OHHHHh my. Memories of the long conversation THAT sparked in the newsGroups the first time.
If you are going to do this I would split it into 2 threads. The initial desire was to give newbies something they could play with, learn with, and soon develop a desire to improve on. And to do it soon.
Designing a pretender for that purpose IMHO is quite different than designing the best and winningest pretender for each race. Deciding for example that a race has its best chance pursuing a purely astral path and pushing fast toward a particular spell is a very different discussion than what a newbies starting god should be.
Hmmm we would need 3 new ones though.
