Hardly too easily. I was going to force a scum win if my demands weren't met. The town had no choice but to lynch me D2, else they'd be signing off on their own loss :P

"We could alter my Proposal to only represent 50 per Population unit, thereby halving the time."

"How are Global Conflicts to be fought and Civilizations to be forged if there are so few Mortals? The Worlds would be uninteresting. You of all Divines should know this, Munroe."

"A bit of Paranoia never hurt anyone Saukko. My suggestion is not entirely cosmetic, if only a few thousand Mortals exist a sizable natural disaster could render them all extinct at little to no Essence cost, and without a large Mortal Population, our Afterlife Dimensions would be rather lonely."

"As...y0u...point3d...out...yourself..."

"Ah yes, but the added difficulty increases the scale of conflict. With only a few thousand Mortals, a handful of rudimentary explosives would end all conflict quickly. With millions of Mortals, the amount of Explosives and conflict required to exterminate a Species increases exponentially, and a God such as yourself would benefit tremendously from such carnage."

"Not if your proposal suggested that we consider that for all divine intents and purposes the mortals are 1/100th of their number. Which it does."

"I'm not sure why I would be keeping secrets at this early stage, Urnoth, but your proposal is entirely cosmetic. It will change nothing and is thus pointless."

Proposal: Creating 1000 of a non-mundane creature costs 2E base, with one trait considered as part of the base cost (e.g. unusual size), being as said traits are why the creature is considered non-mundane in the first place.

Amendment: 1,000 non-mundane creatures have a base cost of 1E. The creatures are non-mundane because they can have traits added.

"If you feel you are entitled to an explanation, Urnoth, I feel we are entitled to hold our counsel."

Saukko

Oppose Urnoth's proposal

"We could introduce another reducing factor based on the total number of sentient beings in the universe, or perhaps just the number of worshippers one has themselves. This way one still wants to create worshippers, but diminishing returns are introduced."

"I would much rather a simpler system be put into effect, perhaps by reducing the Nanking ((fucking what, phone?)) amount of Essence gained per follower than to rely on the total number of worshippers in existence, rewarding boring, generic creations."

"Maybe each race can have a piety amount based on how much was spent to create them and that can be factored into the equation somehow?"

"How does this simplify the process?"

"It is a simple enough system but you have a point: we regain invested essence much too quickly. What do you propose to fix this?"

13152
"What's wrong with the one we have?"

13153
((It would be the cost over 1. So the 3 trait would cost 2, the 1.5 would be 1.25, etc))

"So what if some spheres are more suited to creation of sentients than others? Surely that just means that your sphere has advantages in other areas."

"The ones who also gain from creature creation gain from this too. I don't mind differences in spheres resulting in one god being better at certain things, but races are an important aspect of maintaining influence and worship on the planets. No-one should benefit from getting cheaper creatures. Cheaper actions I would accept, but not bonuses for race creation."

tntey: And yet, would you believe it was the normal state of things for a month or two in 0ld YG, even with all the price checks and haggling and secret actions iceberging public actions? (!)

More than two months. I think I joined 2 months in, and you still managed to get daily updates in for a good month at least :o
