Over 100 students participated in the simulation exercise.	Placing the fishing fleet onto the map.
Sharon - a tough game administrator.	Dorothy - a very secretive administrator.

It was hard to keep track of each tables progress as there was a constant buzz of activity.	Nicole - a very efficient game administrator.
Checking back on some terms - hmmm, replenishment rate?	Hong Kong - a relevant place to consider sustainable fishing concepts.
