My current game:
Order+3, Luck+2. Turn 17. Just got a Vastness (!) with my skill-9 (now 10) SS priest. I also have gotten 3 Things from the Void, 3 Formless Spawns, 9 Othernesses, and 3 Greater Othernesses (one of which attacked). 
At least for me, the Luck seems to be making a difference ... |

I've also tried Luck+3 summoning OFC, and I can't see much of a difference. And I got a Vastness in the first 20 turns too, with Misfortune+3.

Re: Stop the Insanity!
I am guessing I have just been very unlucky. Turn 37, skill at 11, I have gotten my first Otherness. It is pretty cool, but not that cool for all the work. I started again Last night after reading everything and took Fortune +3. I do not think it effects summoning. Speaking of which, I have also received zero national heroes, which I though was next to impossible after so many turns with such a high fortune value.
Starting to look like I am just unlucky, no matter how I tip the fortune scales!

Re: Stop the Insanity!
Staying in the water researching/summoning while the land AIs kill each other can be fun...
Using the hero Cthugul the stargazer, with ritual of returning & returning. Turn 84, 21 skill, about 14 great otherness, but no vastness. Misfortune +1. A few priests that I used before I got the hero have gone insane, but no insanity on this hero yet.

Yep lots of fun but it might be getting harder to do. Apparently there is a 3rd water nation in the works.

As you can see from my earlier post, you're just unlucky. In addition to what I said in that post, I got a hero on turn 4. Your run of lousy luck is truly noteworthy. Look on the bright side: you'll have quite a challenge being so "crippled". I do hope for your sake you are playing AIs and not humans ... |
