What on earth is folks' problem with Glantri City? It's the only canal city ruled by aristocratic mages on the list! There's several cities on there that are so generic, you couldn't tell what setting they were from if you whited-out the name in the sourcebook.

I voted against Glantri because it is the one city that I knew NOTHING about - having never come even 10' pole-close to touching Mystara material and still having no desire to.

Interestingly, (for me anyway) I mentioned earlier the City State of the Invincible Overlord. Back in the day this was the ONLY city map that we had so for a good 15 years (at least until I began using the Realms) it did duty as the map for EVERY major city in every campaign that did not have a map of its own which was about 95% of them. I took one copy of it once and colored the major streets in blue to turn it into a... canal city ruled by aristocratic clerics that was the primary city in a homebrew campaign I ran for a while.

As for other cities, I've had a number of others pointed out, and even remembered some I'd forgotten but would/should have included initially (Blackmoor, as you point out, was a key one). However, the poll had already started, so I don't see any reason to drag things out by adding more in after the fact. If anyone is interested in seeing more cities make the cut, we can either do another one, or they can start a competing poll, and we can have the winners of the two duke it out at the end. :)
When this one is over just do a "City Survivor - The Wildcard slot" or something that covers all the ones you forgot. Then take the winners of both and run the finals.
 



I voted Barovia. Never liked Ravenloft. Keep your psuedo-Victorian horror out of my psuedo-Medieval fantasy, please.
 

I'm considering starting a Survivor Survivor thread, listing all the Survivor threads to see which one is most popular...
 


I let the dice gods choose for me... and they disliked Waterdeep. Unfortunately, every other god in the pantheon hates kenders so they took out their rage on Palanthus..
