Well, since I just noticed that I am a magical genie, I am starting this thread. The rules:
1. Wish for anything to see if the Magical Genies will grant it!
[size=0]2. DO NOT wish for anything that cannot conceivably be granted via the Internet.
3. The Magical Genies reserve the right to refuse service to anyone.
4. Void where prohibited.
5. Side effects include insanity.
6. By posting in this thread you acknowledge that you will not sue the genies for any reason ever. Even if they run over your dog, total your car, or commit adultery with your significant other.[/size]
Hmmm...tough one. I'm going to have to give some huge thought to my first wish... :P Of course, the first thing I'd wish for can't be conceivably granted through the internet XB
I wish I had a significant other than the genies could commit adultry with. :D
*wishes for a non-insanity inducing Wabbajack*
*Wishes Questie would reveal his height*
wishes, hopes, prays that 2moro goes well. if not...then oh no :'( goodbye uni!
I think we're getting a bit away from "things that can conceivably be granted over the Internet". ;)
Of course, all my wishes are impossible ones even in real life, anyway. Like wishing I actually had some kind of creative talent. :P
Peace & Luv, Liz
QuoteI think we're getting a bit away from "things that can conceivably be granted over the Internet".
i dont really think wishes can be granted anyway ;-D its the way you deal with ur own life...altho sometimes wishes can come true, just ask cinderella or snow white...i wish i had an echoy well altho snow whites prince looked a bit like a woman...wouldnt mind having prince eric or aldin tho :D[/glow]
Disney did well with Prince Eric! Aladdin was nice, but I felt that it was wrong of him to continue to deceive Jasmine like that. My theory--relationships based on lies only work in fairy tales...oh wait...Aladdin IS a fairy tale!
Personally, I'd rather marry the court minstrel. <3
Or I could marry the court jester, don a jingly hat of my own, and we'd make a smashingly bizarre duo! XD
Peace & Luv, Liz
I wish that I am 16!!
/me wonders if his wish could be conceivably be granted via the Internet.
I dunno, B'rrr... the mods could always adjust your member profile age. ;)
Peace & Luv, Liz
hahahaha, well ....i can change that too.... but it won't make me 16 again :-\ :S
I wish for.... XD
A new 3D Workstation, with QUAD 850 Opterons, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD Space in a SATA RAID5 setup, a 3DLabs Wildcat Realizm 800, 3 Seamless 19" LCD's with 16ms Responce Times, Dual layer DVD burner, a sexy Case and finaly, KQ9 to play on it.
:lovegoggles:
I hope Genie is rich, cause out of interest, I just worked out how much that system would cost.
$30,328 Aussie Dollars
about $23,000 US
I want!
:lovegoggles:
Hmmm...I wonder why Rob wants to be 16... :P

:lovegoggles:
What?
Only a 19" LCD monitor? :devil:
Alright, I have decided to grant a few wishes here:
POOF!
A non-insanity inducing WabbaJack for LN! HUZZAH!
Uhm, I'm afraid I don't actually *know* my height, but I can take a guess...
POOF!
5'7"ish. Maybe.
Uhm, Rob, I'm afraid the best I can do is make you *feel* 16.
POOF!
Rob's voice now cracks when we talks to females, and he has lots of homework, is eager to drive, AND is nervous about college! :P
I can't grant any other wishes, I'm sorry.
Thanks Q.
After a week or so, we'll know if the "non-insanity inducing" part works. ;D
hang on...if some of us are genies too...cant we grant our own wishes
Hey, when I turned LN into a pumpkin, I never said it was an insane one! :P
I think the insanity was there all along. XD

I don't think so. In all the stories I've read, they've always been imprisoned by their lamps. :-\ If they could grant their own wishes, getting outta there would be the first thing they'd wish for! ;P

I think the missed the '3 SEAMLESS...' part...
Here ya go! :D As if you wouldn't want this!?

EDIT: And you do realise that a 19" LCD has the same screen area as a 21"CRT? ;P
OMG! :smitten: <3
I hope your desk is big enough! :D
You guys are right, I'm not the only genie. We can all grant wishes--just not our own. Too bad, huh?
Doesn't bother me.
I have my enhanced Wabbajack! :suffer:
oh well never mind. i forgot all about the lessons aladin taught me neil- never trust men with long chins and a parrot, street urc hins are usually very sexy (even if they are a cartoon), genies cant grant their own wishes...
i seem to be serving every1 else's wishes atm so why not become an official genie...sigh
*hands Kimmie her magic lamp*
Now you can grant wishes to anyone who rubs it :P
any1 wanna rub my curvy lamp ;)
IM A GENIE IN A BOTTLE U GOTTA RUB ME THE RIGHT WAY... ;) ahem...
/me decides not to rub Kimmie's lamp
:suffer: that would be wise cat ;)
LOL! ;D
Well, Q is a Genie and you are a Genie so you both can grant each other's wishes! XD

Yay, I got my wish!! ;D
Darn, I should have asked for something bigger :P
a wish im making for myself right now- thats the conversation i just had and the ideas that were expressed are not just dreams
Quote from: Grundy on August 20, 2004, 06:32:37 PMI think the missed the '3 SEAMLESS...' part...
I'll confess I missed that part, but that way they're too wide. I'd rather have it a bit bigger, that way it doesn't get that wide.
Quote from: Grundy on August 20, 2004, 06:32:37 PMEDIT: And you do realise that a 19" LCD has the same screen area as a 21"CRT? ;P
Why else do ya think I bought a 17 inch LCD to replace my 17 inch CRT? :scholar:
CC: To a mere mortal, that would be too wide. However, Grundy is an artist, and artists can never have enough screen space. ;)
Personally, I wouldn't get too large a monitor, simply because I'd run into a problem of my eyesight capabilities clashing with the teeny size of things at higher resolutions.
Peace & Luv, Liz
I hope another genie can grant these wishes for me..
I wish more people on these forums had YIM and came on it more often because MSN WANTS TO EAT MY FACE!! ;'(
I wish someone would reveal the secret smileys to me! I know they're there!
Oh, and now....I shall try to grant Kimmie's wish (but I might need more details)..
POOF!
.....did it work?
*makes more people on forum login to YIM*
Wish granted.
*makes another one of Q's wishes come true*
Smilies (http://www.postudios.com/blog/forum/smilies/)
(http://www.postudios.com/blog/forum/smilies/stars.gif)
I'd rather wish for more people on the forum to use IRC. ;)
Peace & Luv, Liz
What IRC channel?
**Wishes for a copy of Homeworld 2**
Failing that **wishes for a 100 more posts**
Since you're an Oracle, I guess you know that you're not going to get Homeworld2 from Q. ::)
Why do you think I threw in the "100 post" thing ;)
Louisiana: I'm used to using Freenode, since it's the home of #sq, plus a bunch of channels for various fangame and open-source projects.
Peace & Luv, Liz
Give me the details, and I'll start going there.
Well, I don't go to #sq anymore (and nobody else I know uses IRC much), but if you like:
http://freenode.net/
Actually, one KQ9 fan registered #kq9 there a while back, but I don't know if it might have been de-registered due to non-use.
Peace & Luv, Liz
I refuse to grant Jeysie's wish until she gets on YIM! Or at LEAST AIM on a regular basis!
And I'm afraid I can't give Fatali his Homeworld2. I could give him homework as consilation. :angel:
And the best I can do for Fatali's other wish is this:
POOF!
Lots of threads for you to reply to! XB
Oh wow... look at my post count! I just gained another post! You did grant my 'hundred post' wish! (just, I might have to wait a while for those "wish posts" to trickle in ;) )
Thanks so much, Guys! 8)

IIRC, I've got ICQ, AIM and MSN. However, I haven't configured AIM yet in Kopete... there, done. 8)
*wishes for Longest Journey 3 to be out already*
