Nicolae Ceaușescu

Nominating Mata Hari
20 more left I believe
der Michael Schumacher
Vlad III Tepes
Nominating Constantine the Great
I think Michael Schumacher and Jane Goodall raise an interesting question. Michael Schumacher arguably was at the height of his career during his late Ferrari years, while Jane's main career took place between the late 50s and 70s. It was deemed last year that a character should be best known for the things they did prior to the last 25 years. A bit of an open ended question I suppose for the thread.

Nominating Terry "Hulk Hogan" Bolleahttps://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/57/Hulk_Hogan%2C_circa_1985.jpg
Hey op instead of a straight 128 man single elimination bracket you should do 32 groups of 4, each guy in a group faces the other 3 once, top 2 advance to a 64 team bracket. That way you don't get something like Hitler vs Jesus in the first round knocking one out too early.
>>18043871I suppose Michael the formula driver extends far enough in the 90s and Jane has a recency bias.>>18043886I assure you 3 ways at the very least will crop up. The vote count will guarantee ties. I am counting up the nominees to make sure
>>18043865Architectbros...
Well looks like we need 1 more
>>18043865Well since some interpretations assume that it's some kind of fertility goddess. I suppose...

Not sure whether or not to vote Stephen the Great of Moldavia or Vlad the Impaler.
>/his/ thread that isn't an historical photography dump hits image limitWell that's rare
>>18043995Vlad's already in
>>18043995Give me an image of Stephen you like if you want him in.
>>18043999Ah ok, Vlach rep in then i think I'm set lmao.
>>18044001The thread's at image limit brainiac. Just mock up the bracket before we all lose interest
>>18044001https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/28/Stefan_cel_Mare.jpg/800px-Stefan_cel_Mare.jpg
>>18044043All right, that'll do. I suppose there's no point in waiting idly by for over 20 hours so I might as well start the round soon. Might mean a shorter round or shifting around the start times.
>>18043770Based
I strongly suggest you include at minimum>1) country of birth &>2) year of death if you want to avoid representing yourself as a pathetic lazy amateur who nobody will take seriously. For example >Thomas Jefferson, USA, d1826
Is it too late to include Lyndon "the B is for BWC" Johnson?
>>18044075Well I'll be.Not in the bracket, perhaps the form.
>>18044078Depends, does the tournament lose all of it's integrity by disqualifying the Venus of Willendorf?
>>18044082I'd 100% vote for the Venus of Willendorf over that big nosed traitor
>>18044082No, that would make sense
>>18044082Why would she be disqualified?>>18044086The niggers would have rioted even harder without him you stupid fuck. Nixon is the true traitor but you're too mentally immature to handle that conversation
>>18044092Because its not an actual person you dork
>>18044052You don't have to start it early or short the round, just make a new thread with the bracket for discussion and remember to link this thread in the OP
Bracket should be done nowhttps://challonge.com/c65m5yh4
>wikipedia is posting surveys to ask the user why you are opening one of their own pages about a nazi official
>>18044103I suppose saturday can be sabbath then. Honestly if the mods autosaged this thread at this point it'd be cool, since then it'd be clear from the OP that the tournament is in fact on.
>>18044104>Ron Paul vs. Cornwallis Bless you OP. We need a thread about this solely for the reaction images >>18044102Ok, and...? We're on a Mongolian goat herding image board who the fuck cares
Hold onto your voting tickets tightly as I make sure the bracket is up to the seeding protocol. You may see some shuffling around in the bracket.
I think this is the first year Emperor of /his/ has had a full 128 instead of just 64. Wonder what prompted the boost.
>>18044102The Venus of Willendorf is based off a real woman, we just don't know who she properly was.
>>18044114Make a new thread for visibility and discussion, link this one
>>18044119I suspect it might be the image.
>>18044127I suppose. Mods be gentle
>>18044135It was me, sorry. I inspire competition in others (and I hate it).
I highly doubt that the image limit will be reached in future threads, so I will from now on only make a new thread as it archives.
Grim reaper should not be in that's not even a human
>>18044163No, no, it was based off a real man, we just don't know who he properly was.
>>18044119I might have submitted a few contestants once I heard 128 was possible.
New thread >>18044158
>19 hoursI can't take the anticipation
>>18044119I made at least three nominations kek>>18044135Best quality thread in a long, long time that I've seen. Last OP I remember who got the board this active was the US presidents 4chan contest during Covid-chan that featured that unhinged schizo who would copy him. Those were the days...
