¿Question #968?
Aiken Drum: If you could go back or forward to anytime but you were not allow coming back, would you go? if so, to which time period?

MartinWin: No.
Critical Mass: no
Fennic: To my birth
jokerjesterknave: Yes.
TiwazTyrsfist: Assuming I could take my wife with me, forward to a point at which humanity had Star Trek: Next Generation grade technology. Teleporters, FTL Spaceships, and Repicators. Holodecks are optional but prefered.
Kaworu17: To that point in time when I have my flying DeLorean.
IanthePez: if I had to travel alone, I wouldn't go. If I could take my family...well, I don't think I would go anywhere.
Robrob: Now
Randy Cox: Not if I couldn't take at least my family with me, preferrably everyone I know. And then, it would be nigh impossible to get the entire group to agree on a place and time, so let's just stick with the here-and-now, 'k?
rorshaq: i particularly like the 23rd century
Hendal: yes, do I get the knowledge I know now, that would so rock
seminole: yes back 5 years so i could be rich playing the stock market
cgund: I would go back to the Fall of 2002, and I would take my bird to the vet so that he could have been treated for a condition that turned out to be fatal.
geniuslegume: Yes; 1920s Chicago.
Ebon Wendigo: Nope
kurtis: No! If you know that you are able to come back to your own, know, safe time period than going back in time or forward to see 'things' of interest would by exciting. But every time and place has had there share of bad and good times, and of disaster and troubles, wars and famines. As to the future. Of course the great unknown future...where everything is going to be better (or Orwellian worse) has that excitment quality; but without the safety of coming 'home' I am not that adventuresome.
TwirlingTF: I would jump forward to this afternoon.
XanderF: Probably forward. It's a chance (will the world still exist?), but I feel the explorer nature...
fenwic: I think I'll stick to dealing with right about now.
Wibblenut: Yes, I would go back in time to the 1980's (the Golden Age of Gaming) with a list of all the winning horses and lottery numbers...
ZeroZilla: I would gladly go forward in time until after Armageddon. On the other hand, that would mean leaving a lot of people stuck here in this cruddy time period. Is there a way I can just accelerate the time-flow instead? Kinda like what Superman did, only in reverse?
DHEK: LOL... this is yet another question that has been asked SO MANY times... Well, if I can't come back... that's gonna make it really harder to decide. I'd have to think about it because I don't want to leave the people I care about behind... But then again I really want to see how the future's like... If I do decide to go, it'll be around 150 years in the future.
aleo09: no.
blindspot: Not alone, no.
POvidiusNaso: I wouldn't go. too chicken.
unixrevolution: If i could take Katie with me, i'd go to the 1960's and be part of all that Hot rodding and musclecar hooliganism.
diehard4life: 1950s in the United States
quardlepleen: No.
rickwar: the time right before I accidentally broke my cat's leg by trying to get it to not land on its feet (sadly enough, it did--just too hard)
KentuckyKid: No.
ZiggyZambo: No
greglios: I'd go forward a couple of hundred years.
scriptorum: I would go forward to this Thursday at noon so I could avoid the plane ride and skip right to lunch.
W Eric Martin: No.
hans4rd: yes anywhere anytime backwards, near a bookies please!
heavymetalhamster: I would go back in time and invent Windows a year before Bill Gates.
JonBen: yes, 5000 years into the future....
themagni: Maybe I'd go to lunchtime.
themightyhump: Nope. Quite happy here, thank you.
brainrob: No
vampywife: No. I'm happy with my life the way it is.
johngorno: Forward about ten years, when the cute fannish girls who appeared 5 years too late for me start getting divorced and will then be a suitable age.
WatchmanX2000: .
Loquutus: The past, because I already know the Super Bowl winners.
bigbadsteve: what if i went back to 20 years ago? would something suddenly happen to me when it turns 2005 again?
jellospike: QUESTION TOO CONFUSING... CAN'T MUSTER INTEREST TO READ IT AGAIN. NOW I GO TO SLEEP. GOOD NIGHT.
rawdawg: I would go back to when i lost my virginity to prostitute and do it again
Recneps: If I weren't allowed to come back, no I wouldn't.
DaGen: possibly the Distant Future.. but then again i might simply stay here..
MochaKimono: No.
Mike A: I doubt I'd go, but it would take much thought. It's tempting to go into the past (1) to fix some major things, like 9/11 and (2) make a bundle in investments.
EDS Teioh: what does this question relate to? Gaming? anything? I'd go with the early 80's then, I suppose.
Cavedog_pdx: 1990
sourwyrm: ancient rome perhaps
tipigi: When I turn 70 I'd like to go into the far future to find an age-reversing pill!
davedanger: break time
Lord_Prussian: Perhaps
mrbeankc: How far until they cure most disease?
puffinge: If I went back to the time when I was 10 years old, would there be 2 of me there then?
familygaming: Forward is too unpredictable, so I'd go back to the year 28 AD so I could meet and see Jesus.
BaSL: no
skrutsch: I probably wouldn't go. Scott hates time travel and I'm sure he wouldn't go with me.
Bearcat89: Non. N/A
bluebehir: Do you know? I might go back 10 or so years. Then I would buy things that would become investments.
mjwills: No
WasQ: future...always future
MisterCranky: I would go exactly 7 years into the future, so that I'd have just been declared legally dead. I always wondered what a hassle that would be to straighten out.
Ivan: Yes. 1 million years forwards to see what humanity would have achieved.
Belash: no
melissa: No. If I could come back, it would be a different matter entirely!
snoozefest: future
Nomadik: Yes. 1978. I could make tons of money on computer programming, I could see the best concerts, and just be when I was supposed to have lived.
heli: forward some significant amount of time
xlorp: Going back I could become unspeakably rich until I changed history. Going forward I could pretend to be a very insightful historian of the 21st century. Forward it is.
Johan: No, now is good
Cal Mac: Sure, back to the last big lottery draw, with the winning numbers firmly fixed in my memory.
Tim Synge: Well, presumably if I go back 20 years (to ensure that all those OOP games are available to me, I would get back here again - in 20 years time. But would I then be 42 or 62?
isolated: I wouldn't go. There's no time period that I would want to do more than visit anyway.
AlorielLelyn: I wouldn't go if I wasn't allowed to take my wife with me. If I was allowed to take her with me, I would go to a time period where there was no war. Very hard to find one of those... So probably the far future...
gnomehome: I'm pretty comfortable here.
tragicpoet: I would go, sometime in the future so I could live longer and play all the new Spiel winners
Debate: About one year into the past, after I had memorised the outcome of every major gambling opportunity I could find.
kennyb: to the restaurant at theend of the universe....
Jim_P: I'd go, as long as it was into the future... maybe 75 years
GuyHill: i quite like it here
Blackwind: no
thoia: About 15 years ago and do a few things differently.
viogression: Any, as long as I no longer have to deal with my ex-wife.
threlicus: Forward, about 100 years or so. Close enough that it'll still be comprehensible but with much better amenities (I hope!)
m_r_tyler: Not unless I could take my family with me.
TiNYTimIDFluffYBunnY: 2,000,000 AD
chaddyboy_2000: 2005.
onky: Future, about 10 yearts
P.O.G.G.: probably wouldn't go ... be difficult to fit in anywhere else and unless I could take some money or something I'd be broke and destitute. I'd hate to end up being a slave or something
Ryno8: Back to the eighties for me!
geberus: no
netfilterz: I'd go back to last week, and play on the lotto...
djlg: Go back just far enough to make some strategic investments.
BobDodgerBlue: Sure, about 15 years ago. I could make a fortune
Eric Haas: 4:23 pm
tardibean: the 50's - the music, the fashion, the everything.... nifty!
hibikir: I'd go back to the 80s, and use my l33t knowledge to rule the sofware world with an iron fist.
CortexBomb: I would, and probably forward at least 500 years. I really would like to see where people are going and what the views on this epoch are going to be by people in the future
skelebone: I'd probably go forward, but I don't know how far, but probably to a point where my money had gained a crapload of interest, like Fry on Futurama.
Shakar: Antiquity.
Flyspeck23: No, I wouldn't.
CDRodeffer: I'd be too scared
ynnen: Nope, I'd miss my wife and son too much.
ValJor: Yes, to the far future, to be able to travel to the stars and visit other civilizations
jttm: Probably the future. Assuming Star Trek is right.
dietevil: I'd go back a few years and undo some mistakes, but then who knows where I'd be now?
