Writing FizzBuzz

Question

Reading the coding horror, I just came across the FizzBuzz another time.

The original post is here: Coding Horror: Why Can\'t Programmers.. Program?

You want probably make it configurable, but the question is what should be made configurable - we don't know that. Maybe we should make configurable all the cycle (FizzBuzz has the cycle). Here is very small and fun version with configurable cycle:

string[] fizzBuzzCycle = 
    "FizzBuzz,{0},{0},Fizz,{0},Buzz,Fizz,{0},{0},Fizz,Buzz,{0},Fizz,{0},{0}"
    .Split(',');

for (int i = 1; i <= 100; i++)
    Console.WriteLine(fizzBuzzCycle[i%fizzBuzzCycle.Length], i);

So if the strings or whole cycle should be changed it is easy to change. But you just don't know what to make configurable. Maybe condition will change: "for prime numbers print Pizz" and for this modification the solution by @ThomasLevesque is better, because it is easier to change.
