Given the revitalization of the forum elimination games on the main Civ6 forum and the lively discussions we've had in the Ideas forum, I thought it would be fun to try something like this here.
I selected 20 of the biggest contenders that have never made it into a Civ game before. The object is to see which civ(s) can muster enough popular support to make the cut!
Standard Forum Elimination Game Rules:
1) Every 24 hours, you add 1 point to one civilization you want to see and subtract 3 points from a civ that you don't think would (or should) make the cut.
2) Each civ starts with 20 points. First civ eliminated takes last place, and so forth. Last surviving contender takes the Gold!
3) Give a reason each time you vote for why you chose as you did.
4) Don't comment in the thread unless your post contains your daily votes.
5) Don't get upset because Civ X wasn't included or because Civ Y was. It's just a game. A game about another game, no less.
6) When voting for a selection labelled "Other," specify which civ you are voting for. You cannot vote for fictional civs.
