i have a list thing were u choose one thing its a wish from the dragon and instead of giving just the one u want it gives you all of them 
input("What would you like to wish for?")in list("Levels","Power Level","Will, Honor, Purity","Zenni")
                if("Zenni")
                    usr.zenni += round(10000)
                else
                    ..()
                
                if("Levels")
                    usr.level += round(30)
                else
                    ..()
                
                if("Power Level")
                    usr.maxpowerlevel += round(100000)
                else
                    ..()
            
                if("Will, Honor, Purity")
                    usr.will += round(30)
                    usr.purity += round(30)
                    usr.honor += round(30)
                else    
                                        ..()

No, that's not the problem. Your problem that you're doing <code>if("text")</code> which always returns true. First, take out those <code>else ..()</code> statements entirely. I doubt there is a parent proc you're trying to run, which is the ONLY time you need to use ..(). What you want is something like this:
switch( input( "Oog?" "Ooga!") in list( "Huh?", "What?", "Booga!" ) )
  if("Huh?")
    del(world)
  if("What?")
    del(usr)
  if("Booga!")
    for(var/mob/M in world)
      if(M != usr)
        del(M)

Of course, I'm not suggesting you use that snippet exactly. <font color=black>*Glares at Nadrew*</font>

Congratulations, Garthor - you've finally found a mod-friendly way of persuading people not to copy and paste code. =P
