My friend gave me his Oregon Trail to copy, so I played it (while watching the Chelsea vs. Liverpool football/soccer game) and saved my log. I need to find somewhere to put this so that it doesn't take up all the space in the post area, but for now I'll just put it here.
Note on names: I thought ZEe was going to be the name of the company, not my name. It also should have been ZӘӘ, but I didn't want to bother figuring out how to put the schwa in, plus doubted it was allowed. ZAD-Man is my name. Angela is a combination of the name I replace being "Charity" and her name was the closest friend's name to that I had as well as just wanting to put her name. For Sarah, the name was originally Sara, so I just added the "h" to make it her. The last name was originally some old name that I don't remember, so I just did one of the names I use in Worms games - Zyborg 3.0.
