[EX Q]: Context: 'Hello. I'm going to do a lot of hiking on my camping trip and need as much water as possible. I'm also planning a bonfire with fellow campers in the area, so I'd like as much firewood as possible. How about I keep the water and firewood and you keep the food?' 'That doesn't work for me. I will also need extra water because I drink a lot. How about we start by saying you get the firewood, and I'll take the food?' 'OK, but how do we split up the water? Because it sounds like we both need some. What if you take all the food and I take all the firewood and then I get two waters and you get one extra?'
Utterance: 'I would prefer to have 2 waters since I agreed to give you all the firewood.'
[EX A]: No

[EX Q]: Context: 'I understand. I am not willing to give up any firewood, but I'd be willing to do a trade of 1 food for 1 water. So 3 firewood for us, 1 water for us, and 1 food for us.  ' 'Sorry, that won't work for me. ☹️ My counteroffer is I will take three waters and two food packages and give you all of the firewood and 1 food.  I am running out of time, and if we don't agree, we will both lose out, so please consider this last offer.🙂' 'Okay I can live with that. '
Utterance: 'Great! Let's finalize then . . .'
[EX A]: No
