Mega Millions - are you playing?

[blurry89]

I'm part of an office pool, and I snagged my own tickets, because f*** those guys.

Ladies and Gentlemen...

a lawyer.

[FoogooFish]

If I win, I'mma hire Cornuto to set up my trust and go pick up my winnings, because I sure as heck don't want to be in the public eye!

Also, since I know HM is reading... I am going to adopt FIFTY CATS!

Edit: and keep them at this fenced-in Nyssis house.

[Doubtful]

A nice house on the coast, a sailing yacht (plus a laser dinghy for the funs) and a couple of horses.

Then I'd enrole in a couple of good courses and start up a games company and try to bag a license for setting an rpg game in China Mieville's Bas Lag (perdido st station, the scar, etc).

[Chiangtao]

I'd pay off my wife's college debt first and sink a bunch into retirement savings. Then I'd buy Baltimore Ravens season tickets for the next five years. Then a couple of sea kayaks for the bay. Then finally, take some very nice trips to exotic places I've always wanted to go but could never afford... like a Discoverer channel cruise to the North Pole or something.

If there was anything left over, I'd buy Blurry some tongue cleaner. And R3 some mojito-flavored boots.

[Saulus]

Don't worry, Bossman. I'll plunk a few thou towards the server funds if I win, and then you'll be happy!

Sweet I think the server needs more beer.

[Redjack]

I would bribe Saulus, (he can name his price) so that my characters always win and get all the chicks. Perm Dain.
Buy a dodge viper. Buy a Island and invite my internet friends to come party, on the house.

[Dragor]

I would use the funds to advance my paranoia

[Dave Fritz]

I wish I could remember who it was that characterized playing government lotteries (see Saulus' comment) as a voluntary tax on stupidity. It's too good a line not to share.

However ... if I did play and win, I like several things suggested already, especially more beer for the server (and cash wouldn't go amiss either), but something not mentioned yet - I'd become a big fan of Butterfield and Robinson. Google them to see what I mean. Now that's traveling! Oh, and time on the Canadian West Coast, mostly Vancouver Island, doing carving.

[Thief Of Navarre]

I'd take private piano tutoring. Probably do Taekwondo all the time (within reason) and play on Sundren alot more of course. Small house in the country sounds nice; lots of forestland nearby to walk in... perhaps north wales or the lake district, maybe even...Abroad? (duh duh duh!)
With £462m Id also pay off all your mortgages, cause whats a few mill to a god eh?

[Silas North]

My brother and I would buy a 72 or V74 Motoryacht, mount a high-pressure tennis ball cannon on the back and shoot people on the lake dock with it while playing the old "American Gladiators" TV theme on a couple of concert subwoofer speakers.

That would of course be AFTER buying my parents, grandparents, and other relatives I liked their dream houses. Then I would take a trip or two to see some particular long-distance friends.

And of course fireworks... tons and TONS of fireworks.

[Thief Of Navarre]

And of course fireworks... tons and TONS of fireworks.

shweet!

[Doubtful]

Thinking about it a bit more... I'd love to develop a modular rpg system based on Pathfinder, WHFRP or Bas Lag, oriented toward the modding community and persistent worlds in particular.

The game itself would need to be free, but with a revenue model based on hats.

[Kitsunestume]

The game itself would need to be free, but with a revenue model based on hats.

I would need to win the lottery to afford to play Doubt's RPG.
I don't know what sort of cost it will be per hat, but I'll be getting a lot of them.

[FoogooFish]

The drawing was last night, and three winning tickets were sold. Three people get to split $640 million, which is still a rather nice haul. Sadly, I was not one of those three people.

[Seheren]

If I had won, I would have taken my millions in 100's, built an underground lair, and taken over the world... Or started the International Bank of Evil.. Perhaps both simultaneously...
