Never before seen natural wonders - Elimination Thread

[Guandao]

Danxia - 32
Erta Ale - 26
Guilin Mountains - (25+1)=26 Important in Chinese artistic history, even more so than Danxia.
Iguaçu Falls - 23
Kīlauea - 29
Lençóis Maranhenses - (34-3)=31 Getting too high for my liking, would probably require four tiles to show its glory, but Pantanal is already the four tile Brazilian NW.

 

[Xandinho]

Danxia - 32
Erta Ale - 26
Guilin Mountains - 26
Iguaçu Falls - 23
Kīlauea - 29 - 3 = 26 Balancing with Erta Ale
Lençóis Maranhenses - 31 + 1 = 32 This is much smaller than the Pantanal. Probably the Lençóis Maranhenses would occupy 2 tiles on the map, maximum 3.

 

[Kimiimaro]

Danxia - 32+1=33 - What is the greatest wonder now, huh?
Erta Ale - 26
Guilin Mountains - 26
Iguaçu Falls - 23-3=20 - I said it several times - give some rivers the Nile treatment, and I'll agree with it's inclusion. Otherwise it would look quite weird in my opinion.
Kīlauea - 26
Lençóis Maranhenses - 32

 

[Guandao]

Danxia - (33-3)=30 Not famous enough, is it depicted in Chinese art? Are those rainbow mountains pictures real? Which Danxia are we talking about anyway?
Erta Ale - 26
Guilin Mountains - (26+1)=27 Subject of numerous ancient artwork by Chinese artists.
Iguaçu Falls - 20
Kīlauea - 26
Lençóis Maranhenses - 32

 

[Xandinho]

Danxia - 30 - 3 = 27 Very impressive, but I have to make choices
Erta Ale - 26 + 1 = 27 This pleases me more like a volcano than Kīlauea
Guilin Mountains - 27
Iguaçu Falls - 20
Kīlauea - 26
Lençóis Maranhenses - 32

 

[Kimiimaro]

Danxia - 27+1=28 - Colorful rocks
Erta Ale - 27
Guilin Mountains - 27
Iguaçu Falls - 20-3=17 - Not until some rivers will gain the Nile treatment.
Kīlauea - 26
Lençóis Maranhenses - 32

 

[Guandao]

Danxia - 28
Erta Ale - 27
Guilin Mountains - (27+1)=28 Quintessential Chinese mountain landscape
Iguaçu Falls - 17
Kīlauea - 26
Lençóis Maranhenses - (32-3)=29 Making sure they don't have that great a lead. It looks cool, but what can it give as a bonus? Science?

 

[Xandinho]

Danxia - 28 - 3 = 25 I'm making difficult choices.
Erta Ale - 27
Guilin Mountains - 28
Iguaçu Falls - 17
Kīlauea - 26
Lençóis Maranhenses - 29 + 1 = 30 There are many scientific researches there, maybe scientific bonuses are the most appropriate.

 

[Kimiimaro]

Danxia - 25+1=26 - It would look so great...
Erta Ale - 27
Guilin Mountains - 28
Iguaçu Falls - 17-3=14 - No Nile treatment - no Iguaçu Falls
Kīlauea - 26
Lençóis Maranhenses - 30

 

[Guandao]

Danxia - 26
Erta Ale - 27
Guilin Mountains - (28+1)=29 As before
Iguaçu Falls - 14
Kīlauea - (26-3)=23 Not too impressed with this volcano
Lençóis Maranhenses - 30

New Danxia - 26
Erta Ale - 27
Guilin Mountains - 26 (29 - 3) The game has lots of mountain wonders already, and while these are different from the existing ones, I don't think they're different enough to be a top priority.
Iguaçu Falls - 15 (14 +1) Waterfalls are an interesting and yet unseen wonder type, and this is a great one. And I think a river flowing into one end of a tile and out the other would look great. If rivers were a full tile wide, by contrast, the waterfall would have to be narrower than the rest of the river in order for the wonder to show any of the surrounding terrain.
Kīlauea - 23
Lençóis Maranhenses - 30

 

[Xandinho]

Danxia - 26
Erta Ale - 27 + 1 = 28 Attracts me more like a volcano than Kīlauea
Guilin Mountains - 26
Iguaçu Falls - 15
Kīlauea - 23 - 3 = 20 While I'm making difficult choices, it still appeals to me, but I have to pull something out.
Lençóis Maranhenses - 30

 

[Kimiimaro]

Danxia - 26+1=27 - Beautiful rainbow mountains.
Erta Ale - 28
Guilin Mountains - 26
Iguaçu Falls - 15-3=12 - The river that creates these falls is quite wide, so it would look weird if a small narrow river created such huge waterfalls as these, and these waterfalls created a small narrow river again. As I said, the Nile treatment, or nothing. Or at least Angel Falls.
Kīlauea - 20
Lençóis Maranhenses - 30

 

[Guandao]

Danxia - (27-3)=24 I'm still not sure which Danxia this is referring to. If it is this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhangye_National_Geopark, the colors seem much more muted than those internet photos.
Erta Ale - 28
Guilin Mountains - (26+1)=27 Has more history and culture to them than Danxia
Iguaçu Falls - 12
Kīlauea - 20
Lençóis Maranhenses - 30

 

[Amrunril]

Danxia - 24
Erta Ale - 28
Guilin Mountains - 27
Iguaçu Falls - 13 (12 + 1) For a single tile wonder (and I think that's appropriate, wonders as large as Crater Lake and Tsigny work as single tiles, and the entire Galapagos archipelago is only two), a river doesn't actually have to spread out that much, especially given that part of the tile will depict surrounding terrain instead of the wonder itself. And for what it's worth, the actual river in this case does become much narrower right after the falls, at least according to Google Maps. I also think, more generally, that Gifts of the Nile style rivers would be bad fit scale-wise for standard sized maps and that it would be a shame to miss out on the possibility of waterfall wonders as a result.
Kīlauea - 20
Lençóis Maranhenses - 27 (30-3) Distinctive and impressive, but not enough so to be ahead of the game's first active volcano or waterfall.

There's also Mount Danxia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_Danxia

It also has a certain rock formation similar to that found in Ko Samui, except much larger. It also has a corresponding rock formation representing the other gender.

Those rock formations would constitute radar evasion.

 

[Xandinho]

Danxia - 24
Erta Ale - 28
Guilin Mountains - 27 - 3 = 24 Everything on the list is impressive, but I have to take something away.
Iguaçu Falls - 13
Kīlauea - 20
Lençóis Maranhenses - 27 + 1 = 28 I already told my reasons before

 

[Kimiimaro]

Danxia - 24+1=25 - It doesn't matter whether it's so much colorful on most of these photos or not - the main thing is that it is colorful. It maybe doesn't have all the colours of rainbow like in those photos, but it has some nice colours. It looks great and I'm sure it would also look great in the game.
Erta Ale - 28
Guilin Mountains - 24
Iguaçu Falls - 13-3=10 - So the rivers are either too narrow or too wide. However, since I don't see any perfect solution for this, I have to downvote it. If a waterfall wonder is necessary, then Angel Falls would be much better choice.
Kīlauea - 20
Lençóis Maranhenses - 28

 

[Guandao]

Danxia - (25-3)=22 What kind of bonus would it give? The Chinese didn't seem to care much about this landscape until recently.
Erta Ale - 28
Guilin Mountains - (24+1)=25 I've given my reasons already
Iguaçu Falls - 10
Kīlauea - 20
Lençóis Maranhenses - 28
