I'll take it, as long as it's no more likely to be one of the earliest lives. I don't trust any universe that can make 3^^^3 of me not to be a simulation that would get pulled early.

Hrm... Recovering's induction argument is starting to sway me toward TORTURE.

Interesting. The idea of convincing others to decide TORTURE is bothering me much more than my own decision.

I hope these ideas never get argued out of context!
