History WMG / SortingAlgorithmOfFaceHeelTurning

[[folder:Transformers]]
Breakdown from ''WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime'' has several PetTheDog moments, so odds are that he’ll eventually become an Autobot:
* Species: Cybertronian/Alien-robot. 2.

* Age: He acts like someone middle-aged. 3.
* Role: Serves as the Decepticons’ [[TheBrute Brute]]. 3.
* Aesthetics: Has an EyepatchOfPower after getting one of his optics ripped out. 2.
* Motivation: His motives aren’t said out loud, but he seems to be loyal to Megatron. 5.
* Characterization: NobleDemon. 4.
* Contentness: Seems to be doing okay, but not great. 3.
* Morality of the story: BlackAndWhiteMorality. 2.
* Idealism of the story: Middle of the road when it comes to idealism. 3.

* 29/10 = 2.9 Breakdown almost reaches 50/50. Whether he’ll go through a HeelFaceTurn is in question; only time will tell.
** Update: He got killed before he could change sides.

[[folder:Veronica Mars]]
The {{Big Bad}}s from the first two seasons of ''Series/VeronicaMars'' (beware spoilers).

Aaron Echolls:

* Age: Middle Aged. 3.
* Role: BigBad. 1.
* Aesthetics: InformedAttractiveness. 4.5.
* Motivation: Gah, complicated. Beats Logan because he’s a nutjob. Kills Lilly to keep sleeping with her secret. Does other things to get away with killing Lilly. I’ll go with 2.
* Characterization: *shrug* Once we find out he killed Lilly, he becomes a pretty flat character... but he had some PetTheDog moments before. He’s pretty bats*** crazy, so I’ll go with 2.
* Contentment: He seems pretty cheerful most of the time, so 2.
* Morality of the story: Black and Gray? Ish? 1.
* Idealism of the story: Cynical. 1.
* 18.5/9 = 2.0555555556. Not really gonna happen. (Well, he’s dead, so...)

Cassidy Casablancas:

* Age: Teenaged. 5.
* Role: BigBad. 1.
* Aesthetics: YMMV. Some find him sexy. 4.
* Motivation: Again, kinda complicated. With the biggest thing (the bus crash), it was desperation to avoid people finding out about how he was abused. Which is kinda between 3 and 2. 2.5.
* Characterization: ...GAH I HATE YOU. He seemed pretty ObviouslyEvil up on the roof, but cold-blooded might fit better. He's bats*** crazy, but due to FreudianExcuse, gets considered “lost and confused” a lot. Especially just before he jumped. Averages say 2.75.
* Contentment: Given he kills himself in the end, he wasn’t having it easy. 5.
* Morality of story: Black and Gray. 1.
* Idealism of the story: Cynical. 1.
* 24.25/9 = 2.6944444444. Unlikely. (And he’s also dead, so I’m not sure these had that much of a point...)

[[folder:The Warrior's Chronicles]]
Let's see if Emperor K'Yyrikakas would have any chance at all of becoming good:
* Species: Krisil aren’t exactly close to humanoid... 1.
* Gender: Krisil don’t seem to really have them bar the Birthers. Leaving blank.
* Age: He’s not an OLD god-king, but he’s certainly not a teenager. Let's say 4.
* Role: He’s the invaders’ overlord, pretty much guaranteed 1.
* Aesthetics: Well, considering he’s not humanoid in the slightest I’ll have to say 1. And he is a little scaly-looking...
* Motivation: Well... He truly believes that conquest is good for his people... let’s say 3.
* Characterization: He’s a king and he’s not afraid to be dirty when he has to. Pretty much a 3.
* Contentness: He’s not exactly laughing with glee as they mow down the human infidels, but he likes it. 2.
* Morality of the story: There’s the true white, the true black, and all the grays in between. 2.
* Idealism: The stories a BIT cynical, but not enough to drag it all the way to a 2. 3.
Average: 2.22 repeating. - That's below average, but far better than a large amount of big bads. All in all, he probably could have been converted if they'd figured out a way to form an alliance with him.

[[folder:World of Warcraft]]
So how likely was Jaina Proudmoore [[MemeticMutation being a Dreadlord all along?]] With the story development in ''Legion'', how likely will she snap and become a Raid Boss? Let’s find out!

* Gender: Female, 3
* Age: She’s a young adult. 5
* Role: At the rate of what she is in [=WoW=] she’s left Dalaran in anger, thus more likely a Freelancer. 4
* Aesthetics: In average, 3, this is because by default she’s an attractive blonde, but after the Bombing of Theramore, her hair is bleached white. So average between 1 and 5.
* Motivation: Usually, for peace to be attained. We cannot say 1 as she’s now too bitter and leans more into WellIntentionedExtremist AT BEST. So 3.
* Characterization: Surly, bitter NOW defines her. 3.
* Contentness: Full on Angst after Bombing of Theramore. 5.
* Morality of the story: Alliance and Horde has no higher ground in here. And then there’s the Burning Legion... 5.
* Idealism of the story: It’s Blizzard, the company with a boner for CrapsackWorld, DownerEnding, etc, and they seem to designate Azeroth as such (not so much for [[VideoGame/StarCraft Korprulu Sector]] lately). 5.
* Average: 39/10: 3.9. It’s very probable. And since it's Blizzard... well yeah, we might as well get our gears up and prepare to raid Jaina one day, and remember her good old self by playing ''VideoGame/HeroesOfTheStorm''...

[[folder:Second World War]]
%%% Please keep this one at the very bottom of the page %%%

Now, for a somewhat controversial use of the scale. It is time to settle a question that is furiously debated on practically every online forum that doesn’t have a BanOnPolitics. Who was more evil, Hitler or Stalin?

For UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler:

* Species: Everyone in RealLife is human, so this doesn’t apply.
* Gender: Male. 2
* Age: He came to power when he was in his forties, and started UsefulNotes/WorldWarII when he turned fifty. 3
* Role: The ''one'' BigBad, not only of the war but arguably the entire century. 1
* Aesthetics: He was pretty ugly. 3
* Motivation: Though he was no doubt a monster, he did not do it just ForTheEvulz. He wanted power, but that was derived from his social Darwinism and belief that “inferior races” must be eliminated. I will combine both for 2.5
* Characterization: Did he ever talk about anything other than killing those who weren’t part of his MasterRace? 1
* Contentness: The war did not affect him personally until the very end when he knew he had lost. When his power was at his peak, he was enjoying every minute of it. 1
* Morality of the story: RealLife, by definition, [[MoralityKitchenSink has people of every moral persuasion]]. 4
* Idealism of the story: Nobody can agree on how cynical RealLife is, so this will not be counted.
* Average: 17.5/8 = 2.1875. The most disturbing thing about this is that he even scored higher than a 2.0.

Now on to Stalin:

* Species: Same as above, N/A
* Gender: Male. 2
* Age: Began his rule while middle-aged, but lived long enough to be considered old, so this averages out to 2
* Role: We're comparing him to Hitler, so only his role during the war will be counted. He was technically on the same side as the Allies for that one; we can consider him an Opportunist. 2
* Aesthetics: He looked pretty normal during his time in power. 3
* Motivation: [[ItsAllAboutMe Power, power, and nothing else but power]]. 2
* Characterization: LawfulEvil. 3
* Contentness: During the war, he claimed to be suffering but it didn’t really affect him. Let's go with neutral. 3
* Morality of the story: See above. 4
* Idealism of the story: See above. N/A
* Average: 21/8 = 2.625. Okay, it’s downright disturbing how close to the dividing line he is. Then again, he ''did'' side with the Allies when Hitler was threatening everyone (albeit for purely selfish reasons). That there are villains with even higher scores than this does not make it any less disturbing.

Despite all that, let the argument rest that Hitler was more evil than Stalin.

||'''[[BeautyEqualsGoodness Aesthetics]]'''|| OneWingedAngel, Across the BishonenLine, [[ReptilesAreAbhorrent Reptile-themed]] || One seriously creepy part: RedRightHand, GlamourFailure || Plain-looking, Genuinely ugly, CreepyAwesome, [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman Monstrous]] || [[TheBeautifulElite Unnaturally Beautiful,]] EvilIsSexy || GorgeousGorgon, CuteMonsterGirl, Pretty, UglyCute ||

* Asthetics: EvilIsSexy. 4.

* Asthetics: Fangirls will scream EvilIsSexy, but if you ask him, RedRightHand, so 2.

* Asthetics: EvilIsSexy. 4.

* Asthetics: EvilIsSexy. 4.

* Aesthetics: EvilIsSexy, fellas! Smooth Criminal, anyone? - 4

* Aesthetics: [[EvilIsSexy Evil Is Rugged]]. That mask ain’t foolin’ anyone, plus he’s got the voice of [[Creator/JunichiSuwabe someone who makes his characters]] a SexGod - 4

* Aesthetics: [[EvilIsSexy Evil is]] ''[[EvilIsSexy very]]'' [[EvilIsSexy sexy]]. 4.

* Aesthetics: EvilIsSexy {{Bishonen}}. 4.

* Aesthetics: EvilIsSexy. 4.

* Aesthetics: She's definitely beautiful, and it may count for EvilIsSexy. 4.

* Aesthetics: Well, [[EvilIsSexy evil is sexy]], after all. 4.

* Asthetics: EvilIsSexy. 4.

* Aesthetics: EvilIsSexy - 4

* Aesthetics: In the eyes of {{fanboy}}s, EvilIsSexy. 4

* Aesthetics: EvilIsSexy, EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette flavor. (Thor calling him “greasy and weaselly” notwithstanding.) 4.

* Aesthetics: EvilIsSexy. 4

* Aesthetics: Used to be lowest on this scale as Rumple, but as Mr. Gold, he’s a case of EvilIsSexy. 4

* Aesthetics: Between EvilIsSexy and just plain attractive. 4.5

* Aesthetics: The game’s poster girl for EvilIsSexy. 4.

* Aesthetics: Well, while Sombra is not running on EvilIsSexy like Widowmaker, she’s pretty attractive, actually that gives her a higher score: 5.

* Asthetics: Definitely EvilIsSexy. 4.

* Aesthetics: YMMV. I found him pretty EvilIsSexy, but not everyone would have. But I’ll go with 4 anyway.

* 35/9 = 3.8888888889. Well, [[JustForPun looks like someone prefers tofu over meat]]. [[SincerityMode In all seriousness,]] Flit better watch his back, because Frederick is going to show his true colors ''very soon.''

* Average: 6, surprising for a character who was [[spoiler: turned into stone by the end of the series.]].

* Gender: Male. 4.
* Age: He is older than the sun and moon and the world itself, but takes the form a young adult. Either impossible to rate or a 4.

* Aesthetics: Sauron , the beautiful servant of Morgoth. 4.

* Characterization: He is introduced as a confused RetiredMonster in human form, but is hard to believe the Master of Lies even if he truly tries to atone. A 5, probably.
* Contentness: He is a deceiver and is impossibly to guess how he feels about being evil, and shows signs he is even Oblivious about being evil.

* Cynicism of the story: It's a colorful world, but a lot of tragedy is about to be unfolded. 3.
* 32.5/9 =3,61 or 28,5/8=3,56. Yeah, it wouldn't have lasted at all. Galadriel can't be blamed for his constant HeelFaceRevolvingDoor.

Theo, a kindhearted teenage boy from the show, is theorized to become one of the ringwraiths, if not outright the Witch King of Angmar. Let's see what are the chances of him becoming CanonAllAlong.

* 29/10 = 2.9 While not quite at 50/50, it’s definately a high mark. Being [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe an asari]] helps her there. But her [[ForTheEvulz motivation]] and [[PsychoForHire characterization]] keep her from floating as high as I’d expected.

I know the series already ended but I'm surprised no one has done Cozy Glow
