Teleportation error rate calculator
A gloriously unscientific thought experiment: if teleporters existed, how likely is a botched reassembly? From your body mass, the teleporter tier, the distance and your last meal, it estimates an error rate, your survival odds and the number of atoms it politely misplaces along the way.

Frequently asked questions
What does the Teleportation error rate calculator actually compute?
It takes Body mass, Teleporter model, Distance and Last meal and derives Reassembly error rate, Survival probability, Atoms misplaced and Verdict from them. The calculation is live as you type, so the result updates on every change.
What information do I need to provide?
4 values: Body mass (kg), Teleporter model, Distance and Last meal. Nothing else is required — no account, no file upload.
Can you show a worked example?
With Body mass = 70 kg, Teleporter model = BudgetPort 3000 (★☆☆☆☆), Distance = Across the room (5 m) and Last meal = Empty stomach, the calculator returns Reassembly error rate = 0.4%, Survival probability = 99.6% and Atoms misplaced = 9,246,671,470,000,000,000,000,000. Those figures come from running this exact tool, so you can reproduce them by entering the same values.
What happens if I enter larger values?
It moves a lot. Using Body mass = 77 kg, Teleporter model = QuantumLeap X (★★★☆☆), Distance = Across the city (20 km) and Last meal = Light snack instead, Reassembly error rate goes from 0.4% to 0.07% — which is why it is worth testing a few scenarios rather than trusting a single figure.
Which “Teleporter model” option should I choose?
You can pick between « BudgetPort 3000 (★☆☆☆☆) », « QuantumLeap X (★★★☆☆) », « HeisenbergPro Elite (★★★★★) » and « DarkMatter Mk.I (★★?☆☆) ». Each one changes what the calculator works out, so switch and compare — the default is « BudgetPort 3000 (★☆☆☆☆) ».
Which units should I enter the values in?
Enter Body mass kg. Metric and US units are both supported — switch system and the figures convert for you.
What does it give for smaller values?
Scaled down to Body mass = 63 kg, Teleporter model = BudgetPort 3000 (★☆☆☆☆), Distance = Across the room (5 m) and Last meal = Empty stomach, Reassembly error rate comes out at 0.39%. The relationship is worth checking at both ends before you rely on a single result.
When would I actually use this?
The questions no reference answers: what a meeting is costing while it runs, how many hours a commute has taken out of a year, how much detergent a load actually needs, and a few that exist for the pleasure of knowing — how many popcorn kernels would fill a room, what a hamster generates.
What is the most common mistake?
Quoting the playful ones as if they were measurements. A room filled with popcorn and a salary counted in bathroom breaks are arithmetic done honestly on premises chosen for fun; the number that comes out is exactly as solid as the assumption you fed it, which is the joke.
How accurate is it, and what are the limits?
Entirely fictional — teleporters do not exist, and this is pure entertainment.
