final civ/leader pick, part 1

[talonschild]

Two choices each, top two (or three if it's close) go to the run-off.

This will be monitored, and anyone selecting more than two will not be counted.

If you think I missed someone important, comment. Anyone wildly popular in the comments will go to the run-off. And I mean wildly on par with the poll leaders.

REMEMBER: Elizabeth, Ragnar, and the Incas are taken!

EDIT: Goddamn. Meant to pick Asoka, not Darius. Will subtract a Darius vote and add an Asoka vote to compensate. Lemme know if you need to change a vote.

Ops, I did more than 2 choices It is early morning and I voted quick and careless. Sorry for that, can I change vote?

But why would we want only 2 choices? Everyone can cast only 1 vote for a GIVEN choice, so he cant actually manipulate the vote toward his favorite. Even the opposite - with more than 2 votes he makes his vote less concentrated, so it is up to a player to decide. Even with multiple choices, the most desired preferences will still shine.

why not Willem?

 

[Majic]

Good point, although he hasn't been spoken for much. There are so many good choices, especially when they picked Ragnar.. =/

 

[2metraninja]

Willem I can bet will be RB's choice.

Willem is great all overall, but lets try something more unexpected. Also, I would really, really like India first and by the time it is our choice again, Willem will be long ago gone. Just as Pacal, Pericle, Huaina, Mehmed and Darius.

 

[talonschild]

Yeah, 2metra, I'm pretty forgiving. Let me know what needs changing.

 

[YossarianLives]

We're up to pick, and the Spanish team chose Boudica!?!

So, India is all ours if we want it. I think the consensus is pretty strong that India is the way to go as our first pick.

 

[talonschild]

Two more hours and a final poll will go up with India and the two most popular leaders - at present, Darius and Asoka - 2 and 2.

 

[talonschild]

Hell with that, India is clearly favoured. Thanks YossarianLives for realizing it and Sommerswerd for acting on it.

Now let's look at leaders.

Two things I really hope (and pray a bit) are that Spaniards and RB dont happen to be our neighbors.

 

[Majic]

Huh, looks like we'll get the best combo IMHO, whatever the next teams pick.. Unless the germans get Pacal of Inca, which would be interesting.. Also, I hope we wont be next to AGG Rome...

I'm enjoying these snake picks, it's exciting. =P

 

[2metraninja]

Damned League - they picked Darius. I was ready to bet they will pick Pacal. Pacal is believed to be the strongest leader amongst the civplaers. He best suits their ruleset- quick and noble.

Lets see if my prediction about RB picking Willem comes true.
