This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

If you got one wish, what job would you rather be doing? Millionair does not count.

Mine is a Veggy Farmer. I love plants.

A singer/songwriter, like Robbie Williams or something. I'd love to get up on stage in front of thousands of people, act like a complete twat for two hours and have people love me and pay me millions of dollars for it. Then i'd retire when i'm no longer poular and live out my days living in a dingy castle with a stonking bank account, a gigabit connection and a sexy maid who comes around daily to polish the knob..ss of all the doors in my castle.

I'd rather be teaching ancient history to high school or college students. Don't really have a geographical preference. I'd like to be able to change civilizations from year to year. Maybe go on a rotation. Do Egypt one year, Mesopotamia the next, Greece after that, then Persia, India, China, etc., etc. and then go back to Egypt and start over again. That would be so much more fun for me.

Architect, or Marine Demolitions, or independent film-maker.

As long as I can remember, I love movies and especially the making of movies. I've always been fascinated by the process of making a movie. The script, casting, figuring out what is the max you can you do with the budget you have been given, locations, sets, visual effects, sounds, score, editing etc. I watch as many behind the scenes and making of documentaries as I possibly can...I love it I wouldn't want to be an actor, a screenwriter, a producer or any of that. No, I would love to be a director.

believe it or not...I love my job. I'd be a web designer - but I'd do it on my own terms....probably run my own company...specialise in entertainment clients like I used to. Get back into sound engineering and use the skill along with animation and video on the web.

I love my job...I just hate who I do it for.

Dunno, probably I'd be translating SciFi, but not sure if I wouldn't get bored. Anyway, some job with nobody sitting on my head and no need to communicate with endless customers.

It's better to be a worldwide known drunkard than an anonymous alcoholic!

What would I rather be doing.....
Thats a tough one. I think a traveller suits me, be at all places and not having to worry about any thing, live off the land... That sort of stuff.

If you mean a profession, then I think I would like to be a Doctor, anatomy has allways fascinated me.

That's the other thing I rather be doing: Travelling.

I would love to be able to just go to different countries and spend loads of time in each one getting to know the culture, history and sights in each. For that, I would need loads of money so I'd have to win a lottery or something, I guess.

you only need to travel to Wolstanton, it contains everything anyone could ever want. 2 chip shops, 3 pubs, a working mens club, a supermarket, 2 off-licences, 3 curry houses, and a petrol station. Closed on Thursdays.

Post Thu Feb 12, 2004 7:45 am

forgot about my other ideal job btw photographer (and i dont mean landscapes or for the financial times)

Dam - good question.


Hmm - well several - from real to ridiculous.


1) Rock star - much akin to Mustang, (but a guitarist instead of poncy singer) - but i want some cannons and a moat for my castle.....and a hareem...

2) Fast jet pilot - yep - i am 6'4", and although i told the airforce that i would never eject, so it won't matter that my knees would get removed, they then told me that hayfeaver rules me out too. Now i have short sight - bu*ger

3) Rocket Scientist/demolitions.
Yep - I love explosives with a passion, and rockets fascinate me - well, trying to make them does anyway. I really wanted to join Starchaser team when i was a teenager and heavily into my pyro days. I also wanted to work in buildings demolition - but the "engineering degree rather than chemsitry" kinda puts a crimp in my plans. Apparently they like to use minimal explosives and knowledge of stress etc etc to bring them down - personally, i would just add a few extra pounds of syntex and det cord instead.
