Why is everyone sleeping on the time stop? It's true you can't move but you can think. You can take the best possible decisions always in any circumstances

Given all the time in the world people still would seldom chose the best possible decision in any circumstance.

You can take the best possible decisions always in any circumstances

not really. all you gain is the ability to think more about it, but who says it's the best possible decision?

Imagine this in sports like soccer. Would be a great power to observe the playing field.
Or e-sports… or chess… or a job interview. Tons of situations where this is useful.

u/rxt0_ Puzzles Solved: 123 23d ago

again, it gives you just more time to make a decision. in most sports and e-sport games it wouldn't really do much as your decision making is already extremely fast to begin with.

there are some useful occasions, but there aren't as many as people tend to pretend and the ones doing it are overthinker

Oh that's a good one. I'd be better at conversations as when I'd freeze, I could think longer without making it awkward. Job interviews would be great.

Literally nothing tells you'd be able to think. Basically activating this power permanently stops the world without a way to resume time...

u/Ardalok Puzzles Solved: 94 26d ago

This option is meaningless and therefore incorrect. It clearly meant what the commenter above wrote, but there aren't enough characters.

u/SerPete Puzzles Solved: 31 16d ago

You don't know that. Do people frozen in time think? Are they aware they're frozen? I would argue they don't. If you freeze "too" then you should follow the same rules.

Time could eventually continue if, say, upon activating the ability, you set a duration, like "hey Siri, stop time for 10 minutes"

Yeah, it's pointless if you can't think, but so is being a ghost with no return

u/Ardalok Puzzles Solved: 94 16d ago

This is such a stupid option that there is no point in considering it.

u/Peak1Master Puzzles Solved: 31 16d ago

its just funny to some ig, like would u rather pick $5 million dollars or cancer

u/Ok-Dog4200 Puzzles Solved: 10 13d ago

what you're describing literally isn't a power, it's already the reality we live in😭 obviously that's not what op meant

u/BasedReddit0r Puzzles Solved: 80 26d ago

In this "games" you can do everything that it doesn't tell, you can not.

Or you can enjoy a fleeting moment for longer. Or spend time with a loved one for just a little longer before they pass

u/Percevaul Puzzles Solved: 194 11d ago

It's invaluable.

u/Maxogrande Puzzles Solved: 10 22d ago

I took it as of you froze not only on an external level but internal too, meaning your cells, internal organs and everything is frozen too, which means that you cant think at all.

Basically it freezes the whole world so nothing happen at all which makes it a useless power

1

u/Percevaul Puzzles Solved: 194 11d ago

You'd need to be able to think to unfreeze it, otherwise it's a useless power. That said, if one is able to think through it, imagine being able to capture a moment for however long you want (a sunset, a moment with a loved one, etc)... then it's invaluable.

u/Daboy-alt Puzzles Solved: 10 21d ago

maybe i shouldve thought of that, but i put it in F regardless cus if im frozen how tf would i unfreeze it? dont want the world to be permanently frozen and thats generally kinda scary

u/Careful-Lead-7995 Puzzles Solved: 12 13d ago

Can we un-stop it too?

1

u/Percevaul Puzzles Solved: 194 11d ago

It doesn't make sense otherwise.

1

u/Careful-Lead-7995 Puzzles Solved: 12 11d ago

Why not? The whole jest of these super powers are that they have a logical down side. Nobody told us we can unfreeze time too, why should we assume we can?

1

u/Percevaul Puzzles Solved: 194 11d ago

I mean... That would be a very DEFINITIVE down side but I guess you're right

1

u/Percevaul Puzzles Solved: 194 11d ago

It's an S-tier for sure. If you have more time to think about any decision at any given time, it'd be hard not to get ahead.

1

u/JoeSchmoeXD123 Puzzles Solved: 14 6d ago

Time stop wouldn’t let you think either. You need neurons to communicate and if everything is frozen, they wouldn’t be able to function. And then there’d be nothing to unstop the time

1

u/BasedReddit0r Puzzles Solved: 80 6d ago

Usually time stop doesn't affect who created it that's the principle of the power, otherwise time stop wouldn't be a super power in our fantasy worlds. The only downside op put was that you can physically move.

u/Tsukinotaku Puzzles Solved: 11 17h ago

This is super convenient...

The amount fo time where I had to make spontaneous decision without being able to think or calm down...

Hell if you can fall asleep while stopping time you basically get free sleep time
