We're not using that trait list. Indeed, that trait list is (part of the reason) why this is YG3, and not still YG2.

"We need a more effective way of creating our creations, and I am starting to think that we take the personalities and abilities of those whimsy mortals as too important. I am not here to create a paradise, my sole purpose is an entirely different. If creating mortals means I will get more power, obviously I will go for that route, so I will ridiculously abuse that system until everything becomes crowded and complicated.

Maybe we need freedom in our creations. So we can set an unique play in motion. I also feel we should force mortals to fight wars for us, instead they should play with what we throw at them.

Essence should be gained by devotion to one's own sphere, and only be based on the god himself, not his followers. Meditation, Discipline, Devotion are the things that should keep agod running..."

Whenever I want to see that, I just take a look around in my debate class, at several of my fellow classmates.

Well, that's youths/teenagers acting like angry children, but eh, close enough.
Children acting like angry children seems not too out of place, especially in mass debating

Middle-aged footie fans with money on the line and beer on the mind = true entertainment

I was referring to the players :))

Propose: Collaboration - Cost: Gods collaborating on a project may split the costs evenly. Sphere discounts will apply to the whole project (though we have no rule for sphere discounts yet.)

Propose: Collaboration - Worship: A race may worship multiple gods. The essence gained from this for each god is multiplied by .8 for each additional god worshiped. Gods may get around this by forming a pantheon, and being considered as a single entity for the purposes of worship.

Oppose

"There is nothing to like about this."

Propose: Collaboration - Pantheon: Gods may form smaller councils of their own, bound by their own laws, as long as said laws do not conflict with those of the main council (e.g. a law stating a planet costs 1E to create.) The individual characteristics of each pantheon may be decided by the members.[/b]

Leicester won the league, and I got to see grown men acting like angry children as a result.

If you are acting as scummily as you say, particularly relative to ATH, how come nobody is voting for you, and 4 people are voting for ATH?
Why do you ask questions like this?  This is filler at best.  And Webadict didnt even bother responding.

  This isnt the first example of this type of play either.  These kinds of questions are how giant wall-posts are born.  They dont perform any functions except to reduce the amount of good content.

Explanation

I dont see the real reason for the ATH to have happened, tbh.  But hindsight/outside observer/didnt read D1.
  The ATH wagon kind of snowballs.  Stepping outside of the game for a moment, you guys kept finding things about them to pick on and call scummy.

And I've explained how it wasn't a bandwagon multiple times I had my own reasons for voting them and I've said them multiple times
EP/Hector really drove it home, and I hope you guys gave them a stern look and a good chastize for that.  Part of using emotions/reaction tests/gambles is that you have to know how to interpret them.  And you should as a matter of course give them time to sink in and for you to refresh your palate.

I note a distinct lack of quotes of either myself or EP "driving it home".

This being a BM game, I set ATH a basic task (pressure two players) that any player should be able to handle, and he had 9 days to do it. He said he couldn't find anything, which meant best-case he was useless town, worst-case he was scum hoping to coast along. This tied with his mad gambit made me think he was scum.

What's your reason for not doing what I asked you to do?
Ive been over this time and time again here.  But this is awful.  I see it as setting a 'neutral' agenda and then pursuing it.  The issue with it is that you cant be neutral in mafia.  Its anti-town to.  Know why?  because scum can use it.  You, as a townie, should not be doing things that scum can mimic.  Furthermore, it falls on the players around you to punish you for it.

Accepted, but I can't question everyone. D2 was a busy time for me (a bit overburdened with games at the time) and I didn't want to throw the game away by having everyone lurk - it's a bit of a bittersweet victory for scum, town feel bad, and nobody learns anything because nobody does anything - so I chose ATH, who had the most to lose with the inactivty to make them do something, but they couldn't manage it.

Price Check$$$

Creating a large university (size and look of national cathedral in DC)

Why not just have your followers build something like that? I mean, its just a building...

No followers yet : [

Then create the followers and have them build it, or present a proposal of what you think is a fair cost for it IC.

Evidently pisskop's scumread on me doesn't translate into actual pressure to refine that read like I was hoping. Ah well. No votes on any of the players who have "impossible claims", either?
