[Xandinho]

Blue Caves (Greece) - 21
Cueva de los Cristales - 20 - 3 = 17 Huuum, I had not noticed you. I'm sorry, it's a very beautiful place to enjoy, but caves are not poissible like natural wonders in civilization.

Iguaçu Falls - (21+1)=22 One of my top choices for a Waterfall NW. It made a great location in the fourth Indiana Jones movie, despite being in the wrong location.

Lake Baikal - 21
Lambert Glacier - 20
Lençóis Maranhenses - 21
Macocha Gorge - 18 (21 - 3) Compared to the other caves and the other canyons on these lists, this one seems underwhelming to me.
Mammoth Cave -13
Mariana Trench - 5
Salar de Uyuni - 20
Serengeti - 15 (14 + 1) The grassland wonder I wanted to be upvoting in the first round.

Lake Baikal - 21
Lambert Glacier - 20
Lençóis Maranhenses - 21
Macocha Gorge - 18+1=19 - This game needs an abyss wonder. Not the most wondrous, I agree, but at least it doesn't suffer from invisibility.
Mammoth Cave -13
Mariana Trench - 5-3=2 - It's invisible, and that's a huge problem. Who will give it the final hit?

Macocha Gorge - 16 (19-3) I think there are better choices for such a wonder
Mammoth Cave -13
Salar de Uyuni - 21 (20+1) Unbelievable place. Also easy to do on the map. The question is what does it do?
Serengeti - 15
Underwater Waterfall (Mauritius) - 22
Wadden Sea - 8
White Desert (Egypt) - 21

@Guandao I down voted Delicate Arch and will do it again. While it is a nice sight (Arches National Park is one of the best in the US imho), it would look rather stupid on the map ending up way too big. I also think more US natural wonders aren't a pressing need and if we get more, Grand Canyon may be the better first choice.
@Xandinho Cueva de los Cristales is no place to enjoy. a) it's once again flooded and cannot be accessed b) for the years it was accessible, it was only possible wearing ice cooled clothing and even then just for 10 minutes without throwing your life away due to the intense heat

The Cueva de los Cristales could have been explored with heat-resistant machinery as well.

The Cueva de los Cristales could have been explored with heat-resistant machinery as well.

I'm not sure why they didn't do that. Maybe funding? It remained largely unexplored.

Macocha Gorge - 16+1=17 - Macocha is maybe not the most famous abyss. It probably isn't even the most wondrous. But this game needs some abyss wonder, and since it's the only abyss on this list, I have to protect it. Also, it's from the Czech Republic, my homeland. I still think that Bohemia deserves to be presented more than with Prague city state and two ot three great people.
Mammoth Cave -13

[Amrunril]

Blue Caves (Greece) - 21
Cueva de los Cristales 13 (16 - 3) Mammoth Cave and Blue Caves (and Carlsbad, for that matter) all have relatively distinctive openings that could be easily portrayed on the map. In contrast, it's really hard to imagine how this one could be portrayed.
Danxia - 21
Delicate Arch 18
Erta Ale - 21

Lambert Glacier - 20
Lençóis Maranhenses - 21 + 1 = 22 Looks like a desert. But it is thousands of hectares of dunes and freshwater lagoons, some shelter lives. A place too interesting for me.
Macocha Gorge - 18
Mammoth Cave -13
Salar de Uyuni - 21
Serengeti - 16 - 3 = 13 It would not be impressive on the map, in my opinion.
Underwater Waterfall (Mauritius) - 22
White Desert (Egypt) - 21

So few people participating in this elimination game, this is sad.

 

[God of Kings]

@Xandinho I think it's because so many people were burned out from having a glut of elimination games at once.

Lake Baikal - 21
