    Hey dude this is getting annoying! Stop doing all these seperate polls. You fill up the first page of this fourm with all this poll crap. Now stop!
    However, it is difficult to believe that 2 times 2 does not equal 4; does that make it true? On the other hand, is it really so difficult simply to accept everything that one has been brought up on and that has gradually struck deep roots – what is considered truth in the circle of moreover, really comforts and elevates man? Is that more difficult than to strike new paths, fighting the habitual, experiencing the insecurity of independence and the frequent wavering of one’s feelings and even one’s conscience, proceeding often without any consolation, but ever with the eternal goal of the true, the beautiful, and the good? - F.N.

      I voted the last choice, not because the poll is stupid, just because I don't remember anything about Babylonian rulers, so I pass on this

          The second option would be the most satisfying for me.. we need a littl bit of change from Civ 2.

                Gosh! You don't have to get snippy about it! Fine! I won't do any more leader polls, ok? But I have been getting mixed signals about all these!

                As for you, Techwins, I'm sooo sorry if I blocked all the "crap" that YOU like to look at with "crap" that I like to look at! But come on! There's no real new info on CivIII, so I'm trying to think of SOMETHING interesting. No one really cares just how many feathers will be in the headress of the Iroquois unique unit, or if Chairman Mao's mole is .0003 millimeters off! And then there are COMPLETELY random things on these threads! Like whether the Great Wall can be seen from space! I think everyone's just getting bored because there's nothing new to talk about. No one has anything really interesting to say, but there's no need to be rude!

                  Incidentally, I think it's interesting that 75% of people that voted on the poll actually chose one of the leader selections, while only 25% voted for the "stupid poll" option. It seems the dissatisfied quarter is simply "more vocal" than the other three quarters.

                    That's possible, but if it were true, more people probably would have posted reasons for their choices in your thread. People can be annoyed and still vote.

                        I remember saying this in your last poll (Persia). It's amazing how many people agree with me. I do recommend you stop before you make too many people mad. If you really want to learn how to spam, look up Alexander's Horse (a true pro ). These amateurish spam-polls are getting old.

                          especially when you know that in Babylonian it is something like this: NBCHDNZZR

                          => let's add Nbchdnzzr as name

                            Nebuchadnezzar was the name of the hovercraft in The Matrix.

                            Great movie, if you haven't seen it.

                              I voted for good ol' Hammurabi. He's been the Babylonian leader for 9 years, and he should stay there. Hey, there even is a music track on the CIV 2 disk named after him1
