If I could travel to any point in time, I would probably go back to 1998? I would tell my parents to invest in everything worthwhile, and prepare for the recession. Or 2008, and make sure I don't buy NX (in game currency for the game Maplestory), which is almost the worst thing I've ever decided to do in my life.

On the other hand, If I did travel through time, I would probably end up in the middle of the vast vacuum of space. The earth travels around the sun at like thousands of miles per hour, and the sun travels around the galaxy at an even faster speed, and the galaxy travels through the universe at an even faster speed. I'm not looking forward to dying FOREVER ALONE in the middle of space, unfortunately.

I would time travel to one millisecond before I time traveled and thus create an infinite time loop I lack the reaction time to stop.

I would travel forward in time to after the winners of these prizes are announced so that I could copy one of the winning posts and then come back to post it before they did.

Securing myself a guaranteed copy of Achron. Score!

I would travel 1000 years into the future. What's going to be here? Will humanity have died out and the wilderness retaken the planet? Will our race have persevered and it's technology flourished, creating an advanced society? Will it be a post-apocalyptic wasteland where nothing lives? I'm willing to take those odds. Anyways, everything in the past has already been done, and you run the risk of creating time paradoxes and horrifically altering the future anyways. I don't want that kind of pressure, so I'll just roll the dice!

If I would travel back in time, I would travel back to the point where I took a picture of my poo and posted it on TL. I would say to my former self "NOOO, DON'T POST THAT PICTURE OF POOP!"

I would travel to 1957, and buy a Corvette to bring to the future. What else would I do?

That was my first thought...

I would travel to year 2000, in Korea. With my deep knowledge of BW, I would simply crush everyone while in 2011 I'm low C high on Iccup. I would use the Bisu build and 3-0 the Kong in finals. Then when I would travel back to 2011, the green eyed hero would be me instead of Grrr. (I do have green eyes), and there would be a Liquipedia page called "The endy build".

Otherwise, since I live in Shanghai, I would just go back to May 2011 and tell Kespa that there will be a fucking typhoon on the day they chose to organize the PL finals so they have to pick another date. And maybe in that alternative future, SKT wins :')

Smart answer would be to go back before we had the googles and the facebooks and the youtubes, and then just invent them all yourself. You'll be living in a time that you are familiar with and you'll have a lot of money.

I guess a fun answer would be to go back to the 70-80s though. Music was really good and people didn't give a fuck about anything. Before HIV was a problem. I want to experience this.

Personally I would probably travel to the very beginnings of life itself. I always feel like artists can never truly convey the realism of the alien worlds before our time.

I would travel back to medieval times with some now day tech......I would carry a couple of AK-47s and thousands of rounds of ammunition(to protect my new found civilization)........I would proceed to not only invent gun powder, but antibiotics, electrical power generators, and assembly-line production......after impressing the people enough with my "powers" I will develop a following of fanatical followers that end up making the graetest civilization known to man....yeah thats what id do!

I would travel to the year 2195 to acquire shoes that let you jump atleast 5 meters high.
I then would travel to the year 2070 to buy sticky gloves so I stick to anything I touch.
After that I would travel to the year 1340 and ride a horse I stole in a castle.
I would take it with my and travel to the year 2319 and park it in my shape ship.
I then would travel to the year 135.000.000 BC and jump as high as I could, place my hands on it's back and ride a god damn dinosaur.
I would jump off, go back to 2319 to feed my horse a carrot, go back to 135.000.000 BC and ride some more god damn dinosaurs.

I'm sleepdrunk. don't mind me.

I'd travel to the time some drunk guy misspelled "Archon" and named his game after it.

I would travel back to the time when Sappho was born at around 630 BCE, and I'd spend my days not only prevent or help her with her exile, I'd help her further develop her poetry and give her incite to the future of poetry, and how large of an effect she's had. I'd also attempt to recover the books she wrote that were lost, because her poetry was so beautiful and witty.

We know this much
Death is an evil;
We have the gods'
word for it; they too
would die if death
were a good thing

Tonght I've watched
the moon and then
the Pleiades
go down

The night is now
half-gone; youth
goes; I am

in bed alone

True art.

I would travel to a time when human augmentation is possible in the same capability as shown in Deus Ex, and humans are literally as one with technology.

I would time travel forward until the point where humans develop a way to live forever. Then I'd take whatever it is I need to live forever, go back to whatever point in time full virtual reality video games start to be made, and I'd play the shit out of those for thousands of years, dominating everyone like a baws

Probably to kill one or all of Stalin, Mao, or Hitler, or Pol Pot. Man so many people we'd have been better off without, hopefully their deaths wouldn't cause any sort of Red Alert-esque people just filling their spots.

I would travel to the year you were born, and swap you with another baby. Would this game then cease to exist, and therefore myself cease to exist in that time? Would I go back to my own time or would I just disappear? So many questions need to be answered now.
