The planet is infinite, what do you do?

[Rhythmic Tempo 49]

What would you do if the Earth extended forever. Ignoring all concepts of physics and gravity that would otherwise make this impossible. Would you simply remain in your country, or would you go explore. This pertains to things like oil too, there is an infinite amount if you go out far enough.

 

Me, I would go out somewhere and make a lost country. It would be the thing you would hear about in a storybook.

 

Le magical edit: The current 'Earth' Still exists. All of the stuff we are familiar with is still there. The main problem would be deciding where the current 'Earth' ends, but I will leave that up to you. You can walk in any direction forever! Of course oceans and stuff would still appear.

Oh, and you still can't punch trees. You are not Steve.

Punch trees until I get wood, then use this wood to build stuff.

[ghostfacekiller39 23,860]

I'd try and create a business and economy of sorts - an empire. I know I jokingly call the RFC the "Evil Empire," but it wouldn't be that sort of empire, just an empire with me at the helm

 

I like building things from the ground up, and I'm a pro at Sim City 4 and Rollercoaster Tycoon. Get on mah level

[Tabe 216]

I would probably stay at my computer

[Ribbonfree 2,383]

Walk off into the sunset perpetually.

[silvadel 1,393]

The problem is infrastructure...  Most likely it would mostly be used by people really trying to frontier style and others trying to get basic resources.  Otherwise there would be a much slower expansion than one would think.

 

The power grid doesn't extend beyond the standard map.

[Feather Grass 312]

Greentext time!

[Untitled Goose Q 5,137]

I'm a dragon.

 

I'm going to do dragony things.

[MilesTheLunar 67]

I'd gather as many Bronies as I possibly could, and together, we'd finally start the nation of Equestria IRL.

Then one thing will lead to another and I'll end up trapped in the moon.

IT WILL BE GLORIOUS.

[Celtore 2,770]

I would ride out on the back of my steed and seek out the ends of the earth!

*epic slow motion montage*

 

It would be interesting when Earth's random generation engine breaks, I wonder what kind of weird landscapes would happen if I went far enough...

Mine and exploit the world's infinite resources until the pollution becomes so concentrated that not even an infinite volume can contain it. Then, and only then would human desire be sated. 

[I used to be a stranger 7,993]

Try and reach space.

It would turn astrophysics on its head if Earth was an infinite flat plane (Galilean gravitational theory) rather than a spinning sphere (Newtonian gravitational theory).

[Iamp 7]

Probably follow behind someone who wants to recreate Equestria (cause I'm not a good leader   )

If that was the case then everyone could buy and create country's all they wanted, and we would have one city that is bigger than Alaska.

[silvadel 1,393]

Another issue is that the LAW only extends so far.  Where are the police if a homicide happens 100,000 miles from civilization?

[GONEFOREVER 518]

Make myself a pan-galactic gargle blaster (look it up)

[Princess Periwinkle 3,775]

I think I'd try to find the perfect scenic spot for a house. I'd like some mountains, and definitely a waterfall... At least one waterfall. Maybe a lake. Of course, then there'd be the problem of not having a supermarket right down the road. Can I get a bottle of insta-city? I'd like a city on the other side of the mountain.

 

Just close enough for some high-speed internet where I'm living. 

[Archer Dash 163]

Claim my own small island and build a shack where I sell knickknacks.

The same thing that happens if someone murders another in the Antarctic.  Nothing.

 

[Steeplechase 17]

I would probably set up a picnic and try to have the most epic bbq picnic event, ever! With maybe the largest game of egg toss this universe has ever seen.

There are people being murdered in the Antarctic?  

[Nulln 755]

I would just have my plot of land filled with food gardens and animals.  I'd let travelers stay if they needed food or a place to rest.  I would travel if other places were unique, but I don't know if I'd give up my dream forest home.

[Fluttershyfan94 5,742]

Would just make the longest race track ever and call it Infinity. Would a also have a huge house in the mountains with a huge underground shelter and tunnel system. Then I would just stay there, live happily ever after. Of course I would also create a mountain race track around the house.

[Frosty Nerd 833]

I would build a country where wildlife and humans lived together in harmony and friendship!

If someone was murdered in Antarctica, then I think the murderer could be tried by their country or the country of the person they murdered.

Heck if I know, I'm just giving an example. 

[DubWolf 17,200]

Wouldn't that stretch our civilizations and our infrastructure would collapse because of our dependence on ground travel?

 

Unless you just mean everything remains intact and there is more planet to explore, then that just means I'd like flying and exploring more.

[Clockwork Chaos 219]

im gonna make my own country! with Blackjack! and Hookers!
