That's as good a response as Tim could have hoped. He puts the real number of people who will attack without warning or provocation at 75%. Hope is a powerful motivator and, when coupled with the will to live, there are plenty of people, otherwise non-violent, who wouldn't think twice about braining a sleeping teenager to improve their odds.
But there was at least one other person out there actively trying sabotage the death game, and that was a comfort. He naively wished that they were all doing that. Human nature won't let that happen.
Tim starts a little at the description of Diana. Black hair - real black hair, is common when you consider the entire human race. However, with the name Diana, it's reasonable to eliminate Asian ethnicities, thereby narrowing the potential pool by billions. Latinas may still have the name. "I knew a Diana, in my world. Black hair, blue eyes, attractive. Kind, but you can tell by looking at her that she won't take any crap."
