Totally Random


Relevant discussion

This poll will run for 96 hours.

I chose Commercial and Industrious, and that is the only game I really want to play. I think it would be interesting to play a game where we forgo the halved production of improvements that come with some of these traits. I don't think we have ever played a game where we didn't get a break on something, so let's play one now. It will give us an entirely balanced game and won't cause us to veer too strongly in one direction.

I voted Comercial and Industrious as well. It is the most powerful bit when used together (and not under a Conquest Bug). Playing as Joan will be a fun experience that leads to much role playing, government ideas, and overly long musicals and books about poor people. Vote France! Vote Joan! (And vote for a mod to use some other leader head)
Everybody!

I chose Random. But I voted Commercial as well, since it seems Random oisn't going to win and in that case Commercial would be most fun and versatile (o.k. Industrious is better and versatile, but that is boring due to over-use).

Expansionist/Industrious, dont know why everyone says the uS is terrible, i do VERY good with them.

 

[Cyc]

Sarevok went for the Cowboys, I went for the Indians... Expansionist/Religious!

 

[Sarevok]

nah, not cowboys, I prefer the marines.

Hmmm – currently neck and neck between Joan and Cleo!

I struggled with the choice on this one. I would have liked to go random, but could understand that people would not want to play a Civ that had been played in a previous demogame. I finally went for Industrious/Commercial (faster workers, less corruption, more shields and commerce) – vote for Joan! It’s not a Civ I’ve ever played before and think it would be a good challenge for a demogame (pity about the leader head though).

Vote Joan!

 

[Stuck_as_a_Mac]

Hmm.. This thing ends in 6 hours. Looks like were going to have to put up another poll, Joan vs Cleo. Battle of the.... Uh... Ugly Female Leaderheads?

 

[Furiey]

Could be worse - we could have Catherine!

 

[Vander]

2 1/2 hours, and it's looking like Cleo. (She's not that bad...)

 

[Furiey]

We need more votes for Joan - Think of fun to be had as the French inventing new taunts for the Knights of the Round Table thread!
(Can anyone top "I fart in your general direction" though!)

 

[Stuck_as_a_Mac]

They'll be a run off, due to a 2 point margin. The top 3, I believe.

You don't frighten us, English pig dogs! Go and boil your bottoms, you sons of a silly person! I blow my nose at you, so-called "Arthur King,"

 

[Stuck_as_a_Mac]

Will there be a run off with the top choices or are we going to just take the top two?

-SaaM, who really doesnt want to be Cleo.

 

[Bootstoots]

Here's an interesting fact about Egypt, if we decide to go that way:

Egypt is the only civilization that has been destroyed in all three demogames.

I may grant some leeway in the actual "Knights" thread, but any mention of flatulence is strictly forbidden in any official poll or discussion. You can then surmise that any attempt at one upsmanship of this challenge will be frowned upon as well.

Nice one, DZ. What was that? Six posts? Thanks for deleting them, and can we get an answer for the question?

 

[Donovan Zoi]

Sorry, SaaM. But I have been railing against gaseous expulsions as a form of humor ever since that vile Pumba hit the big screen.

And yes, the poll should be a runoff between Joan and Cleo, though I will probably have a quick discussion on it first to make sure that is okay with everyone.
