TGCid999 (12:50:33 AM): how long did it take you
ModestEmily (12:51:32 AM): well, the first round, i played for about 45 minutes and matt drowned first, then tiffany got typhoid and a snake bite and died, then kelsey died of fever, ethan died of exhaughstion, and i died last of measels
ModestEmily (12:51:45 AM): then the last round too me about 10 or 15 minutes and everyone lived.
ModestEmily (12:51:49 AM): and i shot a bear!
ModestEmily (12:52:06 AM): took* not too
TGCid999 (12:52:59 AM): nice
TGCid999 (12:53:03 AM): Hmmm
ModestEmily (12:53:15 AM): it was 125 pounds and i could only carry 100 back to the wagon
ModestEmily (12:53:18 AM): which is a damn lie
TGCid999 (12:53:25 AM): I couldnt help but notice I was not in the name of people who died
TGCid999 (12:53:31 AM): lol
ModestEmily (12:53:34 AM): lol
TGCid999 (12:53:35 AM): it always is shit
ModestEmily (12:54:29 AM): i mean, i loaded up the wagon with lots of supplies in the beggining and they're telling me that after i've used up all my food and a few other things that i can't somehow manage to squeeze that extra 25 pounds of bear in there?
TGCid999 (12:55:01 AM): its carrying it back to the wagon
TGCid999 (12:55:11 AM): which is stupid
TGCid999 (12:55:15 AM): still
ModestEmily (12:55:29 AM): well then they need to get an acurate description of your age, weight, and strength.
TGCid999 (12:55:41 AM): lol
TGCid999 (12:55:44 AM): like D&D
ModestEmily (12:55:44 AM): because suuuuure, in 6th grade i couldn't have carried that much bear to the wagon.
ModestEmily (12:55:53 AM): but now, i could carry a shit load of bear.
TGCid999 (12:58:54 AM): Its true
TGCid999 (12:59:16 AM): especially if you were the type of person hunting bear and fording rivers
ModestEmily (12:59:18 AM): and some anti venom for those damn snake bites
TGCid999 (12:59:28 AM): so true
ModestEmily (12:59:28 AM): and some anti typhoid for whatever that is
ModestEmily (12:59:41 AM): you know what, i only forded the river once.
TGCid999 (12:59:44 AM): penisilin
ModestEmily (12:59:57 AM): i hired a ferry twice and and an indian once and caulked it and floated another time.
TGCid999 (1:00:14 AM): nice
ModestEmily (1:00:15 AM): i can't risk getting stuck in the mud and not making it to oregon before winter
ModestEmily (1:00:24 AM): and the one time i did ford the river, matt drowned
ModestEmily (1:00:30 AM): so we see where that got me
TGCid999 (1:00:47 AM): very true
ModestEmily (1:01:49 AM): and, for like 6 days in a row, no one would trade with me.
ModestEmily (1:01:52 AM): and i had no food
TGCid999 (1:02:11 AM): that blows
ModestEmily (1:02:13 AM): and couldn't shoot a bear or deer or squirrel or rabbit because i kept being put in the middle of all the trees and rocks
TGCid999 (1:02:26 AM): thats how disintery gets you
ModestEmily (1:02:28 AM): which is gay because if they're going to do that, you should be able to climb a tree
ModestEmily (1:02:46 AM): and there's no option that lets you eat your dead friends
ModestEmily (1:02:57 AM): because that's what the Donner party did
ModestEmily (1:03:01 AM): so it should be an option
TGCid999 (1:03:04 AM): it was made for sixth graders
ModestEmily (1:03:56 AM): but not developed by 6th graders. so clearly it was not thoroughly planned or revised by anyone who was actually on the oregon trail.
TGCid999 (1:04:08 AM): I think cancabalism is a little to mature of an option
ModestEmily (1:04:21 AM): but practical. you've read lord of the flies.
ModestEmily (1:04:32 AM): kids need to know how to survive when life gets tough
TGCid999 (1:04:39 AM): written by someone way out of the sixth grade
TGCid999 (1:04:46 AM): lol
ModestEmily (1:04:47 AM): what kid would know how to shoot a bear?
TGCid999 (1:04:48 AM): true
TGCid999 (1:04:58 AM): guns are pretty simple
ModestEmily (1:05:07 AM): but aim is not a birth gift
TGCid999 (1:05:12 AM): I could have if need be shot a bear in sixth grade
TGCid999 (1:05:38 AM): actually aim and good eyes are partial skill and partial natural talent
TGCid999 (1:05:47 AM): and I stop this now
ModestEmily (1:05:48 AM): i suppose i could have too, but recoil will knock a 6th grader on their ass... and if the bullet did not make contact with the bear, then they could come tear you to shreds
TGCid999 (1:05:59 AM): we are fighting about oregan trail logisitics
ModestEmily (1:06:02 AM): lol
TGCid999 (1:06:14 AM): that is very true
