I didn't see a bad "nation" Coffee's stuck out because I thought Einstein and Shakespeare are arguably tops in their field and they are surrounded by other impressive names.

Very good job...very interesting to look through it all.

Unless you subscribe to the theory that Shakespeares stuff was actually written by someone else..Interesting theory...

Noop · 05-29-2009, 08:46 PM

No more voters?

Coffee Warlord · 05-31-2009, 12:01 PM

Bump?

Nice, so if you combine DT's and my rosters we finish in second! I'll take it!

sorry Danny, the rest of your picks were very impressive and would definitely have been in my top 3 but considering what Hitler stood for, the things he did to his own people and the state he left his nation in at the end of his "reign" I can't get past that pick

Yeah, I would have changed that pick looking back, I went for the big name in the 20th century but really was only a good pick in the last history draft when it was an evil person category. Obviously if I was really building a nation he would be one of my last choices. To be fair though, quite a few of those ancient rulers or army commanders were quite cruel too.

1) Danny
2) Galaril
3) DaddyTorgo

I just can't deny how effectively, for his purposes, that Hitler lead his nation. Danny has a team full of the most famous of people, but they are also among the most effective at their positions.

Lets hope so otherwise his nation would have to watch the murders of Pope John Paul II and Ghandi inside the Colosseum as Hitler tries a coup d'etat.

And Im sorry Danny I wont make any more Hitler comments

Your nation would do very well in all areas except I have a bad feeling that your nation wouldnt be able to hold up when the big bullies come in and try to get rid of your peaceful nation.

DaddyTorgo · 06-01-2009, 12:19 AM

hannibal? themistocles? mordechai hod?

DaddyTorgo · 06-01-2009, 12:20 AM

would my nation have scored better if instead of hannibal i had General Giap of N. Vietnam for my army commander?

Izulde · 06-01-2009, 12:29 AM

I started off well in voting but appear to be sinking fast

Hannibal was a great pick.

Themistocles from what I remember was known more as a politician and a man with ideas that withstood the test of time.

And Hod Im not very familair with other than his accomplishments in the six day war.

Danny · 06-01-2009, 01:06 PM

Tie for 3rd! Sweet! I have so many people to thank. Oh wait, I only have three people to thank.

Thanks Noop, TigerCat and George!

Noop · 06-01-2009, 01:08 PM

I think the importance of Oil and the internet was lost on this crowd. Tsk. Tsk. Congrats Abe you peaceful bastard!

Danny · 06-01-2009, 02:29 PM

Yes congrats Abe!

Danny · 06-01-2009, 02:30 PM

I should look back at my history in these drafts, I think I have always finished 3rd-5th, always a bridesmaid, never a bride!

Danny · 06-01-2009, 02:34 PM

NVM, I finished 8th in the other historical draft, but did notch 3rd place in the TV family draft. So I will use mode as my measure of central tendency and say I finish around 3rd usually.

Galaril · 06-01-2009, 06:42 PM

Geez, six place only ahead of people who scored 0 and one with 3

That is it I am not shaking hands with any of you fuckers or going to the press conference

Coffee Warlord · 06-01-2009, 07:16 PM

Guess its The People's Republic of Coffee and Abeonia as the world's superpowers.

Launch the nukes!

Abe Sargent · 06-10-2009, 10:11 AM

I was gone on vacation and just checked and saw this.

Thanks everyone! I had a ton of fun with this, you were all great players!
