GodvilleIt's a Sign*Divine Signs*
The life of an ordinary hero is quite determined: you can expect him to do certain things in a certain order. It's nice but will be better with a bit of variety.
Please welcome the new divine power: _signs_! Occasionally a hero may wonder: "Should I spend gold this time?" or "Should I search for a shortcut?" or "Should I improvise in a prayer?". You can spot these thoughts in the diary by @ symbol and bless him by sending a sign (or just ignore, to let things go as usual).
Make sure you are using the latest Godville app ("Android":https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.godvillegame.android, "iOS":https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/godville/id353421868?mt=8). If you want to stay on top of heroic requests, you can turn on the new push notification option for Signs in the app's settings.
*New Achievements*
Last "achievements":https://wiki.godvillegame.com/Achievements were added quite a while ago, so it's about time for refreshments:
* _Careerist_ achievement got the highest Honored rank - hundreds of 1st rank Careerists with 800+ days in the guild under their belts are about to attain this one.
* _Coach_ and _Miner_ achievements now also have Honored rank, though requirements for the top-tier are quite demanding. Their progress will update after the next spar and datamine respectively.
* Finally, a brand new achievement for side jobs is almost ready, but it lacks the last thing - a proper title. If you have an idea of a single catchy word that perfectly describes a serial side job-er, make sure to suggest it in the comments. *UPD:* Thanks for all the suggestions! Freelancer it is then. Heroes will get it after the next successful side job.
*Picturize 2.0*
Did you know that you can turn any game phrase into a picture just with a couple taps? Well, now you surely know. And today's app update makes this feature more awesome: now you can change fonts and add decors. Here is how it may look like:

Last note: September is coming, and so is the mushroom season. Yummy!
2021-08-27T16:17:27ZWanamingo<p>A sign you say? Looking forward to that. Thanks!</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:21:22 +0100Toastwyrm<p>Looks like this is a sign for us to keep playing! Thanks Devs!</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:21:35 +0100Om3<p>Thanks for the update! Title for side-jobers: ‘Multitasker’</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:24:50 +0100Kei-imouto<p>I agree with <strong>Om3</strong>. I was also gonna suggest the side job title as “Multitasker”.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:30:12 +0100WardPhoenix<p>Again a great update, can’t wait to the signs in action! A title for side-job achievement ? “Workaholic” !</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:32:11 +0100Miss Molly Q<p>Oddjobber. Hustler.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:32:54 +0100Archanid<p>For the side job rank I’m thinking “Side Hustler” since the “side hustle” moniker is so prevalent nowadays.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:33:01 +0100Solenopsis<p>Thanks for the update :))</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:34:13 +0100TaiJuan<p>Thanks, Devs, these are good additions! You’re always making the game better.</p>
<p>Side job achievement: Moonlighter</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:35:40 +0100Elfen<p>In the US we call those side-jobs side-gigs. So how about a gigabiter? Sink those teeth into a side- gig my heroine! Thanks for the update!</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:38:52 +0100Mrkef<p>Side job achievement: Workaholic</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 16:41:06 +0100Mattygroves<p>Do the signs work on the old fashioned web browser? I haven’t (yet) moved to the app! I’m old :D</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:00:07 +0100TheBloodyNine<p>Agree with TaiJuan – Moonlighter</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:01:49 +0100Dieudonnee<p>We could call the sidejob achievement Polyworker. (As reference to this inane article: https://digiday.com/marketing/the-job-juggle-gen-z-and-millennial-employees-embrace-the-concept-of-polywork/)</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:06:05 +0100Newsletter<p>Brilliant</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:09:44 +0100Recliner<p>This is a very nice addition. Thank you, Devs!</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:12:24 +0100Sniper404<p>Yay another update… keep up the great work!</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:17:53 +0100Jimbob64<p>Nice way to spruce things up a little.<br />
I found out when I suddenly got Honored Careerist, and that Coach thing means <strong>Hairplug4men</strong> and I finally have a real use for 500+ not-so-talkative friends on our lists.</p>
<p>“All right you guys- form an orderly line for sparring.”</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:18:38 +0100Beausoleil<p>Achievement name suggestions:<br />
Jobber<br />
Side Hustler</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:18:44 +0100Bigazzy<p>Very nice update, thank you!</p>
<p>I agree with those who said to call it Hustler</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:20:28 +0100Dean2706<p>I came here to suggest Moonlighter, but I can see I have been beaten to the punch.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:44:38 +0100Auwall<p>Nice!</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:52:36 +0100Okita<p>I like Freelancer for the new achievement.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 17:55:09 +0100S624<p>Seconding <strong>Okita</strong> for Freelancer (& that’ll teach me for not posting it earlier).</p>

<p>18:05 Looks like this time I can party at others expense. Mighty One, give me a sign if you approve.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>First sign I’ve seen, 25% GP for a free party.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 18:17:13 +0100The-Bright-Lord<p>What about calling the new achievement “Handyman”?</p>
<p>IRL, a Handyman is someone who does lots of side jobs.<br />
:)</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 18:27:01 +0100DArgo Sun-Cohen<p>For side jobs: Overachiever</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 18:27:40 +0100Hankvi Guidza<p>Yay more things to accomplish and hero-sit! I wondered when the heroes would get their signs they wouldn’t shut up about.</p>
<p>So colorful and lively – thank you as always!</p>
<p>Maybe Jobjuggler for the achivo? ¯\<em>(ツ)</em>/¯</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 18:40:40 +0100SiliconElvis<p>For side jobs … Überer</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 18:50:54 +0100Kalef<p>For side job achievement: Workaholic</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:00:45 +0100SiliconElvis<p>Side job achievement: Job Gigger</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:01:55 +0100Immortal Vulture<p>Side job achievement could be called “Freelancer”</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:13:46 +0100Valkie<p>Side job: driven by distraction</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:17:14 +0100Cham Almighty<p>Came to suggest Moonlighter or Moonlighting for the side job achievement and see that I’m not the first — but nonetheless I hope you’ll choose that. It’s perfect!</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:39:51 +0100The Caracal<p>As someone who uses picturize all the time, I love the new additions! One request: can we get a couple Serif fonts in there too? The new choices are great but the only Serif option is monospace.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:47:23 +0100ElricFate<p>Hustler, for your title</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:53:23 +0100Missymiss<p>*Moonlighter for the side job name *</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 19:58:00 +0100Rav the Random<p>A very nice update, good job.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 20:06:40 +0100Jim22<p>For side job title : Side-hustler<br />
And as always, great updates! You guys are great at keeping a ZPG interesting! 👍🏻</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 20:10:09 +0100Nightfall Z<p>Awesome! Thanks developers.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 20:23:26 +0100Sarefiena<p>Well… A person who does odd-jobs is called Jack-of-all-trades.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 20:27:38 +0100Apathanos<p>Side job achievement name: Taskmaster</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 20:28:37 +0100Lucifersgoldenhalo<p>The side job achievement could be called “Hustler” or “Side Hustler” if you can use two words.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 20:59:16 +0100Gigabytemon<p>How about “Jobsalot”?</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 21:13:22 +0100Wonthrie<p>I like the term freelancer. Maybe ‘Gig Worker’.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 21:42:31 +0100TheGourdGod<p>My top pick from those suggested is definitely “freelancer”. Fits with the game and (z)rpg roots. “Hustler” is a solid second though.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 21:56:53 +0100Torenia<p>Thanks for the update! I really like the Divine Signs system.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 22:04:15 +0100Jomiva<p>I like Moonlighter best, but I’m okay with Freelancer or Hustler too.</p>Fri, 27 Aug 2021 23:57:28 +0100Stickyorder<p>Jobsworth?</p>
<p>I like a lot of the suggestions already made.</p>
<p>Thanks for another fun update!</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 00:28:44 +0100Hudson The Horrid<p>Side job: Procrastinator, because you’re obviously not spending time on your main goal / job.</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 00:51:57 +0100Skyangelblue<p>Side job achievement – Moonlighting or Moonlighter,.</p>
<p>Workaholics..</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 01:10:55 +0100Syrocco<p>Side job-er: Gofer? Dogsbody? xD</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 01:52:53 +0100Divine Feline<p>Side job achievement: Detourist. Detour (off the main quest) + tourist.</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 02:03:29 +0100Zenzeon<p>Signing the sign symbol docs…</p>
<p>Ach – Complementor (complementing the main jobs with side ones)</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 04:09:53 +0100Nyctos Katharine<p>Woah, interesting feature. Thanks!</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 04:51:56 +0100Cosh<p>Nice update!</p>
<p>I really like the “detourist” name for side job achievements that was suggested before!</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 07:35:18 +0100Albrithr<p>Yay, new Picturize features!<br />
As for the new achievement, I like Dabbler.</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 07:52:20 +0100Dymphnation<p>How about “Moonlighter”?</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 11:26:32 +0100Dymphnation<p>Or “Oddjob”, or “Oddjobber”? “Bob-a-Jobber” prob meaningless outside the UK</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 11:29:28 +0100Sinical1<p>Side Hustler</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 12:28:27 +0100God of Game<p>“Workaholic”</p>Sat, 28 Aug 2021 17:10:26 +0100Spirit of Tzahal<p>Wonderful stuff as always, devs. Thank you for making Godville awesome!</p>Sun, 29 Aug 2021 10:52:08 +0100Somnogenesis<p>I’d suggest “Sidetracker” for our most perennially sidetracked heroes!</p>Mon, 30 Aug 2021 10:21:43 +0100Somethingian2<p>Poggers</p>Sun, 05 Sep 2021 17:45:50 +0100Jason Blunder<p>Procrastination.</p>
<p>A synonym would work well.</p>
<p>It’s a bit long but sums up what doing a bunch of side jobs is, instead of the main quest is.</p>Mon, 06 Sep 2021 11:28:46 +0100Phoenix Flutterby<p>Meow</p>Thu, 30 Dec 2021 03:28:08 +0000
