Story

Idealisms are clashing between two members, arguing over what to worship. Will it create turmoil in the tribe, or even separation? Or will it all blow over, with one faction left to wither in the shadows of the past? Nothing’s over yet…

Grand master @OmnipotentFNarr, please remember to include @Spleehae in the next round (if we evolve).

Post filler: Huh nevermind. I’m going to increase the artificial post count, according to @Biologicah.

349

Yeah, I’m a freakin’ pyro! YEAH! Oh, hum… kinda scary actually…

350

@Ansc also asked to be included in this next evolution.

We could base our evolution on the current path our tribe going to (like analyzing the current culture, etc). The two tribes would probably further migrate to other regions of the worlds and then specialize in different climates (if they went to colder places, they would have more fur, if they went to somewhere where grass is tall, they would become taller, etc). I really do not know, it’s just an idea.

I think we’ll probably start to migrate with neanderthalis or further as they were nordic if I remember correctly (IIRC).

READY!!!

let’s EVOLVE!!!

355

i am ready to evolve.

Idea: The two tribes become different species. Each person controls one tribe, and the 42ist tribes (Homo responsum) are in a constant war with the Potassist tribes (Homo ariera). The next evolution would happen when one of the species are extinct, finally establishing the Earth’s dominant species.

the idea for the game is that the player evolves their own species to the civ stage and conquer the galaxy meaning that there will be competition between the Homos. so one species isn’t quite right.

That’s what I’m saying. There will be war between them, finally extincting one. But that would be just the first war. I believe these 42-Potassist Wars would happen in 2.5 mya. There would be more competition further in the game.

359

what i’m saying isn’t about extinction, more than one species could survive to become civilised, and compete with humans for dominance of the galaxy, each with their own religions and nations.

and religions can’t last millions of years. they would face shattering and spilting, and eventually change to be unrecognisable, think christianity 2000 years ago and now, it changed alot.

360
And Homo sapiens will win the grand prix of survival. Plus, sapiens will reproduce with other species only to kill them later.
361

scientists are unsure if we killed off the other homos or they died by themselves, also, another species could potentialy beat humans, or live with them.

362

I was only saying that as a joke actually.

Get it? No, nevermind. It was kinda weirdo joke.

363

Hey, @OmnipotentFNarr. Everyone is pready!

haha, pready

Let’s go!

oof, i increased the artificial post count
