The most useful superpower in the world

[Gindil]

the ability to go back in time but without making mistakes

*imagines*

*Remembers Butterfly Effect*

*Deciding between a blessing and a curse...*

OT - I'd want to be the type to be able to fly anywhere. Save on gas, electricity, and my carbon footprint would be nil.

Imagine if my gf wanted to start singing about a magic carpet ride from 12K miles up...

 

[Logic 0]

Perfect time controll, I could controll everything I could invent everything and get the high score on kong.

 

[UberLemonBoy]

the power to have every power

 

[Phase_9]

The ability to alter reality. Duh

 

[Criquefreak]

The ability to force people to listen to logic, reason, and when needed: compromise. Although that would probably crush every government in the world in a single sit down.

 

[Mr. Grey]

The ability to create and destroy matter. My reasoning is that I can declare myself a god at that point.

And from what I understand, this is currently impossible.

how would you be a god, when you are not all-knowing, nor immortal?

I don't believe gods are immortal or all knowing.

If they were all knowing, the Egyptian Gods would have defeated the Jewish God quite handedly considering how many of Them outnumbered Him. And if they were immortal, then the loss of followers wouldn't have put them into a slumber and they still would be standing their ground. The only reason they're alive now is because museums and schools still talk about them... when they are truly forgotten will they die.

Well that's what I believe anyways and yeah... I spent way too much time trying to make sense of these things.

 

[Claymorez]

Power to stop time.

 

[Tharwen]

Omnipotence. By definition nothing is an obstacle.

Matter can be created and destroyed. It's energy that can't.

Whoops double post. Silly old me.

Able to spawn epic win in a can

only problem is your weakness is if you loose your can opener

 

[Aurora219]

Quicksave/load.
Do I win?
Please?????!

That would make life rather dull, wouldn't it.
As would any superpower I'd say. Only the fact that we can't obtain these qualities keeps them interesting at all.

But it is by far the most useful power.
Meteorite hits Earth? Load again.
Get hit by a train? Load again.
You see?

Nuh-uh. The meteorite would hit the Earth again. And again.

I concur with the Dr Manhattan style powers. He IS a god for all accounts and measures.

 

[fanklok]

X-ray vision, giggity giggity.

Or the power to talk to machines, I could be the Xbox whisperer and people would throw money at me to make their machine stop RRoDing.

 

[FightThePower]

Metamorphosis, probably.

Because if you needed to fly you could just turn into a bird. Need to run away? Turn into a cheetah. Easy.

That. Oh, but that's only because wolverines healing factor apparantly doesn't let you live forever. If it did, I'd pick that.

 

[twaddle]

Teleportation. Instead of walking the standard kilometer to my not-so-local bus stop, in the snow, uphill, I could just teleport wherever I want to go...

And I would so abuse it.

that would be fun untill samuel l jackson's crew came hunting for you arse

 

[Shawshanker]

The power to control time itself!

Rewind it,
stop it,
fastforward it.

You know you want to.

 

[Rblade]

time control. If you can stop, rewind and fast forward time infinitly. You will fail at NOTHING, will be unable to be beaten unless caught completely offguard

you would be a freaking genius based on the fact you'd read a book in what seemed secondes, and finished jobs withing minutes that would otherwise take days. You would quickly become the richest man ever, if you were equiped with a decend bit of business sense

the only thing is that controlling the ages of your molecules, so rewinding back for your cells, would need to be included to avoid dying in days
