Think carefully, because your decision could mean the difference between life and death (not to mention my respect or derision).
Many kinds of people made the trip to Oregon.
You may:
If you're of a certain age (I, admittedly, am), you know this pre-expeditionary inquiry derives from the seminal game, The Oregon Trail. And it likely meant that you had a substitute teacher that day. And if this ain't ringing any bells, you can always play the original game here, something I highly recommend.
I quizzed participants at this week's trivia sesh on two aspects of the Oregon Trail. Where does the trail begin? (Independence, Missouri.) And as a tie-breaker, how long is the trail in total? (2,170 miles.)
Here's the round-by-round breakdown: Big Daddy narrowly took Round One by one point, with a five-way tie (!) for third place. Ranting & Raving eked out a one-point Round Two win and then went on to face (and defeat) $$$ in a Round Three tie-breaker. US (no points for team name originality, unfortunately) bested the White Rockers by a point to take Round Four. In another tie-breaker, Nic and the Cages topped Ranting & Raving in Round Five. And in our final Round, $$$ returned to send R&R packing.
It was a great night overall, with 16 teams competing throughout the night, and it was fan-freaking-tastic to be back out on the porch.
Oh no, would you look at that.
Congratulations to all of the week's winners:
