DreamerGhost: Potentially, but something very nice to the cause of magic very recently happened.

You tease  :P
KJP seems to be saying that stacking up too many magic-boosting things in a short period of time rapidly becomes less effective. Diminishing returns and all that. So wait a few ticks before enacting your Mage-Caste plan.

Landria would support such a mage-caste plan btw. Hierarchies!

That can't be it. Your continuous free tech would have drawbacks then.

The point of keeping the golems on fire isn't for the value of fire as a weapon. It's more to keep the golems functioning at a reasonable speed.
It was never a promise. It was a dirty lie, and you all knew that. You should all know by now that you can't trust a word I say.

I think his point is that there's an asymptotic capability for magical development. So it may be quite unnecessary.

Yes, the technology that I have invested quite a lot of essence in is indeed limited. For example, KJP has stated there's a limit of at most one average tech level increase per 7 ticks.

Presumably "magic advancement level" or whatever suffers from similar limitations.

Sorry about the slowness, internet here's super flaky. Won't be much longer, though, so there's that.

DreamerGhost: I'll send a free investigation over, but it's not the asymptotic thing in this case :P

Hi, I'm new to this forum but I saw this thread and the former one and I thought it looked like a lot of fun. I was wondering if it would be alright if I jumped into the game as a new god? I'd really enjoy a chance to play and I think I could be a good part of the game. If it's alright, if I join i'll create my god idea below. Fell free to say if there are any comments or concerns

Name: Kadden
Sphere: Travel and Collecting
Primary form: A scruffy haired man, wearing well worn traveler's clothes. A hobo-style bag on a stick resting over his shoulder. Holding either a harmonica or some sort of easy to carry food (e.g. apple, loaf of bread)
Symbol: A trail of footprints
Description: For a long time, Kadden has wandered the emptyness of non-existence, but now in this new world he intends to travel length of the land and discover new and interesting things for his collection. As a god wandering the earth, he feels a close connection to mortals and tends to be willing to help them whenever able.

I can't imagine KJP would mind, but he hasn't been online in a little over a week. I think he's been having internet issues for a while.

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.

Also, didn't KJP say no gods may come from outside the bubble?
Because outsiders generally means they'll argue about other Ye Gods's.

Well Detox, I suppose I'll just need to see what can be done about that won't i...*Evil Laugh*...seriously though I'm sure there's enough weird business on the mountain to keep the god of travel busy for a good long while, and if I run out, that's what creating new races to make cool cities and stuff is for right? :)

Don't worry Happy, I read that too. The whole wandering non-creation bit is just fluff to say he likes to travel and explore. Kadden spontaneously burst into existence for no real good reason just like all the other gods, so don't you worry.

Just don't get your hopes up too high about the game continuing. Its possible that he won't be able to keep the game up  :-\.

Thank you for that yet to be earned compliment! :)

Honestly I don't think Karren's really going to be a thorn in anyone's side. I think he'll mostly just be content to walk among mortals, grant wishes benevolent genie-style and create himself a nice body of worshippers. Though if someone torks him off, well there's a reason I'm known as a cruel, vindictive b*stard at my vampire game. ;)

 Regardless I think it will be a good time.

Broadcast: Updating this weekend. Apologies for the extended absence.
    Re keeping up: It's actually been comparatively easy to keep up, with a bit under 2 hours needed daily to punch out twice-daily updates. The rolling schedule from the first YG will have to wait for a few more weeks, though.

Gryffon15: Added. Do note that extraBubble stuff is rendered noncanon
