Old Planet - AGE OF GODS
« on: March 08, 2018, 02:44:49 am »

This game will feature extinction cycles where a new thread is created, and only the few most prominent things of each category survive.

There will only be a few phases in each thread, the early ones focusing on active influence and later more on passive methods.

There will be points system and if you win, you choose the method of extinction.


PHASES

Primal Act
What ever you choose to do will set the tone for your powers this cycle. Sentient beings (potential followers) will not forget this, for a long time.

Residual Act
The more it mirrors your last or a recent primal act in domain, the better, though still much weaker.

Champion Act
Command your titan. (Create one if you don't have one.)

Follower Act
Command your believers. (Sentient beings)

Final Act
If you win, choose the extinction method.


POINTS

Legacy Points
The number of people that remember your actions. (first hand or passed down doesn't matter) An extra point for each cycle back.

Soul Points
The number of people you caused to die or be born, added together.

God Points
All gods choose 1 other god to give their god point to secretly by PM to me. Your final score is multiplied by a (small) %.


Think of this cycle as a complete, albeit mini- god game.



Saturation #s
0.01 to 0.49 trace amounts
0.50 to 0.99 common
1.00 total saturation
1.01+ saturation density

Glass is, as usual, correct.
Yep, as ever, I bestow upon Glass the expected +1
I'm gonna say we go with whatever Glass's idea is.

I figure at some point, you're just gonna run outta fucks to give and just off yourself whenever you get hurt at all. It's not like there's any downsides to it. Hangover? Suicide will fix that. Stubbed your toe? Suicide. Headache? Suicide. Papercut? Suicide.

PRIMAL ACT

I encourage the growth of plants, namely grass and trees.

I emit orange light.

I create grass, trees with fruit, grazing animals, and curious elves.

I manifest as an infinite snake, and disperse plants and animals.


Choose a hemisphere. Post it in the thread.

East
West

PM Your Residual Act now.

So I got nothing? Guess I lose automatically, having had  my idea taken by yellow and green. I'm out, then.

You're able to do more stuff. It doesn't even have to be particularly well-connected to your original Act. Make the ocean, or a mountain range, or something. The world's still pretty empty.

Also: of course we all started by making life. The world was empty. What else were we going to do?

EDIT: Roseheart, could you explain what the stuff in the World spoiler means, particularly the decimal points?

Yeah, but nothing for the action that has the most impact on how the game will play out? That's just not right!

I would of been fine if I got less than everyone else, and heck I would even expect that me and green would have gotten less than everyone because we both picked a set that was overlapped by three of four players, but NOTHING AT ALL!? How is that even remotely fair?

Your situation is not as bad as it seems. I won't give any hints as to why. Just do what you can.
