It looks like Flameshakes and Milkshakethrowers are in order...

In my world I would make everything neat and tidy for all the ocd/germophobe people out there. I also want to read minds.

Why not give a select few milkshakes, and then give many others flame throwers, and put them all in a big maze, to see who ends up escaping with milkshakes.

I think I'd have fun making a sci-fi post-singularity universe.
1 - Alter physics to allow FTL travel without completely destroying reality.
2 - Create sources of continually renewing energy. Seed them throughout the universe in opportune locations. Never stay up worrying about the heat death again.
3 - Give humans the secret of immortality. Let them figure things out for themselves. Fast forward a couple decades or centuries if necessary.
4 - Watch the universe explode with life and bullshit drama.
5 - Film their adventures.
6 - Sell to TV execs in the late 20th century.
7 - ????
8 - Profit!

Also, making new life seems like pretty much the ultimate pass-time for the all-powerful, so I'd probably end up flooding the universe with poorly-thought-through animal people at some point.
Poor bastards.

I would alter the laws of physics so as to remove entropy and make FTL speeds possible, and exile anyone and anything I don't like to other worlds where they can't annoy me. Then I'd turn earth into a high-fantasy world, with all sorts of insane and varied madness. I would also transpose books and stories into reality. Essentially, I would put into place all of my insane fantasies.

Once you have the latter kind of power, you no longer want anything. Except a challenge.
Couldn't you just cheat and make it so that you'd never get bored? If you could bend reality, surely your own mind would be editable too.

Sure, but then what would you do all day?

And people, the reason the lightspeed rule is the way it is, is so multiple species can evolve without "First to FTL gets the universe".

I would fuck around with all kinds of stuff, get bored, set everything back to normal, then just use it to make my life easier.

Our receiving equipment for radio (which is really all we're monitoring) is pathetic past maybe a few light-years. Unless they're manipulating stars or pulsars, other species could be everydamnwhere and we still wouldn't know it. And don't even get me started on the distances between galaxies :)

I would inspire Toady to start making DF ten years earlyer, therefor the game would be ten years more advanced by now.



No other change would be made.

This is part of what I would do while fucking around before getting bored. That and the same things any normal teenage male would do with that kind of power. >.> <.< *hangs my head in shame*
