I actually intended to level Astarte up a couple times and get her to create a race, but the turn's end caught me before I could finish that post

@Frettzo

Turn passing doesn't change anything; by all means feel free to just finish it and post it whenever.

Telling your new fascist dictator how to live his life is ill advised!

@LokiLeo789, no Bronze Age or wheels until @Muttonhawk, @Hygswitch and myself say so. They created demigods specifically for that purpose. You can wait. Be patient.

Re: Might. For me personally, I've been saving Might because I wanted to turn my Workshop into a really awesome Holy Site Workshop, and for that I needed to save Might. Then any spare Might I'll need to spend on advancing civilisation, plus making cool new stuff in my cool new workshop, and maybe grabbing a portfolio or two. This will leave me with next to nothing, like the others. I'm sure most of us who have been stockpiling Might have plans for it which we just need a bit more time to use.

As such, I'm not sure how justifiable bail-outs are.

I think if stockpiling Might becomes a problem we can have a Might cap, as Vec suggested, with excess Might flowing into the environment. This would encourage more spending. Perhaps scale the cap with level, because higher levels generate and thus have more Might, and IC'ly a higher level god is more capable of handling more Might. Maybe somewhere between 5 and 10 Might per level? If we're leaning towards 5, then add a constant of maybe 10 Might to the cap as well.

Beyond that, it comes down to common decency and restraint as players, which is probably common in god RP's. Some of us could spend a bucketload of Might on wrecking stuff, but then A) simply overpowering our foes with Might isn't any fun RP-wise, and B) that then leaves us with only a small amount of Might to do other, more interesting things.

For instance, we're writing the fight against Violence now, and while between the three of us we have more than enough Might to simply vapourise Violence, that would remove an epic fight scene, prevent the other players from joining the fight as they had wished, go against Rtron's wishes, and leave us with not enough Might to do the other things we want to do.

@Rtron get your ass in the collab! NOW!

get ready for butt raping time starring Violence and Co

[Muttonhawk]

I'm just going to put it out there that I can't always come up with decent excuses to spend all of my might for the sake of it. A cap is fine, but penalties for not posting are just as much punishments for not adding to the world as not having the time or inspiration to do so.

This isn't Garry's Mod, it's an RP. This is a collaborative story and a cooperative effort. Right now it feel like people are talking as if it's a competition.

[WrongEndoftheRainbow]

@BBeast Could I drag you into the collab so that Lazarus can babble a stream of ideas about technology at you? Nothing set in stone, but the ideas would be there for you to act on.

[Vec]

@Muttonhawk ... I don't think that we talked about punishing not posting ...

[BBeast]

@Vec, one person did.

@WrongEndoftheRainbow, I'm not sure what technology you can tell him that Teknall doesn't already know (if you haven't been following, Teknall has been building some space sci-fi level stuff. And it's only going to get more so in this Turn), but sure, why not?

Yo @Double Capybara

@Muttonhawk

I'm sorry if anything you've read so far has made you feel you're being picked on or something. I would be the first to come out and say that you, along with many other players who have a significant bit of Might, are just as active as those who have less Might and have contributed just as much, if not more.

This is definitely not a competition (though I don't mind competitive elements).
