Actually, no, I didn't get your PM until a few minutes ago. I saw the screenshot in the General turn info thread, and that is where I got the list that is in this poll. Unless I am totally whacked, the list I saw was this:
1. Ceremonial Burial
2. Currency
3. Pottery
4. Masonry
5. Warrior Code
Those were the choices that I offered in this poll (What Next?). I am not referring to the other poll (Research Goal) anymore.
edit--Let me eplain a little. The other poll (I thought) was for a research goal, which, in my mind, meant what short term research goal were we headed for. In that case, it seemed that we had a short term goal of reaching Monarchy so that we could get to Feudalism, so I was trying to devise a tech path to achieve that aim.
It seems to me that this poll is not about a research goal, but, exactly what tech we should research next, i.e. Ceremonial Burial, and so I did not include all the extraneous stuff, only the techs listed in the screenshot. I hope I'm not confusing you even further than I already have.
