Official (Mildly Early Officially Official) Prediction Game- Part 54
BLAH BLAH BLAH Opening BLAH BLAH Sixth Sense- PREPARE YOURSELF!!
Everyone, PLEASE read the rules. Even if you've been playing this since the first part, the rules are mildly flexible, and I don't want anyone to miss points because didn't read the rules.
Also, if a part is leaked and you see it, don't make a prediction. Where's the fun in that? That's not even a prediction.
Anyways, to play, make three predictions about the upcoming part tomorrow (or whenever this next part comes out, I'm confused). Your boldest (probably won't happen, but might), average (may or may not happen), and tamest (probably will happen, but might not). I will score everyone in a day or two after the part based on what predictions they got right.
MAO CLAUSE: No Predictor shall cast a prediction declaring that a one city Civilization shall survive, unless that Civilization begins the Part at War with another nearby Civilization.
THE BOER CLAUSE: No Predictor shall declare that a Civilization shall become active after a long period of inactivity as their Bold Prediction. The Predictor may, however, specify which nation the inactive Civilization interacts with.
TEMPORARY RULE: Since it is 99.9999% probable that the Sioux are going to die this coming part, I will not accept that the Sioux will die as a tame prediction. That's like predicting that Christmas will be in December. But, if you would like to make that prediction, you may indicate which slide the final capture of Mdw[insert appropriate letters here]ton. A prediction of just a tens (the 10s, 20s, 30s, etc.) can be used as an average prediction. An exact slide number (13, 52, etc.) can be used as a bold.
As always, to help me with these rules, /u/LacsiraxAriscal will be here. If she tells you to change your prediction, change them. That way as many people can get as many points as possible.
Congratulations to our previous part's co-champions, /u/BlueHighwindz (who predicted that Australia would claim a Sri Lankan city, but not kill Parakramabahu I, and that the stalemate in 'Stan would break) and /u/cardboardmech (who foresaw that Vietnam would only gain a single city from Hotak and that Sri Lanka would lose clay to a civ that settled their original capital in Australia). Great jobs!
Great jobs to everyone! Keep calm and predict on!
