You all have done a number of things to make cf less time consuming and a lot more fun. Is there any chance you all could look at empowerment again? I like the concept and I think it was great when you had a large number of religions to choose from. However, you all are down to only a few religions. There is nothing less fun than having an imm who up and deletes or just get tied up with life and you get stuck with a nomad character. You as a player have to just grin an bear it and hope someone else picks up the slack. Why not make it so that any imm can empower but only the patron imm can tatoo? I guess what I am saying is if I have four free hours in my day and my choices are sit on a computer and stare at the screen or or go outside to my pool. I am leaning toward the pool. I think you all recognize this because empowerment was raised from level 11 to 20; however, I think that is a band-aid solution.

I still haven't heard an alternate system proposed I like as much or better -- including this one.

What about making religions sort of like cabals? Where the sphere and religions are combined?

When I got imm exp the other day. What about instead of tying empowerment to a specific god/religion, you tied it loosely with imm exp?
