Old entry

I would practice achron day in and day out. Then travel forward in time when military strategy revolves around this very technology. Then I would become the best Stratego in the nation of my choosing and using my skills that I practised in achron, I would take over the world. Then using all of the chrono resource available, i would send a message back through time and tell soo to 3 hatch hydra stats so SKT could win the PL final. Also, i would have destroyed the typhoon with the new technology so Shanghai SPL Finals fiasco didnt have to happen and i would have been able to watch.

I'd go back to the mesozoic era, mid-Jurrasic probably, with a video camera, a couple of really durable time capsules, and a shitload of memory cards. I'd film enough footage for 100 episodes of Walking With Dinosaurs, then put the memory cards in the capsules and spread them all over the world. Then when i was growning up, I'd have been able to see what dinosaurs actually looked like instead of computer generated images. (fuck casualty ^^; )

Also I'd write my name on dinosaur bones, just to screw with the paleontologists.

Travel all the way back to 1992. That was the year I was born and I've always been curious what its like to be me. Not in the sense where I AM myself, but rather seeing myself in a different perspective and view.

Only because I'm such a weird kid and see where it all started.

If I could travel back in time (while being the same age and having the same knowledge as I do now), I would go back to 1991 and apply for ANY position in Silicon & Synapse (aka Blizzard Entertainment), even janitor, just to hang out with awesome people all day long as well as play MTG and all their developed games with them.

Well assuming I can travel more than once (as if you could only travel once you would be stuck in the time you traveled to anyways), I would do that following:

Travel forward in time to Jan.1 of every year for the next 100-300 years to see the progression of mankind. I think seeing how we change and advance in the future is probably more interesting than actually experiencing the change. Eventually I would obtain some sort of universal translator, so that when I go back in time, I could actually communicate with people (I lol at everyone traveling back in time without realizing they won't be able to communicate with anyone and they would be alienated). I would also try and find some sort of "Eternal Youth" drug or machine. Not to make me immortal, just add another 100 or so good years to my lifespan.

After getting the translator I would go back in time to 0BC, and try and see just what happened to "Jesus Christ". After that I would to ancient Greece, to see the beginnings of what most of modern society is based on. Travel forward a bit to Rome, to see what that was like. The finally to a time in medieval Europe, and either use my knowledge of technology and what naught to become a king (or god). Or maybe by then I would have a change in heart and just want to live my life on a farm, let's face it, most of us secretly wish for such a simple life.

Can one really choose one so simply? There are simply too many, avoidable, disasters in history.
December 9, 1907 - The Monongah Mining Disaster.
June 3, 1998 - Eschede train crash.
September 11, 2001 - World Trade Center Collapse.
July 22, 2011 - Massacre on Utøya.
Only a few which sits on the top of my mind at this moment. There are more disasters than there are minutes, and most of them because of one human error. But if you really think about it, should man really dabble with what is undoubtedly part of the human evolution? What drives us forward as a species?
No.
The answer probably lies somewhere in the region of greediness for me as well. Back in time, to beat the best players in the world with tactics in games not yet utilized, and become a Legend.

Back as far as I can up the human species tree. I'd mate the oldest human female and be the father of mankind.

I hear my grandfather was pretty good at the violin and the accordian. I never really knew him at all and when I did, he was too old to really play instruments anymore. If I could go back in time, I would go to when he was in his prime so I could listen to him and meet him properly.

Go back to maybe 10 years before Shakespeare was born, write all of his plays before he gets a chance, and be known as the greatest writer in the English language.

I wouldn't go back in time to prevent some major event of (tragic) history from happening. Who would believe me anyway - I'd just be some weirdo rambling about the future and unforeseen consequences (also, I'd probably not speak the language as most people would do, I'd lack money etc.).

What I would do, however, would be the following:

There's only been a single case where I've seriously been sad that I've been born "too late" - I'm too young to ever have seen Queen with Freddie Mercury play live. Queen have been one of the most influential bands of my life music-wise, I've listened to a lot of CDs and records from my parents' collection and I've always loved their work. However, as I was only six years old when Freddie died, there was no chance to ever go to a Queen concert.

So I'd enter my time machine and set it to the 13th of July 1985 to be at Wembley Stadium for this:

Queen at Live Aid. The set only lasted about 20 minutes but it's simply incredible. Probably their best live performance ever.

(Ironically, that concert happens around one month after my birthday, but since I'm a child of former East Germany, I wouldn't have a chance to take a peek at my former self.)

For the slim chance that I wouldn't get enough of Queen there, I'd probably just stay, follow them around for their next big tour (It's a Kind of Magic) and then, a few years later, witness the fall of the Berlin Wall; another thing I'd have love to have experienced in person but couldn't due to my age.

I would wait for you to pick the winning response, then go back in time and steal that response for myself. Just kidding, I'd murder my past self and see what happens. Waiting for the random pick win.

If I know of the capacity of time travel and could sit on it, I'd spend the next 20-40 years accumulating facts and knowledge, acquire a multitude of skills and abilities, then travel back to tutor myself with all the basic facts about the future and place myself to reshape the world.

If I didn't have a choice on when, and had to leave now, I'd probably attempt the same on a much more limited scale, traveling back to when I was ten or so and setting up my friends and family nicely, perhaps aiding corporations or individuals I feel would help the world, i.e. world hunger, disease, technology/quality of living divide, so on.

I would travel back in time to when Jesus was around and then just constantly troll him by predicting what he was going to do next. I would then be the Jesus!
