Hypothetical: If you were aboard the Titanic.
Would you have lived or died? Find out here and I'll let you know.
Tell me if you want to be a man, or if you'll take on the role of either gender, and I'll roll the dice for you and assign you a real person who was on the ship.* (If you're a woman, let me know too and I can give you a female dice roll.) If you don't tell me, I'll assume you're a guy. I'll let you know the person's name, age, origin, embarkation point, destination, passenger class if they were a passenger, and their department and job if they were on the crew. In some cases we don't know so you'll get a blank, but the information is pretty good. Oh, and if you were a passenger your crew stuff will come back as unknown, and vice versa if you were crew. There was a small handful of people who were both passengers and crew. The ship's orchestra and the Guarantee Workers were the two groups listed in both classes. (Guarantee workers were the expert repair guys who were assigned to the maiden voyage to make repairs of anything new that was broken. They apparently didn't have expertise in major hull repairs.) You're then welcome to look up more detail about the person if you can find it. Some of them have interesting stories. So sign up in the thread and I'll let you know. * For some reason I'm missing a small number of people, but I've got about 98 percent of them in my database. If you died and your body was recovered, here are the ships that recovered you, based on your body ID number: MB CS Mackay-Bennett (bodies 1306) M CS Minia (bodies 307323) MM CGS Montmagny (bodies 326329) A SS Algerine (body 330) O RMS Oceanic (bodies 331333) I SS Ilford (body 334) OT SS Ottawa [57] (body 335) If you survived, you can go here to see the story of your particular lifeboat. Hard lifeboats were labeled 1 through 16, and four collapsible lifeboats were labeled A through D. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifebo..._the_lifeboats Last edited by Rain Man; 02-16-2019 at 09:00 PM.. |

Hey, it worked! Nice strategy. You were in the last of the hard lifeboats to get off the ship, and they did a good job of picking up people in the water, so it was pretty crowded and a close call.

You had a pretty nice cabin for a few days. So you've got that going for you.

It's kind of interesting to look up the names. There's a lot of information about what happened to some of them.

If I was on the Titanic, I 'd try to stick it in Kate Winslet's butt.

Ah. A trimmer was one of the guys who shoveled coal. So maybe that wasn't great for picking up chicks in first class.

Man, you had only begun to live. And you would have been the perfect age to enjoy the early NFL games of the Hammond Pros football team. Maybe you would've even played. That makes me sad.

There was a pretty multi-cultural passenger list on the Titanic. Emphasis on 'was', I guess.
