You could always PM me the desired effect and act, so that we might look over it together.

Alright, I'll do that.

I have to say that I don't really like how we've gone down in scale with each game though, but I guess it's easier to manage for you? I mean, in the first game, we had an unlimited space to us and were pretty much all-powerful, with mortal belief only giving small boosts in Acts, (though that probably was hellish to GM) in the second we were limited to one planet and now we start off with only one tribe and seem to need belief to survive (?).

You do not necessarily need belief to survive. And yes, we scaled down because it was necessary due to the fact that it was simply impossible to keep track with such a great playing field, but also because the smaller the scale, the more attention we can pay to our individual characters.

Spreading belief will not be very hard in this game, and even then- Godhood III started without tribes.

Still, if it does not improve the game, we can remember that for a potential next Godhood.
After all, it's a game, and we're constantly experimenting to find the right balance, enjoying it on the way. (Or it is intended as such, at the least.)

Acanthus isn't in...

The 11th player is there because Caesar miscounted.

Alcinoe is in, so it looks like Acanthus is in after all.  Dragnar didn't post, in the end.

Yes, I used the wiki for a nice manageable list of the Gods I had to put in the game.
For some reason I didn't notice Acanthus snuck in his God. Which is actually a rather amusing error on my part.
It would also be nice to add the names of the players to the list of Gods.

Well, that took about three hours.  I'll keep future posts shorter for my sanity, but the story ended up ballooning out of my control.  =/

Excellent. My sincerest compliments.
You've not only made a great example of manipulating mortals to achieve your goals, but you've also given me something extremely interesting to add to the next turn post, as well as allowing me to elaborate some more on the Godhood lore of creation.

Agh, I shouldn't have started writing this this late. Now it's full of spelling mistakes and such and ends rather abruptly because I was too tired to finish it properly. Oh well. >_>

Also, would one of the the wiki-modifers add the first race we have (Humans)? Not much to say except they are ordinary humans created by the Overgoddess.

On It, Humans Will be put in.

Also I have a query: I organized the Forums into Godhood III and IV. Should I move the associated items in Godhood IV onto the mainpage or leave it as it is?

You know, some of the bot account names would be awesome for god names;  Raolodel, Jafbar, Mankale!

I reckon we ought to put the pages for the current game on the front page and archive the old pages to Godhood III etc.
