Actually, Aspects of the Divine is looking like it is the best Gridhood. Its maintained daily updates since it starts, which is amazing. Also some other features I guess.

Speaking of which, I wish I could change my poll vote, as apparently I can keep up with daily updates.

I can't.

So, Supernerd, when will you end up making a proper Gridland Survival game? When this game ends?

0cra_tr0per is in no position to ask me to run Gridland Survival again. If you want a sequel so much why don't you just make it yourself? Actually... Tell you what. If 0cra_tr0per can handle running a decent quality Gridland Survival game for 33 turns (How long my game lasted), I'll make a proper sequel to it. (Note that if this somehow actually happens, this will reduce Gridhood's update speed.)

... You may need to point this post out to me when that day comes because I might forget about it. Also, I reserve the right to stop updating the aforementioned proper sequel if you stop updating your game.

Godly behaviors of particular note
Gilbert decides to remake the Cliff at F1 so that it looks better next to F2. I decided to make this only cost 1FP because I clearly fulfilled his request in the laziest yet still technically correct way possible! It sure does mesh well... With tile F2.

Tribal Worship Dance: Your civilization may perform a Tribal Worship Dance. This action will only work if every single member of your tribe participates, and provides FP to a specified god.
Woodcutting: It is now possible to forage for Wood on tiles! You must specify that you are foraging for "Wood" or else it will be assumed you meant to forage for food.
Wooden Housebuilding: At the cost of 20 wood and X labor, wooden housing may be built on a tile to provide +10 Housing. Labor cost is 20 in a forested tile, 30 in a flatland tile and 50 on a mountain tile. Special tiles may require a different amount of labor.
Woodcutting Tools: Most tool techs may now be used to create a "Woodcutting Tool" instead of a standard tool. Woodcutting tools have a better result in wood gathering actions, but are useless for all other actions. You must specify the tool by its name or it will not be used.
Diplomacy: It is now possible to exchange things with other civilizations. Note that bad things may happen when you do.
Wood handled tools: When creating many kinds of tools, one material may be substituted for wood! Note that certain techs or certain parts of tools cannot be replaced this way, and this only works once per tool.

Mountain Construction: At the cost of 10 Stone and 15 labor a Stone Wall may be built on a mountain tile. A Stone Wall will grant a combat advantage when defending on the tile.
Farming Tools: Most tool techs may now be used to create a "Farming Tool" instead of a standard tool. Farming tools have a better result in farming actions, but are useless for all other actions. You must specify the tool by its name or it will not be used. WARNING: Farming tools are not helpful for foraging actions.
Stone Knapping: 1 Sharpened Stone may be created at the cost of 1* stone and 1 labor. You need at least 2 stone to do this but one only has a chance to be used up.

Swamp vine basket weaving: A basket may be created at the cost of 2 labor on a swamp tile (Co-ordinate specification required). Foraging with a basket will allow a unit to forage at a tile that is 2 tiles away from an owned tile. Trying to cross difficult terrain such as mountains or ocean will prevent an action from working and crossing dangerous tiles still causes danger. The word "Basket" must be included for this to take effect, and you must specify the tile that the unit travels through to get to its final destination.
Building Material: It is now possible to forage for Wood or Stone on tiles! You must specify that you are foraging for "Wood" or "Stone" or else it will be assumed you meant to forage for food.

Hunting: You may now attempt to "hunt" on any tile. If successful, a hunt will trigger a combat encounter that provides food and possibly other resources. Your people can die on a hunt.
Farming Tools: Most tool techs may now be used to create a "Farming Tool" instead of a standard tool. Farming tools have a better result in farming actions, but are useless for all other actions. You must specify the tool by its name or it will not be used. WARNING: Farming tools are not helpful for foraging actions.

Gilbert accepts the GM's bet, and makes F1 smooth with E1 in addition to it being smooth with F2, all while being too lazy to add cyan color tags to his name in this action.

Gilbert accepts the GM's bet

Wait really? Oh this should be a thing. I'll join once you set up the thread. I'm confident that this time you'll do better than your last attempt.

Speaking of bets, my bet is that you'll go for... Hm... Lets say... I think you'll last five turns before you give up. Remember: even if you pull it off you still need to keep your game alive to reap the benefits of this bet! Seriously though, I sort of hope you can do it. Truth be told I really did want to play Gridland Survival.
