* EvenEvilHasStandards: When the Neckebards reach Snake River, they hire a tribe of Native Americans to help them cross the river, only to realize too late that they'd fallen victim of a trap that the natives set to steal their belongings. [[spoiler: When the wagon capsized in the water and a massive emotional meltdown ensued, though, the chief felt guilty enough to order the tribe to fix their wagon for them.]]

* OffTheRails: When Chewbot suggested the forum goons to [[http://lparchive.org/Oregon-Trail-%28by-Chewbot%29/Update%2021/ vote via haiku]] (suggestions as to what to do next would be counted as two votes). They wouldn't stop posting new river crossing poems, even long after the voting was done and the results posted. Eventually they stopped haikus altogether and started writing full-length ballads and love songs based on the characters. Chewbot was flabbergasted.
** Updates 17 and 19 are when the story completely loses all handle on reality and turns into a high-stakes, explosive, bullet-riddled chase sequence, amongst several other unexpected plot twists.
* PaperThinDisguise: On the way to Fort Walla Walla, the Neckebards decide to disguise themselves as the Bardneckes [[spoiler: while they're on the run from colonial soldiers]], complete with one item to disguise themselves with (except for Sarah Jane, [[ButtMonkey who doesn't even get anything to disguise herself with.]])

* ShoutOut: The "peperony and chease" tombstone was of course a reference to the old "What do you want on your Tombstone?" pizza commercials. Anyone who played this game in school will know how often kids typed that in for an epitaph.
