	In the games here, I have played the Diety. I did have a
country, but it was understood that my country was strictly for me
to try and play with the logistics of the game. I created the country
as an island, with only one entrance, and was pretty much left alone.
Of course, the 3 war canoes might have had something to do with it.
The game lasted a fairly long time, until the players grew bored with
it and nuked me, setting off a rather elaborate chain reaction. No
new games have been since started, the general feeling being that it
took too much time and effort. I am waiting to see the next version.
One plea to psl, please make the god interface a little friendlier.
It should at least have the same power as the normal interface.
Empfix is particularly burdonsome if one wants to do a little
modification to the world before starting the game.
