It's cool. But I could take it or leave it.

You think I don't play Civ for fun? That's the only reason I play it! (And anyone who plays it for any other reason needs their head read!) It's because I don't want to spoil the fun that I don't waste time poring over dry-as-dust statistics!

(Er... just stirring a little, you know? )

Well then, as long as we are talking about spoiling fun... Don't spoil it for the rest of us! Since it is not necessary to even open the window once, just don't do it if you don't like it! We like it, so leave it in for us!

If Firaxis doesn't put it in, it'll be all your fault Ikuul

Definately.

Yes keep it, but include all civs rankings not just your own.

Not all civs only civs you have an embassy whit (or whatever other way of spying there might be).

Well, I'll be flattered if they take me that seriously (against all your opposition)!

[My Wife Hates CIV]

Well keep it, but...

Base the results only on other civs that you currently have an embassy with. Another reason to establish one.

It is allways nice when people agree whit me

[Father Beast]

Keep It!

I enjoy looking at the demographics screen, and for throne room lovers, it's a good way to gauge the next upgrade.
but then again, I listen to my high council, too...

I know there's a bunch of hardcores out there who don't look at the throne room, listen to the highcouncil or check their advisors. The never watch the wonder movies or spend time looking at their spaceship.
But I do. I think it's fun.
Don't like the heralds, though.

I think this is one of the most original features in Civilisation
but I think a message window should pop up when your ranking changes
in one of the demographic statistics, to show when you've become most
productive for example.
Also why not have more stats in the demog. screen, like

Biggest metropolises -for having lots of large cities
Best infrastructure- for having good city improvements-banks,supermarkets,library/schools etc and road networks
Most popular Tourist destination-tourist industries are a big reveune earner
Best Movie Produced(well maybe not, but it would be fun)

I also think some kind of historical RECORDER is vital, to show the history
of your game at the end (game over).. as a text file maybe like civ1 had- I seem to remember.
