id software, Epic, EA, Dice, Microsoft, Red Storm, Valve, THQ, Activision, Sierra, etc., then I'd rid them of the corporate BS level, and combine all the raw talent together to make the most awesome game in the universe and distribute it for free.

i dont think you'd be able to maintain all of those companies and their workers if you didnt charge for the game. =\

Just buy a quantum computer that ill make with my 3 quadrillion, and hack all of those companies and take all their ideas/developments.

I'd just invest it and give them salaries off of the interest.

Edit: Invest it in other companies before I bought these out, as their stocks would likely go up. ;)

I would purchase a small army to kill every single one of the people sueing. These morons should understand that you choose to live in an area where this could happen. Choice is yours. It's not the Military or federal governments job to protect your property from mother nature. Your own common sense could do that for you. I would like to see everyone who has ever lost a house because of a tornado sue the government for not blocking it or not giving them enough notice to move their house.

I'd start with this...
http://neversealand.downtothesea.org/2007/11/30/vatu-vara-for-sale/

This is my dream land!!!

Then I would finance the research and cultivation of super-weed for personal consumption.

...and buy lots of big expensive toys (submarines, ships, my own interwebs, etc...)

I would invest and stash enough to set multiple generations of my family up for life then give the rest to organization(s) that help and treat serious and terminally ill children.

None of you have even made a dent in 3 quadrillion so far.

 3,000,000,000,000,000 = 10 million, 100 million times

You could buy every company all of you have listed here, produce everything for free, pay extremely high salaries, and stay in business for years and years (probably more than 20).

If each company cost 1 billion dollars you could buy 1 million of them.

Realize the size of the load man...big money!!!

I'd buy some friends, and give jitspoe a billion dollars to make the world's best paintball game, then spend another nine billion buying tasers and pepper spray to make sure he keeps pace. I'd then buy all america and russia's missiles, fill them with banknotes and launch them at randomly selected countries. The rest I would fritter away paying MaDMaN's bail and legal fees every 2 weeks. Then I'd pay y00tz to do stuff instead of wasting time on this so-called 'job' nonsense.

I'd buy every paintball company in the world and make them build me and 6 friends a completely insane gun setup that would be like 100 bps, like 30000 shots with a 72/4500 HPA tank, and a loader that could feed fast enough for it, then enter ourselves in every paintball tourney around the US and Canada, winning very small amounts of money (25k for the first place team in an NPPL is nothing...) and then use a pump gun in said tournaments for fun.



Or just donate... that's cool too.

You'd have to pay off the refs, too, as you're not allowed to shoot more than 13 or 15 balls per second (forget what it is now - I think they changed it).

The 15 bps is a cap for ramping in certain leagues, not the NPPL like I mentioned, as ramping isn't even allowed in the NPPL. I never said I'd be using a ramping board.
