I don't like to say where I live, but I'm fine with wherever it is that we "fight." :)
I've got five of the eight pages done for my civil war event, and all of the backgrounds vaguely portray a cramped New-York-esque city.

You know it! >:B

I flit between Boston and England.

I like flitting.

*Flits*

YES! WE SHOULD ALL FIGHT ON TOP OF SENATE HOUSE, LONDON!! I AM ENGLISH!!!

this place is actually HUGE!

but I have an idea…

IS THERE A TELEPORTER IN THE HOUSE? WE NEED A TELEPORTER! PREFEABLY ONE WHO USES PORTALS!

Just like in Civil War #7 when Cloak teleports everyone to manhattan, we could have someone's powers malfunctioning and teleporting the fight to different places!

Croydon, South London, England.

I wouldn't recommend it. It's full of chavs.

Posted at 12:03PM, Mar. 29, 2007

Yeah I hail from Maine (not something I'm proud of) At least I grew up in Boston.

Posted at 12:03PM, Mar. 29, 2007

Hey, MAine is cool it's all maine-y

Posted at 2:03PM, Mar. 30, 2007

There should be some sort of snack production factory so that there can be a food fight. And a school too so that bad guys can hold poor innocent kids hostage T_T

I'm from Wiltshire, England… which isn't the best place to meet fellow crazy people like me. There seem to be a hell of a lot of old people.

Eh, just do it at a city form of the Duck. We'll call it…DrunkDuck-ville/city/shire.

Posted at 3:03PM, Mar. 30, 2007

Duckville
Drunkshire

Posted at 8:03PM, Mar. 30, 2007

Drunkshire,AKA The Platinum City

Posted at 10:03PM, Mar. 30, 2007

Platinum City sounds awesome. :D

Duckville or Duckton also sound good, especially with a "new" in front; "New Duckton".

But Platinum City sounds great. ^_^

Posted at 1:03AM, Mar. 31, 2007

how about Duckburg… wait I think that's taken. We could just use the same initials. Platinum city I think is the best idea so far though.

Posted at 5:03AM, Mar. 31, 2007

The ending "city might be a bit over done though. Platinum Bay? Platinapolis? Platipus?

Platinum something it probably the best idea.

Wherever this ends up being, we'll need a design as soon as possible.

Posted at 6:03AM, Mar. 31, 2007

I say Platinum Bay or Platinum Beach. If we are going to have a creepy waterside abandoned carnival, it'd be best to keep it seaside.

Posted at 7:03AM, Mar. 31, 2007

It would also allow for fantastic water/ice battles over the bay. (For flying, swimming, speedy or ice powered heroes)

I personally think that Platinum Bay sound the best. Should we work on a city map?

Posted at 7:03AM, Mar. 31, 2007

Certainly. I tacked on the rest of the suggestions to my big list of things we should have in the city. (Though truth to tell, I am a bit morally opposed to the holding children hostage thing, but it's everyone's city, so..)

Now a map is good and all, but anyone good at drawing backgorunds care to draw out the actual locations to complement the map? Y'know, how they'd look in the background?

Posted at 7:03AM, Mar. 31, 2007

You can count me out on cityscapes(Unless you feel that boxes with labels are sufficient), but I could probably make a map showing where everything is. That way it could be consistant.

We also need secret headquarters for Riot and Zac; because it would be cool.

Posted at 7:03AM, Mar. 31, 2007

More power to you if you want to do both. You go girl.

Posted at 8:03AM, Mar. 31, 2007

Sure, I'll go for it. Unfortunately I don't live in a city; so it might look like it's designed by a deranged platipus. Expect them up later today.

Posted at 6:04AM, Apr. 1, 2007

Meh, sorry this took me so long (I even still have to sketch the places) My parents took me out bowling and stuff, it was fun.

In anycase Here's the Map:

And here's the Key(Should include most of what Hero asked for):
1. Platinum Bay Penitentiary (prison)
2. Platinum Bay City Hall
3. Bayside Cemetery
4. Platinum Bay Community Hospital
5. Gothic Cathedral which towers above the area with its clocktower (St. Michaels)
6. Ambrose Towers mini-mall (Abandoned after a tidalwave hit the area; half finished)
7. Gladchip Industries HQ
8. The Daily Sand (Newspaper/television station(Channel 4 news))
9. 97.6 Platinum bay Weather and News
10. Florence Island(With secret seaside cave)
11. Bayside First Methodist church
12. St. Augustine's Catholic Church (Abandoned after tidalwave hit the area)
13. Aster's Carnival of the Bizarre (Abandoned, even before the tidal wave hit; due to bankruptcy)
14. Oakland Park
15, 16, 17. Platinum Bay City schools (Elementary, middle and high)
18. Platinum Bay convention Center (Currently hosting The Platinum area Comicon)
19. Zac Base- a mountain complex with barracks, and other military-like features; well established)
20. Riot Base- an underwater resort and casino that went bankrupt and was abandoned, but Hero fixed it up and it now serves as Riot's base of operations. It can only be accessed from Florence Island, the sewer-tunnels, and the Pier 56 restaurant.

Yeah, I can understand how some people could find that offensive. Perhaps I've been reading too much Death Note ^_^ …Hmmmm, maybe the kids could hold the villians (or heros) hostage instead, lol. Could be used to add in a few extra cameos :)

Gwen, that map is friggin awesome! It would have taken me forever to get all the locations situated so well. Looks like a perfect Platinum Bay (or whatever we're going to call it).

Posted at 10:04AM, Apr. 1, 2007

wuts the biggest city in the whole world…

Posted at 10:04AM, Apr. 1, 2007

wuts the biggest city in the whole world…

Tokyo population wise, Mount Isa in Australia area wise, at least I belive that's correct.

That's a fine lookin' city Guen. I love the whole abandoned section by the beach.

Posted at 11:04AM, Apr. 1, 2007

That's really well thought out for a off the cuff city. *thumbs up* you're clearly top shelf.

Posted at 2:04PM, Apr. 1, 2007

i think we should use gwen's city, well thought out plus it'd be funny to have fights in school that include explosives =P, my dream come true
