Just for Fun: Guess the Leaders! All 52 of them!

[Gwaja]

I had a look through. Seems to much like hard work! If it was split into batches of 13 and I wasn't on my 4th beer I would probably have a go.

Oh my god! BEER! I could really use one right now. ^_^

 

[lymond]

^^^^pretty sad on Sulie from a guy who happens to possess a degree in History

Ah is the song:

Sh-Sh-Sh-Shaka Khan...Shaka Khan

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Oh go on then. I'll split it myself

Spoiler part 1 :

#01: Face me when I am talking to you! How long does it take for you to look at me when I am talking to you? Having a headache?

Joaoaoa or whatever his name is.

#02: Oh, such elegance! Love that curtsey. I wish I was so elegant like that!

Liz

#03: I don't think he likes the way people call him. Frankie sounds more manly than that!

Hmm, dunno. Fred?

#04: I used to like the way you looked in Vanilla. Now? Not so much.

Qin or Kublai - I'll guess Kublai

#05: Are you from this Earth or are you really an alien?

Suryavarman

#06: Quite jumpy, aren't we? Anyways, I don't like you because you are a classic backstabber.

Alex?

#07: I think I prefer going to McDonald's than going to your place.

Julius?

#08: I don't know how you men used to wear your hair all that curly and white. Is that even your real hair?

Washington

#09: Joseph McCarthy loves you! ^_^

Stalin

#10: Are you sure you weren't in that movie... uh... "Silence of the Lambs?"

Dunno

#11: Okay, just exactly what are you doing with your mask on? It looks like as if you are blind and trying to reach for something.

Pericles

#12: If Justinian was alive at your time, you probably wouldn't have captured... Oh never mind!

Mehmed?

#13: The most depressing name for a 2nd city. Really, I prefer rich dads, not poor ones. Sorry!

Sitting Bull

EDIT: I know #10 now

Spoiler :

Hannibal

 

[lymond]

PS ...how can you not know #7 ?!!!!!

I gave the same wrong answer to #1 as well

 

[ParadigmShifter]

I miscounted! I have only had 3 beers so far!

Spoiler part 2 :

#14: Get away from me chubby man! And your arrogance bugs me. "I am the State?" Really?

Louis

#15: Speaking of diet... you really need one, girl! ^_^

Victoria

#16: I heard you were quite fond of soaking yourself in blood after a ritual. Maybe that's why you are such a psycho.

Monty

#17: Oooh, I love that music... is that considered salsa?

Maybe this is Joaoaoaoaoa

#18: Nice BEARD you got there. But please stop showing it off. You don't need to constantly be combing it, or whatever it is you are doing with it.

Jimmy Hill (Saladin)

#19: So I am interested in this calendar of your people that is supposed to bring doom to our world. Is this really gonna happen?

? Pacal? I'm sure he turns up later with put some clothes on though

#20: Your unique unit is grossly overpowered. At least you are not a warmongering psycho! Say... can you build me some more wonders for me to capture later?

Gus

#21: Stop rubbing your nose already! And no, I don't have any undefended coastal cities for you, thank you very much!

Rags

#22: Can I hire you as my gardener? I want one of those gardens in my high rise apartment veranda.

Hamsterubai

#23: I prefer the way you look now, than the way you used to look in Vanilla.

Qin

#24: Your unique unit's battle animation is just too fancy. But then again, I always love fireworks!

Wang. Really - I thought you would laugh at this name and not the one that comes later

#25: Can you please stop trading away so many techs please?

Mansa

#26: You don't look like someone who is associated with blood and iron. You look too gentle and fragile to be associated with them.

Bizzy?

EDIT: #1 must be

Spoiler :

Hamsterubai

then.

 

[Gwaja]

@lymond:

I think that is the singer's name, but not a name of the song. ^_^

@ParadigmShifter:

Spoiler :

#01: Nope. This leader seems to be having a headache when you try to talk to this person.
#02: YAY!
#03: Nah... people in this forum gave him a nickname that is rather... girlish. Frankie fits the ball better since.. well... his name was Frank.. or Franklin anyway.
#04: YAY!
#05: YAY!
#06: Nope. This leader sorta jumps at you in surprise upon contact, like as if he/she didn't expect to have face-to-face conversation.
#07: Another nickname thing. And the nickname just happens to be associated with a major burger joint in USA.
#08: The OTHER guy with the white, curly hair. Washington is eliminated through process of elimination.
#09: YAY!
#10: YAY!
#11: YAY!
#12: YAY!
#13: YAY!

See... that wasn't too bad. ^_^

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Spoiler part 3 :

#27: I was wondering why your nation's soccer fans love to show up in games all dressed in that same color, associated with some fruit. Is that because of your name?

Willy

#28: Stop pounding your chest already! And perhaps you might want to think about getting more clothes on you?

Monty then, but Pacal seems more suitable

#29: Oh yeah, I am so damn happy to see you too! NOT!

Cathy

#30: #29 says "Hey you stole my Vanilla traits!"

Cyrus I think...

#31: Say... how long are you gonna be keeping your hands together like that?

Asoka

#32: I am sorry, but I don't plan on keeping Nationhood as my civics forever. And your unique unit is terrible.

Rigsby (Napoleon)

#33: It always gives me the chuckles when people mention your name.

Not Wang or Willy? Hmmm.... Pass

#34: You remind me of the movie "Braveheart" in a way. Well, at least you are of the same ethnic origin, right? ^_^

Brennus?

#35: I feel.... sleeeeeepy.....

No idea

#36: Wow you got such a temper! Why can't you be like your other countryman in this game and be more gentle for a change?

No idea

#37: I wanna be your friend... PLEASE! Uh... maybe not!

No idea

#38: Resistance without violence.... you have my respect, sir!

Alf Garnett (Gandhi)

#39: Oh, how magnificent!

Dunno

 

[Gwaja]

@ParadigmShifter (Round 2)

Spoiler :

All YAY!!! except for #17. ^_^

I think you need more beer. Beer is good for you! ^_^

(Round 3)

Spoiler :

#27: YAY!
#28: I don't think Monty pounds his chest though. And since you already got Pacal from previous question, that only leaves....
#29: Nope. It seems like this one is one of the hardest one.
#30: Nope, but you are actually close.
#31: YAY!
#32: Nationhood is only liked by 3 leaders, and Napoleon isn't one of them.
#33: I kinda understand what you mean with Wang... but there is someone with a forum nickname that rhymes with chuckles.
#34: YAY!
#35: Another one of those forum nickname thing.
#36: Ever seen this leader get mad or not pleased when you talk to this person? He/she really has a temper!
#37: The most difficult AI leader to befriend from the beginning, just because of his tendencies to be a loner.
#38: YAY!
#39: Historical name thing. The world "Magnificent" is the key.

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Doing this stoopid quiz is slowing me down beer wise. tsk

Spoiler part 4 :

#40: What did Lenin have against you to change the name of your glorious city like that? At least it is back to the way it was.

Peter

#41: Again, I don't plan on sticking around with Nationhood forever. At least your unique unit isn't as bad as the other dude. Or am I downplaying it too much there? ^_^

De Gaulle? First thought was Winston

#42: You know... I swear there is a song named after your name!

Dunno

#43: Your clothes look like... hmm.. I don't know... a workout jersey or something. Did they actually have clothes like that in your time?

Zara?

#44: Oooh my... your hair style is seriously the worst of everyone. The worst condition of balding ever!

Winston then

#45: It's sad when there is a plague named after your name. At least you didn't die from it.

Dunno

#46: You are the cutest leader of all in this game. Such a cute smile at that too. But that hat of yours has got to go!

Hats!

#47: Et tu Gwaja?

Julius then

#48: Remind me again not to play as you on unaltered Earth maps. It's got to be the worst starting condition anyone can ask for.

Capac I spose

#49: Girl...let's see who's got more tattoos... you or me! ^_^

Booty

#50: Nothing really jumps at me about you... except for that baby blues fabric.

Dunno

#51: I am a little shaky with history... do you come first or #46? Do you think your unique unit is better than the one by #50?

Louis? I thought he was the fat one

#52: Okay... stop trying to pose all fancy with your hair and stuff. You are the polar opposite of #02 in history.... tsk tsk.

Suleiman only one left I can think of

 

[lymond]

PS - I'm still laughing during the process of typing to your answer to #33

 

[Gwaja]

LOL @ PS... I am sorry for delaying your rounds of beer. I would be kinda annoyed too myself. ^_^

On final round:

Spoiler :

#40: YAY!
#41: Winston is correct. DeGaulle NOT.
#42: Wow... nobody knows the song?
#43: YAY!
#44: Oh, Winston is bad with his bald hair... true.. but since he is #41, it has to be someone else.
#45: A plague, around the time of Black Death, is named after this leader.
#46: YAY!
#47: YAY!
#48: YAY!
#49: YAY!
#50: Nothing really struck me about him except that he was very benevolent in history. That, and his baby blue fabric he is wearing.
#51: You got #46, so you can't miss this one. Same civilization.
#52: Oh no way. You got #2, which is Liz. Think of another woman who is polar opposite of her in history.

Thanks for playing! Can you pass me the beer? ^_^

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Wang always pops up at the most inconvenient moments. There could be fireworks though.

EDIT: Right, I know who #52 is then.

Spoiler :

Izzy

So how many did I get then - you do the work from now on! I'm getting beer #5!

 

[Gwaja]

PS - I'm still laughing during the process of typing to your answer to #33

Mister, you still haven't gotten all of them yet. ^_^

 

[ParadigmShifter]

Yeah I know who #33 is as well now obviously. I just have a dirty mind.

 

[lymond]

I'm at a complete loss on the others. I'd probably have to open the game and start up a game for each leader.

Now the song one bugs me. I eagerly await finding this one out at some point. Not....A...Clue

 

[ParadigmShifter]

I have my own songs for every leader.

I think Suleiman's is the best:

Suleiman! Suleiman! You're a really Silly Man! Suleiman! Suleiman! Yeah!

EDIT: Brennus' is ok too, based on his diplo music:

I've got a Harley Davidson, ooh ooh a Harley Davidson, I've got a Harley Davidson Harley Harley Harley Davidson.

 

[Gwaja]

Actually on #42 about the song:

Here is the video of it, if you are interested.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7i9ozy739c8

 

[ParadigmShifter]

LOL that song is terrible. And the Eurovision Song Contest? Surely you can do better than that!

Here's a song about one of the Leaders:


Link to video.

 

[iggymnrr]

The pair with "You stole my vanilla traits."

Spoiler :

Wouldn't be Washington/Darius would it? If correct it's not fair that I pay Darius a lot and sometimes Washington in Vanilla."

 

[Gwaja]

@iggymnrr,

Spoiler :

You are absolutely correct, sir!

And if you noticed it or not, when Washington introduces himself when you first meet him, he says "I am darn happy to see you!" or something in those lines. He used to be Financial/Organized, but now that trait combo is indeed replaced by Darius.
