Ankh-Morpok was just uncreated

You can only use a Holy Day Power once per day.

Thank you.  I misinterpreted the Universal-Holy Day combination.

Hmmm. Ok. You were using My new power, not reusing Yours… Your action *was* legal. Redoing it

Yes, I indicated that when I created the city.  As the rules are now, it seems a little ambiguous whether Universal-Holy Day powers may be used often by each Diety, or whether they may only be used a total of once per day.  If the former, then my action was legal.  If the latter, I have a proposal ready to forbid U-HD U-Festival combinations (not that I have any grudge, but it just isn’t fun to have a power that makes people wait around hoping to be the first one to use it for the day).

Doesn’t seem ambiguous from here. “This power can be used by any Deity. Power cannot be used more than often.” - there’s nothing about it creating copies of powers, or anything. And yes, this isn’t fun.

I agree with Kevan. I think the power itself can only be used once per day, by anyone.
