So my brand new LifeDrive froze up installaing some new software, and my last Sync was about 36 hours old. After restoring all sorts, I finally the machine to boot again.

However, I've got a 36-hour old VillageSim file. When I last left my hopeless vilalge, I had about 18 villagers and maybe 1500 food. When I bring them up again now, I have only 5, with 13 corpses lying around. And 3000 food.

My villagers faithfully carry all the decomposing bodies to the graveyard. But I have no idea what they died of.

My youngest now is about 20, so I don't think they could have all died of old age. Some were pushing 60, but others were 30 and 40.

Any ideas?

Note: The only events that happened when I brought the system up again was the Whale event (that I rescued). And thankfully 3 of the 5 are female.
