    I've chosen the banana option because I didn't saw the "I'm not a beta tester" option too late.

    Did I expand on my reasons for my choise enough for now?

        You forgot the "I never beat the CIV AI. It is too good" option...
        You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence.

            Any beta tester who hasn't beaten the AI must of course face their humiliation by explaining in writing the reasons for their inadequacy.

            But I'm sure no Apolytonian beta would have this problem...

                  You win a banana.

                  Which is more than can be said for the beta testers...

                  C'mon guys, it'd be great to know how you are playing Civ...

                    What if they stop before they finish (win)?

                      Next time, test it before you put it on the market!!!

                        Whats the point of this, to see if any victory condition is overpowered?

                          Please pardon my ignorance. What's a "Religious" victory? Do you convert everyone in the world to your religion, or what?

                            Don't think there is a religious victory.

                              The point of it is that the only people who have played the game are the beta testers, and with all the changes that civ4 has it would be interesting to know if they are using all possible winning methods, and how they are using the military.

                              From what I have seen Civ4 seems to favour a defensive/builder approach more than civ3, it would be interesting to see if that is reflected in how the testers are having success or not in MP and SP games.

                              That is the general idea. Obviously I screwed up the poll, so shoot me. Some of you people are far too serious for you own good, this is a game dammit, not work...

                              Do as you please, but it may be more positive to encourage elicitation from the testers instead of spamming what is not a completely ridiculous poll, IMHO.
