Chrysler Building 23
Gyeongbokgung Palace 17
Karnak Temples 28
Palais des Papes 19 + 1 = 20 Amazing building that would be very interesting in the game.
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
St. Mark's Basilica 3 - 3 = 0 Eliminated. Bye, wait in line.
Tomb of Antiochus I 27
 
Chrysler Building 23 + 1 = 24 No late game wonders, and this is a great one.
Gyeongbokgung Palace 17 - 3 = 14 Least impressive on the list. I have to downvote something.

Karnak Temples 28
Palais des Papes 20
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I 27
 
Chrysler Building 21 (24-3) never heard about it
Gyeongbokgung Palace 14
Karnak Temples 29 (28+1) incredible place
Palais des Papes 20
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I 27
 
Chrysler Building 21+1=22 There's nothing wrong with throwing in a wonder that not everyone has heard about before. I've never heard of Apadana before the Macedon and Persia dlc and I think it's a neat addition to the game.
Gyeongbokgung Palace 14-3=11 Out of all that is left on this list , this one is the least impressive.
Karnak Temples 29
Palais des Papes 20
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I 27
 
Chrysler Building 22
Gyeongbokgung Palace (11-3)=8 Forbidden City is already in the game. There are better choices for a Korean wonder.
Karnak Temples 29
Palais des Papes 20
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I (27+1)=28 One of my favorites left in this list.
 
Chrysler Building 22-3=19 I'm sorry it is a wonderful building but how wonders are shown on the map it would look very weird to have a skyscraper as large as an entire city
Gyeongbokgung Palace 8
Karnak Temples 29+1=30 i love Egypt
Palais des Papes 20
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I 28
As a last defense for st. marks basilica the city of Alexandria for now has two wonders in the game so the fact that the arsenal was in the game wasn't a big arguments against its addition to the game but hey I'm happy it stayed for this long
 
Chrysler Building 16 (19-3) I want it, but I want others more. Choices are getting tough.
Gyeongbokgung Palace 8
Karnak Temples 30
Palais des Papes 20
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I 29 (28+1) yay, my favorite 3 are the top three right now!

Yes, Rio de Janeiro also has two wonders in the game (Cristo Redentor and Estádio do Maracanã). Well, I can not speak for the developers' decisions, but speaking of the specific case of Alexandria, the Great Library and the Great Lighthouse have been present since the first civilization editions, so they have already become real staples in the base game, players are already waiting these wonders be in the base game as each edition is announced. And also, elimination games do not truly represent people's wishes (see Machu Picchu in first place in my poll of wonders and in 10th place in the 'returning wonders' elimination game), in these games, people use arguments to take out or keep something on the list compared to the remaining names, is simply a priority setting, and the priorities for each are not always the same. I have put the St. Mark's Basilica below in my priority list compared to the other 6 names of the List, it does not mean that I do not want it in the game, it just means that St. Mark's Basilica is a lower priority than the other six for me, and I would not have put it in game before even than other wonders fallen before like Cliff Palace, Teatro Amazonas and Cairo Cidadel, but this is just personal priorities. I certainly would have chosen this Basilica instead of the Venetian Arsenal if I had to choose.
 
Chrysler Building 17 (16 + 1) -- We need more modern era wonders, and it wouldn't look any stranger than Broadway (and considerably more attractive, IMO).
Gyeongbokgung Palace 8
Karnak Temples 30
Palais des Papes 20
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I 26 (29 - 3) -- We're to the point where choices must be made, and I find this less appealing than the other options here.
 
Chrysler Building 17 + 1 = 18 More modern era wonders, and the "building the size of a city and twice as tall" didn't seem to come into conflict with the Mahadobi Temple in the base game.
Gyeongbokgung Palace 8 - 3 = 5 Not that great. Better choices for Korea.

Karnak Temples 30
Palais des Papes 20
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I 26
 
Chrysler Building 18
Gyeongbokgung Palace 5
Karnak Temples 30
Palais des Papes 20 + 1 = 21 This is my second favorite wonder on the list, I really want this in the game.
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I 26 - 3 = 23 I want all these wonders in the game, but I have to take out one, and this is the one that less interest me.
 
Chrysler Building 18
Gyeongbokgung Palace 5-3=2 - I feel like this is the weakest choice now. Who will give it the final strike?
Karnak Temples 30
Palais des Papes 21
Santa Maria del Fiore 35+1=36 - The second best choice for me.
Tomb of Antiochus I 23
 
Chrysler Building 18
Gyeongbokgung Palace 2 - 3 = ELIMINATED Forbidden City is better, which is already in-game
Karnak Temples 30
Palais des Papes 21
Santa Maria del Fiore 36 + 1 = 37 Why don't earlier Civ games have this wonder buildable? Too many missed opportunities
Tomb of Antiochus I 23
 
Chrysler Building 18
Karnak Temples 31 (30+1) I am doing it exciting
Palais des Papes 21
Santa Maria del Fiore 34 (37-3) Is this so important?
Tomb of Antiochus I 23
 
Chrysler Building 18
Karnak Temples 31
Palais des Papes (21-3)=18 Not a big fan for some reason. I've been to Avignon before and saw this building. Never went inside since our guide said it wasn't worth seeing the inside. Also, would the Catholic Church/Vatican City like this being in the game?
Santa Maria del Fiore 34
Tomb of Antiochus I (23+1)=24 It might not add much to the game, but I like those seated god statues.
 
Chrysler Building 18-3 it's the least appealing of the list I'm sorry @Zaarin
Karnak Temples 31
Palais des Papes 18
Santa Maria del Fiore 34+1=35 yes it's pretty important
Tomb of Antiochus I 24
 
Also, would the Catholic Church/Vatican City like this being in the game?
Is there some reason we should care? ;) I mean, the Babylonian Captivity was a pretty embarrassing period for the papacy, but...it did happen. Civ6 has been a little excessively revisionist as it is without further whitewashing history because the Vatican doesn't like it. I mean, the chief alternative is Krak des Chevaliers, and the modern Church has tried to distance itself from the Crusades, too, so...

I wasn't being serious about that :D
I think Krak des Chevaliers would make a great castle wonder as well.
 
Chrysler Building 16 (15 + 1) -- The game badly needs more late game wonders.
Karnak Temples 31
Palais des Papes 18
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I 21 (24 - 3) -- Still the least interesting of the remaining wonders.
 
Chrysler Building 16+1=17 I find this one to be the best looking of the remaining except maybe Santa Maria del Fiore.
Karnak Temples 31
Palais des Papes 18-3=15 I find the other remaining options to be better.
Santa Maria del Fiore 35
Tomb of Antiochus I 21
