You're not supposed to count the words introducing the words, I think...
What do you propose Ragnarok Mode would do, exactly?

It already exists, just only allowed for the Bannor. Its called Crusade.
i was thinking that the civ that had the most people worshipping that religion(extra points for the holy city) would get an avatar that would come down from heaven, and initiate a sort of "regicide mode" for religions
if your avatar is killed, your religion loses the game
however- weaker religions could unite against stronger religions.
i suppose its more of a late game thing if you want to tie it together with armageddon(with or without a wonder)

I see this as tying in with QES' Paragon of a religion idea
Sorry, eerr. It's not four words. It is two words. Technically, by your logic, you could say this:
Six words: Four words: Ragnarok mode
This could go on ad infinitum, and therefore you could say Infinite words: Ragnarok mode.
That makes no sense. You are making the point that there are X words that you would like to reveal to the world. Since the amount of words is not what you would like to reveal to the world (I don't care that "I am a Civ player" is five words. I care that you're a civ player.), those words are not included in your count.
Ergo, Two Words: Ragnarok Mode
except i don't need to describe it ad infinitum, Though, I would like to keep the option open. how dare you imply that i'm not trying to reaveal all four words to the player? maybe i put this here just to annoy people such as yourself into responding with a correction?, maybe i put it here because I though it was slightly creative-something that there would not normally be done creatively-that of expressing a new idea with a twist without greatly modfying it.
five words:Ragnarok powns you.

Or maybe you just made a mistake?
Anyway, back on topic...
This seems to me to be extremely similar to the religious victory. Just, instead of using percentages, you use a solitary unit (Is that even what Ragnarok is? I thought Ragnarok was where the Norse dead went?) Anyway, I don't like tying a victory condition to one specific unit. Plus, what would happen when your avatar dies? Does your entire civilization disappear? Does it convert to barbarians? Or do you just go on playing without the possibility of winning "Ragnarok" victory? It seems to me that if a god sent an avatar down to a civilization to conquer all other religions, and said civilization lost the avatar, thereby losing the war, the god would be REALLY pissed off. You would need some kind of extremely harsh penalty for losing? Perhaps the religion would be completely removed from all of your cities if you lost, and it would never be able to spread there again?

It would be interesting if you could create some ritual that causes all civs to remove any religion that isn't their state religion (except CotD) from their cities then have an automatic declaration of war between civs of different religions.

OR we could have Evil civs immediately converted to Ashen Veil, Good civs to The Order, and neutrals remain untouched... It's a bit unbalanced but flavor-wise....
instead of "one word" you just say "word"
Six Words and a smiley: DUH!
Finally... someone who understands!
I actually though about whether i wanted to write two or four quite a bit...(it was very deliberate)
