IC is now up in strict talk-only mode for the next 72 hours (which I dearly hope is enough to crank out an agent builder tool and patch up stuff). Character modifications are still largely unrestricted at this point.

Statistics from the previous survey are now available: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1kv2U6d372EZiU5mRK5HAc47jyzyMbtC6h14w-V8HGn8

Most notable is Flux being brought back.
Spoiler: Summary (click to show/hide)

micelus: Piling on Hindrances to get more points does restrict the creation a lot, though
        NIce development of the habits and cultures, there. I reckon a weighted average would result in the Humans being of Tier 1

Dutrius: The Greater Ęthereal and the Amilyd look about right

Spoiler: darkwarlock3 (click to show/hide)
Spoiler: Kevak (click to show/hide)
Added

Detoxicated: Actually, one unit of Nagalians would cost 3E instead of 5.2E
        Agents are essentially PCs, created from races. I'll try to get an agent builder up, but first, I have to make the race builder able to save/load races.

AbstractTraitorHero &al.: Mortals are tracked as worshiping one primary god by default because frequent exceptions to this created lots of work

Rolepgeek: You ruined the surprise! :P

Andres &al. Also, confirming the existence of Andres' impressive blueprint which may yet have some use.

EDIT: 48 -> 72

I just remembered why these OOC threads get this long. It's usually because of Stirk isn't it?

I'm willing to go with an average if that preserves the traits of each caste.

It is. I can't help it, I've done nothing the last month.

Your current spheres are Spheres and angels. Surely I don't need to explain how that is meta.
Wait what? *checks sheet* Ah, it's a carry-over from early YG2. I'd originally chosen Spheres as my secondary sphere because the idea was that each of my gods would have their own sphere and do jobs my god wanted them to do while he chilled on the moon. That was the entire purpose of the sphere. KJP said it wasn't an option so I just took the Angels sphere, but I kinda forgot about it when I was copy+pasting the sheet over to here.
Honestly, I'm surprised it passed "inspection" considering KJP said no meta spheres in this game either. Thanks for informing me (I only want the Angels sphere), though I wish you hadn't done so by insulting me.

KJP, can you change my sheet in the OP so that I only have the Angels sphere? I didn't mean to put Spheres as my secondary sphere. Thanks.

All fanfics are heresy, each and every one, especially the shipping ones. Those are by far the worst.

It passed inspection because it was interpreted as the geometrical kind of sphere! :P

Changing now.

Am I the only one who thinks it would be greatly amusing if we just all spend the talking period greatly disoriented and don't get the whole "god" thing?

I don't speak for everyone but probably yes, you are the only one who thinks that.

EDIT: Not that it's not a funny concept, it's just that having all the gods be like that wouldn't be very funny.

So how are the Planet/s going to be priced? They are probably going to be among the first things created, after all.

Nevermind, I just read it  :-[.

The first widely agreed on system (planets and all) is free. The rest will be developed later.

"System". Does that mean solar system or whatever we want? Could we made a big bang for free, for instance?

A world system includes such things as ringworlds, hollow sphere worlds, or anything like that.

Anything with more than 7 or so usable(/playable?) worlds will likely be NO'd on account of being excessive work.

Single planet FTW! Much more interaction that way, and everything ends up linked together basically making a single planet anyway. Kinda pointless to make more then one.
