Apart from some of the TV programs and suchlike - are these all compatible? Change some of the earlier events and (at least some of) the later events would not have happened. 86.146.100.49 (talk) 09:23, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

And where's the preventing of 9/11? Chair tater (talk) 04:34, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
Probably would be difficult to prevent the deaths of Presley and Michael Jackson (and Lincoln, according to some 'retrospective health analysts' might have had serious, possibly fatal heart problems).
Don't step on any butterflies in the process. 86.146.100.22 (talk) 10:00, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

IP address, there's a headnote concerning that on the top. Chair tater, preventing Al-Qaeda is on the list. —Bigljbigl (talk/stalk) 23:35, 6 August 2017 (UTC)


Organisation[edit]

Given the length of the list perhaps there could be a rough division (time period, 'films and TV' etc). 86.146.100.21 (talk) 10:15, 1 August 2017 (UTC)

Too lazy. —вιgℓʝвιgℓ (ᴛᴀʟᴋ/sᴛᴀʟᴋ) 15:19, 16 September 2017 (UTC)

Stuff to add[edit]

  • Get Portal 3 released
  • Prevent the obnoxious goat joke on this wiki

How dare you insult the goats! —вιgℓʝвιgℓ (ᴛᴀʟᴋ/sᴛᴀʟᴋ) 15:19, 16 September 2017 (UTC)

And how, pray tell, would you have done all of this?[edit]

Such as, for example, preventing the 1804 Haiti Massacre, or getting Aqua Teen Hunger Force renewed for season 12 onwards by Adult Swim? --101.181.57.232 (talk) 01:41, 6 September 2017 (UTC)

The guy with the time machine can prevent your existence. —(((вιgℓʝвιgℓ))) (ᴛᴀʟᴋ/sᴛᴀʟᴋ) 00:05, 7 September 2017 (UTC)

PNGs are capable of displaying animation[edit]

It's just that many browsers and software cannot display animated PNG. Actually here's a link to an example of animated PNG.ClickerClock (talk) 03:26, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

Time Machine and the Basilisk[edit]

If someone went back and stopped Roko's Basilisk being described, would it (a) prevent a lot of annoyance and/or (b) make the RB more likely to occur - as we would not know it is theoretically possible and can take preventative action? Anna Livia (talk) 16:15, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

Time Machine Abuse[edit]

If it were me I would find a way to mess up history. Discover everything before the person who originally discovered it does, and find a way to make myself wealthy enough so I don't have to work (not too rich though). Then when I'm done having fun I would destroy all the evidence before the FBI get it's hands on my machine, move to some other country and change my name and ID.Rimuru Da NinjaRimuru Slime.png 02:49, 1 April 2018 (UTC)
