Ive only included the obvious ones (evil of course). And please, dont bother talking about the physics in time travel, or your little debates.

The dark ages/witch one...
-
Yah, I'm bored, so?
Take a minigun with you to the time before firearms, and appoint yourself supreme overload of earth by force
That'd be fun, til you ran outta ammo
Go back to the dark ages with armfuls of technology and make them think your a witch
That's be fun, til they burn you at the stake
Go back to the stone-age, and claim you invented fire
That'd be fun, til you realized no one cared, cause they're not all that bright, they're cavemen
Go back to the dinosaur age with an anti-matter torpedo, and prevent their extinction
That'd be fun, til you killed yourself in the process, how do you launch it?
Go back a few years and kill the inventor of DDR
Kill him with DDR, ah irony
Go forward in time, steal a starship, then come back and fake an alien invasion
Until the government kills you
Go back to when life was just sludge in the ocean, and step in the sludge
I don't think stepping on "sludge" would do that much to it, eating it however.......
-
Second to last is nice. :D
-
#1:
I always wondered what a tank division and/or a few MG-42s would do to the Roman Empire. They would think i was a vengeful god destroying their corrupt way of life with that cursed "fire-stick".. mmmmmmmm
oh DDR, as in the RAM?
edit: here's another evil one
Go forward in time, steal the AIDS vaccine, the cures for cancer and the common cold, and keep it to yourself.
-
I picked the alien invasion, but I would've picked the first one if you had made it an M12 Abram instead of a wussy minigun:D
-
Second to last! Think of it, stealing a nice culture-esque ship from the future and owning the world - not to mention the ability to create fleets (assuming it's like a GSV...)
-
I would go back in time and make sure they did a better job of FS2's PR.
-
Go back and flog 50cal machine guns to 15th century armies, getting them to pay me in gold.
-
An antimatter torp wouldn't do much to stop the extinction of the dinosaurs you know. :cool:

Im assuming a meteor was the cause of their extinction, therefor, a couple hundred pounds of anti-matter being injected into a meteor is sure to solve a few problems.
-
Look dude, the massive impact wasn't the only thing that killed 'em. Massive flood basalts sent the atmosphere up **** creek, for one thing. I mean, the asteroid didn't help matters, but no ammount of firepower could have saved the dinos. And of course, without the K/T extinction, we wouldn't be here today :)
Sorry to pick holes, but I haven't turned up for any geology lectures yet and I'm feeling a little guilty. Correcting you made me feel better ;)
-
Alikchi would go back and make the South win the Civil War, just to see what'd happen. Wouldn't be very hard, either
-
Actually, I would also probably do things like that; you can always change things back if you want. Would be interesting to see what would happen if Germany had won WW2, or if bin Laden had been able to take over the world... :D

yeah... intresting may not be the right word...

i'd go into the past with a truck load of weapons, and kill all the barbarian armies before they even got to the romans, so the roman empire would last FOREVER!!!!

Sludge! Sludge! Sludge!

Shame on you! I should ban you for that! Of all the classes to skip. :p
-
Class? No sir, lectures. I'm taking a geology degree. Which kinda means I should turn up occasionally, although I passed the summer exams with only about six hours of work done during the entire year (http://216.40.241.68/contrib/sally/spineyes.gif)
Go geology w00+!!!!!1
-
mmmm plate tectonics.... ;7
shouldn't you go to the classes... more often .
I mean, you are paying to be they there, are you not?

Just for being in geology I'll skip your banning.
Go to class!
(Yes, call it lecture if you want, but even after five years I still call it 'class' and 'school' :p)

YES!!!
I would go back as Carl evil minion, who gets to do all the killing, while Carl, the mastermind sits in a shadowy chair so we can't see his face laughing evilly
MWAAHAHAHAHAHA:D

In an email from a random professor
... this seminar should be useful for those taking the dreaded plate tectonics module this year
I don't know what he means - plate tectonics are A-1 Supar!

Yes. That's no reason to go, though. Blame my broadband if you must.
I mean, you are paying to be there, are you not?
:nervous: Err... I hope not, or I'm going to have to find a thousand pounds very quickly ;)

To put it bluntly, no. (http://www.emotipad.com/emoticons/Alcy.gif)

switch to pure math instead. :D ;7
-
:ha:
-
Hehe there are quite many of us going to steal the starship :D
Maybe we should steal more of them ;)
-
Go the starship. Then, recreate them, learn te technology find some vasudans and wait 14 years. The we will all be able to play FS1 for real. Yay!!!!!
Oh, and on a side note, assuming I get in I'll be doing a Double Degree in Environmental Biology and Geology year after next (It should be next year, but I'm deferring).
-
If I could go back in time I certainly wouldn't go forward.
-
*wants a combination*
*V wants the following combination V*
Go forward. Steal starship. Go backwards. Use anti-matter weapons on sludge. Appoint self supreme overlord of Earth. Create a slave-race.
Hmmm. That sounds a little too much like some text-based adventure game......Meh.
*goes off to play DS9: Docked with Dax*
-
Go back to that period in ancient history that always gets featured on TV- you know, the one where all the women wear nothing but leather straps or little rags, are all pretty much hot as hell, and when the biggest problem anyone had to deal with was some frail-ass fire-breathing monster from prehistory that could be dispatched with a good, solid kick. Invent the harem. And the BRL, so that I wouldn't have to waste time with those damn monsters.
-
If I could go back in time, I would go back to the time prior to World War2, assasinate Hitler and the stupid Japanese emperor. Maybe even Stalin if it happens just like the Red Alert story.:D
If I could go forward in time, I would learn how to develop a hyperdrive, come back and then introduce hyperdrive to this time and be rich and powerful. Then, I can live a life of luxury, surrounded with lots of naked girls. No blue bikinis! Yub yub!!!:D

FTL could quite possible be the stupidest invention which would ever be attained by the human race.
From the people who brought you Nukes, comes: FTL!!! Why spend billions to destroy the Earth when a single FTL craft can doo it for just a few hundred million?
In short: *points craft at Earth*
*engages FTL*
*annihilates several thousand years of history and several billion people within a split-second*
*causes the planet to break apart, thus dooming the human race*
-
that's not such a bad idea... ;7
-
If it saves me going in to Uni or getting a job, I'll do it

no, because real FTL couldn't be acheived by standard newtonian physics. i'd have to be space warp or something, which isn't true velocity.
-
Actually, you'd set off a time paradox. You see, you'd go back in time, change something, but at the same time you'd negate your need to go back in time/destroy yourself, preventing yourself from going back in time, causing the reemergance of the need to go back in time, etc.
-
Do NOT start that time crap. It's even more interminable than a political thread, and somehow even more irritating than a TaS one.
Anyway, yeah. But you wouldn't need to be going at FTL speeds to take out a planet, anyway. A rock the size of, say, a piano going at 1/3 the speed of light would do grandly- make a mean-ass crater, punch through the planet, disrupting the core, and likely knock it off-orbit enough to send it either into the moon or the sun, whichever came first.

Noooo, what about the war movies then!!!

I REALLY love that part.
I was just wondering what would be the consequences if someone had killed Frank Herbert before he wrote Dune:
1. No Command & Conquer series
2. No Dune (well duh)
3. Cryo wouldn't be in bankruptcy
4. No Frank Herbert (duh again)

1. Probably no RTS at all as we know it
2. Well... :(
3. CRYO=EVIL=EVIL=EVIL=EVENMOREEVIL
4. Don't care.
