What do you do?

1. It was 100% all my fault since I killed lots of innocents. I should be glad to still exist at all (Accept my humble status in the new order of things, overall be quite positive about this)

29%
2. Their attitude greatly annoys me and I feel my treatment is at least partly unjustified, but I’m too scared and broken to rebel again; plus if I fail again they’re going to wreck me this time. (Very begrudgingly I accept my new humbled status in the new order of things, I will stew in resentment every day as the Gods tell me what to do)

3. I was a Mistake? LET ME SHOW YOU! I am greater and more powerful than any of you, HOW DARE YOU TREAT ME LIKE THIS! (Begin plotting against the Gods again, start another world war when the time is right)

I wish to save human race and to build a new nation-state, with ideals like human rights, peace and prosperity for all despite of any difference, avoiding the tyranny and preserving the liberty. To grow, to aid and save each other. Also going interstellar. Even if abandoned by family and nobody cares, I wish to do something important in life before to die, something that may really count.
I'm so alone on Earth and I see how the world may fall into chaos. All looks irrational and immoral. It's a pain to not be able to do anything and to be surrounded by barbarians.

Well here where things get meta
I, as a person, am a Buddhist, so the idea of the quiet retirement seems rather appropriate
But if I’m god would I still be a Buddhist?
Would my moral view of repentance be different?
Or would I go through similar enough development that I’d end up the same way?

3.

Not because its "morally right" on some "objective" level this God obviously has not reached, but because it'd probably what I'd feel at the time.

Though honestly... this is just me ofc lol.. but from my perspective, this entire scenario seemed like a metaphor for our spiritual enslavement under YHWH and his demonic way of thinking... :(

Yes.

The odds of victory are 40-60 and you can probably at least take some of the Gods down.

If this were a movie though, you'd probably lose again (and believe it or not... plead for your life again). I mean, you have double crossed them again but you know... it worked one time???? This is the type of default character you're dealing with.

Now depending on the poster, the tendency to plot/go to war again may differ (as may the final outcome depending on the specific roll of dice).

Because waging war on the scale you describe is not something that can just happen over the space of a few minutes. You can't have a lapse in judgement that lasts for years.


Hmmm....

I don't know what to say to that

Ah, I misread, I thought the two of you were debating on how you (in the scenario) would've been responsible for the deaths of millions.
As you can see, I was merely pretending to be intelligent.

Yes I suppose those themes are reflected.

Another thing I was thinking about was the criminal justice system, stigmatisation, and re-offending. Though this is obviously on a more cosmic level with higher stakes.

The more I think about it, the more Option 3 is starting to sound like:

"WAIT! ... I... I SURRENDER! I... I REPENT! I SEE THE ERROR OF MY WAYS! Don't kill me... PLEASE... DON'T! I... I DON'T WANT DIE! PLEASE!"

(fast forward x12 for a while)

"
"I was a Mistake? LET ME SHOW YOU! I am greater and more powerful than any of you, HOW DARE YOU TREAT ME LIKE THIS! ... NOW YOU SHALL ALL DIE!"

(starts the next war to destroy all the Gods)
