Or you could watch the streams but also stay globally spoiled to read the lurker thread.

To make the game less boring, take America with the first pick.

To make the game less boring, we should take a civ that is perhaps the best CIV definition of boring?

Shaka of the Zulu is interesting. Someone of Mongols is interesting too.

Thanks Darrell, that's good advice, but we won't be taking it this time.

Well, Joao is interesting. If you fuck it up it's incredibly difficult to pull the game back because there are no long term advantages. Shaka/Zulu is pretty much the same as Joao just slower, more forgiving and generally less challenging because of the lack of speed.
