Futuristic Settlers vs. the GPS Drawing

Our GPS drawing did not turn out the way we expected. Inspired by the Kwon and Rogoff readings, we decided to make a pseudo settlement on the beach. We connected early Milwaukee Fur Traders and the lake, and we were each going to make our own forts using the GPS drawing. However, the GPS in combonation with the Everytrail App was really uncooperative and wouldn't draw straight lines... it even marked us as standing out in the middle of Lake Michigan, which was completely incorrect. After multiple tries, our hopes of a virtually drawn lake settlement was terminated.
