What is a Divine Intervention Game?
A DI is a game that has actual human beings roleplaying as deities, helping shape up the game world and the storyline. Only one human player is selected, and every 50 (or so) turns, the player posts their progress (as if telling a fantasy tale, with pictures and whatnot) and their save file. At this point the deities pick up the save and edit it to their heart's content (with certain limitations), giving the player quests, rewarding them or smiting them with their (un)holy might and enhancing the storyline. The player then takes the edited save file and resumes playing. This back and forth savefile juggling and storytelling action continues until the player meets their demise or achieves a victory.

We're considering starting a second DI game (the first one kind of... died), and we'd like opinions on which civ would be more fun to watch, play and manipulate next. Vote for it, but bear in mind that we're leaning more towards civs with no ties to any specific deity/angel.
While we're at it, we could also (re)clarify who's going to be which angel in this thread. (Re)Post your angel and I'll update accordingly.
