I hope you haven't fallen for this age-old trick and actually clicked on the link.
However, if you have, welcome. This is where ideas, plans, and dreams are built.

i wonder if magic and science/technology could co-exist...


Yes, you suggested that on page 28. And then I said:

The laws of science wouldn't be laws anymore. They'd just be guidelines.


And mind you, at the time I found that riposte hilarious.

Before or after you eat them?

Either way it would be horrifyingly messy.

How bout a universe where whatever you think of, it will happen. Everyone has it, but then if everyone has it then there would be people negating what others want, who would end up on top of this world?

Would there be rules about what you can and can't make happen?

No rules since that would be limiting the "whatever" part, and how can there be any rules if you could just circumvent those rules quite easily.

Then wouldn't people think up things that would contradict other things, like thinking someone back to life that someone had previously wished dead?

Not to mention that it would create complete and utter chaos if everyone's thoughts came true! And the first person to figure out that they could control everyone's minds with just a single thought would hold eternal power!

There would have to be some sort of regulations on what could and couldn't come true in this world!

What about a world where cannibalism was legal and acceptable?

True and I didn't think about thinking of controling everyone, but then there is the possibility of just wishing that you were no longer under the control, this world would pretty much be a infinite struggle to reach the top but no one would be able to.
There couldn't be regulations since there would be no way at all on how to enforce the regulations. But what would probably screw up the world the most is when people start thinking up paradoxes and making them true.

Not much to really say about that since that isn't legalizing anything other than harvesting dead bodies, packaging them, and selling them in food markets. We do that with so many other animals so why not with humans as well?

Humans should be able to eat anything like just pull off a bit of tree and eat it and it tastes good and humans aren't allergic to anything. Every one has enough money to buy food, a house and a car then all the singers and famous people can have lots of money like they already do. Nobody steals/robs or does any illegal things. The world doesn't have any weapons so there are no wars and every country keeps they're land so that there aren't any wars. There isn't any gas and cars run on air you just haft to open this little hatch to your car then you have a full tank.

Then the new low standard in the world would be to have just enough money for a (by today's standards) good lifestyle. But if the lowest people live like that, many will be greedy and want more, thus crime.

and every country keeps they're land so that there aren't any wars.

People would notice that the country next to theirs was bigger or had something they wanted, thus wars. The land and resources would need to be given out evenly. A way around that is if there's one world government, so everything is basically the same country.

Nonsense. Then we would have a problem of intra-country fighting, as each state/province competes for the resources, or when the government favours certain provinces, such as Burma distributing more largesse towards provinces with more Burmese majorities. No province will be equal, as each will be better able to exploit their own natural resources, and each state-government will have different levels of revenue collected.

One could easily just wish that they were the only person with this power, and then they'd rule the world for all of eternity! If they were evil enough, they wouldn't undo any of it!

What about killing people and eating the body? Wouldn't that be an obstacle in solving murder cases?

Ever heard of Ted Bundy?

Forensics aren't as primitive as you might think. Yes, some psychopath may think they could cover up murdering people by eating the bodies, but in reality, there are ways of figuring out who ate whom.

have you seen the cartoon ugly america? monsters, zombies, demons, other creatures and magic all together in the 21th century.

i am hungry, can i eat you? come on, just your left arm. please!

How bout a universe where whatever you think of, it will happen. Everyone has it, but then if everyone has it then there would be people negating what others want, who would end up on top of this world?

No rules since that would be limiting the "whatever" part, and how can there be any rules if you could just circumvent those rules quite easily.


and what is if someone wants to be god and/or the ruler of this universe while everyone else looses this power?

hello, i want to buy a chocolate doughnout. *eats it* boom!

Humans should be able to eat anything like just pull off a bit of tree and eat it and it tastes good


do you know how long it takes to grow a tree? forests would be empty in no time.

and humans aren't allergic to anything.


sounds good.

Every one has enough money to buy food, a house and a car then all the singers and famous people can have lots of money like they already do.


then money would be valuelessly or things would become expensive.

Nobody steals/robs or does any illegal things.


envy is a mean thing that can turn even the bravest child into a thief.

The world doesn't have any weapons so there are no wars and every country keeps they're land so that there aren't any wars.


if someone haves something that you want then you do everything to get it. have you watched avatar (the science-fiction)?


There isn't any gas and cars run on air you just haft to open this little hatch to your car then you have a full tank.


i think we need more years and no oil left to invent such a car. but the idea sounds great.

ok, imagine a simulator that can show you your memories. if you think about something or try to remember something then you can see the memory.
