Timor the Lame - aka, Tamerlane

Tamerlane, if I remember was quite an educated man. He like to read poetry as well as build human skull pryamids. I really should of put him on it.

when weighing "evilness" do you take into account any reason the person may have had, even if it seems like rubbish to you?

Khan just loved bloodshed. He left it to his offspring to rule.

Stalin had a political goal in mind. sure, he had to kill lots of people who "got in his way", "supported his enemies", or "were a drain on society".

Yeah, but Kaiser Wilhelm? He wasn't remotely evil compared to the others on the list. A typical European monarch, perhaps, but not evil. He was a bit of a fool, but that is true for most royals.

Mao was responsible for the deaths of millions. Hardly nice.

Uber, I think both Khan and Stalin killed for political reasons. Khan did it to demonstrate his power and strike fear into the hearts of people so they would not oppose the horde. Stalin did it for the same reasons. I don't think Stalin had any qualms about it, either. He seemed to enjoy making people afraid. That's evil. Plus, he lived in a time period and society where such acts were far more morally reprehensible and worthy of condemnation than they were in Khan's time.

Chengis was an evil man, sure...but I give the edge to Joe.

Wilhelm wasn't even evil... just a bit of a deluded fool.

And it's funny to see that people equate evilness with high numbers... there's people there who enjoyed making people suffer (even if it was only a few) and they don't have any votes... *snickers*
