis.
  • Mess around.

Nilva's list is:

Survive.
Do weird shit.

Weird shit includes followers. If you think about it, it would be weird to have people worshiping your existance.

I'd expect it from Cim, but not from a god of Dreams.

I just don't want to have to write a Voidsdamned contract in order to prevent this shit every time I do something.

I've already spent 90% of my Essence and 80% of my power getting this shit ready for you lot. Bloody hell.

Note the double meaning of the sphere of Dreams. Aurosseu has plenty of vision, as well as ambition. He's not afraid of a bit of Realpolitik. Still, only expect it on particularly important matters. Keeping up a ruthless demeanour is taxing on me, the player.

Spheric profile is bad. Judging someone's personality based on their sphere(s) is a very inaccurate way of doing so.

Iliseth's list:
Get followers
Create personal dimension+afterlife for followers
Isolate her godly soul
Weaponise her godly soul (by that I mean get soul-based magic)
Weaponise the souls of her followers (same as above)
Give everything - EVERYTHING - a soul
Become God-Empress of the Universe I'll save this for my next god. :P

Do souls have the same lethality/blast radius they had in Ye Gods? (3.736 metres killing radius/minimum blast radius)

KJP was pretty clear that you pulled that number out of your but  ::).
Objection! KJP never said I pulled the number out of my ass, he was just expressing frustration over the fact that we were still arguing about a one-time case where a soul exploded. Proof.

EDIT: Sorry for double-post. Forgot to remove the words here and edit it into my previous one.

Yes, an abundance of space was one of the main reason why I pushed for a torus world. With a smaller spherical world, we would run into the problem of territorial conflict, as the amount of desirable space would be extremely limited. And do not worry about my plans, I have no interest in conflict. All I care for is progress, and war is nothing but a distraction from it.
Hold on, if the reason why a torus world costs the same as a spherical one is because it has functionally the same usable space, why is Lithus saying that the point of the torus is to have increased space?

I do believe it's infinity spots unless Stirk says otherwise.

Now I'm confused.
A torus world costs as much Essence as a spherical world despite being large enough to go all the way around the sun. This is because despite its length, its narrowness makes it so it has the same usable space as a normal spherical world.

What have I signed up for.

I have completely and hopelessly fallen behind in both threads, so if anyone has a summary of anything important I should know that would be swell. Currently still slogging through the "So we're making a torus right/No toruses damn it" phases of the IC thread. The early ones, if that just kind of... keeps going.
