[ WP ] Every God had to choose a race and a planet to manage , but for some reason all gods who choose humanity had given up . A young godling decided to take matter to its hand .

From the moment I gained omnipotence, I knew what I wanted; a challenge. Sure, other gods had tried and failed to lead the inhabitants of Earth on a more Utopian path, but most had either simply given up or been corrupted by the humans lustful and greedy nature. 
 
 The'cool kids' of godhood had lost their powers after first screwing up Greece, then changing their names and doing the same to Rome with their acquired debauchery. Others had saved the pretty little planet from aliens over India, only to lose their powers after succumbing to human temptations as well. 
 
 In the middle east, Jehovah had resisted the human charms by rarely interacting with them, but this remote approach left too much to the human imagination. This of course led to at least three different interpretations of his intent, and even after he visited them personally and told them exactly how they should treat each other, some still would n't give up their old beliefs. After his third visit was totally misconstrued, he gave up and retired to the edge of the universe. The last anyone heard from him, he was trying to make galaxies that looked like Earth animals just to freak them out. 
 
 Many had tried, both alone and in groups, to get the humans to pull their heads out of their asses and see what they could accomplish when they worked together. All had failed. 
 
 I knew the dangers. Their worship was intoxicating and their forms so beautiful, it would be difficult not to fall into the same traps as the others, but I have a plan. It's been a few centuries since any of the gods would risk it, and now a human on one side of the planet could easily communicate with another on the other side almost instantly. I would use this to my advantage. 
 
 Instead of doing helpful things to attain their worship, I will do terrible things and make them hate me. I will set forth rules for them to follow and if they disobey, it wo n't be some vague threat of eternal damnation that punishes them, I will literally set them on fire at the very moment of their transgression. I will deliver these rules personally, in the middle of one of their large sporting events, perhaps the'super bowl' or the'world cup', and then incinerate anyone on the planet who doubts me in that instant. That should get their attention. 
 
 I will either lead humanity to reach its full potential, or I'll destroy them all in the attempt. Either way, I'll be the last god they'll need.
