Ages of the Fake TPOT contestants

For more information on how I got all these numbers, please consult this **page on age averaging**, which you can only access from here.

This page is designed to give an answer to the question that is surely buzzing through your mind right now:

> How old are the contestants and other characters in *Fake TPOT*?
>

That's a bit rude; in many places it's considered a *faux pas* to ask another person that question, as if old age is the most horrible stage of life to be in. But as you go through each episode of *Fake TPOT*, no doubt the subject of age crosses your mind. After all, I've gone into unnecessary detail about the contestants' nationalities, their cultural backgrounds and where they were on the day Ingrid Bergman announced her marriage plans. So why shouldn't I talk about age?

It's a rather long story that I think is best suited for a blog post, not a main page, so I'll just say that your speculation ends today, because you will find out on this page when every present-day and former BFDI contestant came into existence and had their age changed at least once.

In other words, their ages.

Note that only the ages that a contestant was after 1 January 1960 will be listed—that is the year in which anything even remotely resembling BFDI existed. For any year before, simply do an equation of subtraction or calculate the age as you would for any other person in the same period.

## Note on birthdays

After a contestant is age-averaged, the day they "turn a year older" will mostly be different from their actual birthday. While the contestants are aware of their new age after the "ayaying" process, they do not know the day they *actually* turn a year older and continue to think of their birthdays at birth as their true birthdays, since those dates are (usually) so ingrained in their memory.

This is similar to how many people consider the day their pets were born to be their birthdays, never to be changed through the years, despite the fact that other animals age differently to humans.

## Dates and places of birth of TPOT competitors and aged BFDI competitors

The dates and places of birth of the contestants are listed in the table below. Their ages at any given time (relevant to the series) can be found on these pages:

Contestants' ages (**#–L**)
Contestants' ages (**M–Z**)

## Dates and places of birth of unaged BFDI competitors

David, Dora, Evil Leafy, Nonexisty and Roboty do not have an age properly so called. However, all but Nonexisty have some sort of significant date attached to them.

Original dates and places of birth for the non–age-averaged contestants of BFDI
 **Do****ra** | 14 August 1945
 **Evil Leafy** | 27 July 1944
 **R****o****b****oty** | 5 January 1963

## Dates and places of birth of failed TPOT débutants (and other canon characters)

Also known as the failed TPOT debuters, each member of this set of characters has a date of birth. The way to calculate their age is a bit simpler than the multi-step process as seen for the other characters.

These are the dates used to calculate the ages of the failed débutants from their dates of birth to **14 December 1971**, the date of the averaging of the ages of the contestants for whom the text in the *AA'd?* column reads Y (as in *yes*). For more information on their ages after this date, see the detailed page on age-averaging mentioned above.

## Notes

1. ↑ 1 January 1962 if not an original contestant of season 1.
2. ↑ 2.0 2.1 For reference purposes (like if you wanted to make a Wikipedia article about any of the contestants, as in "so-and-so is an **English** contestant...".
3. ↑ 8-Ball is from Mozambique, but his elimination happened when Mozambique was a Portuguese colonial territory; by the time he was back in contact with the outside world, the country was independent—but he had spent more time with his fellow contestants than with his new compatriots.
4. ↑ 4.0 4.1 Despite not having been age-averaged, Profily and Umtaya are in this list because they both competed in TPOT for at least one minute. (This is why Nonexisty is not in this list with them.)
5. ↑ It's possible; some people don't have religions, so why should they have an age?
6. ↑ 6.0 6.1 This character is a robot to whom the age-averaging process does not apply.
7. ↑ This column indicates whether the given contestant's age has been averaged.
8. ↑ 8.0 8.1 8.2 8.3 8.4 8.5 8.6 8.7 8.8 8.9 This character never tried to début in an episode of *Fake TPOT*; however, the dates and places of their birth are included here for the sake of completeness, as they did appear in BFDI episodes considered canon in both the *Real* and *Fake* series.
