Poll: Flying or Teleporting?

[pigsnoutman]

I'm dull, so I'd use my power of teleportation to get a well paid job in central london and live in India like a king.

Flight. Too much room for error on teleportation. Would hate to end up partially inside a wall, and partially not.

Teleport out of it.

Assuming you don't die instantly.

 

[sudokucrazedman]

With teleportation you can simulate flying, and it would make travel time a lot easier.

 

[XJ-0461]

Both.

I'd have a TARDIS for such travel.

 

[Quaxar]

Captain Jack Harkness or Superman?

How is that a question? Superman! 'cause, you know, Superman doesn't keep a gun up his you-don't-wanna-know.

Apart from that I'd prefer teleportation. I wouldn't walk more than 5 meters, but that's my burden, every hero needs one. And it could save me billions on gas and bus tickets. Instant-holiday!

 

[Xyliss]

Flight, especially if I had wings.. I would love that!

 

[crazyfoxdemon]

Teleportation... by by money in bank vaults xD

 

[deadguynotyetburied]

Depends on what kind of flight, what kind of teleportation. Am I restricted to line of sight, can I teleport other things to me, how fast do I fly, how maneuverable am I?

teleportation is faster and safer no accidently flying into a jet engine to foul your day.

Why would you die instantly? You've got as long as you have breath assuming your face is trapped.

Because walls aren't known for getting out of the way quickly?

It'd be moved out of the way. Matter cannot occupy the same place. And if you are teleporting into it then it has to move. Otherwise, well, you plainly aren't teleporting into it are you?

While it is true that matter cannot occupy the same space, everything is made up of 99% empty space held together by electron bonds when you break it down to sub-atomic physics, there is plenty room to put things next to it, it just would result in an immediate nuclear repulsion at the sub-atomic level. Small parts of your body and the wall would expand immediately to compensate this, which wouldn't be good all things considered.

But besides that, you could die from shock, heart failure, brain damage, major organ failure due to being embedded, etc. Not a pretty sight at all.

If I could be sure I'd not end up in a wall or something I'd go for teleporting, today really reinforced that choice having carried home all my artwork from college minus the really big heavy stuff.

 

[Mr.Mattress]

Flyings fun but teleporting is quicker... I can't choose between the two...

 

[Crispee]

Difficult choice, while flying is more fun and exciting, teleportation is faster and much easier to hide. So I'd have to say Teleportation.

THough if given the choice between those two and Super Speed, I'd go with that because it combined the best parts of them both.

 

[Baron von Blitztank]

Teleportation.
As awesome as flying would look, I don't want to risk being hit by jet planes or birds, or flying over a no-fly zone. Besides I may be in a situation where I have a roof over my head. Can't fly effectivly indoors now can I?

With teleportation it would take less work to move from point A to point B and would be a lot handier in a situation where I need to get away really fast.

 

[Ziggy the wolf]

i would rather fly, you can do far more with the power of flight, fuck with people by dropping shit on them. you can take a girl flying with you and you can get around faster. teleportation is wonderful things but like transportation its more about the journey they the destination
