[WP] You have always been good at thinking your way through situations, which is why you signed up for this: You have 24 hours to escape a large island while avoiding a team that is hunting you. Your only supplies were pre-determined by your friends. It’s unfortunate that your friends are assholes.	611
[WP] Karma treats you differently from most. Any time something good or bad happens to you (no matter how large or small), something equally opposite also ends up happening to balance it out, usually to comical effect. You just won the lottery, and nobody understands why you’re a nervous wreck.	244
[WP] You seem to have been extremely lucky all your life. Then you find out that your Guardian Angel had been illegally "stacking the cards" for you. Now, due to his behavior, he has been replaced.	153
[WP] There exists a morality test that says, "If you push a certain button, half of the world population will die. But if you don't push it, the entire human race will be extinct in 100 years." As it turns out, the button is real ... and someone just pushed it.	84
[WP] You are enjoying a typical Saturday afternoon at your home when there’s a knock at the door. It’s a peddler selling what he claims to be magical and enchanted items. Your first response would have been to laugh if it weren’t for the fact that the peddler was undoubtedly a merchant goblin.	80
[WP] After traveling a pioneering voyage to a distant earth-like planet, you wake up from cryosleep and land the ship. To your utter shock, you are immediately approached by solemn-looking humanoids who ask in perfect English, “Are you the Messiah, or the Destroyer?”	66
[WP] Being a curator for a museum, you have had many ancient items come through your office. Most recently, a tome supposedly accompanied by dark beings who gain power based on what is written. You come to your office to find the book open on the floor and your 4-year-old doodling on its pages.	63
[WP] You are an ex-soldier with a strange “gift”: you hear music that goes along with your life experiences, like in a movie. You’re enjoying civilian life when suddenly you begin to hear something you haven’t heard since days at the front: the driving crescendo of the battle theme.	56
[WP] You're a leading Egyptologist who has been summoned to NASA. It seems that Voyager has begun transmitting again, and when the signal is unscrambled, it's a long string of hieroglyphs.	56
[WP] In an alternate reality, Adam and Eve never ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Noah’s flood never occurred. War and death do not exist. Technology has advanced and a powerful wall has been built around the forbidden Tree. But a small group of people are becoming ... curious.	49
