The input is taken from a negotiation between two participants who take the role of campsite neighbors and negotiate for Food, Water, and Firewood packages, based on their individual preferences and requirements. Given an utterance and recent dialogue context containing past 3 utterances (wherever available), output Yes if the utterance contains the small-talk strategy, otherwise output No. small-talk is a cooperative negotiation strategy. It is used for discussing topics apart from the negotiation, in an attempt to build a rapport with the opponent. For example, discussing how the opponent is doing during the pandemic or sharing excitement for the camping trip.

[Q]: Context: 'Hello! I am going on an expedition and am in need of provisions. The risk is much, the need is great, but the rewards are even greater! I am asking that you might allow me to have 3 firewood, 2 food, and 2 water.' 'Why do you need so much firewood?🙂' 'My camping expedition is in the far reaches of the north, away from civilization. I've already lost three fingers to frostbite, and I can ill afford to lose another. In short, I need the firewood - for fire. And warmth.'
Utterance: 'Sorry to hear about your problems. Are you going to Canada this time?'
[A]: Yes


[Q]: Context: 'thanks  that would be great!  I also need an extra package of firewood, I will probably need it cooking.  Do you have a spare package of it as well?'

[Q]: Context: 'Perfect!  I'm a northerner, so the firewood is all yours!  I'll need lot's of water to keep hydrated after the hike, and I'll probably be pretty hungry too.' 'My spouse calls me a water buffalo so I'm pretty water dependent if you couldn't tell.  ' 'That's good.  Best way to stay healthy is with water.  How about you take 1 water and all the firewood?'
Utterance: 'I need at least one ration of food.  Would it be ok with me:  3 firewood and 1 each of food and water.  If you are ok with that, I am too.'
