Yes, but you're the Overgod now. You used up your acts as an Elder God, but didn't get any back because the Overgod was dead. Now that you're the Overgod you need to go to sleep to get back your acts (and because it's required).
It's not required, only Overgods go to sleep for acts.
By the same logic, he should go to sleep for a turn for every act he's ever done.

There's no mention of Acts being gained only while you're asleep. I have to use a major act in order to go to sleep.

Go to sleep for doing acts. Sorry about the ambiguity.

You have to be asleep to regain your acts, because drawing power from the Void is exhausting putting you to sleep. And you don't use a major act to go to sleep, you go to sleep when you end your turn and have used an act during that turn.

I'm pretty sure that's not how it works...but it's really a bit moot, because they have the same effects.
Except that you regain acts while awake. Otherwise, you'd be asleep only long enough to regain your acts, and you wouldn't automatically fall asleep when you used one act out of a dozen.

You don't regain acts while awake! Drawing power from the Void tires out the Overgod, no matter if they are awake or asleep. That is why they are only awake 1 turn out of every 3 or so.

You sleep one turn for every act used right? Or maybe it was more than that...

Regarding the whole Overgod thing I mean.

While that is the IC explanation, the game mechanics indicate that acts are gained wherever awake or asleep. It's the using that forces the sleeping, not the reverse.

Very wise.
Remember, those of you watching at home, there is NEVER an ulterior motive for anything a god does.

Your ride's over, Neyravah. Time to die.
Remember the thing Avarian said about not allowing the Winter Palace or The North to become a battlefield? That's still going to hold true now.

'I offer the Winter Palace to whoever will use it'. We are using it, are we not?

Oh, well. Looks like I'll need to burn it off the map, then.

EDIT: Udil is still hidden from your sight, FYI, though I understand if you can sense something Going Down at the Palace anyway.

Okay...Sabt Golgo uses a Mighty Act to grant Udil superhuman power.  Thats...a Minor Act would have sufficed to let him live an exceptional long life and heal his leg. An Act would have given him eternal life...A Migty Act...congrats Udil just became at least a Demigod...if he doesn't explode from Overpowering...it's like building a Nuclear Power Plant to produce energy for a lightbulb...

EDIT: Since Udil is attacking Neyravah, he is entering an exchange and thus becomes visible for her. Concerning Avarians Rules:  Avarian cannot do much about it, he cannot even comprehend who killed her, all part of the Mighty Act. And since he has no Divine Security Cams installed he will not even notice that somebody violated his rules...apart from NEyravah possibly dying a sudden death.

Well, yeah. I only have Mighty Acts. I wouldn't use lesser Acts even if I could. I'm an Elder God and proud of it, damnit.

Also, I don't mind if he does explode. That would be awesome.

The Winter Palace is in The North, so technically if the Winter Palace turns into a battlefield, then The North just turned into a battlefield. Also, move your super weapon away. I don't have my Eternal Neutrality Barrier up.

Can I sense power levels going up? Or is that included with Divine Security Cameras?

While technically not nuclear power plants, the Sovjet union did use thermoionic nuclear generators to provide power for lighthouses in the artic circle.
