I would certainly agree with a free action limit and changing the census. Since it could be wrong by as much as 50% it was absolutely useless, even if you went through several turns worth to get an actual number. Any changes would take several turns to find out, by which time mortals would get worried that their god missed half of them dying for a few decades.

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.

If things are continuing normally again I'm just going to wait for my actions to be resolved...

"Now, before I do anything I have to say that whom ever is searching our minds it is very rude and I request you stop it at once."
Mumuski responds to prayers, starting with the zwerg "Oh dear this issue again, look, please try to understand that music in all forms is grand even if you don't particularly enjoy it as you can simply just not listen to that particular music, everyone has there own opinions after all so its fine to dislike some music so long as you don't try to stop it." Then moving onto the dream-feeder "Ah, I see. I approve of your idea and wish you luck and give you my blessing." Bless the dream-feeder and its friends to be more skilled and inspiring. Lastly she moves onto...the music boat thing. "Giant lady? Could you be referring to me or am I merely misunderstanding." And appears in front of the music boat, curious to what it might play.

various personified animal races with stereotypes (cunning fox, lazy lion, cunning weasel etc.)
Why, that sounds fabulous! (Geddit?)

I might join the reboot, if that ends up winning.

Something to that tune sounds good for actions KJP.

Wstfgl's worshipper base is terrifying.

Apparently I have the second most worshippers.

Landria for god-king 2016?

Not really. All he did the entire game is make worshipers. They aren't even good worshipers, and they have done nothing the entire game. Killing/stealing them in mass would be simple.

Yes, but it's terrifying in the sleeping giant sort of way in that if he actually does decide to do something with them he can drown everyone else out through sheer numbers.

Combined with them being incorporeal (iirc) and natural psymentalists and it reaches nightmarish proportions.

Again, not really. Its hard to make numbers a huge advantage in this game. If you only fight a small amount at once, its basically a high level character smashing through the low level ones (Ex Four could stomp a town of the dream follower's without really trying). If you somehow get enough of them in one place for them to be a threat on their own, then they are very vulnerable to Area of Effect type attacks and nuking. Psymental really isn't that powerful a school, and its not like incorporeal would save them from any of the other races if a real war broke out. Besides, they are just a basic race who can eat dreams and have Psi as a free school, if I remember correctly. They are really weak.

Hm... if they're incorporeal, then it'd be an issue to attack them. Well, the Dagomoths would just hit them where it hurts, their minds. So they'd just do eldritch corruption on them.
Because making purely mental creatures makes them vulnerable to eldritch. Or so I think, at least.

If they're not. I don't think having cannons will help much when Dagomoths attack them with Donnerpanzers and Sturmkannons.
In hindsight, the Dagomoths turns out to be quite powerful. When cooperating with the Kattens.
If all of Katzerie's races were on the same layer, they could be really powerful. But I like my separated races.

piratejoe: Resolving soon/now/previously

Changes:
    Terrifying worshipper bases: But if I pick(ed) a shallower function, it'll likely be horizontally asymptotic!
    Census accuracy: Any suggestions in favor of removing it entirely? I tend to think it's better that it exists, but if most would prefer removing it, it works for me too

I'd quite like it to be present in case I decide to use it as a counter of who to destroy so I know what races there are.

For me "For Realz" potential restart God:

Name: Muda
Sphere: Space-time
Primary form: A black hole, in a vaguely humanoid shape.
Rest:TBD

My first race would be "Seconds", essentially spirits that live in the bodies of corpses of the other races, keeping their physical and mental abilities with some other details I haven't worked out yet. Just for the pun :P.

Well, might as well make my sheet for the new god.

Name: Panzer
Sphere: Armor
Primary form: A single piece of armor, like a belt, gauntlet, chest plate, etc. Panzer can then use other armor, to form a humanoid body. The primary piece can shape shift, the rest cannot.
Symbol: A chest plate. Can also include pauldrons, helmet, and even a full set of armor.
Description: Panzer is the strongest, hardest, softest, heaviest, lightest, and most flexible piece of armor that exists. Panzer is the perfect armor.

I guess I'll make it official

Name: Cliche
Sphere: Stereotypes
Primary form: Exactly what you'd expect.
Symbol: A printing press, because I might as well be cheeky and include a literal stereotype too!
