Inside the T Forum,
The changes in the Sequence Plan concern all the registered Deity Players.
So even some usually very aloof Mythical Species players are starting to come out and discuss,
"Federation's senior management is coming in strong this time. Preparing two and a half years in advance can surely improve our chances of winning!"
"Yeah, we can set up groundwork in the target world ahead of time."
"Are we talking rules here?"
"Only the rules we approve of are the actual rules."
"Rules are made for others, it's the rule maker who breaks them."
"Can't believe this Taylor Civilization is a mythical-grade civilization. Feeling a bit scared now, regretting signing up on a whim."
"Me too, I'm just a lower-class war race, am I going to be thrashed now?"
"Don't even mention being thrashed, we might not even survive!"
