Let's just say nuclear war is quite nice and all, but having woman singing when the world goes down just makes it so much better.
Edit:// And of course, riding with the bomb and everything. But female singer singing her song when the world ends is still the best reason.

Gravity doesn't work that way. Too much gravity doesn't push atoms together to make new things, it crushes and destroys them. This is why we have a sun that gives us light and heat, and things like blackholes. And if that's the power you want anyway, then yes, it basically IS TK, so why not just have TK and control all matter?
Besides, I think most times in fiction whenever gravity control has been used by anyone, it's been purely used to either increase or decrease the mass of an object, which is what gravity does best. So you can either make stuff float or crush them into paste. At its height it does blackholes. I've never seen or heard of gravity control being used for anything else, because that's TK.
Also, of the 4 fundemental forces in the universe, gravity is the weakest. It's beaten by electromagnetism, which would be a part of TKs power (electrons have mass, albeit only a small amount, so a TKer would be able to control them the same as protons and neutrons). In fact, TK could probably allow you to control ALL of the other 3 forces, al of which are more powerful than gravity, so you'd get electromagetism, the strong nuclear force (the thing that keeps atoms togehter) and the weak nuclear force (things like radiation, which is also made of matter).
So yeah, gravity control has nothing on TK.
God damnit Hawk, this is not how you handle superpower talk. >:O
I mean, we're talking about Superpowers. I made it through physics in high school, so it's not like I don't know most of all of that (like how weak gravity is). But seriously. Super powers implies I can do whatever I want. My main point I think is that if you look at other superhero's/super powers with the same logistical light (and lord knows people have) then none of it makes sense, so logically, one must throw logic out the window, sometimes to great degree, to create something fantastic. Like I said, the super power I prescribed utilized making gravity forces out of no mass, directing them even! That's just crazy stupid! But isn't that much more awesome of a power than the logical use of gravity? :) Also, in my defense, we don't know why gravity works the way it does yet, though we do know how it works, as far as I was taught anyway. So who knows. If someone had the ability to warp reality (which is what most powers do, it seems like) then maybe this stuff could happen? Anything could happen.
Also, I would've done TK, but you took it. So there.
Anyway, as far as end-world scenarios, It'd go like this. It starts with the zombie virus. people rapidly start getting infected from Russia outwards. Only 1/4th of the world is immune to the disease, but many die due to the zombies. Once that issue is dealt with, the small civilization starts rebuilding. but is then approached by aliens! The aliens come granting technology, and welcome the humans to space. Meanwhile, they start mining the sun for power; this is common amongst other alien races, they explain, since space ships require so much power. the humans rapidly overtake what was once before them. Suddenly, another alien race comes! It charges the first alien race with crimes against nature (or what have you) for stealing precious many years from the sun. the humans are implicated in this through negligence, and the aliens lying. there is a war in the solar system, and slowly, the humans are killed off, until there is only the original city left, burned and broken, with few survivors remaining. Some leave, to try and hide in caves somewhere, others stay, to fight to the death. Eventually, all but those who left are dead, and the rest starve to death. The final city? We called it Atlantis.

Steve Bradbury- At the age of 39 he showed up to the 2002 Olympics just to have a putter around the speed skating tracks. He had some moderate success in his prime- winning a bronze medal 8 years ago but was well past his prime.
Then some shit went down.
He won his heat ok but in the quarter finals he drew the favourite and the defending world champion- only the top two would qualify and he was considerably slower than them. He dug deep and finished 3rd meaning he should have been out but a man ahead of him was disqualified for obstruction so he managed to sneak through.
So he got to the semi-final where pretty much all the opponents were better than them. So his plan was to hang up the back and hope his opponents crashed into one another. And they did. All but one of them crashed so he made the final.
Up comes the final. So may be it'll work again. He wasn't even trying to hang back in the final- he was well off the pace, nearly being lapped by the other competitors. When every single opponent fell down allowing him to skate a gold.
So basically we had:
Washed up old man at olympics
1) Wins first race
2) Gets through quarter-finals because of disqualification
3) All but one of his opponents falls over in semi-finals
4) All his opponents fall over in finals.
Gold medal huzzah!
First for his country in the winter olympics too.

Archbio - Golden Receiver - We tried this with my friends golden. First play got a touchdown, 2nd play, handed it over to the other team, 3rd Play ran it out of bounds in the endzone for a safety, 4th play, handed it BACK to the quarterback, 5th play, dropped the ball to go chase a butterfly. Was a horrible plan.
Si Civa - Eddie Guerrero - I figure he did some knee work to get the title
Mr. Bookworm - 2008 Giants - Amazing win by a good team against a great team. But still not that surprising.
Hawl - Cool Runnings - Its awesome cause it's Jamaicans in winter sports, in Canada.

A Bard is best to get a party killed in D&D.
There was this huge battle at the climax of a campaign, with several forces converging on a macguffin of import to the entire world (it wasn't a very subtle game.) It was mostly villains with the PCs in the middle trying to impair the whole "world falling to evil" thing that seemed to be made likely by most possible outcomes.
The thing is, the villains were fighting each other. There were a necromancer's undead minions on one side, evil humanoids on another and a human overlord and his human army on a third. The idea was, in reality, that there wasn't as much pressure on the party as it appeared because the villains interfered with each other.
Unfortunately, there was this Bard, and he decided to save the day by neutralizing the villains with the power of music!
Problem is: that sort of thing tends to have little effect on walking corpses.

The bard exploits this pretty well, constantly throwing his character in front of attacks and having a new version of himself pop up to do the same.

4) Sir Pinkleton - Himself - I know nothing of your action packed lifestyle, so I have nothing to compare it to.
3) Si Civa - Jesus - He did a few good things, but not what I'd call an action hero.
2) Archbio - Junior Jones - This is a true action guy. He fights Nazis and isn't afriad of, er, actually no, he's afraid of snakes. -1.
1) Rejected Again - James Bond - No much tops the suave sophisticatedness and high tech gadgets of James Bond. When it's Connery Bond all other contenders might as well give up immediately.
All yours Rejected.

Sandwich dispenser - McTahr - I've seen some, so I assume they're not fictional. Maybe you meant a fictional version that doesn't give out a strange paste shaped into the form of a sandwich.
Robocop - Rejected again - He's not a machine, he's a man and his name is Murphy!

Robox - greed - I don't know what that is.
SCP-914 - Viridis - I don't know what that is. Seems convoluted.
Optimus Prime - Token - One half of him is a great robot leader, the other half is an ugly, mundane vehicle.
The holodeck - whomper - It's awesome, but nothing interesting is done with it unless it's a malfunction.
Stargate - Hawk - The only good thing about anything with Stargate in the name. Archeological bonus!
The Bussard Ramjet Funka - It has a sail, it has to count for something.
Robo from Chrono Trigger - Si Civa - Rogue robot with a heart, aww. There's also the thing about centuries spent restoring a forest.
TARDIS - Bard - Time travel powered by plot.
Delorean - Wigmund - Time travel powered by plutonium, fusion, lightning and style!

Man, I occasionally think, "Hey, you know, maybe I should give this one a serious answer instead of my normal bullshit," but I never stop to think about what I'm going to ask if I win.
So, after much thought, I've decided to ask--"Best piece of Fantasy Equipment". When I say fantasy I mean fantasy as in mages and warrior and what not. Has to be vaguely established, so no like "A magic helmet that makes you god" or something silly like (unless such a helmet exists in some mythos somewhere, it probably does, whatever).
Also, for the record, my other option for Arch's question was the goblin glider.

12)Whomper, Improbability Drive--Not Fantasy.
11) Hawk, Armoire of Invincibility--Useless.
10) Si Civa, One Ring--It's a cursed ring of invisibility. Sure, Sauron can, apparently, use it for more, but no one else can. Fuck that.
9) Viridis, Discworld Luggage--Don't know much about Discworld, so this gets stuck down here purely on my own ignorance, and your description makes it sound mostly useless.
8) Wigmund, Jareth's Pants--It's not the pants that are magical, it's Bowie's package. Now if you had said "The Goblin King's Massive Man-Meat" I might have given this a higher score. Or a lower one. I'm not sure.
7) Sir Pinkleton, Bag of Holding--This is an item no adventurer should go without, but it's not quite as fun as the others listed.
6) Arhra, Head of Vecna--Useless, and gross, but gets bonus points for lulz.
5) McTahr, Jacinth of Inestimable Beauty--Pretty awesome, but not really my style.
4)Bard, Necronomican--"Look, maybe I didn't say every single little tiny syllable, no. But basically I said them, yeah."
3) Archbio, Ring of Regeneration--This kinda depends, are talking like FF6 healing 30 health per round regeneration, or are we talking like 'put this ring on and turn into deadpool but less crazy' regeneration? Either way, pretty useful.
2) Krogo, Girdle of Gender Changing--This probably SHOULDN'T be this high, but I played a MUD with this item installed, and forced a fellow player to wear this for like a week. And wear a dress. And called him "Pretty Pretty Princess".
1) 42Petunias, Seven League Boots--Teleportation has always been right up there with regeneration for my favorite ability. Even if it is limited to 7 leagues at a time.
42 Wins.

Sure, Sauron can, apparently, use it for more, but no one else can.
It's implied others (like Gandalf and Galadriel) could use it for more, but it seems like there really needs to be some pre-existing power in the wearer for the ring not to just do the default trick of stealing your soul (and making you invisible.)
Then there's the fact that the ring would still be the boss.
I did mean the "practically immortal" type of regeneration.

It's a fake beard. It's not for real, sheesh. :/A.) You never specified the beard had to be real.
B.) I figured with you guessing the One Ring all those times that you might get a kick out of my answer.
C.) I wasn't desiring to win this round, given that I had just had control of the previous round.
D.) You suck.

4. Hawk - The beard suits him but I don't know Star Treck well enough.
4. krogothwolf - While he has macho beard it was his sunglasses (and the over the top character) what made him even more crazier.
4. Whomper - I always pictured him with longer beard. Very crazy guy though.
4. McTahr - While there's no picture anymore I was unlucky enough to have mental images of that picture.
^ I couldn't pick who would lose because I quite liked those beards.
3. Krylo - It's crazy enough to suit the guy. It's kinda surprising though that there wasn't more these kind of beards.
2. InsageGenius - Mr. T knows his style and knows how to be crazy.
1. Wigmund - That's crazy wizard beard if there ever was one. And he's Alan Moore.

Bard - While it is epic in that those are probably the toughest sons of bitches in Oz, I happen to neither be a denizen of Oz or a midget. Though I am angry.
Funka - A song to manliness, good, but not good enough.
Archbio - Ah yes, this is good. But it is alas about someone bitching about Fate. I intend to make Fate my bitch - not the other way around.
Krogoth, Si Civa & Whomper - Hmmm, these are all excellent choices and I do not want choose between them...
What ever shall I do?
I know, a knife fight between you three. Last one standing shall continue this fine game.

BardThe5thLW: Sepulchritude
I was so annoyed by that video that I closed it a third of the way in. Annoyance is not an attack!
Krylo: Shotgun
This is a weapon, not an attack.
Hawk: Orbital Ion Cannon
Once again, this is a weapon, not an attack. (Even though it's a cool one.)
McTahr: Gary Busey
For the LAST TIME, this is a weapon, not an attack.
Rejected Again: Falling Moon
I suppose that's an attack of some sort. It's rather strange, though.
DarthMauler64: Splash
This did nothing, yet still managed to place above something.

Okely-dokely, let's see what we have here!
-Cybermen: Nifty, and they've been the centerpiece of some amazing Who serials; that said, they also tend to be the Doctor Who villains everyone thinks of right after they think of Daleks.
-Midnight monster: I keep telling myself I should try and get into more Davies-era Who, but I never do. That said, I've heard this is one of his best (or at any rate least Davies-like) stories.
-The Meddling Monk: A Classic Who villain whose stories I have shamefully not encountered yet. I shall endeavor to remedy this in my search for more First and Second Doctor stories.
-The Empty Child: Came from two stories good enough they made me temporarily forget they featured Rose Tyler. They're the reason I hope for extremely good things from Moffat-Who.
-The Master: This one was quite close. Had it been Roger Delgado's Master from Classic Who, it would've been an instant win. (He was the original Master, and he was awesome.)
-Omega: He's a threat big enough to bring together the first three incarnations of the Doctor, and he chews scenery like he has a deficiency in Vitamin Ham. This round goes to krogothwolf!

Geminex: Star Wars Christmas Special - This thing you speak of does not exist. NOW DIE!
42: Jar-Jar Binks - You Die now, Die Die Die!
DarthMauler64: Darth Maul - Not enough attention given to him to draw me. Plus he was in the Phantom Menace.
Wigmund: This Sandtrooper - He should be on CSI!
Hawk: Mace Windu - He was cool, till he thought he should argue to anakin as to why palpatine had to die instead of just choppin his head off.
Si Civa: Chewbacca - He was awesome enough to use a crossbow
Bard: R2-D2 - Now where getting somewhere! The first droid ever to make me cry when I thought he died :(
Greed: HK-47/Tarkin - Both Pretty much rank the same. Tarkin a little lower cause he was arrogant to the point of dieing
Whomper: Yoda - Little green frog's got the moves!
Insane: Ackbar - He can't repel fire of this magnitude from the others!
Masked Jedi - Darth Vader: Totally Bad Ass. I will choke you for calling the force stupin
Ape Boy: Boba Fett - He was silent and built up to be awesome, But got shot into a sarlac by a blind Han Solo
Krylo: Han Solo - He was so awesome he shot first.
Instant win? Lando Calrissian! So Krylo takes this one with Han Solo, the second coolest Smuggler in Star Wars.

If I had lost I was going to point out that it was actually YOU had lost, by loving someone more than Han Solo... though I guess Lando is pretty close.
