Am I correct in assuming people do not want to advance the age because there are still a lot of province slots to fill up? If so, will the people voting not to advance the age actually fill up those province slots? Or?

[Knightwing64]

Pretty much

Yes and yes, when I have a moment to decide them

Just a minor note that provinces will likely remain creatable in the next age(s), so if you'd rather use the free provinces to give mortals a head start, waiting until the Age of Myth is fine. I don't know exactly what the Age of Magic will entail if that passes, but it'll probably be something like a blend of the Geological Age and the Age of Myth where mortals are possible but expensive to the point of needing collaboration (and of course get cheaper in the Age of Myth proper), terraforming is still possible to allow for the land-oriented sort of magic, rites and rituals are particularly potent (possibly more than expected?), and skyforming is possible in a limited sense to accommodate those wanting to attach extra significance to various sky features. This will all have to be balanced out somehow at some point so there isn't overwhelming support for staying in the same age forever or skipping right away before anything gets done, of course.

I was mainly waiting because I feel like it may be better if we’re not making mortals until the Eye is asleep again, if it does so reasonably soon.

[Demonic Spoon]

I see no particular reason why the Eye would care about mortals or do anything to them? While much about it is vague, it seems simply an ornery landowner who tolerates our presence because it's too much of a bother to throw us all out and we provide amusement. Its behaviour as written seems to be motivated in not having us bother him and having us play nice, presumably because gods not playing nice causes a mess and is generally a bad idea because it brings down property values like crazy.

If anything, it's probably safer to create mortals with the Eye awake and watching since that makes it more dangerous for other divines to overtly smite them for having the wrong hair colour or whatever.

P.S. Don't give your mortal the wrong hair colour, OR ELSE. 

[Kilojoule Proton]

Let it be known that the only permitted hair/horn color is cyan!

[Egan_BW]

What about chitin color though?

[Stirk]

Chitin is just hair for people with outside skeletons.

[Kilojoule Proton]

Chitin, like grass, must be kept green and _trimmed per the H👁️A agreement.

Hmm, was the IC thread supposed to be locked or was that an accident?

Action lock in 48 hours
Also a temporary thread lock to avoid ambiguity

[micelus]

KJP did a naughty and only announced the lock on discord. Sad!

[Knightwing64]

What did they do?

[Demonic Spoon]

Does this all seem to be fine KJP?

EDIT: Ack! I just realized I had somehow missed that the discount for bulk province creation only applies if they're bordering each other. Guess I'll have to pick one to cut out barring investment far beyond my expectations of no investment. Or I could say they're part of a contiguous series which makes the action totally valid.

EDIT2:

Shinka politely but firmly burns any and all shrines off its explicitly uncivilized sacred mountain. Again.

I wouldn't really say the flesh shrine is really much of a shrine, inasmuch as a bunch of fleshtubes is a shrine. Similar to how the Great House of Cancer isn't really so much a house as a radioactive skinpile.

I guess I could change the name to "Bunch of Fleshtubes"
