I was playing the game last week and didn't remember the date it's not like it’s life and death (right? Lol) we can just scrap it or just push the date up a bit so our characters will be able to have jobs. I don't care we can do whatever. I just realized we should both give our characters gas masks for the spores (I don’t remember if we gave our characters gas masks)

We could push the date back 2-3 years. We wouldn't have access to the Bloaters (the big guys that fling fungi things at you), but the clickers would at least exist by then, and it would work out in our favor by allowing our characters to be old enough.

As for the gas masks, neither of us added one to our inventory. I figured the average civilian probably doesn't have one, but since its been a few years into the apocalypse, I suppose they could snag one from some industrial store or an abandoned military checkpoint.
