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

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

That'd be fun, til you killed yourself in the process, how do you launch it?

Kill him with DDR, ah irony

 I don't think stepping on "sludge" would do that much to it, eating it however.......

#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...)
Science alone of all the subjects contains within itself the lesson of the danger of belief in the infallibility of the greatest teachers in the preceding generation . . .Learn from science that you must doubt the experts. As a matter of fact, I can also define science another way: Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts. - Richard Feynman

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

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!!!!

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


Go geology w00+!!!!!1
