"Worst" in this case being mitigated by the fact that it was an intentional act of an omnibenevolent being... or so the story goes.
I take it then you're voting Noah's Flood?
Actually, I'm not voting at all, because the question is ambiguous... because the word 'worst' is ambiguous. Is the 'worst' flood the one that killed the most people, or is the 'worst' flood (as floods go) the one that killed the fewest people? You've clarified that it's either about the number of people killed or the percentage of people killed. But you haven't clarified if killing people is good or bad when it comes to establishing the ranking of floods.

A non-vote for this sort of thing also says that they don't consider this something worth voting on.
No argument there.
What about the fall of Numenor, when the entire small continent slipped into the sea in the Second Age?
Im wondering how the fall of Numenor would fit into a question about history?I take it you voted OTHER?
See post #33
You seem to think you know a lot about me.The answer to Post 33 is that one obviously isn't a history buff, and doesn't feel confident enough to vote.
