First of all, this giveaway would not be possible without the generosity of ashwald. So please say thanks to this wonderful person!

The other day, while I was struggling to write a few sentences in English, I began to think how great that would be to have a piece of machinery as the one used in the Matrix movies to learn new skills. One second and: "I know Kung-Fu... err... English". So...

... TO PARTICIPATE, tell me what gadget, appliance or machinery that you've found in a sci-fi movie or book you'd like to own and what would you do with it (humorous responses highly appreciated).

PRIZES:
-- Divine Divinity
-- A single code for the next 3 Interplay games: Stonekeep + Evolva + Jagged Alliance 2 Unfinished Business

RULES:
1. You must have joined BEFORE October 2012 (sorry to legit new members, this is due to scammer(s) creating multiple accounts).
2. You can enter for one of the prizes (specify which one) or the two of them (specify the order). If you don't choose any prize(s) in your post, I'll assume that you don't want to enter.
3. Random.org, one prize for winner, re-giftting or trading are allowed.
4. The giveaway will last probably until next Monday or Tuesday.

I would like to dedicate the giveaway, as usual, to all those of you who make this community a friendly and warming place to stay. Thanks to all of you! :)

PS: If you see this thread is lost in the depths of the forum, I really would appreciate a small BUMP to it! ;)

Ya, was on the Phone, And I fixed it
In for Stonekeep + Evolva + Jagged Alliance 2 Unfinished Business .


As for the device... Hmmm... I'd like to have a Molecular Disruption Device like in Orson Scott Card's "Ender's Game". I'd use it to blow up Pluto, and be hailed as a hero for finally ending the "Is it/Isn't it a planet" controversy.
Thanks for the giveaway!

I'll enter for the interplay stuff.

I think it'd have to be the memory wipe gizmo from men in black - useful in so many ways on a day to day basis that I can't even begin to elaborate on what I'd do with it other than; "NO GOOD!"

Thanks, te_lanus! I'm a perfectionist kind of guy, I'm afraid... :D

Not in, but +1 for the idea... and bump! :)
Thx for the opportunity!

im in for

Divine Divinity

The Bathroom Buddy from Gremlins!!! XD
with that i can brush my teeth in my car when im running in office
Ooh, gladly.
The Interplay pack, pretty please. <3

Not strictly a piece of tech, but there's this eerie world/dimention/city in Jacek Dukaj's The Plunderer's Daughter (loosely translated title, there's no English version as far as I'm aware) which is basically a compressed version of every city on Earth (and other worlds). That would make sightseeing much less of a pain without all the commute. :P
In for any game
1st Divine Divinity
2nd Stonekeep + Evolva + Jagged Alliance 2 Unfinished Business
I would want the hand phone from the new total recall movie. Only problem i could see with it if you wanted to have some "private time" what would happen when someone called you

Not in but want to say thank you to ashwald and Thespian* ! :-)
Groovy...

So I definitely want the IT-O Interrogator (the Interogation Bot) that Darth Vader uses on Princess Leia to get the coordinates of the not so hidden, not so rebellious headquarter base.

What I want to do with it?
Actually nothing really, it just has to follow me around looking cool and intimidating.

Just imagine,
you have an appointment with your boss, and while you sit in his office discussing your upcoming promotion the IT-O floating silently on an eye level, pointing his syringes and nasty pointy things at your boss.

Other than that, torturing sexy rebels is always a great past time, so I wouldn't oppose doing that if the opportunity shows itself. :D

Oh and I'm in for, well any game mentioned above and compatible with my IT-O OS.

1) The next 3 Interplay games: Stonekeep + Evolva + Jagged Alliance 2 Unfinished Business would be my first choice but it' doesn't really matter much...
2) Divine Divinity is on an extraordinary well fought 2nd place.

And device I would like to have: that translator fish from Hitchhikers Guide. Would be fun to have her.

Thanks!
