You're only Bound if you get less than 0.

Having no acts for more than one turn will result in the god becoming Bound to the physical world.
Then you might want to reword that part of the rules.  ???
I may have not been thinking when I typed that. It actually is 1 but you need to stay at 0 for longer than a turn. Due to this mistake, there will be a grace period of two turns.

...what?

EDIT: Will you be tracking Accord in our stats?

Edited that post. Yes, starting with the second round of actions.

Okay, posting here for clarification, modifying the ecosphere of the planet would only be a standard act?

No matter how significant the ecosystem/ecosphere change is?

If it's big enough you might need two acts. Post here to check.

Well, would calm most, if not all of the volcanoes and making the world generally more... habitable for conventional life need one act or two?

1 act= 1/3 of Gaia's volcanoes. Basing off my somewhat incomplete understanding on geology, you'd need to shut down at least 2/3rds of the volcanoes to get rid of the ash clouds unless you can think of a !!FUN!! way of dispersing them.

Can't say I'm a fan of this. All it does is discourage people from doing things, and the devouring rules are already more than enough disincentive.

The planet was created with a mighty act. Changing one aspect of it (volcanoes) completely doesn't seem like it need another mighty act imo, something like 1/2 volcanoes per act seems more reasonable.

In the beginning i thought that you become bound when you want to. :P

Pretty sure you can, still, just you're much stronger if you willingly invest your Acts into your bound Avatar as opposed to being cast down from the heavens.  Would we know by how much, or are we meant to find that out by trial and error?

That's a good point and I doubt there would be any objections to that so I'll agree with you and make it so.

Two acts to shut down the volcanoes? You must be mad. I'll give one act for the whole lot. :P

That's too cheap. IronyOwl spent a mighty act creating a deliberately volatile world, if you want to change it, you have to pay up, otherwise go and make your own planet.

Yeah I know you're semi-joking but still.
