World Survival

This is not a survival score. It records what remains, what has changed, and what can no longer be confirmed.

2011-05-02

  • Existing · 現存Status: Existing3
  • Deceased · 故人Status: Deceased1
  • Unknown · 不明Status: Unknown4

Indexed entities: 8. Not collapsed into a single Survival Rate.

Not a score. Status breakdown only. Unknown remains unknown.

The elements of a single day do not disappear at the same speed.

A person can disappear while parts of their world continue to operate.
