I don't know about you, but I really think that Mario would be more middle-class. His dad owns a local pizzeria. Maybe I have a bad sense of how wealthy that would make Mario's parents, but I personally think that it would put him more in the middle-class. And when we are talking about the upper-class, we are talking about the extremely-wealthy, right?


I've worked for a pizzeria owned by a married couple. They have a very nice house that is at least upper-middle class and the husband drives a pretty pimped out f-350 and the wife has a caddy. Unless your pizzeria sucks, you make some real dough.

Lovely work, all! I am just not graphically talented in the least, so I am impressed by any and all iterations.

As to living situations, I think it's valid to say the player (or rather, the character's 'parents') choose where to live. For example, even if Mario's pizza place is wildly successful, his family might choose to live in the middle class section, just for funsies.

Max actually lives in the apartments at the north end of the map, which I see as just slightly above LI housing. It is a single parent household, after all, with three children. I'd say the only reason they aren't in the LI housing is because Max's mother, a nurse, regularly works double shifts, and half of Max's paycheck at the gym (which I'll say is near the mall, which will give her that reason to be at the mall, tada!) goes toward groceries and the like.

Also, since Jason, Max, and maybe one or two other characters (?) don't have cars, maybe we ought to discuss public transit?

It's a small town, I don't think there would be public transit. I think people either work in town, and walk/bike, or else work out of town and drive.

Jason appears to be the odd man out with the Mazda, and Iikka has thus far either walked everywhere or mooched rides off of other people. And, since all of our characters can be expected to gain some bird morphs eventually, travel across long distances shouldn't be too big an issue.

Like I said, I was not very sure. Thanks for the info, by the way.

That is a HUGE construction site. The original was like, the start of a new neighborhood or something. That's like half of Main Street.

I was just trying to make it so that the short cut would actually shave off a significant amount of time for our characters getting home. The only problem now is how would it be a shortcut for Max, because in all the maps in this thread, we would be taking the long way around for getting to Max's house (we would even have to backtrack to get to her house in the first one map).

Maybe she invites herself to go to Olivia's or Mario's?

Right, yeah, I'm worried about Max. She'll walk everyone to their houses just to cling talk.

There, y'all just cut through, and Max can walk people to their houses or something. :P

On that note, the IC is up!

Awesome, I'll be getting a post up hopefully tonight. I have been obscenely ill, which makes words difficult little atrocities.

So, how are everybody's posts coming along? I know that there might be a bit of a wait for DotCom's because she's so sick, but what of everybody else?

I will hopefully have a post up tomorrow.

Edit: Also, could we place the map on the OP of the OOC tab? Just for convenience's sake

Sorry I have not gotten a post up yet. I am still considering how I should start my first post. I will think over it tonight so that I can start writing tomorrow morning.

That's okay, take your time! I posted the map in the first post, as requested. Can I have a role call, just so I know that everybody is still around and working on their first posts? A simple 'I'm here' will suffice. :)

I am still here.

...And wondering where Wonderlandali is. They said they would be putting up the collab, and here we are with DotCom having oneupped us before they could.

I found this wiki (http://animorphs.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page) that is all about Animorphs. This site was referenced in the OP of the OOC post, so I decided to check it out.

Edit: Are we still considering the street and building names from wonderlandalli's map canon?

Edit 2: In process of writing post.

Sorry for the triple post, but my IC post is up. Sorry if I overstepped any boundaries by having Max talk.

For the most part.

For the most part, unless the players whose characters live in any of the subdivisions take issue with them. The main difference is that the high school is the one farthest north.
