OK. In comps class, me and this guy who is also on compsci got talking about stuff. Outta no where I asked him whether or not 1 tanks could wipe out an army of 1 billion ppl with only sticks. Now, he says no but i say yes. Now the tank is solar powered with batteries to last the night or a storm. There tank is remotly controlled via sattalite and is build so the wheels can't jam. There is a flame thrower and rocket launcher with many mahine guns and if it runs outta ammo it will just run over ppl. The ppl have only sticks and the tank is so heavy that not enuff ppl will be able to lift it. There are no rocks or anything that can bury it. Now Cast Your Vote!!!

of course the ppl will win over the tank, although I don't see what this has to do with compsci other than where the discussion is taking place. But the dead bodies would render the tank immoblie while the other ppl take years to beat the tank with their sticks, plug up every hole that it can shoot out of. etc.

but what kind of people in their right mind would jump on the tank in hopes that the weight of their dead bodies will crash the tank? Confused

It's the people, definitely the people!
OK, the people may have sticks now, but they can always split up regroup somewhere else and work together to destroy the tank. Half the billion run away in one direction, the other half in the opposite direction. There's no way the tank can chase both groups. They gather resources and most likely get their own damn tank to destroy the first one and there you go.

Either that or you can count on the fact that only a really stupid video game could have an idea like this. And by that I mean, since this is in a computer game, have maybe 3 or 4 of the bllion people use some kind of hack or even a noclip code to walk inside the tank (and pass through all bullets, flames, etc. unharmed), then turn clipping back on and now they have a tank. I know, the tank is supposedly controlled by satellite, but there has to be something vital to the tank's function that can be controlled by people from within it.

Plan A. I think you just need a few thousand or less becuase than those poeple would rip of the radar and the Satillite Connection would be brocken...

Plan B. Preferred by Tony I think, is that everyone jumps at the same time which will create a crack in the ground and the tank will fall into the spraying Lava, hehe...

Plan C. create a slop of boddies and make the tank drive if 200m up so it falls with enough velocity that it will be crushed...
