Putting an omniscient being into the equation, the omniscient being knew which you would "choose". It was a fatalist choice.
You don't have to, though, since it's knowing wasn't what revoked your free will anyway. Even if it didn't know, the fatalism inherent in the sheer possibility of knowledge, with no actualization of that knowledge in any being, and no actualization of any world by any being, precluded any other outcome.
If the outcome of a future choice is set at a point in the past...and it must be, for that outcome to be known in the past, then no interceding set of circumstances or entities are relevant to that outcome. Your possible worlds have within them the nested assumption of the very thing you want to conclude. As do all possible worlds.

Quote:If world B is actual, then you chose to order sushi ... but it was possible for you to have chosen to order pizza instead. Therefore, you had the free will to choose sushi or pizza in world B, even though you end up choosing sushi.The question is not who or what knew, or which world is actual, but whether or not it's possible at all. If a being could know, even if a being did not know, it's not possible. If it was possible, then the being did not know..maybe it had a really good guess...but a good guess is not knowledge.
