IIRC no, but you can change the ones for the default civs

You'd have to find the file they are kept in, and then edit it like any other text file

Wouldn't they be in a binary file, though?

Which means that you might need a hex editor to accomplish this. Also, it means that your new announcements cannot be longer (but can be shorter) than the originals unless you use some additional trickery. Make sure to put a 0x00 after the end of your new announcement, as well, to mark the end of the string.

The trick is to only make predictions semi-seriously.  That way, I don't have a 98% failure rate. I have a 98% sarcasm rate.
