What you could do is make a table containing every single splash text using like so:
local splashText = {"Hello world", "World hello"}
Then, you can select a splash text using this small piece of code splashText[1] where the [1] is the position of the string in the table.
To select a random position in the table, you can use math.random like so:
math.random(amount of splash texts)
Math.random will choose any whole number between 1 and the amount of splash texts you have.
Math.random isn't truly random, so to make the randomness more randomy, you can add math.randomseed(tick()) in the line before you use math.random.
Finally, you put all of those together and it should choose a random splash text every time you play.
