- reilly3000 5y agoWell if such a universe exists, there is probably one where it turns out exactly the same w/o math PhD, and another where its a very different game. In any case, we're not privy to those universe's goings on :/
- h0l0cube 5y agoTo that I'd say if you had a jazillion monkeys with a jazillion typewriters, the monkey that types Dwarf Fortress has at most at 50% chance of having a PhD
- teruakohatu 5y agoThat universe exists and the game is called Rimworld!
- pineaux 5y agoI thought it was discworld
- mathattack 5y agoTurtles all the way down
- qbit 5y agoI would make an even stronger assertion that this is almost certainly the case. ;-)
