I think it would be in our benefit for everyone to list the wonders in order of preference:
Already built:
Stonehenge: Sarantium
Oracle: Unknown
Left:
Colossus
Great Lighthouse
Great Library
Hanging Gardens
Parthenon
Pyramids
Chichen Itza
There is some anecdotal evidence someone has a resource and is building another wonder as well. We have been #1 in production, and judging by the average had a decent lead on #2, but suddenly find ourselve #2 and down 9 hammers. I'ld have to check the saves to see when that happened, but it was sudden and within the last 6 turns. The only 2 things that could account for that big of a jump is chops being counted in the numbers (I don't think they are and would expect us down much more than 9) or someone has a resource and is building a wonder.
Parthenon and Pyramids are the best logical candidates for that, though there is an outside chance someone already has Lit and is doing the GL as well.
For us, I personall rank wonders:
Pyramids
Great Library
Hanging Gardens.
First two should be self explainatory
The gardens since we will not be expanding and can't always count on trades to get health. That + health could come in handy down the road, and the extra pop in all cities is just gravy. Can be used to coordinate nationwide poprushes at the very least.
