You have to pick:

A genie appears and grants you three wishes. Each time you make a wish there is a 50% chance the genie will be genuinely helpful and a 50% chance it will try to twist the literal wording of your wishes in ways you won't like.

or

A genie appears and instructs you to write down 100 wishes. The wishes must be substantially different. Once they are all written, three are chosen at random and granted.

what if the meaning of the wish itself is malicious, so he tries to manipulate it and ends up doing good? or the wording is not ambiguous at all?

You totally have the ability to try to make the wish not twistable, or double trick the genie. That doesn't mean you'll succeed though.

What happens when there are mutually contradictory wishes (eg, wishing to live in a castle on the Moon, and wishing to live on a private Carribean island)? I'm going to assume that the three wishes get selected in random order and that subsequent wishes can override earlier ones in the details where they conflict.
