1''Work In Progress'' is a MegaCrossover forum game originally created by {{Tropers/Bindlestick}}, in which gods from all different pantheons come together to take a barren world and sculpt it, bringing life to it in the process. From there, the game follows the gods as they manage their new realms.

3After Bindlestick's departure, the other players kept the game going in a communal GM style, but eventually, the original thread fizzled out. The players then started again, in the same verse after a TimeSkip, subtitled ''Under New Management'', with a mix of fictional gods and a few [[OriginalCharacter OCs]], this time officially selecting {{Tropers/Vox}} as the head GM.

5After that too fizzled out, and one failed attempt at a reboot titled ''Take 3'' by Tropers/AnnoR, the game fell into the pit of abandoned [=RPs=]. About a year later, {{Tropers/Anura}} made another attempt at rebooting the game, which similarly fizzled out.

13%%* CardCarryingVillain
14%%* ColonyDrop: Part of Primus falls off and destroys the Sanctum.
15%%* EvilVersusEvil: Alduin the World Eater against Czernobog the Black God.

17* {{Gotterdammerung}}: The original game ended in a temporary one, which all of the gods sealing themselves up or disappearing. It is the task of ''Under New Management'''s gods to undo it.
18* OrcusOnHisThrone: Czernobog never actually ''leaves'' his realm, the only time he even gets off his mountain is to repel Alduin.
19%%* {{Uberwald}}: The Black God's realm is not a very happy place.
20%%* SealedGoodInACan: The Luna-worshipping cultists didn't manage to kill Celestia, only imprison her. After Arceus took the three-god-powered blast that Alduin redirected towards the ponies, he ended up as this as well.
