To be fair, if he killed 50% of every existing population and he was currently 100% of his own population, it would have to kick into complicated rules lawyering, where either there'd still be a 50-50 chance he'd die, or half of his body would die, or something. But which again, only really applies if he left himself in the potential pool, or that he had no real control over the process, which doesn't seem to be the case. The entire process was powered by intent, and presumably at least part of his intent was that he'd survive the process to see the successful conclusion of his life's work. He didn't have to magic genie wish what he wanted with careful wording, he apparently wordlessly wished for exactly what he wanted and then snapped his fingers to symbolically trigger it (realistically, he shouldn't necessarily even have needed to do that specifically, since he already showed previously that he could use the powers of the stones he had as long as his hand was entirely free - the gestures were almost more psychosomatic than mandatory). So even a subconscious wish to survive or exclude himself would give him a 100% chance of survival. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ...
