Return of a legend...

Remember me? I have been gone sometime. But i'm back, and this time i'm utterly insane.

For my first topic, What do you think would be the best way to take over the world? From such possibilities as economic takeover, to a mass army wiping over all. The choice is yours.

My choice is manipulation. Turn the people to your favour with fear and empty promises. Slowly turn their trust for you, until they want you to lead.

Legends are generally noted so after the fact. That you're here right now is a strong suggestion that you are not a legend.

My method for taking over the world is quite simple. Control the Dollar and you control the West. A seizure of the world's major multinational corporations in secret (whether by force or by legal acquisition) followed by an election to any position of government and the yielding of these corporations to the state will result in supreme power at your fingertips.

Genetic reprogramming via nanites.

It would allow a person...say a clown... to convert the entire population of the earth into uncontrollable mud-loving groin kicking lovable wackos within a matter of weeks.

But of course, that's just speculation. Oh, and welcome back. :)

Hi TIN.


Interesting you should mention it, I just got back from taking a dump and finished reading a book called 'how to take over the world' by a guy who failed a coup attempt on some random island in the Indian Ocean.

Sry, it was 'How to rule the world' by Andre de Guillaume. http://www.ipgbook.com/showbook.cfm?bookid=1556525877. I'm still looking for information on these supposed 'Cashman Islands.' They don't exist until I find them.

How to take over the world? Simple. Make, or steal, a very large amount of money. Send a build team to the moon. Build a big gun there. Drop rocks on anyone who disagrees with you.

Helooo world dictatorship.

That's a good book. I have that book (christmas present a few years ago).

The easiest way to take over the world would be through economic manipulation via a company (do not name yourself) leading to political manipulation of facts. Once you have someones money they become indebted to you, but they don't like you. You then use political manipulation, using your real name, to force that company to release their funds, so people like and support you.
You then have control over their minds and their pockets, what more control do you need?
Oh, and build an army of giant transforming war machines, just incase someone realises what's going on and you need to maintain power through force.

What the hell good is that?!? It's like reading a cookbook written by Gandhi. If you want to know how to take over the world, read a book by someone who has done it. Like Bill Gates. :)

Luckily he relates more to the ideas of other people rather than his own. He then explains why his own failed at the end. Sadly from the sounds of it, I'm too nice to do all the murdering required to get to the top.

Never listen to a failure. Especially when it comes to world domination.

hmmm, it claims he tried his coup in the 'cashman islands' but googling "Cashman islands" only brings up links regarding the book.

All hail the TIN. The TIN hath returned. But did he bring brownies?

Fail. There's such thing as a living legend. I think.

Good idea. Me versus a person daft enough to form a plan for world domination, then announce it on the internet. The smart money is on me.

The revived Pictish nation will not merely destroy you, it will change reality so that you never existed in the first place.

ohwait, I actually remember. It wasn't a few days ago >>

You got mentioned in a few threads, and thusly an apparition appeared.

I mean, seriously, be afraid anyway. I'm closer than you think.... *coughhackcackle*

But are they really legends? "Living legends" are people linked to the appropriate legends of history rather than personal embodiments of those legends; the legend itself is something that has already been.

ZOMG! I feel like a noob again. Cat Tribes, TIN...Y'all were just around in me noobing days.

Incidentally, I always figure the only way to rule the world publicly would be superficially.

My plans generally involve an Antarctic base and penguin armies, preferably laser equipped.

I don't want to rule this world. It's already fucked beyond redemption. I want to start my own new one.

Anyway, welcome back TIN. Now if we could get Lasc to make a reappearance.
