Just one suggestion: come up with a new goal to put at the top of the list, and shift the rest down. That way, "how to hack into the computer our universe is running on" would be "up to 11" on the list.
The new #1 item could be something like "We're going to make yet another novelty t-shirt store!"
Since it's basically a log scale in terms of outcomes, the T-shirt store might be a 0.
-10 would be "I will make a generic post on LW."
It would be a fun exercise to flesh out the negative side of the scale.
-11 My knee had a slight itch. I reached out my hand and scratched the knee in question. The itch was relieved and I was able to continue with my activities.
-25: It briefly occurs to me to think about a generic post on LW.
-15: I will specify a single item on the negative side of the scale.
-20: I will critique a potential addition to the list without adding a suggestion of my own.
That's not a very interesting item, it's too similar to the -15 one.
-21:
Nah.
11 We think we've figured out how to hack into the computer ALL the universes are running on.
12 create your own universe tree.
13: the entire level 4 Tegmark multiverse.
14: newly discovered level 5 Tegmarkian multiverse.
15: discover ordinal hierarchy of Tegmark universes, discover method of constructing the set of all ordinals without contradiction, create level n Tegmark universe for all n
