Thinking of Building/buying Time Machine

[Jiggalopuff]

Hai Guyz,

 

I watched a video of Lunar on youtube, and began to miss my childhood. I practically cried myself to sleep two nights in a row, and missed a day of work. Is there a way to acquire a time machine, or do I need to build my own?

Unfortunately, as to buying (or even stealing) a working time machine, It seems that anytime (bad pun :pinch: ) someone actually manages to get one to work, they go back in time and do something that changes time enough so that they don't get it to work. :teehee:

 

Also, the Flux Capacitor required is no longer available from the manufacturer. In fact, the manufacturer seems to no longer have existed in this time line. Making the flux capacitor not only impossible to buy, but... improbable. :blink:

 

BTW, I moved this into the off topic section, where we keep all of the improbable topics.

But if the person went back in time and changed things so that he wouldn't go back in time, wouldn't that make him NOT go back in time and change the stuff, and therefore he would get the time machine to work? And would getting the time machine to work make him change stuff so that he couldn't get it to work again?

@Nysaba: I think you have grasped the essence of it. :tongue:

 

It's called a paradox. Not to be confused with a pairofDocs, which is something quite different. :whistling:

[Nysba]

Yes, I know what a paradox.

 

But what I really want to know is what actually would happen in this situation...

You want to know? Alright, have my time machine and see first hand! :P

[Nysba]

But will you trust a sheep with your invention? :ermm:

[CommanderCrazy]

Its mass produced. Go ahead, take one.

Off-topic, what is with all the anti-sheep sentiment in this forum? Did any of the TES games even have sheep? If I did have a time machine, I would try to talk some sense into Sega into making a console that doesn't suck.
