Match 1: Alcibiades v. Secretariat

I know relatively little about Alcibiades. However, I do know that he probably couldn't take a kick by a racehorse to the face.

So we're going with that.

ALCIBIADES 0
SECRETARIAT 10

Match 2: Christopher Columbus v. Ira Mertes

Ira Mertes and the esteemed Genoese megalomaniac faced off from opposite sides of the Arena. They stared at each other with a hard look in their eyes.

Imban reached into his pocket and quickly withdrew a GBA, so as to school the fifteenth-century explorer in his favorite mecha-piloting sim.

Columbus, on the other hand, piloted a galleon into Mertes.

IRA MERTES 2
CHRISTOPHER COLUMBUS 8

Match 4: Josef Stalin v. WeMMu

As soon as the match began, WeMMu busted a rap which was all too likely sick and/or fat, but being in Finnish, we couldn't tell.

Then Stalin purged him in the face.

WEMMU 1
JOSEF STALIN 9

I would contest the first round. Just spend five minutes googling Alcibiades and realize the error of your ways. Secretariat wouldn't get within ten feet of Alcibiades before he had him skewered on his spear. A horse versus a Greek hoplite general? Give me a break.

Horses are huge. And fast.

Even if Secretariat got skewered, it wouldn't stop him long enough to prevent anything he was aimed at from being pounded into slime.

Secretariat -- horse by trade, pimp by nature.

Not sure about that- horses are huge and fast, but if the Hoplite general is proficient with a spear (a rhetorical boolean at best), then Secretariat would be unilateraly screwed by skewering in the face, whereas Alcibiades would only suffer a broken ribcage. Even if Secretariat were to win, it most certainly wouldn't be 10-0. Remember- horses are fast, but rarely have a charging tactic that moves their heads any- they're incredibly easy targets.

If Alcibiades is armed, we have to permit Secretariat to wear some sort of armor on his head. This would likely make the difference between skewering and trampling.

How's this going to sort out the worst man ever? You're going to let them at each other one-on-one? Mortal Combat?

Just a suggestion. Wouldn't it make more sense to let their deeds and accomplishments decide the outcome? I thought that was what all this was about.

Otherwise just throw in Spiderman. He'll kick the ass of everyone because he can shoot webs! Therefore, he is undoubtedly the worst man ever.

You know, you could actually make this competition interesting from a historical view. Or then you could make it Mortal Combat. I cry already.

These duels do actually take place in a BoE arena cell, right? If so, what would the stats be like?

No, these match-ups are not in any real "arena." I'm not sure how much "time" Custer is really spending on these duels, but he is a bigger history fan than I ever will be.

But I agree with Kreshweed about letting the contestants' deeds determining their badass merit. Right now, this seems a little too arbitrary to warrant the effort of making that crazy list, which I think is long.

All I know is comparing an admittedly fantastic Triple Crown winner with the badass hoplite general who played the Athenians off the Spartans off the Athenians off the Persians is no contest - it's Alcibiades. Ignorance of history is a poor excuse. Also, thoroughbreds are not warhorses - they aren't as large as many other breeds and have to be pampered to a high degree.

I agree. How could a group such as this decide the outcome of:
Nixon v. Reagan,
Jackson v. R. Kelly,
The Notorious B.I.G. v. Justin Timberlake,
unless they are grouped in pools of 8 or so, and these pools all share similar characteristics. For example:
Alorael, Arancaytar and Wiseman would all be in one group,
Siberia, Greenpeace and Corporate Executives would be in another group,
and Bush, Clinton and Lincoln in another,
so unfair matchups (such as Siberia v. Wiseman) do not occur.
I think more positive response would be generated with a little organization. Or is that too much to ask for in this forum?

Alec hates me and has wanted my head on a pike since 1986, so he put me up against an entire frigid land full of wolverines and burly Russian men.
