¿Question #75?
tiredmind: If Napoleon, MacGyver, Yoda, Sun Tzu, Genghis Khan, Wormtongue and Darth Sidious (The Emperor) played Diplomacy, who would win?

sparkous: Napoleon
BOBBYCAN: I'll go with Tzu.
oldhoss: Genghis Khan. Both a very good politician/diplomat and a very good warrior.
Pithagoras: I'd say MacGyver
weed131: Yoda
beerbear: Sun Tzu. He has the shortest name.
resin: aww, man! They're never going to be friends again after this!
bcooperok: Is there a bic pen, duct tape, and a lighter nearby? If so, gotta go with MacGyver
Woelf: Yoda and the Emperor would cancel eachother out, leaving the door open for MacGuyver to take the win.
Felimid: Three-way tie: Napoleon, Sun Tzu, and Genghis Khan.
ricardofo: Obvious, the answer is. He, win, who had the force would. Hmmmmmm.
GeneSteeler: Yoda
daveroswell: macGyver. Unless Bill and Ted crashed the game night. C'mon. They beat DEATH.
syphon: The only one still alive is MacGyver. Everyone else is dead. So, it's kind of moot.
FrogCrusher: Yoda
RustanR: Sun Tzu
Rosebud: Obviously a broken question. Everyone knows that Napoleon, Sun Tzu, and Genghis Khan aren't real!
Zarion of Arabel: MacGyver
gmcash: my vote is Wormtongue, very persuasive with the tongue
Jythier: Us all.
Alazabba: Everyone
Ardos: I think that they probably would get to turn 3 or 4 and then get into such a massive rule dispute that they collectively decide to throw the game away and never speak of it again. Ergo no winners.
catosulla: Napoleon. Let's be real!
DHEK: Yoda. He'll use some Jedi mind trick and make everyone lose.
Brentoon: I don't wanna be the loser that says the real person...buuuut I'm going with Genghis Khan
POvidiusNaso: yoda.
aleo09: yoda
TKRKS: Im going with Darth Sidious
jimmyjamesii: MacGyver
rshipp: More information needed: does MacGyver have a stick of gum and a superball?
KentuckyKid: Khan, I think.
ZombyDawg: Napoleon. No contest.
adde: Wormtongue
dmomo: wormtongue
nibuen: yoda
Langoroth: I think it would come down to Yoda, Sun Tzu, and Darth Sidious. Man what a game that would be.
Godeke: Sun Tzu, he wrote the book after all. Genghis would be too agressive, Yoda would never stab, Wormtongue just sucks, Sidious would stab too early, Napoleon would fail negotiations and MacGyver was banned from duct tape in game.
RinzaiZen: yoda
brainrob: Who cares - it's a dull game
WatchmanX2000: what, no one told you yet? it's been done.
Chris Page: Kissinger.
kinetic: hmmmm...thats a tricky one. I would go with MacGyver.
Platinum Dragon: Hmm, Wormtounge would probably only be able to erode Napoleon - the others are all far more strong-willed then king Theoden - so that takes him out of the running, but unfortunately Napoleon as well. That just leaves MacGyver, Yoda, Sun Tzu, Gengis Khan and Emperor Palpatine. MacGyver may be handy with a coke bottle, a rubber band and a handful of thumb tacks, but taking over the world wouldn't be his specialty, he's out. The Emperor rules by fear, but that's just not going to work against these guys, and force-lightning can't be used in-game, so I'll say he's out of the running too. Genghis Khan led by force of arms, and you need to be able to be more of a diplomat with this one, so he's out as well. That just leaves Yoda and Sun Tzu. Tough decision: they're both very wise, and experts at combat, but in the end, I just don't think Yoda is cutthroat enough. So, Sun Tzu wins. Realistically though, the second anyone betrayed Genghis or Palpatine, it would break down into a brawl and the game would be forgotten, at which point the winner (read: survivor) is a toss-up between MacGyver and Yoda.
jasta6: Sun Tzu.................
bigbadsteve: yoda
stray_flux: Yoda, most of the guys are too high on them selves and wormtongue's greasy hair would keep getting in his eyes distracting him.
Quest22: Sun Tzu
_Kael_: Napoleon was better at fighting, not Dippy, so he's out. Same goes for Khan. Darth Sidious already proved he could beat Yoda, so Yoda's out too. Wormtongue was beaten by the goodies. So whaddya expect if he's gonna play against some baddies? Out. I think Darth Sidious is gonna win, unless Sun Tzu talks McGyver into building a secret weapon out of 3 fleets and 2 armies and blow him up with it. In which case Sun Tzu will backstab McG and win. So,... hard to tell.
Loquutus: Sun Tzu
Recneps: You are a huge nerd.
slappinjoe: Sun Tzu
xlorp: If physically eliminating your opponents banned is, then reign supreme Yoda must.
Evilnames: Sun Tzu
Regault: MacGyver. He'd rig the board to explode.
Tushratta: Napoleon, because he would cheat.
Kyleroconnor: MacGyver (if he's chewing gum)
Randy Cox: Who is Darth Sidious? Who is Wormtongue? I'll go with MacGyver, as he's smarter. Yoda is a close second, but he's just to kind.
Mikebegeta: MacGyver he's just the shiznite
jellospike: LOSERS: Napoleon (he wouldn't have people to order around), MacGyver (he'd try to cheat in some ingenious way), Yoda ("War does not make one great"), Sun Tzu (not evil enough), Genghis Khan (would leave because he would find the game boring), The Emperor (because those people -except Yoda- are not stupid Jedi he can fool easily). AND THE WINNER IS: Wormtongue (because he's such a devious sly little bastard and all the other megalomaniacs would underestimate him -well Yoda is not a megalo, but if we learned anything from the new Star Wars movies, it is that Yoda gained A LOT of wisdom/intelligence on Dagobah-)
sourwyrm: yoda
Steve Be: Sun Tzu
leece: Wormtongue, until the Khan skewers him.
AWildEep: Yoda. That is not the move you want to make.
skrutsch: Yoda.
kimapesan: Well duh. The Emperor. Only Yoda and Sidious can use the Force to read everyone else's minds, and Yoda wouldn't back-stab anyone.
kunnagh: Darth Sidious is the Emperor? No spoiler warning?
Musti: MacGyver would win. He could revamp his unused armies into the most devastating weapon every seen.
2amp: me
scriptorum: Yoda says, "You will not attack Finland next turn."
Lord_Prussian: Genghis Khan
puffinge: Outsmart them would Yoda.
jimchris: Win the game, Sun Tzu. Have a head on his shoulders after the game, Genghis Khan.
stephensj23: France
nexttothemoon: Ee-nie mee-nie mi-nie-moe...-catch-a-shrewd-Di-plo-ma-cy-pla-yer-by-the-toe. -If-he-stabs-you-in-the-back-let-him-go. -And-you-are-not-it. (repeated six times)...and the winner is......drum rolllllllll ...Darth Sidious#1... with Macgyver#2, Genghis Khan #3, Sun Tzu #4, Napoleon #5, Yoda # 6, Wormtongue #7.
heli: I don't know most of them well enough to say.
Cavedog_pdx: Sun Tzu
Wintergoblin: Yoda
AlorielLelyn: Not Napoleon - he would try to fight a land war in asia and lose. MacGyver only knows how to do things with scraps, never anything already made. Genghis Khan would do well, then have to recall all of his forces because he died. Wormtongue was controlled by Saruman, who was only a minor bad guy, not like Sauron, thus inferior to most of the other opponents. Darth Sidious would become overconfident, and lose as a result. Yoda's vision of the future would be clouded by the Dark Side of the Force.... So ultimately, I would have to say Sun Tzu, because he really knows how warfare works.
filnari: The game would be called long before it was finished due to violence.
-Johnny-: Sidious
kennyb: Sun Tzu
ptper: darth sidious
steef: Yoda, nobody worries about a puppet
Nightmare: Darth Sidious
GuyHill: Not Sun Tzu. "A good warrior never fights"
thoia: There'd probably be an alliance between Wormtongue and Sidious
klarkinhistrep: MacGyver
isolated: It would turn into an all-out brawl between the Jedi.
Bluenose: The one who bought the game to the table.
chaddyboy_2000: I cannot process this question.
DangerMouse: Yoda, he'd be underestimated by all of them.
djflippy: Genghis Khan, by default. Last man standing wins.
StormKnight: Tie. Game degenerates to "getting rid of" players before a win occurs.
djlg: Wormtongue
netfilterz: Darth Sidious of course... Yoda wouldn't use his powers, and the others have none...
Ludocrazy: Wormtongue
geberus: Darth Sidious
disclamer: Yoda. Mind trick, hello?
jens_hoppe: Darth Sidious
Mosse: Give MacGyver some duct-tape and he shall be victorious!
BobDodgerBlue: The Emporer
hooded_paladin: Napoleon
AngusBull: Sun Tzu is the only one who really understands the Art of War
ejmowrer: I'm not sure who would win the game, but Yoda would definately kick everybody's arse.
tolendante: The spectators
Glamorous Mucus: CGI Yoda or puppet Yoda? Never mind, I'll say MacGyver. All these guys are dead, fictional, or inanimate, but MacGyver somehow always finds a way. And you can't overlook the duct tape factor. Strike that. Darth Sidious would win. Even those that mock Star Wars would admit that evil will always win because good is dumb.
snoozefest: Darth
queequeg: Ditka, definitely Ditka and duh Bearssss
Blackwind: Yoda..use the force man!
Draugnar: Darth Sidious.
Gelatinous Goo: MacGyver
CheetohFingers: Darth Sidious
berserkley: Grima Wormtongue
TamiWhitsett: Yoda. DUH.
PghArch: MacGyver
dakarp: A surprise victory by Machiavelli
tragicpoet: Yoda, being the only one with a hand up his ass he would be more inclined to end the game early.
Mike A: MacGyver, because the rest are just make believe.
Friendless: Bismarck
seppo21: Since only one of those has ever taken control of the known universe, I would think the answer is self-evident.
Fawkes: None of them. They'd all win by not playing Diplomacy.
Magnus the Blue: Sun Tzu, if Yoda let him.
skelebone: Richard Dean Anderson.
EYE of NiGHT: Yoda.
CDRodeffer: Darth Sidious
nix342: Sun Tzu
solove: MacGyver.... along with a piece of string, a small piece of gaffa tape and bicarbonate of soda
Donkey Thong: big mac
rochs77: Good question! I'd have to go with Wormtongue, since negotiation is 99% of the game
BaSL: MacGyver would build a plane of the game
Spielfreak: MacGyver
Flyspeck23: Sun Tzu.
WasQ: Darth Sidious
hacksword: Mr. T
Zambogirl: Napoleon Dynamite - he's got skills
Geosphere: Sidious. But only because everyone else is dead.
Ryno8: Wormtongue
dboeren: Sun Tzu
Dante_Cubit: Darth Sidious, because he'd fry the players with his lightning bolts.
TD2008YDS: Napoleon
nnf1: Sun Tzu
Snooze_uk: 7-Way draw
MisterCranky: MacGyver would easily win by provoking simple chemical reactions from the gamebits to distract the opposition.
Jon_1066: Wormtongue is a pawn in someone elses plans. Napolean and Sun Tzu were generals not politicians. No one understand trying to say is Yoda therefore The Emperor would get a lead then Genghis would smash the board to pieces.
gnomehome: Who cares
litho: Sun Tzu.
toucana: Yoda. He WILL win
melissa: Wormtongue. He'd steal MacGyver's string, outbluff the Emperor, face down Napoleon, Sun Tzu and Genghis Khan, and convince Yoda that to win is to embrace the dark side of the force.
LudesFactor: Yoda
Septic: Sun Tzu. He wrote the book.
ynnen: Yoda... "Support me in Germany, will you?"
PopeBrain: MacGuyver
janiera: Napoleon
Shakar: Yoda, he has the force with him.
Aldie: Wormtongue.
CortexBomb: The people who got to watch?
darquil: Darth Sidious, because he knows how to strike a mean bargain (and I mean MEAN).
jttm: Tough call. Its between Wormtongue and Sidious, but I'd say that the Dark Side would win.
ping9x: No one. There'd be bloodshed long before that game ended.
