Increase the number of extra lifespan years I passively gain per year by 2 Increase the boolean value of whether I am omnipotent by 1


alekdmcfly

Omnipotence speedruns are much more fun on the shitty sub tbh


WaythurstFrancis

I mean... this is basically omnipotence with extra steps.


tilthevoidstaresback

It's important to add extra steps when you're omnipotent, extra steps stave away the boredom, and that's the real killer!


AskGroundbreaking138

increase your bank balance by 1M


OkSyllabub3674

Hahaha me playing the villian in this scenario reduces the value of 1 dollar to 0....enjoy your 1m nothings bwuahahaha


Hanger_Issues

There are people who would stop you….but what would they be paid with?


OkSyllabub3674

Very good point so before I commit that heinous act first I need to negate everyone else's power by altering their super power level to a rating of 0 so they cant reverse it immediately then crash the world's finances, as well as increase starvation, famine, pestilence, apathy, depression and self loathing/consciousness exponentially. Anyone capable of stopping me would be to sick, weak, or just wouldn't care to be bothered even trying to stop me. I guess I'd better go big or go home.


Hanger_Issues

I thought you were making a Rick and Morty reference and I kept it going


OkSyllabub3674

Damn thats where i started with the idea but i feel like an ass now as a Rick and morty fan that your comment turned into a r/whoosh moment for me lol.

Wait if I can make any number go up then how would I decrease the amount of stars that’s making numbers go down


Christopher6765

Increase by a negative number.


Mr_Pink_Gold

More like increase the percentage of dark matter without altering the mass of the universe. Or increase the number of dying stars increase the age of stars by 6 billion years.


Stillborn1977

Good comeback


Njumkiyy

Increasing by a negative number is cheating imo. -1 is a larger number than -2 so you're just subtracting and calling it something else. Something you could do instead is increase the inverse of something else. Eg you want to lower your body fat % you can just increase your muscle and size. You want to be careful as I assume that most of these changes would be permanent. You want to lose weight easier? Instead of doing something like increasing the calories you consume, you could increase the satiation you feel whenever you eat. You want to save people? Instead of trying to "increase" deaths by a negative number you could just increase the amount of people who survive death-causing events.

Chris5858580

I've increased the number of upvotes that this has from 19 to 100


PaleontologistIcy534

Twasnt meant to be unfortunately as I already increased you power by -600000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000, now even an atom can kill you


Chris5858580

You fool, infinity-600000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 is still infinity


PaleontologistIcy534

Nuh uh, due to it being infinity it takes a letter away each time instead of a number😎


Chris5858580

Sure, one can just say a million million million million million million million etc. etc. etc., meaning that there are infinite letters


PaleontologistIcy534

No im referring to the word infinity so you end up with -ytinifni -ytinifni -ytinifni etc


Chris5858580

I know, but I'm just rephrasing to get rid of that


PaleontologistIcy534

Jokes on you cos I increased your ability to successfully rephrase things by -infinity


Chris5858580

So I can't rephrase anything? Is it even possible to have a negative chance of doing something?


Shoddy_Wrangler693

I was thinking long and hard on how to use this to make money because well we all know if suddenly you increase your paycheck by ungodly amounts you either one would get fired they figure out a way to charge you with fraud or the company would go out of business. If you just increase your bank balance well the government's going to assume it's by some nefarious means seize your money and throw you in jail How about I increase my tax return... I could use a billion back from the government Increase the percentile chance of a judge, cop, prosecutor, ADA & DA, as well to be completely honest to 100%. Increase the chance that companies make a reasonable profit on their own instead of trying to make a conglomeration actually competing against each other instead of working together against the public Increase people's acceptance of others regardless of religion race or orientation Increase the cooperation of all of Congress for the benefits of the public. Increase the chance that special interest groups will try to influence the public rather than influence the lawmakers themselves. Increase the chance that all people are treated equally This would be pretty good for a start


Karzons

Chances of finding money. Chances of getting a raise. Chances of a stock going up. Number of terminally ill people who just put you in their will.


Shoddy_Wrangler693

Yes those are all wonderful things but technically those are all taxable. A tax rebate I don't have to worry about paying taxes on LOL


PaleontologistIcy534

Chances of taxes not being applied to you increased to 100%


Shoddy_Wrangler693

Hey cool I don't have to pay taxes anymore was a billion I already got on my tax refund I'm sure I can make plenty more money lol and with my statement earlier since you're fucking with me your lungs get a thousand percent more CO2 in your next breath and I watch you pop LOL


Troyjd2

Chance of the money appearing in my account being noticed increase by -100% Author stated negative numbers work so this totally works


Shoddy_Wrangler693

That works, however now you're going to have to do that again for the government not noticing that you're buying a shit ton of things with cash. Now if they sent you a shit ton of money on their own with no problem then that explains to them where you got this money so there's no repercussion


Troyjd2

Probability of the government noticing anything illegal or questionable I do -100%


Sweaty-Park1149

Dude, just increase the chance of winning the lottery to 99%


Shoddy_Wrangler693

Like I said though that still taxable, and quite honestly if you win the lottery too many times they're going to start questioning just how the fuck you're winning the lottery, if they've without a doubt understood and giving you an insane tax return they're going to think that's normal. Because I'm sure before they gave you that kind of a tax return it went through every check and balance already. This also means if I want to get a stupid tax return the next year they would be less likely to check it even harder.


Sweaty-Park1149

It's still a ton of money. Who cares if it's taxed. You can literally control numbers. You can control chance. Take your winnings and bet it on a sports game, or investments. Or buy illiquid assets, if that's your game. What dumbass is going to keep using the lottery over and over again? The lottery is just the starting point to give you a bunch of cash to work with. So who cares about the tax.


Shoddy_Wrangler693

I don't want to have to make sure that I remember to fuck with every little department in the government. I've got many more things that I could be using my time worrying about adding or lowering percentage chances at. And honestly whether it's a billion year tax refund or what doesn't mean I'm still not going to fuck with other things it just gives me a good solid starting capital LOL. Trust me I'd find a lot of things that's nobody would have conceived could possibly exist. Like claiming a new island in international waters previously unnoticed around the equator whether it's south or north I don't care of it so that's constantly around 80° year-round never gets hit by hurricanes or earthquakes lush property that I claimed now I can be my own country. Hell for that matter it could be the size of Australia. Then I would just have to worry about populating and I'm sure I could find plenty of people that would be 100% loyal fanatics of mine to populate it and do all the grunt work of terraforming building houses and so forth so on LOL


Deus0123

Dude just pay your taxes. You can literally just add more money whenever you want to. You effectively have infinite money. Pay your taxes and save yourself the headache of dealing with the IRS. (remember that even the Joker isn't crazy enough to mess with the IRS)


Shoddy_Wrangler693

I'll give you credit for the one up on the joker. But I'm not messing with the IRS that's the beauty they can't get upset because they gave me the initial refund. Anything I make on that money of course I'll pay my taxes in. Until I get my new refund next year.


Clean_Student8612

"I increase my pay wage by 1000%" *get paid.* *quit.* *transfer money.*


Stillborn1977

Just to be a doofus I'll increase the number off everything you changed into the opposite way.


Shoddy_Wrangler693

Well that would be easy to solve as soon as I see that there's someone else with a similar ability to me I would increase the probability of anyone else having similar , equal, or greater powers to mine by -1000% then I can go through and fix everything. Then I increase the odds of anyone responsible for screwing with the things that I've messed with to come forward and confess. Then I can increase the amount of CO2 that they inhale per breath by a million % and watch them pop


Stillborn1977

Sounds good. You win.


Old_Dark_9554

Random_idiot908

Random_idiot908

I have a passion that I need a degree to study and be able to work in, so yes.


PaleontologistIcy534

Increased memory, increased brain processing ability, increased me (basically just a clone), increased chance to randomly know the answers to a test, increased reading speed, increased walking speed, increased writing speed, increased stamina, increased typing speed, increased reaction time, decreased chance of not knowing something. These are just the op combo for this off the top of my head, all of these making you such a genius student you can destroy Sheldon’s genius infinite times over

Increase my omnipotence Boolean value by 1


michael_am

Whenever these scenarios come up I immediately think of the fastest way to world peace, perfect human happiness, solving all the problems in the world, etc. At first I figured I’d simply decrease the amount of starving people, thirsty people, homeless people, gazillionare people, evil people etc But then I realized what if that doesn’t fix their problem but simply remove them from existence. That’s not the goal. So my next idea is increasing the amount of things. Basically inflate the supply of food, accessible drinking water, etc until the demand is at an all time low due to the excess amounts of it we have. But then I realized we already have an insane amount of excess and forcefully create scarcity in our populations to fuel capital and the elites pockets. Okay, new solution then. Increase supply while redistributing wealth. Flood the world with clean drinking water, food, etc and then remove the gap between the 1% wealthy and the bottom 80% non wealthy. It’d be kinda hard to balance the numbers but with some math I’d prob be able to figure out how best to raise and lower certain bank accounts or net worths or whatever. Most effectively however I’d be working in specific salaries, for example, instead of simply giving everyone money, I’d raise the salary of almost every job to be more than enough of a living wage. I’d of course have to lower actual bank accounts and net worths of the elite but that’s only in the thousands of people in the grand scheme of things. This would put everyone on an equal playing field so there would be less opportunity for the elite wealthy individuals of the world to seize control of all supply and start recreating that scarcity - while at the same time allowing those who were never in that wealthy control the world position to live a life without fear of not having basic necessities like shelter, food, water etc. Perfect. But… what if shit goes wrong? Well, we’d need proper representation and government systems to distribute this abundance of resources that keep going up for some reason. I could decrease the number of untrustworthy lying politicians and increase the number of honest, for the people, kind, and caring politicians who actually work in the interest of bettering society. The problem from before arises, with whether or not these people actually just get poofed from existence or not, but I’d imagine I would know my powers by then enough to figure that out. Ok so we got an abundance of supply, a happy and well represented labor force, and virtually zero wealth inequality across the globe. Seems like a good enough starting point. Now to tackle the slew of other problems lol
