You can choose which part you want, however where exactly is random based on the birth rate (if a region has a higher birth rate it is more likely that you are born there). What part would you choose and why?

K is probably most likely to be a good life. B is my second choice.

Are you a big fan of Mexico?

[–] zxqwas@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago

Bigger fan than most of the other options that was presented.

I choose I. Why? I-C-E-D. Free? Yessiree. Cold and totally bold. Aloned and totally stoned.

I is the place to be. I is the place for me. High is the state of me. I choose I.

Can't tell if D or E has a higher percentage of land, but your odds of being born in the water are high for G.

No risk of being born in water.

D and E has higher percentage of combat zones, so maybe not the best option.

otoh E contains active warzone and D two of them or more, depending on how you count

Is there any land it G? Like is it just to small to see or is it a joke option?

[–] RmDebArc_5@piefed.zip 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

There are some inhabited islands in g

K is objectively the right answer. Probably followed by A with a a bit of a dice roll on West Africa. Who wants to be born in a poor country?

I really like the concept here, but it needs some tweaking.

G as first choice, J is a close second.

[–] Soapbox@lemmy.zip 1 points 6 hours ago

In order of preference: K,B,H,A,G,E,F,C,I,J,D

[–] myrmidex@belgae.social 1 points 8 hours ago

I'd pick E if I'd land in Thailand. H would be a close second.

K is out of the question with my arachnophobia.

[–] Sunsofold@lemmings.world 1 points 41 minutes ago

If I go F, what's the probability of being born in R'Lyeh?
