You guys should have it very soon.

I would say Nicholas II but for his involvement in the russo-japan war and the great war.
The lesser known Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovich of Russia (the aforementioned's succesor) was also military involved...

Did he die before the 20th century?
If the first question is yes, is it Paul I? If the first question is no, is it Nicholas II? I have to use wikipedia for this stuff lol.

So I didn't say that he wasn't militarily involved. I just said that it isn't what he is most well known for, or even that good at. It was a tough call to make on whether to answer that as a yes or no. Sorry for any confusion it caused.

See my above post explaining the military part. I know he was involved in the Russo-Japanese War and WW1, but he sucked in both of them, and in my opinion, is not what he is most well known for. I think he's most well known for being the last czar of Russia and the czar that the Bolsheviks put to death, along with his whole family.

I don't know how you guys want to play it...x-raider mentioned Nicholas II first, but Gilipig was the first to actually ask the question. It's up to you guys who gets the credit for the correct answer.

Either way, congrats!

I think he's most well known for being the last czar of Russia and the czar that the Bolsheviks put to death, along with his whole family. " Yes. Quite true. I guess It's sound to say that he was more well known for that than as a military figure.

I didn't mean to make a guess, just observations, especially because I will be inactive over some of the weekend.

So this thread can proceed normally. Gillipig: back to you now. Though you've evolved in the interim. Would you consider that a higher state of evolution?


Have fun!!

Yes !!!
Okay guys. I have someone in my mind. Ask ahead. (btw x-raider, I think we've evolved quite quickly here. Earlier we chose quite easy people to guess. But as our questions have become more fine tuned, we've had to chose harder targets.)
