New color for the BOTM Religious Shield?

Based on the discussion here: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showpost.php?p=6644469&postcount=39

(Be careful what you wish for!)

Does the community want a BOTM religious shield color (or colour) that is distinct from any other shield, or to keep it purple (matching the diplo shield) as it is now?

If you like an alternative color, specify in a post here and we can have a run-off election among the leading contenders!

I am partial to orange!

(So far it's a landslide!)

I am happy and thanks!

When you said you needed to know if anyone else cared, I did not think that you literally meant anyONE else ... and that Niklas' opinion would be sufficient. So the poll cross-posted with your change, making it an inadvertant (rather than deliberate)

Feel free to close or remove this if you wish ...

Ah! The beautiful precision of the English language clearly eluded you

Let's leave it, and see if anyONE else has any opinions on the matter. This is a better place for such discussions than a results thread.

Purple is traditionally a religious color (at least in some religions), but I kind of like the early religious victory being an orange too--mostly sweet, but still slightly acidic. Some might prefer a lemon.

It's cuz you guys still speak English 1.0 over there, and we've moved on to 2.0, which is partially incompatible

We have really everything in common with America nowadays except, of course, language - Oscar Wilde

p.s. dV you forgot to the the "Who gives a flying - - - - - ?" choice to the poll

I guess that's where Microsoft got the idea of Embrace and Extend?

LOL. No, that suggests the same thing over here (well, at least to me). Maybe that's a gender. not hemispherical, interpretation issue???

What shade of orange? There are at least 27 different shades to choose from. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Shades_of_orange

My preference would be "international orange" since we have players from all over the world.

Vermilion would be the more appropriate orange shade for a civ shield.

Maybe we should start a new poll for the choices of shades.
