New Zealand, yeah, it's surprisingly tactical. Put in just one finger to minimise your profile, or lots if you want to try and shaft the person next to you.

this place is not a place of honor

no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here

nothing valued is here

what is here was dangerous and repulsive to us

this place is best shunned and left uninhabited

Wry and wise,
but also very sexual.

All of these choosing rhymes are deterministic so you choose the result when you pick the starting thing. A simpler, more honest alternative to this would just be to pick the thing.

There are advantages to the rhyme: it creates tension and creates a layer of mystical indirection to the choice that makes it seem it is not the rhymer's choice, to the very gullible. Better alternatives that incorporates these aspect is to pretend to choose based on a coin flip or dice roll and not allow the participants to see the coin or dice at all, or only flourishing your chosen side. Using mime to roll imaginary dice into your cupped hands, peeking into your cupped fingers and then 'vanishing' the dice may allow you to draw on both the mystical and the impartiality of random chance. A high effort/high investment version of this is to use loaded dice or single-sided coins.

If, on the other hand you do want to legitimately allow 'fate' to decide a person from a group, then your best alternative is the ancient game of Morra, the Shish-Nu (or 'Chin Chin') variant for larger groups.

Happy choosing, OP!

I've got a pocket full of cheese🧀, and a garden full of trees🌴.

One we used to use as kids in the playground was

It
Bit
Dog
poo poo
You
Are
Not
It.

And then the person you landed on was not it. Or if you wanted to streamline the process, you changed Not into Now, and the person you landed on was then it.

I'm accidentally a suicide bomber!

Definitely played “bubblegum” where everybody stuck out their hands with their choice of fingers extended and then you counted around the ring (who ever told everybody to “shoot” was “1”, always go to the left) based on the total digits and the last person was “it”

E. It was basically “Morra” or whatever but you didn’t try to guess the total at all, just counted around the ring.

That's pretty interesting right there. That asymmetry with the shooter makes me wonder if there's a sick exploit for that.
