Xar, any chance for future turns you can give us an update on how far along you are every couple/few days? I don't mind the anticipation so much if I have an inkling of how close you are. Even knowing you have 15 deities to go is a good thing, because I won't get up every morning wondering if results will be in. 
Seems silly, I know, but there it is.

More seriously, a couple are left, and then I'm done!
No, he didn't kill four Prophets. That would be bad. Two of those four mentioned by Murrin were Orlen and MacLaomainn, who killed each other a couple of Turns ago. No, the guy only killed two Prophets in a turnFist and Faith wrote:Edit: Oh, and also:Some guy killed four Prophets in one turn?!?!?!???

Turn is in! The deadline for next turn will be Saturday, March 29, 11 pm GMT (hey, you didn't think I'd process turns during Easter, did you? 
).
The map now shows Manifested or Aspected deities as bright blue-white areas, bearing the name of the deity in white italics just next to it. However, it makes no distinction between Aspect and Manifestation - so don't assume all those deities are fully Manifested!

Uh, Xar, I don't mean to be a stickler, but didn't you say that I would have an easier turn in celebration for my pregnancy?
Why then do I have three crusades launched against me?????

cause... i'm from Kentucky
and that's not what we brag about.

I may be jumping the gun here, but I didn't get my results, Xar. Could you resend?

Well said, Paolo.
I didn't get everything I hoped to get, but I am immensely satisfied with what I did get.
Now to attempt to take care of a couple of new problems, and to continue dealing with a long term problem...

It's just an over-used, well known internet meme. Nothing meant by it.
(I was only going to post the image with the circle, but at the last minute decided I'd be wasting a perfect opportunity to reference said meme. All for humour's sake.)
