Cothon of Carthage 23-3=20 - I'd like to see Carthage in game. I know that Cothon of Carthage was great thing. But I don't want to see it as a wonder. I'd rather see Cothons as a unique district for Carthaginian Civ.

St. Mark's Basilica 19+1=20 - @Zaarin , I agree that Hagia Sophia is better than St. Mark's Basilica. But I wouldn't put Dome of the Rock above it. I would put it on the same level. And about Damascus mosque, I disagree. From all those four things, I find it least wondrous. St. Mark's Basilica is one of the most known churches in the whole world. Also, it has five domes. There is never enough of domes :p

Caral Pyramids 10 - 3 = 7 I'm sorry Guandao, but I can not see how these pyramids can be wonders. There is very little information about them, I could not find any of them that stands out in size, beauty or importance. Even though I like archeology and ancient civilizations, I do not think this is a better option than most of the names on the list. However, I would love it if Caral were included as a religious city-state. I agree that we need Andean wonders, but this does not seem to be a good option for me.

Palais des Papes 21 + 1 = 22 A building of noteworthy importance. One of the most important buildings of medieval gothic architecture, playing an important religious role at the time, including 6 papal conclaves. Religious wonders are never enough for me, bring me more of them.

Caral Pyramids 7+1=8 Just the fact that these structures were built by a practically non-agricultural society amazes me, and is worthy in my eyes of being represented in the game. Tiwanaku is better off as a religious city-state.

Spring Temple Buddha 8 - 3 = 5 Certainly I very much want a Buddha statue in the game, but I would choose an oldest.

Coney Island 13 + 1 = 14. Disneyland is copyright and so is Barnum & Bailey circus. Coney island is large, colorful, and would come mid-Industrial.

Coney Island 14+15 Coney island has a lot of history to it and it probably is the best way to depict an amusement park wonder without going into any legal trouble.

The Caral Pyramids look nothing like the Great Pyramids of Giza. We will probably have at least three Greek style temple wonders anyways....

Coney Island 12 (15 - 3) -- Yes, Coney Island probably is the best way of depicting an amusement park wonder, but the real question is do we need an amusement park wonder?
Cothon of Carthage 21
Gyeongbokgung Palace 23
Karnak Temples 21 (20 + 1) -- We could use more wonders from Ancient Egypt, and while less famous than Abu Simbel I think Karnak is more worth including.

Coney Island 13 I have nothing against an amusement park like wonder, and I also think this one would be beautiful and distinctive on the map. But if we are looking for a mid-game entertainment wonder, why not the Plaza de toros de la Real Maestranza de Caballería de Sevilla? This would come in the Industrial/Renaissance era, and I've always wanted to see a Bullring as a wonder, It would be incredible for me.
Cothon of Carthage 21
Gyeongbokgung Palace 23 + 1 = 24 I agree with those who say we need Korean wonders in the game. I know this palace is very famous, but I do not know if it is the most impressive Korean structure. But while this is the only one on the list, I will vote for it.
