Methinks threebag's wealth skyrockets when he hits adulthood with an intelligence of 99 and looks of 98. That might even be good enough to bag himself a Kardashian.

He's definitely a catch. I hope they don't do arranged marriages in Pakistan, because that would be an injustice to him.

With her intelligence, though, I'd worry that she would get duck lips or implants that are way too big.

I like the house, though. That's a nice place. It took a lot of work to find a nice house in that region. For some reason, the beachfront roads that you'd expect to be nice tended to be lower income or lower-middle income areas. Maybe being next to the water isn't that desirable in the Philippines?

Is it possible, however unlikely, for you to come up with Antarctica? Or is it not in your database since there's no permanent population and its just all government scientists living in bases?

edit: That would be a place which would really throw off the numbers. If you are poor and dumb in Antarctica, that wouldn't be that bad because you are being compared to geniuses with government jobs. If your appearance was bad in that group that would hurt though, and having a high score would be just average looks in the rest of the world.

Looking through the data, there's an "Australian Antarctic Territory" showing a population of approximately 1,000 people, and a Chilean Antarctic Territory with about 1,800 people. There might be others that I'm not seeing. So while it strains credulity a little, you could actually be reincarnated there. I doubt that those are scientific stations, but maybe they are? I have no idea.

The smallest population division I have, by the way, is 2 people on Alofi Island in the nation of Wallis & Futuna. I also show 3 people on the island of Nukuhifala in the same nation, and 4 people in the Coral Sea Islands of Australia.

The odds are really low of drawing one of those as your reincarnation.

alnorth 09-19-2016 12:39 PM

Random fun fact while researching Antarctica: to date only 11 people are known to have been born there. Makes sense, if you are pregnant you probably are going to delay going there or leave if you are there.

Very interesting. I vaguely recall that the employment terms at the South Pole station were a year or something, so were these 11 perhaps drunken hookups of scientists during their stay?

You basically just described me. I can't complain. At least I have an adorable kud. :)

This thread has me wondering how people would "rate" themselves now on your scale...

I get the feeling that 40-60 is pretty much the same generic average appearance on the scale, its at the extremes when things start changing rapidly. I don't think most people can tell the difference between a 40 and a 50, but you can easily see the difference between 90 and 100, or 10 and zero.

That's my thinking. If they were next to each other, you'd pick the 60 over the 40, but if you saw them both walking down the street ten minutes apart you wouldn't think much about a difference.

But yeah, a 100 versus a 90 is going to be noticeable. Both delightful, but a 100 is going to be world-class.

What does a zero look like?

I don't think we want to know. Maybe I'll go for a walk and pick the ugliest person out of 100 people that I pass, just to see.

You may need to increase your sample size. There is a correlation between appearance and being willing to go outside.

It is really interesting to see just the normal places that people live in around the world.

That's a good point. Maybe I'll go onto match.com or something instead.

I'm quite fascinated by that aspect of it. Google street views is nice, but it doesn't exist in the third world countries. I kind of want to start a web site that highlights the different types of housing by income around the world.

One thing that I've definitely learned is how rare it is to have a yard. This type of neighborhood seems to be pretty common in much of the world - houses right up to the street, and lined with walls (this is hydrae's Chile neighborhood): https://www.google.com/maps/@-33.054...7i13312!8i6656

I think true zeros are very likely to have given up all hope.

Sorry Rainman, I see no other option. You have to break into 100 occupied homes in the name of science. If you get shot, post your findings as quickly as you can before you bleed out.

Maybe I could just stratify my sample a bit by going to a comic-con.

We are going to need a female zero as well.

Women's studies program at an east coast university, perhaps? We can figure out a solution.

I dont have to worry about zero i will be a 100 with fishy fingers...

Today's reincarnations start with Fire Me Boy. Let's see (rolling the heavenly dice)...

Gender Male
Intelligence 38
Appearance 33
Wealth 76
Nation Azerbaijan
Region Shamkir
Population 173,401

Azerbaijan is a mystery to me, but it seems like a nice place and relatively clean. There are some mountains nearby and easy access to Armenia. You're a guy with family connections, so maybe you'll live in a house like this:

Stumppy gets to frolic around the mountains singing about living hills. He's not overly bright, but makes a good living.

Gender Female
Intelligence 29
Appearance 44
Wealth 84
Nation Austria
Region Innsbruck Land
Population 167,082

Innsbruck is an expensive place, so he'll live in a relatively modest apartment, but that's better than most.

Renegade is a poor shopgirl in what I think was once East Germany. He'll be competent and pretty attractive, but underachieving in her career. Leipzig has reasonably nice housing, but at her income level she'll live in a pretty small apartment like this and will probably not have a car:

Steron draws a relatively short straw in his next life:

You'll probably snag a reasonable-looking wife as long as she's also not very bright, but your long-term prospects are somewhat bleak. It's kind of cool to live in the heart of the Nile delta, though. You're going to live in the top floor of this apartment not for the views, but because it doesn't have air conditioning and is stiflingly hot and therefore has cheap rent.

So I'm kinda dumb, and kinda ugly, but pretty well off. So I can probably afford the occasional hookers and blow.

Probably. I bet hookers are relatively inexpensive in Azerbaijan, and you're reasonably close to the Afghan poppy fields. I don't know how widely used the death penalty is for minor offenses, though, so you'll want to check that out.

I'm concerned I won't be smart enough to do that research before hand.

I bet you're close enough to average that you'll have some smart friends.
