Deity is nothing more than an equalizer for lesser players. The incredible amount of restrictions it puts on everything bogs the game down to a ridiculously slow pace.

ROTFLMAO... why don't you just come out and say that Deity doesn't fit your predetermined strategy of success. (Oh, and I'm not disputing that you are probably the best civ player around when I say that...) You claim it gives you more options of strategies, but what it really does is allow you to ICS... something that is more difficult at Deity. And I have no problem with that, but don't even attempt to call it an equalizer for lesser players as if those that play at deity are all inferior
Deity forces you to build a civ instead of just cranking out settlers and horses until you are blue in the face.
Now that's boring
