You have been given $50,000 USD by...

[Macgyvercas]

If by Jack Thompson, you mean Penny Arcade.

since Jack thompson won't.

It's a hypothetical situation. Just run with it

Besides, Penny Arcade already did the whole "donation to charity by Jack Thompson" thing.

I was actually unaware of that. I don't read PA that much (I stick to XKCD)

 

[Kuilui]

Pay off what i currently owe in tuition. Followed by buying a car then I don't know put the rest in the bank I suppose.

 

[The Lugz]

buy ps3's and build a supercomputer array then rent it out, for science!

 

[pspman45]

All of it to Riot Games so they can get League of Legends back online. It doesn't take 5 damn hours to fix a matchmaking issue.

True dat
their servers are down too much...

 

[Charli]

Off to College I go. Any left over money goes toward video games. Just because it's Jacko.

 

[Callate]

My first thought was "Five hundred copies of Rapelay", but that's a little puerile to put it mildly.

So I think big contributions to the ACLU, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Video Game Voters Network, and Comic Book Legal Defense Fund would be in order. Put the rest into my daughter's college fund.

[Drakmorg]

Hmmm, let's see...

1) Enough non-perishable food and bottled water to last for six months
2) A rifle and a sidearm, with several clips worth of ammo for each
3) Several forms of falsified identification (passports, drivers license, etc)
4) Maps of every country in the western hemisphere
5) at least 30 gallons gas placed in cans
6) $20,000 in gold
7) A box big enough to fit all of the above

Anything that's left over I'll just place in a savings account.

Hmmmmmm, how much does a hitman cost?

 

[evilartist]

Without a second though, it would be for school funds and living. Buying games to piss Jack off would be the last thing I consider.

 

[Wushu Panda]

I would travel to a few places I haven't been before but always wanted. And invest to make more and do it again.

What exactly are you planning to do, and can I get in on it?

 

[orangeapples]

pay off college loans...

 

[Super Toast]

Build a godlike gaming computer and give the rest to my family to pay the bills and invest.

 

[darthzew]

I would give ten thousand dollars to my grandmother, ten thousand to my uncle. They're both in need of money right now. I would keep five thousand for myself. The rest, I would donate to Child's Play. It just seems like the right place.

 

[Electric_Sunshine]

Kickaxe PC, $1000 in Steam Wallet, a nice amp (Vox AC30 or Fender Hotrod 3, maybe a Blues Jr), a Fender American Standard Stratocaster (white or creme), Fender American Standard Telecaster (caramel), Gretsch Double Cutaway Electromatic. That all together would cost me about $7000.

The other $43,000 - Send my friends who'd like to go to Japan, to Japan. When they come back we'd go to America and have fun over there.

Anything left over to be spent on gifts.

How did you find out about the bomb!?

 

[blankedboy]

I thought it was from the Vice President of Nigeria.

Anyway, I'd gift a shitload of Steam games, buy like 3 (saira, night sky, aquaria, maybe another), give away a bunch, and keep maybe a couple thousand or so.

 

[Slaanax]

To the bank! Then once I finish school a Down Payment on a house!

 

[FalloutJack]

Guns, ammo, and permits for every one of them. "Yes, officer. I am indeed in lawful possession of this M134D-H Gatling Gun."

Also, ten-foot-tall walls for the zombies.
