* GIVEAWAY CLOSED *

You're suddenly awaken in the middle of the night because of a high-pitch whine. You see a shining silver bracelet hovering over you. Before you can react, the bracelet opens, place itself in your left wrist and closes. A startling but harmless current crosses your body. In that moment you learn several things:
- the bracelet is a highly advanced time machine portable device, tuned to you in advance. Only you are able to perceive their existence.
- the device can be used only once. It'll transport you to the time and location of your choice (by a mental command), where you can stay a maximum of six months, after which you'll return to your own time, just a microsecond after leaving. Then it'll vanish to its own time.
- if you choose to stay in your destination (or just met a premature demise there), the device will vanish inmediately.

To enter the giveaway, just tell me what time and location you'd choose and what you'd do there. ;)

Finally, I'd like to dedicate the giveaway, as usual, to all those of you who make this community a friendly and warming place to stay. Heartfelt thanks to all of you! :)

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

Don't met the requirements but +1 and thank you :)

In for Metro 2033 and Krunch. Thank you soo much!!

I'll Enter for Total Annihilation: Commander Pack

I'd go back to 1500BC, in the Middle East especially Canaan. I'd travel around exploring the places around Canaan, study their religion a little, and if there is time go down to Egypt and meet the Pharaohs

Good luck on the contest, will post something later, there are 2 desura games i don't have :p

Keep posting in the forum and you'll be able to enter my next GAs.;) An interesting election. I love reading History and have so many favorite times and locations that I'd be in real trouble if I had to answer my own question. :D

Traveling to other countries in ancient times could take a huge amount of time, so I've raised the maximum stay to six months. ;) That's a first. :p

+1 and thank you, sir. (and a big thank you to the generous donors!)

In for MunkiSiren. MS, please specify the games you're interested in.

My answer: Hard call, very hard call. But just for the hell of it--an unknown time, an unknown place. I would want to know what the downfall of man was. What will bring us to our end and will another race rise in our place? After all, I hate an unfinished story.

Awww that is so nice!! I've never had anyone do this for me before, thank you very much :) +1

I am entering for Patrician 4 + DLC :)

Answer of the question:

I am not sure, but there are two (quite different) possibilities.

1. I would trvel back in time for about 20 years and help myself making better decisions in my life. I wouldnt do the lazy money trick where you know the outcome beforehand, i would just help myself making the carreer choices of my dreams.

2. Since i am living a good life anyway, i would like to see gladiator battles in ancient rome. I dont have any bloodlust, but i know that contrary to belief, most gladiators survived anyway and lived a good life.

I know you're a generous giver and you met the requirements. The rules specifically allow re-gifting, so if you win, I'll send the prize to MunkiSiren.

But please, edit your entry to say you're in (I'm an absentminded guy, don't wish to do a mistake while preparing the list of participants). :D

Also, it's possible to enter for several or all of the games, so if you see something you'd like for yourself, please add it to your own entry. ;) Morlocks will be really pleased with your visit... ;)

In for Patrician IV + Rise of a Dynasty DLC.



To the times of the Roman Empire in Rome. Be a Gladiator, fight in the Colosseum.

Yeah, the members of this Community are awesome, and jdsiege is one of them. :)

Please, edit your original entry with the games you'd want. ;)

Love your giveaways, always make for interesting reading.

Not in, but thanks Thespian* as well as ISC, lugum and Robette.

I'd probably go back to the mid 50s and visit Cuba. It would be nice to see it in its glory. And then sit on a beach and sip some Cuba Libre :)
Oh I've almost forgot. I'd like to be in for Total Annihilation if I may.
Thanks Thespian*, ISC, lugum, lemuria and Robette... did I forget anyone? :)

UPDATE: jdsiege (thank you very much, mate!) have donated more games for future giveaways! :)
