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.

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.

Not only that, I don't see why people are upset over this. If you don't like a poll or a particular thread then just ignore it or scroll past it. Is it really that hard to do?

Either way, a very significant number of people have voted for the "stupid poll" option.
Finally, I didn't say you couldn't post polls, but you should tone it down. A new poll every day about a civ that's (probably) not in the game gets old.

You're exagerrating again, Sabre2th. First of all, I wouldn't call nine people a "significant number" on a forum of thousands.
And I've done 4 leader polls, Germany, Russia, Persia, and Babylon. You're right, of course! Germany and Russia won't be in the game!  As for Persia and Babylon, I think it likely that one or the other or both will be in. We'll have to see. And it's true, the Babylon poll came out shortly after the Persia poll, but if that's enough to cause nine people to have conniptions, well, that's just sad.

9 is significant, considering the number of people that actually voted. The point is that it has bothered some people. Don't twist my words.

For those of you who like the leader polls-
I'm not even sure which other civs I could do. The options (at least from my perspective) are any potential civs (that means any real evidence backing them at all) that we haven't already seen the leader of. Germany, Russia, Persia and Babylon have already been done. That leaves the Aztecs, Spanish, Romans, Zulus, and for the die-hards, the Mongols??? available.
The Aztecs are very limited, since we don't have that much of their history (I think Montezuma is a shoe-in anyway).
The Spanish have plenty of leaders to chose from, but most of them weren't significant enough to be considered. I would suggest Philip II, Ferdinand & Isabella, Rodrigo "El Cid" Diaz de Bivar (King of Valencia), Charles I (V of the Holy Roman Empire), or of course, Dictator Franco.
The Romans have so many Caesars available for choice it's almost limitless. However, I feel the most likely ones are Julius and Augustus, though any of the Pax Romana Caesars are options, and let's not forget Marcus Aurelius.
The Zulus have had lots of chiefs, but I think the options are limited to Shaka Zulu, Shakala (CivII's invented female, at least I haven't seen here in any history I've read), and Cetewayo, the chief during the Zulu Wars with Great Britain.
As for the Mongols, the prime options would be Genghis Khan, Ogedei Khan, Kublai Khan, and Batu Khan. Who's Empress Bortei, anyway? Is she real?
What are your thoughts on this?
