User blog:Tbguy1992/Alternate History Wikia Realness Scale

So, I have thought of something, just sorta my way to critique different Timelines posted on this website. And, that result is the:

Alternate History Wikia Realness Scale (© Tbguy1992, 2010, all rights reserved).

How does it work? Well, I take a scale from 1 to 10, where 1 is "This is Alternate History? As if!" and 10 being "OMG! Why DIDN'T this happen?", and every number in between.

So, Quickly, I'm going to do some quick judgements on several well known Timelines of the Wikia, and many not so wellknown, including my own, so here I go:


 * 1983: Doomsday = 9 (duh)


 * Central World = 8


 * French Trafalgar, British Waterloo = 7.5


 * One Small Step for a Socialist... - 7.25


 * Washington Shot at Murdering Town! = 7.25


 * Napoleon's World = 7


 * Twilight of a New Era (1914-1964) = 6.75


 * Perez Jimenez's Venezuela = 6.5


 * Chinese Fascism = 6.5


 * Hitler is an American---Version 1 = 6


 * Hitler is an American---Version 2 = 5.25


 * l'Empereur Est Mort = 5


 * Superpowers = 4.5


 * An Independent in 2000 = 4.5


 * Titanic, the Luckiest Ship in the World = 3.5


 * Plan 17 Succeeds = 3.25


 * Map Game (original) = 3


 * Vampires = 1


 * Hitler's Almost Immortal = -1 (that's right, negative!)


 * Choose Your Own Alternate History! = incalculable (due to many different paths that can be followed, it is technically impossible to figure out!)

Their, that is my view on different TL's. Not to say the lower ones in the list (except for Hitler's Almost Immortal) aren't bad, and many are actually well thought out and researched, and very entertaining to read, it just the POD is slightly more wacky then some (like France actually succeeding in a military situation...). I don't want to anger anyone to much, and I will discuss my choices if you really want to know. And, I know, this is not a complete list, but I will be updating it in the future.

What do you think?
