What would a Civilization game wonder do?

The Statue of Civ

The great Wonder of Civilization would need the Internet.

It would indeed provide happiness

There would be definite science benefits

And a cost in productivity.

This is a great idea... definitly for a upcominng Mod

I would hope that we would have an appropriate Statue to bless those who have the adventure of heart to take the journey into such a realm of the mind.

I propose the mighty warrior poet Asterix...

I love Uderzo and Goscinny, but why Asterix to represent the Great Wonder of Civ?
Build a Sid Meier statue!

If its the 3rd build of it, the internet shouldnt be required untill you build a post-requisite add-on

After Civ VIII I predict it will all go downhill anyway. :sour grapes:

"Tell me again why that is bad?"

That is bad because I have friends (believe it or not) here on Poly and when a site goes south friends lose touch. Granted I'd maybe make new ones on Civ Fanatics, but the friendships I have in the OT go pretty far back. One of the reasons the petty ******** tyrant in the OT pisses me off. That said, I know I have to make the jump to Civ Fanatics and have an all new login over there all ready to go. I'm 'Noitazilivic' on those boards now. Haven't posted yet...

No, rather the Sarcophagus of Lancer.

When it is constructed, young maidens would awaken from decades of hypnotic trances, and make themselves sexually available to the rest of us meaning more happiness.

Mourning rioters would ramage through the streets of Mingapulco, buring that city to the ground, releasing hoards of political prisoners. Still more happiness + increased production...at least until the escaping political prisoners run into the young maidens mentioned above.

Sales of manly, masculine blue tutus would crash, meaning either decreasing treasuries, or ... ulp ... higher taxes.

It would make true addicts
