I never got the chance to ask, last game where the letters before and after each tick random gibberish or codded messages? We never figured it out :0.

Andres, Rolepgeek, and micelus: It looks like a to-be-suspended action without an extension of the trait or a modification of the design

Stirk: For a sufficiently long one-time pad, should there really be a difference? :P Most of it was just noise, but some of it was something else

Trait Amendments: Scaling Traits/Traits with multiple possible ranks cannot be scaled above +6 without the Legendary Trait. With the Legendary Trait, they may be scaled up to +10 if desired.

This proposal got more opposals than just one. Zurion and Munroe are also opposing it. Furthermore, it also breaks rule 0a of the Council: All proposals pertaining to rules start with the number 1.

On the topic of the poll, why did you make it? All it does is disadvantage gods who decided to make worshipping races - those who have already abandoned their hope of gaining influence Essence in order to gain the less lucrative but more stable worship Essence. This poll tips the balance squarely in favour of the ones who sat on their asses waiting for influence to kick in at the expense of those who made it possible for them to gain influence Essence in the first place.

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

Lots of proposals do that.

Look, we need to raise a psychopath who will murder God, we have no time to be spending on cooking.

the way your fingertips plant meaningless soliloquies makes me think you are the true evil among us.

What are you talking about? Influence will ALWAYS be much less than worship under the current system, by the way it works. The pole is to prevent a potential issue several have brought up, in that you can currently double your investment in four turns. To put it this way:
Tick One,God One creates 16E worth of worshipers on tick 1 (4E/tick)
Tick 4, God One is back to 20E. God One again creates 16E worth of worshipers (8E/tick)
Tick 6, God One is back to 20E. God One again creates 16E worth of worshipers (12E/tick)
Tick 8, God One is back to 20E. God One again creates 16E worth of worshipers (16E/tick)
Tick 9, God One is back to 20E. God One again creates 16E worth of worshipers (20E/tick)

And just like that, a god is invincible in a little more than a week. The potential for abuse is massive without a system in place.

Andres: Opposition counted

    Poll: Because, as mentioned, under the current system, worship income provides far too much on the high end (allowing trivial doubling of income in a little over a week) and too little on the low end (mostly for those with traitful creations). Now that I've thought about it some more, the current scaling really has to go.

KJP: That part you've marked as the creation of non-trivial demons, I was just defining the demons I had made before.  After the first post about demons, I thought about it and decided to add more, but thought that if I just edited the first post the edit may be missed.

Thanks!

Some questions:
Does rune magic allow my tower builders to enchant their towers? I'm hoping yes.
Are there god corpses? Inquiring minds want to know!
