Alright, welcome back to insanity, everyone!

I'd like to run another tournament of this real soon, and I figured it might be a good idea to get some input. As you may have noticed, there is no real logic to these, except the categories they have to fit in. So here are the categories I would like to use this season:

Science is Power (Scientists, inventors, and nutty creations)

Apocalypse WOW (Destructive forces in one way or another)

Historical Pretense (Historical figures portrayed throughout media, real life, etc.)

The Cake is a Lie (THE CAAAAAAAAAAAKE)

Purposefully vague, so this should be fun. 2 noms per division per person, please. I'll leave this up for a bit.

Have fun!
