I believe standard operating proceedure for humans in times of change are:
1) kill the politicians (it's all their fault anyway).
2) Destroy the financial institutions (any excuse).
3) Kill all those who are different from you or that you have a long standing grudge against.
You will find these are the things we have always done through out history. So I guess we'd have to fit it all in to the space of 8 minutes. So yea, I'd make a start on that list, knowing that most of mankind has had the same idea.

I'd hope it was night-time.

Originally by: Beetle Boy what if you had 8mins is to go get ****ed as qiuck as possible then stoned then run in a police station shout abuse at them then run as qiuck as possilbe
Then I'd graba bottle of JD and a bong and smoke and drink whilst driving to the police station, run in, let loose abuse and run like hell (probably in circles due to advanced inebriation.

Sorry dude, but that wouldn't save you. Even if the radiation DIDN'T manage to tear straight through the Earth's core, it would boil away the atmosphere on the day side. This would suck in the night-time atmosphere, which would also get boiled away.
If the world was to end in 8 minutes, I would wait seven minutes, then go outside and shout "**** YOU!!" at the sun. Not much else you can do really. --------------------------------------------------------------------

One thing I'd like to know though: if the sun DID go nova, would the earth be completely obliterated, or would there be a smoking husk left behind when the shockwave passed? --------------------------------------------------------------------

Originally by: Jarphen Bard Hug my wife and kids, take them out into the garden and kick a ball around for eight minutes, silently shedding a tear.
Ditto with the following exceptions...
I'd put the chaise lounge out in the Front Yard and Me and My wife with our 2 daughters would just watch the fireworks.
I'd of course be downing that bottle of 40 year old whisky I've been saving for My retirement but then I wouldn't be needing it for that anyway right?
I WOULD shed a tear not only for My family and My daughters not getting as much of a chance at life as I'd had, but I'd also be shedding a tear for Humanity Itself, thinking...
"If only We as a Species could have gotten along better, It might have been worth It...Owell bottoms up..."

Given the time it's going to take for the sun to start going nova, I think the best option would be to step in to the matter transport and hope there's still room on one of other the colonies in one the other galaxies? :)

we'll all be fine. CCP would nerf the blast wave way before it hit.
Failing that. I'd have sex with the missus.... twice. "Don't try to out-weird me. I get stranger things free with my breakfast cereal."

Well, I'll do the same as I did when we blew up the sun the last time. Standing on the observation platform watching the historic event.
Then after some drinks and nibbles, we'll restart the servers and give the dinosaurs the upper hand for the next run.

Hmm.
If I'd be with my girlfriend, I'd have sex with her, while telling her I love her. If not, I'd call her, and tell her I love her.
I'd tell my friends and family, if they were there with me, how much I care for them and how much they're friendship has meant to me.
I'd then sit down, have a smoke, and a large drink of whatever alchohol around, and wait for the bang. ------------------------- Sigs are for noobs. |

When I was taking a advanced field class in Wyoming for my Geology undergrad degree we were based out of Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
On the final exam, there was a question that went like this.
"You wake up one morning to hear a dull roar. You run out of your cabin and look to the northwest and see an orange glow, what do you do?"
A) Grab a beer and a seat and watch the end of the world. B) Get in the vans and drive as fast as you can to the southeast C) Put your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye D) Raid the kitchen and quickly make the most unhealthy meal you can think of."
The only wrong answer was (B)
For those that don't know, Jackson Hole, Wyoming is less then 100 miles from Yellowstone, and if the Yellowstone caldera goes off, well, let's just say nobody within 100 miles is going to live. Hell, most of the folks within 1000 miles aren't going to live.

Originally by: Jastra actually we'll all be dead before the sun expands to consume the earth, the sun will get warmer and warmer over the millenia, I read recently, so we only have about 2 billion years left, out of the 4 -5 billion years the sun is due to last, before the earth is a fiery desert anyway due to thermal increase in our stellar neighbour
Happy days
I heard the andromeda galaxy might crash into use even before that, ripping our galaxy to shreds and forming a new super galaxy. With options of getting flung far into deep space or maybe sucked into a superhot core of stars?

Originally by: Lord Evangelian Edited by: Lord Evangelian on 13/03/2007 16:41:15 Edited by: Lord Evangelian on 13/03/2007 16:36:19 Count to 8 Seconds... (Pretend its 8 mins...)
Now read below...
Event It takes approximately 8 mins for light to travel after being emitted from the sun to the earth. If the sun explodes this means we have 8 mins or less before the earth is consumed into a fiery apocalypse.
Reaction If you know this has happened and you know you have 8 seconds to live what would you do?...
------
I would try to log into eveāno doubt connection would fail or the server would be down, knowing my luck... just messing. I would spend my final seconds alive calling my fiancT and telling her that I love her...
I am sorry to have to contradict you but light would take 8.3 minutes to come over but the blast does not travel at the speed of light, but somewhere in the vicinity of 20,000 km/h from what we studied on supernovea blast.
The light in itself would probably not destroy everything on the surface but the blast would. So you would have some time to call your fiance, get her over and do one last thing important thing with her, unless you are unfortunate and she is on her period...

Well if I had 8 minutes to live I'd probably try to make love to as many women as possible in that time, it'd kinda bee a challenge.
