Do a wish, someone then post the consequences and do the same
Keep doing that!

Rules to not make it dumb:

  1. The consequence MUST be based on clever phrasing and/or holes from the one who is asking it. If someone wishes to be rich, don’t say “Granted. But your family dies”. It has absolutely no cohersion. Instead, write “Granted, but you can’t spend the money” or “Granted, but you are rich of proteins at your body!”.
  2. Always start your post granting the wish from the comment above you, then saying the consequences and then asking your own wish. Any post that do not follow this template shall be ignored.
  3. Do not answer your own wish.
  4. You can try to elaborate your wish as complex as you like, or just make it as vague as possible to see what people can come up with.

This is based on this SubReddit, which is based on a book that follows the principles of this game.

I wish i could be transported to the medieval ages

also Geyde, that hit right in the feels

granted but now you are stuck there

I wish for a working time machine that can take me to any time I want, wont break and is one I know how to operate safely

#17

also you guys suck at this. The consequences have to be a direct result of the wish. Ex:

would be “Granted but you also phase through the floor” cuz that’s what intangibility would do to you and is also a direct method of granting the wish

Otherwise I can just say “granted but you also explode” to any wish
