>>50543344
It is fundamentally cancer, and was cancer before the culling arguments started. And I mean the old ones, not this new recap.

>>50543615
You're cancer. Begone.

>>50543637
I was here before you were, and I'll be here after you leave. :^)

>>50543651
I believe it. There's absolutely no doubt in my mind that you fail at life.

>>50543678
I'm doing fine, thanks. But thinking that being here means you're a failure, while being here yourself. Anon, are you projecting something? :^)

>>50543465
It's not an artistic masterpiece by any means, but it's hot in a power fantasy sort of way.

>>50543692
>But thinking that being here means you're a failure

I said no such thing, bitch.

>>50543692
>projecting this hard

>>50543327

right, because all these toxic IRC-tier arguments are not cancer?

>>50543713
Yes you did. If you're too stupid to notice, that just makes it funnier. :^)

>>50543755
>le shitpost snowman
Wanna know how he knows you're a failure?

>>50543019
So, let's say I choose Temperance and Death. The first 200 years I cannot die no matter what. However, what happens if I don't meditate? Would I just be killable or would I die immediately? What if, after, fifty years, I know I'm going to be in the middle of a war zone, so I start meditating again. Would I need to meditate for fifty years to be unkillable, or would I become unkillable for as many hours as I meditate for?

>>50543766
The root of his delusions, or yours for that matter, wouldn't change anything. :^)

>>50543019
>Strength
Simple upgrade
>Temperance
Simple upgrade
>The Fool
This is where we get tricky. I'll choose the Lovers. Since this is a power that can't really grow in a linear fashion, how about a person of my choosing slowly grows into my perfect lover over 20 years? I'll also choose the Moon, slowly becoming a master of the mind

>>50543782
I don't know, I just take both to not be a walking corpse.

>>50543782

It seems the usage of "eternal life" is inappropriate, seeing as how you have to meditate to actually continue living. So you either "live" as a mummified corpse, after death or whatever, or you just drop dead after 200 years if you've never meditated. I'm guessing the unkillable part only refers to not dying of old age, not anything else.

>>50543678
>>50543692
Just make out already.

>>50543282
>Belt of no-fat
>makes you more glutinous
Like, my whole body? Or just my pussy gel? Or maybe all of my sexual fluids? Hope it's only sexual fluids, sticky pee and sweat sounds weird.

>>50543864
You and I both know they meant gluttonous.

>>50543908
Nope, didn't even cross my mind. Making your 'gina gel more sticky is pretty in line with a lewd cyoa afaic.

>>50531661
I think giving people a reason to work together is very important. The CYOA I'm working on has a fantasy world besieged by some type of evil monsters, and it has various classes with different roles for the players to choose from.

One of the gifts the goddess gives you is a magic necklace strung with five gemstones, all of which are the same but unique to you. This necklace combined with at least one of your gems gives you some sort of magical HUD that shows your health and other things. When you exchange a gem with someone else it will let you to sense their class, their health, their general location (more accurate the closer they are), and when they enter combat. I think this is a nice way to promote anon teamwork and add a video game-like party mechanic to a CYOA.

>>50543853
If that's the case then you may as well just take Temperance and ignore Death entirely. The only way to die under Temperance is violently.

>>50543981

Doesn't exactly say that, but it seems to be the case. The way Death is worded just doesn't make much sense.

>>50543019
1) Judgment for a new life I can design. I'll be starting over from a young age. Extreme beauty and a familial setup for success is a given, but just as important is a healthy body. I have health issues this would resolve nicely.
2) Magician for more motivation/drive/discipline. I have a lot of problems with that and while many would be resolved through Judgment, don't want to risk it. Target would be top marks in school--something I'd want anyways.
3) The Fool:
a) Temperance. Since I'm de-aging, I don't want eternal youth coming too early. Hope to stabilize around 21-years-old.
b) Strength. Growing into it sounds pretty solid.

>>50543981
Agreed. Either I'm misinterpreting Death or it seems...bad. Doubly so because Temperance is better.

>>50544102
I'd say you're probably interpreting exactly the way it seems to you. Regardless of how you're interpreting it.

>>50543971
>I think giving people a reason to work together is very important.
uh no my character is so strong NOBODY IS STRONGER THAN HIM he can kill all enemies like woah psheewww and theres NO WAY HE CAN DIE I WONT DIE all you sad people needing teams are weaker than me heh psshh kiddo ill kill em all by myself

Context clues, anon. How does that fit with "because, well, that last piece of cake won't make you fat so why not eat it?"

Also, sticky vagina? Fucking OW.

>>50544185
I think his idea makes sense in context. I mean, think about it, it actually makes a bit more sense that the calories get converted into gel instead of teleporting away.

>>50544195
It doesn't make sense in context of the sentence, though. "Hey, I won't get fat if I eat this cake, so any not have my sexual fluids become incredibly sticky?" is word salad.

>>50544240
It says that you become more glutinous, not sexual fluids specifically.

>>50544410
>>Bully
And how do you deal with the bully? :3

>>50544459
Except you don't have to be the accused to recognize projection. The projector can realize what their doing, as well as a third party.

On top of that, there are situations where it makes so little sense to accuse someone of something that the accuser's hangups become obvious to any observer in a position to recognize it.

Basically, if all you can understand of projection is "no u", you probably don't understand what you're being accused of and won't be able to realize when it's true or defend from it when it isn't.

>>50544569

I bet you're just PROJECTING

>>50544569
>if all you can understand of projection is "no u"
I personally choose to view it as that, because none of you are legitimate psychologists trying to perform psychotherapy. You're sophists with an erudition fetish.

'When an Athenian accused Spartans of being ignorant, the Spartan Pleistoanax agreed: "What you say is true. We alone of all the Greeks have learned none of your evil ways."'

>>50544621

Oh man, you sure convinced me with your 2 deep 4 u quote.

>>50544522
>And how do you deal with the bully :3
"There's really only one way a Good girl can make it up to someone..." but I suppose you want a more detailed analysis.

>Bully
>your reputation would take a hit if he showed those pictures to the guys at school
After "Spies!", I'm not sure that there is much of a reputation to lose.
>you'll need to convince him another way
>get him to lower his guards by appealing to his desires
Just read the rest of the build really. The bully can just go on thinking that they are exercising power to force compliance rather than just providing a fun distraction. Play acting is fun and easy.

>>50544707
>Play acting is fun and easy.

>Pain is love
>No release

I don't believe you're going to be 'acting' much with that bully. It looks like you might have signed yourself up to be a qt Fallen Angel sexpet.

'Spies!' also isn't you personally getting caught, it's you finding out about them, and figuring out how to stop them.

>>50544621
>because you're not Isaac Newton you can't remark on obvious instances of gravity
There's no psychotherapy happening, and it's a very basic principle that can be grasped correctly by a layperson if they just apply themselves a bit.

Is it misused by idiots in shallow arguments? Of course, like every other valid retort. Learn to judge the difference yourself instead of dismissing every instance you find merely because "sometimes people say it spuriously". You'll be better off for it.

>>50544804
Are you mad that your thin veneer of intellectualism can be peeled away so easily? <3

>>50544804
But anon its more hilarious if people can't make such judgement calls.

>>50544804
Can you tell the difference between someone who's projecting, someone who's relying on Internet stereotypes, someone who's actually seen similar behavior from someone in the past and associating it with this person's actions, and someone offering legitimate insights? Because nobody else on 4chan seems to be able to.

>>50544836
You seem really convinced that I give a shit. Have fun with that!

>Maybe you have a better way of punishing them?

You seem to either be really bad at innuendo, or you just want someone describe the lurid details out loud. I like making people say slutty things, too.

Either way, after what you do with all those frustrated boys (after all, there's no reason to go one by one) I am pretty sure they're not going to be shocked by the fantasies of some bully.

>>50544901
Say, do we know it's the same Angel, or is there some sort of hive mind with winged females and lesbianism in common?

>>50544972
We don't.

>>50543551
What color does "Malcolm" refer to?

>>50544965
>after what you do with all those frustrated boys

>An itch
>"Is it getting hot...

B-but you took a build where you'll have almost no control over your own actions.

And that bully, he might have lots of other, interested parties, to show those pictures too...

>>50544972
I don't think it's a hivemind, I think it's more like SDA. There's probably a Stardust Anon somewhere, and maybe he's even still posting. But it's also fun to shitpost as SDA, which is why people do it. Similarly, it's fun to annoy anons by making winged lesbian girls or reposting Angel's builds every thread, so I think a lot of folks do that too.

>>50545047
A fallen angel is not likely to give a single fuck.

It was his first time on 4chan I think. He was really staunch to using his name as a way of self-policing his actions and words. This naturally drew conflict from people who hate all namefags and tripfags. The ire was inevitable.

How do you guys feel about cyoas that have a pretty well developed lewd side, but make you choose between fetish fulfillment or power? Like, you can be the epitome of sex and live in a closet, or stay the same but rule an empire. Feels to me like pic related.

It wouldn't be fair.

Oh, the orgasms are real, even the stress and shame will be real to an extent. But having to be coerced into and truly hating it aren't, and that's where play acting comes in.

>>50545581
But anon, /tg/ is cousin to /d/. Sure, power's seductive, but at the end of the day it can't make dicks grow out of foreheads or whatever improbable lewd things the cyoa might offer.

>>50545612

You underestimate my hate for them.

>>50545496
People started hating him because he'd make tiny micro updates to his cyoa and post them on a daily basis and than reply to nearly every post in the thread. There were days when 1 out of every post was his.

It got really obnoxious.

Alched had never posted in these threads before making Altering History to my knowledge, and his reaction to aggression from "fuck namefags" groups makes it seem like he was trying to be reasonable while explaining his decision, so you know he wasn't here for long. I think I remember him saying he was very new to 4chan culture but I don't care enough to go look through thread archives, so while I can't give a hard number, I'm sticking with "2016 Summerfag".

>>50545649
Hey, I get it. I was never a fan of the concept of Altering History in the first place, nor am I a fan of WIPs, so I was turned off pretty quickly. Combine that with updates and new versions so frequently, alongside it generally being a bit much to take in and redo builds if you're not that interested in it, and your audience dwindles down to a few staunch diehards which spawned the RP. That and his "Well technically I'll never be finished with the CYOA because I can always go back and change something if I feel like it" policy and a lot of people probably opted not to bother.

>>50545714
It depends on the breadth and scope of the update.

Most of Acheld's updates were extremely minor for a period of time, just manner grammar corrections and rewordings to put limitations on certain options.

It rubbed people the wrong way because the frequency of his updates were happened so quickly every /cyoag/ thread for a couple of a days at a time was essentially his personal blog.

>>50545769

>Well technically I'll never be finished with the CYOA because I can always go back and change something if I feel like it

This is the case with every CYOA though

>>50545769
He appeared in Jumpchain first in the October of 2015, through his spacebattle forum friends and made a Masters of Magic chain.

He got fed up with the Jumpchain "aristocracy" and moved to /cyoag/ because he wanted to make his own unique cyoa independent of popular media franchises and/or make his own versions of already existing chains, which inevitable caused conflict.

>>50545792
Yeah but that was literally his response to people who were waiting on a final version. "There will never be a real final version because I might feel like adding something to it one day." So they didn't make a build because to them it would be eternally unfinished. Or that was their line of logic, I don't know. I was never among that person's group to begin with.

>>50545869
Oh right, he was Jumpchain first, he did mention that. Also doesn't surprise me with his surprise to namefags given the amount of fagging that goes on over there. I'm surprised I remember that much given how apathetic I was towards his work, but it just goes to show how much it dominated the threads for a period of time.

George Lucas's philosophy is that a movie is never complete, that he can always re-edit and re-master it an make it better. His application of that philosophy is to re-re-re-release the Star Wars saga and give people the option of buying the film yet again or stick with the 'un-authoritative' version they have.

I was comparing such behavior to Alched's

>>50545869
Oh, he made Master of Magic? I'm sad to lose him, then. He did a great job with it.

>>50545976

No, "omnipotence is the best power" is just straight up boring. Yes, it's technically contained within the set of all powers. Good for you, you're very clever.

To spoonfeed you, the reason it's boring is that it removes challenge and decision making which is literally what interest is.

The first thing I'd do with my omnipotence would be to reduce the wordcount requirement (retroactively if need be) to however many words this post has (or "one", if I'm lazy enough).

Beyond that? All sorts of /d/eviancy which I'm pretty sure most would rather not read (and I'd rather not divulge here), among other fun stuff.

>>50546528
>>50546465
Of course I'd do that. First order of business with omnipotence is give myself perfect immortality. Second order of business is dicking about with reality and learning what i can do, and everyone knows I have omnipotence because it isn't fun otherwise. Third order of business is changing reality so everyone thinks the world has always been how I wanted it to be.
>>50546579
Which is why I'd create an entity that knows exactly what I want and how to get it. Like the Loving Genie.

>>50546757
Ok.
First I'm going to summon a friendly entity, like Jarvis, the Loving Genie or some kind of "guardian spirit" or whatever. This entity is designed to know exactly what I want at all times, how to get it and how to avoid unforeseen consequences (such as evaporating myself because I phrased my teleportation wrongly).
Second I'm going to remove the possibility of losing: I want complete immortality, immunity to paralysis, forgetting I have omnipotence or how to use it, being put in a coma etc. Basically, I will not end up in a bunker in a coma, or die because I fucked up phrasing my immortality.
Third, I'm going to have fun. I'll live the exact same way I already do, and make the changes I think will be more fun. Don't feel like studying? Implant the pages I have to read into my brain. Feel like sleeping in? Freeze time for everyone else. Want to go into the girl's locker room? Do it.
What can they do to me? I have no restrictions. If I don't feel like dealing with people's responses I can either kill them or remove them from existence and rule by fear, not give a shit about their opinions, or just make all of my actions seem okay somehow. Like people just think it's okay I skip ahead in queues, or that I teleport, or my appearance suddenly changed, or I summoned hot cheerleaders to follow me around.
When that's eventually become boring, I'll start doing whatever I want on a grand scale. I don't want to make people think my actions are okay, I want them to react like normal people do when I start a war, take over a company or make a certain fetish a killable offense that I will always know if you get off to.
Phase four is changing reality and living different lives, without knowing I have omnipotence. Basically "make cyoas real".

That's over 300 words. Please give omnipotence.
I won't be completely mean to people in phase 3, don't worry. I'll still be ITT, and I can give you a catgirl waifu if you make OC.

>>50546757

If I receive omnipotence, I'm gonna make it so humanity can drink all types of water, while still keeping a preference for purified water. This way, industries that specialize in water purification and distribution won't suffer to many loses. Perhaps I can finally give water a flavor.

Aside from that, I think I'll finally get around to teaching myself how to draw using GIMP so I may begin work on my comic(s). I really want this since I believe I have a couple of good ideas. I would just conjure them out of thin air, but that would be kind of boring. Maybe I'll also delve into other artistic pursuits. After all, I have no need for other plans, now do I?

The rest of my time with this power shall likely be spent manipulating the stock market and weather patterns. There is no reason for this aside from messing with everyone's heads and causing massive confusion. Plus, I can give certain places good amounts of rain for crops. Not that I care about people starving, I just want to alter the weather.

In fact, I'm likely to do many other chaotic stunts. Adding a second moon to mess with tides, Altering the way the world works so the closer people get to the poles, the warmer it gets, and causing a holy war or 22. Heh, maybe I'll just give some power to a random schmuck and make cyoa real.

Other things I'll likely do:
>Make Mars inhabitable to mankind.
>Allow babies to survive and grow even after abortion, but make it very obvious how much pain the infant is in.
>Bring back disco but not making people like it.
>Punch feminism. Not feminists, but the very concept itself. I can do that now.
>Make it obvious to the world that I am now God, and I am a dick.

>But why wouldn't you actually make the world the way you want it to be before that?
Because why skip the appetizer? I want to continue living my normal life while learning how to use my power. I think it would be far more fun to wait on the grand changes.
I have infinite time to live out infinite lives. The first life I want to live is my own, with the small changes I'd make if I had omnipotence (such as never being late, never failing an exam, never forgetting my wallet etc.)
When that's boring, I treat the world like a sandbox, making whatever change I feel like (but no one thinks my changes are normal, because that's the fun part. It's fun to see your reaction when I turn your foot into a snake. If you accepted this as normal, you'd carry on with no change).
When that's boring, I change reality and have fun in this one.
When that's boring, I design new worlds and a new life for me, then lock away my immortality until I die a natural death. Then I start over again.
>>50547222
Nice! But I instead choose to imagine I am currently living one of those new lives. Apparently me with omnipotence is a dick and wanted to live this life for some reason. Kinda like how God had to live a normal human life yeah?

Make myself invincible. My body would remain destructible, so any physical harm would still occur to me, though with massively reduced pain (atleast at the start), with my consciousness remaining intact through the process, regardless of damage and my body rebuilding in whatever manner I see fit. My conscious mind would be utterly indestructible and there would be no death for my own qualia until I so choose.
Next I would improve my senses, cognitive and physical capabilities into superhuman levels and give myself an eternal, unfading high, making all things enjoyable, also removing all need of sleep and bodily functions in the process. I'd probably tinker with my sense of empathy in a way, so I don't feel too bothered by others' suffering, also removing any unwanted feelings of guilt or embarassment. Don't want folks pressuring me into doing good, or feeling bad for doing whatever I want.
Once done modifying myself, I would create a semi-independent extension of my own consciousness and put it to the infinitesimal task of creating an afterlife/reincarnation system with a possibility of returning from the other side, effectively creating souls for people. I'll let !me handle the small details, but the afterlife would reflect one's personal beliefs and preferences and one could interact well with others and their afterlifes.
Now that I have secured my own existence and done some basic modifications, I would create for myself a mechanized battalion of well-equipped, loyal, immortal catgirls with unique personalities and quirks, as well as an adequate level of military proficiency, built around my own, known, SOPs. I would clothe myself in a similiar uniform and inspect the unit, then proceed to teleport in a non-swampman manner us into the outskirts of Aleppo, then proceed to plan with my company commanders and their subordinates an assault into the city proper, livestreaming it for /sg/ allowing them participation.
That would be the first few hours.

But I don't really die. My immortality prevents actually dying, getting in a coma etc.
If I am ever in a situation where I should die, my omnipotence returns. Then I can choose to start a new life or continue my old one (if I didn't die of age), possibly making changes to it.

I'll have the memory of my omnipotence return about once every five years so I can re-evalute my current life, like fix any mistakes or add challenges/surprises.
You're welcome for the new president by the way, this reality was getting boring. You gotta kick the hornet's nest sometimes.

>>50546757
The first thing I'd do would be to save the moment I got omnipotence, so that no matter what happens I can automatically revert the universe to that state. I then give myself the ability to mentally handle omniscience without losing my sense of self or otherwise damaging my mind. I'd then give myself true omniscience, including knowledge of all possible futures depending on my actions. I'd then give myself the ability to mentally handle omnibenevolence under the same conditions, and give myself omnibenevolent. I'd then decide what to do with my omnipotence based on my omniscient knowledge of all futures, and my omnibenevolent understanding of what the best possible future I can achieve will be. Then I'll perform those actions, whatever they might happen to be.

Obviously since I can't know what an omniscient, omnipotent, and omnibenevolent being would actually do, I can't really explain my actions any better. After all, I can no more understand what an omniscient being would do than a microbe can understand what a human would do, and even that probably makes more sense than what an omnibenevolent being would do.

However, if it doesn't actually fuck up my goals, I'll make sure to actually write out my reasoning. It'd be interesting for people to understand why I made the decisions that I made, and why I left in whatever problems I left in. I'd be concerned that nobody could actually understand my reasoning, but hey, I'm omnipotent - so I can explain things in a way that even a microbe could understand if I wanted to.

Also, if it doesn't fuck up my goals, I'll try to give myself my best possible life on top of whatever I'd normally get from omnibenevolence. It'll be a tiebreaker - if I could have two possible paths to the perfect outcome, and one benefits me more, I'll obviously choose that one.

omnipotence just means you have the ability to do everything, not that you have the knowledge to use your powers. Through time travel and the butterfly effect, you have the ability to achieve anything, you're technically omnipotent. But without omniscience, you don't know what atom to push at what time, so really you can't do everything.

>>50547878
>But without omniscience, you don't know what atom to push at what time, so really you can't do everything.
If you are omnipotent, you can give yourself omniscience.

>>50547897
see: not knowing what atom to push when in order to acquire omniscience. You're CAPABLE of it, sure, so you are omnipotent. Superman possessed the power of flight from birth, even if he didn't know how to use it. But without the right knowledge, no power is perfect or even useful.

Okay, imagine a muscle of infinite power. It can apply infinite newtons in a direction.

But it still has to be put in place to do the movement you want. It still requires knowledge to be used. But once you do use it it's infinitely powerful.

It has to do with disagreement over the word "power", really. I argue that an infinitely strong muscle is just that. If you want to use your infinitely strong muscle to build a building, you still need to know how to build a building. You have infinite power but not the means to use it most effectively.

You're a good guy, Anon.

>>50548362

With omnipotence, you have infinite power. That means you can literally will something to happen. You'd just pretty much need to think about it.

>>50546757
First: should I die, my mind & body will be fully restored and time will completely pause. Nothing will progress except my thoughts and acts of my omnipotence. This is a good failsafe. It gives plenty of time to think. To make ut a bit safer, let's say it will activate any time I reach a pain/injury threshold or my mind is altered or put unconscious in any way not of my own will.

Second: I will assume a new form: a monstergirl, perhaps alraune or slime (water elemental). Having some basis in nature is sure to be helpful. I will give aid to all those that give me offerings. All they have to do is say please & I'll cure someone's cancer. I'll also prevent natural disasters, stop crimes, and all that other stuff. This should get me some nice fame.

Third: I will uplift some people I deem worthy into chosen ones (misc monstergirl forms). Worthy people are those that seem nice, that I can trust, perhaps that really want it for the new body they get. If they ever go against my will or intent in a serious, consequential way, they will "fall," returning to being human albiet shrunken to half their size & emitting a mild dark aura at all times. People are encouraged to bully the fallen so they learn their lessen. The fallen can get their status back by apologising & making an appeal. I will grant the chosen lesser powers so that they might also help people, curing disease, preventing disaster, etc..

Fourth: By now, I should be known around the world. I want to watch all the news reports to see what they think. I keep doing what I'm doing until I'm accepted as the leader of mankind, singlehandedly ending unjust wars if I have to. I could probably end a lot of trouble just by cloning the entire land mass of Israel.

Fifth: Speaking of which, I need a domain. It will be a nature-filled paradise without a single pest. There will be butterflies and bees thst never sting, but no mosquitoes or ants or anything. ...

I guess to be omnipotence I could make Johnny choice work to. I could live through anything for 6 months. Then I get all those omnipotence perks and Johnny as a slave for REVENGE. If I became powerful sorceress, the things I could do to the person who RAPED me! I'd create a pocket dimension filled with the pure concentrated essence of physical pain and psychological ANGUISH and just toss him in. Then I could summon a living nightmare powered by his deepest fears and insecurities and toss that in to. Then I'd go enjoy being magic for awhile. Eventually I'd remember to take him out and if necessary, send him to a magical rehabilitation center to recover his mind. Then together we'd go through his memories of what he did to me, while I read and deeply probed his mind. If I detected the SLIGHTEST hint of a thought or emotion other than absolute regret, sorrow, and CONTRITION for what he'd done, then we'd go through the whole process again. I would do this as many times as necessary until he was COMPLETELY rehabilitated and sought my forgiveness, not because of fear of torture, but because of realization that what he did was truly WRONG. Then I would lend him for 6 months to a person who would treat him just as he had treated me as his just punishment. Finally I'd inform him that I have no intention of EVER forgiving him and toss him into my special pocket dimension one last time and erase the memory of it's and Johnny's existence from my own mind.

>>50548362
My definition of omnipotence is the first one that pops up on wikipedia, "A deity is able to do anything that it chooses to do.[1]"

>spoiler
You're also a pretty cool guy.

>>50548564

Yeah, I get it, but you've gotta choose most of your powers that belong to your origin. There's a lot of power that are pretty good that are actually spaced out over the origins, and 1 or 2 is just not something I find agreeable. Like, I tried making a build without the restrictions. I got 3 powers each from 2 origins, 2 from 1 and another 1 from 1. I guess this just tells you that it's a pretty balanced CYOA.

>>50548302
>>50548018
Yes, you have unlimited power. That doesn't mean you know how to use it.
My computer has relatively high specs, it has the power to run dishonored 2. Since I don't have dishonored 2 downloaded though, I cannot play it on my computer.
Omnipotence is the same: lacking knowledge of how to use it doesn't mean you're not omnipotent.
And if you die of old age before you figure out how to use your omnipotence to make yourself immortal, then your ability to send information back in time isn't of much use to you.

>>50548626
Your computer is not omnipotent, anon.

>>50548626

Imagine it as being able to grant a wish. In this case, you can grant yourself wishes. Wanna be immortal? Just wish to be. And you are? Hungry? Think to yourself "I'm hungry, and I want something to eat". Instantly you'll have whatever you want to eat in your hands/on a table in front of you. You don't need to know how to breathe. You just know.

>>50548626
>And if you die of old age before you figure out how to use your omnipotence to make yourself immortal, then your ability to send information back in time isn't of much use to you.
...except that being able to send information back in time would effectively mean you have unlimited amount of time to figure stuff out.

This whole argument reminds me of how Douglas Adams described the invention of time travel: No one actually knows _when_ it was invented, since as soon as someone did, it became available throughout all of time. Or something to that effect.

>>50548623
Thanks! I skimmed all other responses, 300 words turned out to be a lot.
After getting omnipotence I'll keep reading the thread to get ideas what to do with my power. Maybe I'll even make some smaller cyoas come true, like those pills cyoas. That could be great fun.
>>50548626
Yes, your definition of omnipotence is "infinite power but without knowing how to apply it and without the ability to use your omnipotence to learn".
Mine is "the ability to do anything I want". My first order of business is giving myself omniscience, because that falls under "the ability to do anything I want".

We don't use the same definitions and so can't have a fair discussion. You say "you can't do that because my definition says you can't", and i say "I can do that because my definition says I can".
We aren't using the same language, and the cyoa doesn't specify what the definition of omnipotence is. If you want to say omnipotence is different than what I say, then you do that.

>>50548735

>it became available throughout all of time

How? How does this make sense?

>>50548663
I never said it was. I said that having the ability to do something doesn't mean you have the knowledge to. A man who was granted omnipotence for a day would (probably) not achieve much.
A real turing machine, with infinite memory, IS omnipotent. It still can't do much without the right code.
>>50548682
but its NOT. Omnipotence simply describes capability. Sure, a genie is omnipotent, but they must also know how to use their power.

Hell, most fantasy settings assume that magic is omnipotent (given infinite mana), but if you don't know the right spells you're not gonna achieve much.

>>50548735
I never said you had the knowledge of how to (use your omnipotence to) send knowledge back in time. Just gotta hope you figure that one out before your 100 years is up.

It does. If you don't know how to do it, you don't have the ability to do it.

Which, imo, is the scariest part of true Omnipotence. One of my first actions would probably be to temporarily restrict myself to spoken or written decrees of power. Who wants to accidentally unmake reality/destroy yourself 'cuz you have a stray thought?

Fifth: The plants in my domain will he much larger than normal: car-sized watermelons, for instance. Everything here, even people will be supernaturally clean. All electronics will be magically powered & given an internet connection. Visitors can sit back on comfy leaves and play video games in nature, with shade to block any screen glare. All are welcome in my domain, but those that cause trouble will be punished. I will let them choose their punishment from an extensive list: exile, lolification (& re-education), isolation, and more.

Sixth: Time to start solving some world problems. I'll start with energy. I'll make a new plant that is a miracle biofuel. Fumes from combusting the plant's oil are harmless and, in fact, smell pleasantly. I'll make sure that growing it is more profitable than oil or coal. Miners will become farmers. I'll offer refuge for all that cannot find new work.

Seventh: I should be very accepted by this point. Now I will start to lead the world in a new direction. I will preach the value of cute things, sexually active monogamous relationships, and making other people happy. All those that fit my ideals (more of which may be added later) can come to me or a chosen to receive a blessing. The blessing offers a soft light aura and wards away all forms of misfortune. It also makes all happiness they experience more intense. Since people cannot just decide to become cute, my chosen & I will transform willing individuals for free.

Eighth: I absolutely do NOT want to persecute those that oppose my ideals, but they shall not receive the benefits. As time goes on, more and more will follow to receive the blessing. My end goal is world domination by willful, unanimous agreement. I'll wait however many generations it may take & make any additional changes as needed.

Ninth: I fix the rest of the world's problems, creating a utopia. People will shower me with praise every day. ...

>Sure, a genie is omnipotent,
A genie is not omnipotent, as there are things it cannot do.

A man who was granted omnipotence for a day would be able to do quite a lot, including removing the "day" restriction. The moment it occurred to him to use his omnipotence to gain omniscience and he did so, he'd be a capital G God.

Let's say time travel is invented in 2604.
My great great ... grandson wants to write a report on life in 2016 and visits me.
He traveled back in time to 2016. Let's say I'm a knobhead and beat him unconscious and steal his time travel device.
Now time travel was invented (or rather discovered) in 2016.
I travel back in time to, say, 1504. A knobhead beats me unconscious and steals the device. Now time travel is possible in 1504.

Tenth: Being universally accepted, my domain will have grown to encompass the entire planet. Any that rebel or oppose me will be given their own little patches of empty land to live on their own. They're welcome to return at any time.

Other notes: After world domination, to make things interesting, I'll create various sports & games, the winners of which shall receive my favor, perhaps even having most any wish granted. In public appearances, I'll grow to gigantic sizes to give the image of being powerful. Also because my subjects will look cute if tiny in comparison. The world's praise is nice, but I'd like to find my own special someone. I'll wait a bit to see if anyone I owe a wish wishes for me, because that would be romantic. After that fails, I'll just casually post an entry on some dating site:
Name: Anon
Occupation: Ruler of Earth
etc. etc. etc.

Someone will eventually take it seriously & reply. Although I'll rule the planet, I want to be down-to-earth.

>>50548997

Okay, so time travel depends on a device. Something you can wear. Where does it end?Where does one just stop time traveling? Or when, or whatever. Seems to me like the ability to time travel in 2604 was lost, despite being invented in 2604, seeing as how the device seemingly disappeared, or whatever. Unless the device was mass produced, in which case time is seriously fucked.

>>50548864

Idk. Some people are just mean.

>>50548997
or, you know, the time machine falls apart once he travels past the second that all the parts were assembled.
Think about it, a time machine either
A: must insert matter (itself + you) into a universe where that matter doesn't exist, in order for there to be a time machine all of a sudden.
or B: Somehow teleport every constituent atom that would have later gone on to become part of the time machine into place, in order to reassemble the time machine in the past on a molecular level. This would involve breaking a lot of molecular bonds and moving many atoms faster than the speed of light in order to teleport them into position.
Both of these scenarios also have the problem of there being other matter already occupying that space. So yea, maybe there have been time travel attempts in the past, and the sudden superposition of matter occupying the same space caused a magnificent explosion. RIP dinosaurs and the time traveller.

>>50546757
My usage of omnipotence would have three basic stages: world modification and continuation, and self-creation.
First of all: I wouldn't do anything that would result in anyone losing their life or have any other overly negative effect on them.

>World Modification:
I would realize all religious and folk myths and their supernatural nature in a way such that their existence only became known to a few of those already involved in the religions such as high ranking priests and similar, while the general population would remain unaware of their actual existence and continue to treat them as myths.

The new beings would generally be unaging to a point, and physically and regeneratively superior to humans, as far as they can whilst still remaining true to their original myths.

Any being of excessive power would be nerfed to a more reasonable powerlevel and/or have restrictions placed upon them so that they couldn't just go berzerk and ruin the world.

These new beings would be very few in number in comparison to humans and as such they would mostly avoid drawing the attentions of humans and instead try to blend in with them; in order to facilitate this the new beings would have (at least) two forms: a supernatural form, and a human form.

All supernatural beings would have tells whilst in their human form, these tells can be seen by any other supernatural being, and humans/other animals that are sufficiently involved in the supernatural.

>World Continuation:
I would ensure that all beings had a soul and create a perfect framework that would allow them to reincarnate.

I would also ensure the continued existence of Earth, or some other planet, that the world's populations and their reincarnations could continue reincarnating onto indefinitely.

>Self-Creation
I would remake myself into one of the mythical beings, probably an above-average one, and then I'd get rid of my omnipotence.

>>50549126

>No one actually knows _when_ it was invented, since as soon as someone did, it became available throughout all of time. Or something to that effect.

Is that all there was of this or was it actually explained in more detail?

>>50548965

>>50549200
>whim yourself into nonexistence
Do you whim yourself into punching yourself in the head often?

If you're dumb enough to absolutely fuck shit up without even trying, maybe you don't deserve to be omnipotent.

hypothesis have to fit presently observed evidence. We know for a fact that there is no form of publicly available time travel at present.

>>50549292

Yeah, available to one man. In one time period. It's not like the device is probably gonna be fine, and run forever on nothing. There are many things that can happen to it. But no, it's not available throughout all of time, since it depends on a device. And if you don't have the device, you can't time travel.

Personally I'd make more changes, but not too shabby. You're not a dick and you're not changing too much, either.

Never get rid of omnipotence. No system is perfect, you can't just go and delete admin rights to the universe and say "whelp, thats about as good as its gonna get for the rest of eternity. Cheerio."
Seal it off for a thousand years, find some mechanism to pass it on to someone when you die, but do SOMETHING. When god is dead and no new god is made, you get a shithole like the present.

How do you know this?
>device
How do you know time travel is limited to a device? And before you quote my posts, I was trying to dumb it down for you because I thought "time travel machine" was simpler. You have no reason to believe hypothetical time travel is linked to a device, or only one person can do it.
HOW DO YOU NOT GET THIS? HOW CAN THIS BE DIFFICULT TO YOU?
I know trolls won't admit they're trolling, but could you be a doll and admit it if you are?

Yes, anon. The original point was IF time travel was invented, it would be available in all time periods. So since such technology isn't available, the hypothesis is true.
