Hmm, that sounded a bit harsh. Perhaps I should elaborate. If I have started to think on a new summon or nation feature, I tend to avoid anything mentioned by others. I wouldn't want people to say, 'aha, that idea was concieved by me, and now KO is using it'. So I tend to avoid themes and stuff mentioned by others unless I already have a plan or have talked a bit about it before, as is the case of Jomon.

On the other hand I appreciate when modders come up with their own and fully developed nations, even if I had similar ideas. Especially when my ideas are vague and not too developed.
I like Endos kalevala stuff, since I like the mythos, and would like to see it in the game, but am at a bit of a loss as to how I should develop it and haven't delved into it myself enough to make it justice.
I like HoneyBadgers Aksum mod even though he stole the name I had intended for a possible LA Machaka . It is interesting and far more developed than my disparate thoughts.
