What about a bunch of obelisks, and then:



followed by the text "We are in denial".

Or we can try this:

"Team RB picks Egypt"

I'm still not convinced on Egypt. The UB is blank except for the narrow case of early religion and shrine. The UU is good but limited, as we've said, spears stop it cold. I'm always the inveterate builder, but I'd look to something with a UB for long term effect, such as Zulu or Mali or England. I'm not nearly as convinced as everyone else that starting techs are such a big discriminator, but then what do I know cause I just play against AIs.

We're holding things up now...I'd say just post Bob's picture. Offensive or not its hilarious.

Perhaps post out pick along with:

Walk Like An Egyptian

Or:

King Tut

Edit: Fixed Link

Yeah, post that and be done with it.

With ya' buddy, but I think we've all made our cases. With most of the folks on this team we all understand what Egypt, Mali, Zulu, Ottomans, or any of the solid picks bring to the table. It's just that case that ~2:1 of the team prefers the starting tech, barb fighting, and city attacking power of Egypt over what the other choices bring to the table.

Posted. Chose to use DaveV's neutral but pretty image and the video link (seems you can't embed them at CFC, or I haven't figured out how).

Civplayers picked Azteks. I think that was a smart move, better than Sumeria.
