Should we remove /ə/ then?I didn't quite understood what you meant with ,,Okay.". If not,we need a way to write it. Maybe a digraph?
Yes, let's remove it.

The links with the pronunciations of the rare sounds MUST be in the spreadsheet.
Added.

I think we need to make at least some words, just to mark that we began this seriously.
Not necessarily. For Hunting's project we didn't make any words or affixes until around page 5.
Okay if you say so.
Let's discuss some phonotactics.

What about write tones like this?
á = high tone
a = low tone
aá = rising tone
áa = falling tone
/a/ = a
/e/ = e
/i/ = i
/o/ = o
/u/ = u
/b/ = b
/c/ = c
/d/ = d
/f/ = f
/g/ = g
/j/ = j
/k/ = l
/l/ = l
/m/ = m
/n/ = n
/p/ = p
/r/ = r
/s/ = s
/t/ = t
/ʈʂ/ or /tʃ/ = ch?
/v/ = v
/x/ = h?
/ɣʷ/ = w?
I don't think anything special yet,but let's ask people.
You made mistake with /k/. It will be k,sure.
Instead of x we now have a similar sound with some w above. We shall label it x and /ɣ/ with w shall be written as y.
I have no problem with the rest.
Have a good day!

But I am not sure will the language still be natural - like.
I've heard good things about using sound changes to make a naturalistic conlang. Maybe we should try that here.

What do you think, should this language be monosyllabic or not?
Probably not.
Probably we should try that.
Do you accept Entity Valkyrie 2's suggestions?
Also, what is your native language? You either never said that or I forgot.
Have a good day!

In the tonal languages often not all words are tonal. Even Chinese has some non-tonal words.
What we should do here?

Common words should probably be tonal.
No doubt,if not all.
Phonotactics?
Also, please improve the quality of our sheet.
Have a good day!
