Back before the first looks started, a few dozen people contributed their lists of guesses of the civs to come in R&F in this thread: https://forums.civfanatics.com/thre...d-leaders-should-be-introduced-in-r-f.624904/
I copied out 36 lists posted prior to the Korea first look, hoping to find a few prescient guessers among us. Alas, my search was in vain, as we all did pretty poorly.
In summary, many people correctly guessed Korea, Mongolia, and the Netherlands/Dutch. A handful of people guessed the Zulu or Georgia, but no one had both on their list. No one guessed Scotland, the Cree, or the Mapuche.
Note that I did not consider a guess for the Celts to be a prediction of Scotland or a general guess of a Native North American civ to be specific enough for the Cree.
Eight people got four civs correct (listed in chronological order of their posts):
@rambow13
@DJ_Tanner
@Remmert
@bite
WillowBrook
@Zaarin
@Vahnstad
@chronoturner
Congrats!
But why did we do so poorly? Too much group think, keeping people from unconventional guesses? Or were three of the civs just totally unpredictable?
