I ninja'd you by about 28 hours

Whatever to all of your ideas, your thoughts are too mundane, this is MAD PLANS!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAaaaaaa...

Squish the fly with your mind, create tiny laser batteries with mini-radar webs to take care of pests or rain drops that seek to enter your window, hire small children for pennies a day to stand at the ready outside your window to squash anything that annoys you, stuff like that. Think BIG, think maniacal, get creative and get down!

I see. So, what you're saying is that flies are part of the opposition to world domination, and as such we must put down all fly-kind in a swift and brutal manner so that no other insects dare to oppose us.

I propose a large magnifying glass.

Demetrius · 03-31-2007, 08:46 AM

Not complicated enough, hopeful pursuers of maniacal world domination have to follow the rules; and the rules say your plans to kill anything must be needlessly complicated, and easily thwarted (unless the killing is of an underling, these can be brutal, direct and often involve trap doors and fire).

So going with your magnifying glass idea...

Train tarantulas to fry the flies with magnifying glasses attached to thier heads.

Tendronai · 03-31-2007, 09:47 AM

But Tarantula's are poisonous. You really want a gang of poisonous spiders running around with magnifying glasses attached to their heads?

No, the solution here is to attach the magnifying glasses to the heads of the flies, then wait for them to approach some mirror-like substance where the sunlight will be reflected into them and thus fry them.

Demetrius · 03-31-2007, 09:52 AM

In this case I would argue that the flies are your adversaries, not your henchmen or beasts of destruction, that would be like telling Bond to come up with the complicated and flawed scheme to finish himslef off and to put it into motion on himself. Now if you could get that to work then you truly would be mad...ly insane...ly awesome!

EDIT: To answer your question:

Hell. Yes.

Tendronai · 03-31-2007, 10:02 AM

Excellent. Now I understand completely - in order to take over the world, I need not do anything save tell my enemies to come up with plans to defeat themselves. Someone notify the flies, my errant minions. They have failed me for the last time.

Khael! · 03-31-2007, 10:18 AM

Make them think you're coming up with plans. Throw out so many rumours and possible hints to them that they get all caught up in trying to sort it out.

Done properly, they'll start thinking three steps ahead, shooting down all their own ideas of thwarty-infiltration, ever fearing that we already know that they know that we know just how much is known about their being aware of our little-known exact plans for world domination.
If that's not complicated then I'm Avril Lavigne.
It should keep them paranoid about their plan of attack long enough to give us tons of free time for real planning. Who knows? Maybe they'll show up at our mastermind headquarters wearing tinfoil beanies. I'd giggle if they did that. After I destroyed them of course.

Tendronai · 03-31-2007, 10:22 AM

So, then the plan seems to have become just start shouting random things to people, and assume that they will believe it is part of a real plan. Then, they will try to thwart whatever goes with "Stapler Monkeys", and we will be able to advance our real plan, which can no longer involve the stapler monkey.

I believe some homeless people are WAY ahead of us on this train of thought.

Demetrius · 03-31-2007, 10:54 AM

Meh, a villian is less effective when he shouts, that usually means he's lost his cool and the good guy is about to win. Let rumours trickle out through the double agents, kill a few of your own henchmen, leave false trails and wait behind 3" of very clear bullet proof glass on your skull shaped island. Speaking of skull shaped islands, who could honestly pass one up?
