If you could travel to any point in time when would it be and why.

I would travel to the past and give a note to my mentor that reveals exactly how he will die and how he can prevent it. (By wearing a bulletproof vest to stop the Libyans from pumping him full of lead.)

First, I go back and time and pick the winning lottery numbers. Then, I go to the future and steal the money that I would have had. Now I have double the amount :3

I would travel back in time and spoil teamliquid that the 2011 Jin Air OSL is Jangbang's OSL. The finals between Jangbi and Fantasy were epic, Fantasy just stayed 30 min after having no bases mining and no army, just building barracks and floating them over the map, it was the ultimate gg timing.
Why you ask? Every Jung fan would have his soul crushed as I somehow bring the video and posted the gg timing part in Fantasy's gg timing thread because Moktira obviously posted the VOD in the VOD thread. Talking about that, I think Moktira uses time travel D:

edit: I won't win this contest, just travelled back in time to edit this message.

This is actually a question that is quite interesting; never had someone ask me a question like this before. I think the first question that has to be asked would be if you want to travel back in time, to find what was, or to travel the future, to find what will be.

To me, the past can partially be found by the use of what was recorded in time. Though it may be only glimpses into the past and what may have occurred, we have no knowledge of what will occur. I would travel 1000 years in the future to see how man has progressed. Did we succeed in leaving this solar system? Are man recognizable to be man anymore? (i.e. androids) Are man even still alive. I am curious, and would love to know what will be.

I would time-travel to whenever it would be more prestigious to be a professional gamer than to be a professional athlete... Don't know when, but it's happening

This is a tough question, and it would have to include the knowledge I currently have and the ability to affect the time in which I travel to. Since this is Achron (been following this game for a long time, fuck yeah), I'll assume I will have both. But it still leaves me with two points in time. Both, I would like to enact change to see the interesting circumstances which occur as a result. Again, since this is Achron, as long as I manage my chrono right, I should be able to observe one, remove the change, and enact the other to see which I find more interesting.

Point 1 would be about 1840 AD, Location: Republic of Texas. I would advocate remaining a Country as well as getting Llamar elected for western expansion to the Pacific Ocean. With good relations with USA, as well as Britian and France, I believe things would have been incredibly interesting. Most notably, the Civil War of the United States. Southern States may have asked to be annexed by The Republic of Texas instead of declaring themselves independant. The United States may have allowed this peacefully or a war may have started between the United States and the Republic of Texas, depenending if Texas accepted the states' annexion.

Point 2 would be around 1500 AD, Location: Inca Empire. Purpose? 'Modernizing' them for preparation of Spanish arrival, as well as preventing the civil war that helped the Spanish conquer them. I believe it would be interesting to see how a "New World Country" would be when exposed to the "Old World". Especially if they were on the 'same level' as the Old World. Would Spain have formed peaceful relations/trade, for gold/silver? Or would they still attempt to conquer and dominate? How would things evolve to today?

Of the two, my final choice would be Point 1, as I would have much more chrono to go into the future and find green ladies for fun rather than observation

Achron is the first and only game to feature single-player and multiplayer free-form time travel. It is the world's first meta-time strategy game, a real-time strategy game where players and units can jump to and play at different times simultaneously and independently.

I have quite a few copies of this to give away and I'm going to do things slightly differently than I usually do. There will be two contests utilizing this same thread; most copies will be given away at random per usual while three copies will be given away to the top three responses (judged by myself and potentially a few other people).

Contest Rules

Must have over 10 posts
Must have an account older than one month
Only one post allowed per person
To enter, post in this thread with a response to the following question: If you could travel to any point in time when would it be and why (if you're aiming to win one of the judged copies I would recommend writing slightly more than a one liner unless you feel your post is overly witty and clever.

Winners will be chosen at random and announced on Tuesday, Sep 06 4:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00) and will receive their retail key immediately after.

Without a shred of doubt, I would travel to the year 0. I need to see Christianity sans 2000 year old fog, for what it was before blind faith.

I would write down the numbers for a lotto ticket that can be bought for $1 and will only win $100. Then, I would go 100 weeks into the past and give the "winning numbers" to my least favorite person in the world claiming that in the future we are best friends without telling him when the winning numbers would be drawn.

I would travel to the first day of high school for me. I would tell myself to try harder, don't settle for average or slightly above average. I would remind myself that time is short, and I can do anything I want. Hopefully, this would be enough to convince myself to work harder and not take things for granted. Cherish ones around me while I still have time, make my father proud.

Probably would just travel back to when I was a kid. Would be fun to go through all that stuff again.

Id go back to when I created my account on TL, make a different username, and eventually enter this contest under a different account, double the chance.

(or did I already do it....)

I'd like to travel into the time where the big bang probably happened. I would gather data and bring it back to present time to give science a little miracle.
