Well, recently there have been alot of variants on this forum that have been centered around culture. Be it cultural domination, cultural conquest, etc etc. To break the routine, here is a SG that will shun culture. We hate culture. Culture is bad! 
Leader: Shaka of the Zulu
Map: Pangaea, Temperate & Medium
Difficulty: Monarch
Speed: Normal
Opponents: Alexander, Brennus, Charlamegne, Hammurabi, Monty, Genghis Khan
Variant: Other than our capital and forbidden palace city, no other city may ever have culture in it.
RB Succession game rules apply: http://realmsbeyond.net/civ/sgrules.html
And the starting Location:
I would just like to take this moment to thank sulla for making the necesary changes in worldbuilder for this variant. As you can see, we are starting this game in Islam state religion, but islam is dead, so we cannot get culture from religion.
There are 3 things to consider for this variant that are important:
1. Other than the capital and forbidden palace city, all other cities will never expand borders, so they will probably work a maximum of 8 tiles unless they steal tiles from other cities.
2. We cannot build any national or world wonders in any cities except the capital and FP city. Furthermore, we cannot build libraries, universities, theatres, monastaries, or temples in any of those cities either. Due to the variant, we are limited to 4 national wonders in this game. Gotta think about which ones we want.
3. Diplomatic problems. Since we start the game in Islam, and may never switch out, and no other civ will ever be in Islam, we will always have negative modifiers for state religion until the AI's switch to free religion.
And finally, the Rooster.

The reserved slot is for Uberfish until I find out whether he wants in this game or not. If he does not want to join, I will find a differnet 6th person. I want to run a 6 person roster this game as alot of cities and wars means lengthy turnsets, and both me and TheRat may be away for a little while in october.
We will do 20 turns per set for the first time around the order, and 10 turns per set after that. I want to finalize the roster before starting the game up, hopefully that is done by tommorow.

A lot more than 3 or 4.
) by Sullla so that Islam has been founded and then destroyed so it is present in no cities and cannot be refounded, as we have Islam as our state religion and Islam cannot spread to us we're all right (but can never use Free Religion).
