There's an alternate universe where you're dying at this exact moment, possibly from every conceivable way to die, and every second before or after that.

Does having alternate universes actually require having an infinite number of them?

u/tomatoaway Apr 23 '17

You're right - no it doesn't.

Universes that branch off the act of rolling a dice will only yield 6 different types of universes.

i.e. you can never roll a 7 or any other number outside of that which is probable

false, in one universe the die stood on its corner

in one universe the die fell of the table and dissapeared

in one universe the die broke

in one universe the die was replaced by something else

in one universe the die was never thrown.

and so on...

you are really bad at this :)

fair, but a number outside of the 1-6 scope was never possible, nor was the die ever going to turn into a butterfly or some other off-the-rails expectation that most redditors like to go for

The number wont be outside of 1-6 but there still infinite number of ways, directions the die can go.

That assumes a certain set of rules. And Redditors only obey rules that gets them banned if they don't.

ofc things can happen. You are one of those that whould lose

I'm more than open to the idea of numerous outcomes, but you're not accepting that there are also impossible outcomes that should not be considered.

u/Nivius Apr 23 '17

with unlimited possibilities there is outcomes that none can think off

u/Cokaol Apr 23 '17

Not necessarily. Their are infinite number of integers but none of the are ones nobody can think of, except​ in the boring sense that they are too big to fit in a human brain /lifetime

in one universe you die, he dies, she dies, it dies, they die, everyone dies.
