Plus all participants can add one "fav. settlement", even when it was more a sh*thole than a city (just take a look at the last roman city in the list, that was a more or less unimportant site, but it's only a few km from my home (Graz), so I dared to add it.
I won't add Leptis because we already have it in the Phoenician list. Volubilis will be added though.
Thanks for the input.
