I read a science fiction short story where a human being and an alien battle it out among themselves in an area equally disadvantageous to both of them where they have been placed by member of a third race - an omnipotent being to the other two. This being conveyed that whoever wins shall win the galaxy as the omnipotent being would destroy the other race. The human being wins and the battle is also won. The fiction was probably written before fifties or latest sixties. Any idea about the name of the story?
In time Keeps on Slippin' , Farnsworth creates a basketball team which he matures by abusing Chronitons. This leads to time skipping forward by random, but ever increasing amounts. How much time was skipped in this way? Answer Unfortunately, I don't think a good estimate can be made for this, for two reasons: Many of the time skips move forward by an indeterminate amount of time. At one point, the Professor mentions localized regions of space skipping forward much more than others. We then see two young boys on the street below complaining about having to pay social security, only to suddenly become senior citizens and start complaining about wanting their money. Thus, each individual could have experienced a different amount of time skippage.
