    I'll be honest.

    I'd probably go in, lock the doors, and never come out unless required.

    The holodiction thing Barclay had is going to be a very real thing soon enough.

    You people are all lame.


    First off, I would re-create the set of Smooth Criminal with Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, and Andre the Giant as backup dancers.

    Then I would have an Old-West style shootout. In zero gravity.

    Then I would recreate the battle of Waterloo as historically accurate as possible, replace all the weapons with chickens, and have ABBA playing in the background.

    This freaking wins.

    I mean really. Here we have a machine that lets you make the Care Bears duke it out with the Cabbage Patch Kids, and most of you use it for TRIBBLE???

    Shame on you!

    You've inspired me. I'm changing my answer to this: The Battle of Hoth, but instead of rebels versus Imperials, it would be the heroes of DC versus the Heroes of Marvel. John Belushi would be in charge of the rebels and Warwick Davis (as himself) would be in charge of the Imperials.

    Is that better? I'm trying to improve myself here.

    I'd do a holonovel series based on the Adam West Batman show except every instance where someone says "Batman" the name would be replaced by "A Man Dressed Like a Bat."

    If I had a Holodeck, I would do what I do with everything else: Install Linux on it and use the console mode only, because I never liked this GUI business. So you have a computing machine capable of rendering a fully realistic 3D environment being used for text. Because if I could play STO in text, I would. That's just how I roll.

    Yes, I hate fun.

    I would meticulously recreate the setting of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

    Then I would create a typical selection of their fanbase, ranging from the hardcore fanboys to "cloppers", and even the intended audience of little girls.

    I would seat them all with a clear view of me, on a floating platform designed to follow me around.

    I would ask, "Who is best pony?" And they would answer.

    And then, one by one, I would find best pony, lash them to a torture device, and torture them slowly while their fans lament, begging me to stop. But I won't stop.

    I won't stop.

      Too many choices. TRIBBLE will definitely be there though, but I will probably also do something similar to Tom Paris or Janeway: some kind of 3d representation of an elegant room to enjoy some old media (flim or paper)

      Run a program where I'm the drummer for Slayer (R.I.P. Jeff) in front of a sold out crowd in Madison Square Garden. Not very Trek, I know, but hey, it's my fantasy.

      That depends, is this-- Oh, who am I kidding? Interactive TRIBBLE, obviously. Any, and every, scenario I could think of, provided I didn't have to mop up afterward.

      What kind of program would you run?

      I'm thinking I'd like to "holodeck" the entire Doctor Who collection, books and other media too, then standardize the appearance of the regeneration sequence, and have fun running Doctor #X through Doctor #Y's stories just to see how the different personalities would handle the situation.

      Then I'd set up a randomization, create a scenario where Doctor #1 regenerates at a different time, and see what the holodeck computer does to create a new Doctor different than the classic Doctor #2. I'd choose the role of companion.

      I seem to recall a Star Trek novel (was it from Diane Duane?) which had a holodeck cameo of a lanky, toothy guy with a long scarf running into a blue box. No names were given, of course.

      Not exactly holodeck. It was My Enemy, My Ally, set during TOS, and it was 3d holographic projections, not actual "holodecks" as TNG defined the term. Basically just 3d images with no substance.

      As for what I would do. . . ye gods, what WOULDN'T I do? A recreation of Asgard where I can sit down with Odin, Thor, Freya, Loki, Tyr, and so on and talk about the fate of humanity. Drop down and fight shoulder-to-shoulder with Viking warriors. Re-create The Deadliest Warrior, and finally pit a Pirate against a Ninja. Sing on stage with Queen. Insert myself into episodes of Buffy: The Vampire Slayer. Pit Spike against Anita Blake to see who would win. Discuss transhumanism with Paul Atredies, Charles Xavier, and Qui-Gon Jinn. Run the best New World of Darkness LARPs EVER. Kill Hitler. Be Hitler. Be Captain America. Be Spider-Man. Invent semi-automatic pistols for the Roman Legions for the lolz. Invent semi-automatic pistols for Spartacus' slave army for the same (in two different programs, of course.) Give a Samurai a lightsaber and have him fight Obi-Wan Kenobi. Have Leif Erikson fight Worf. Have Obi-Wan Kenobi give me lightsaber lessons. And, of course, lots and lots of "adult programming."

      Personally, if I had one though some sort of wish I would ask for it somehow to make time not pass when I'm inside it (or at a very slow rate).

      I would go in for 5 days only 5 seconds would pass and of course I would not age.


      What would I do. What WOULDN'T I do.


      Finish all my non-online games.
      Loose a load of weight
      Read every book I've wanted to
      Convert every movie adaption of a book to be more like the book.
      Learn a bunch of languages (Japanese, Korean, French, Spanish, etc)
      Finish watch all my boxsets
      Film my web series with awesome sets and effects
      Sleep
      Work on customer machines with a heck of a lot more resources than I have now
