No, it's a new mall. And yeah, that page is currently down. In a few days (probably toward the end of the week) I'll release the new layout and you can pick a store. You'll all have plenty of time to choose locations, so don't worry about that much. I'm just seeing what stores are sticking around for now. I think I can assume all stores want to re-open, but I want to verify it. After all, to assume is to make an ass out of 'u' and 'Fleck.' (assufleck)

Why'd you wanna make an ass of me?

Okay! Mallboro is basically rebooted! Still gotta boot up Blitzball, Arena, and any other mini-games we want to revive, plus I have one change to make in the future (but not now). Hope everybody's schedules are clearing up to play again! I know mine is, so I'll be jumping in really soon!

BTW, all department stores (and technically Sphere Theater just based on logo) are based on existing stores. Just so that Count wouldn't feel lonely, I even looked up a UK department store. I hope I did my spoofs justice.

I'm afraid I don't get the UK department store reference Bob, care to enlighten me? I don't shop much XD Also, can I be a pain and ask if you can change the Sports Emporium to be VII instead of IV? You know what Jecht's like *Hopes you still have the psd file for the banner when asking this, or will feel like a right pain in the arse* If it makes you feel better, you know on google chrome when you open up a new tab and it lists your 8 most commonly viewed websites? TGP is first XD

Heh, aww. Well, it might be a bad reference, too, or maybe it's just a really ritzy store. Hurdy's is based on the store called "Harrod's." Sounds like it's some fancy-pants store with crazy escalators. I think it said it was in London. Google image search Harrod's and compare it to the Hurdy's logo and you'll see the similarities. Too bad it's not a popular enough store, but oh well, I tried. I'm still being Mr. Equality though!
I don't suppose you know of the other references (Sears, Macy's, JC Penny, Cinemark to an extent)?
Yeah, I still have the PSD. I'll make the adjustment. I'm going to update it when we are more finalized in everything like store placements and such.
Yay Top visited site! TGP fo' life!

Hell yeah it is! Ah, Harrods! I have been, but it's only got the one branch in London. Back in the day, you had to dress smartly just to enter the store. Suits and stuff! Not the case anymore, but its still very upper class. I can't say I remember the logo though, only been a couple of times, hence not getting the reference. It's popular and well-known, but they only keep the one branch in London as part of its prestigiousness. I... don't know the other references I'm afraid. Certainly don't get 'em over here! Edit: Hurrah for Ultemecia's return! Bob, you have a knack for playing mentally unhinged women

You mean Yunalesca, but yes! Woo! I was planning to play her in this reboot, I just hadn't gotten around to it yet. I also have one more person I know I'm going to play. Besides that, I'm not entirely sure, but we shall see!
Also, Count, I have the Jecht logo created. I'll upload it when we do the update for store locations and whatnot. So once all store managers have said where they want their stores, we'll make the big update. Also I can start to fill in lists of employees.

Yunalesca, yeah XD Brain fart there.
Are we using the little numbers on the map as our allotment locations?

Yeah, so just like "A3" or whatever. Sorry, I had a chart example for it, but I took it off temporarily so that people wouldn't be confused by an example (meaning, if I had a store on A3, I didn't want people to think that A3 was taken, since it was just an example). So just comment on the NORG post and say which spot you'd like.

Jecht, lamenting the lack of a 'J' block, has decided he wants D4.

Frig, Sephiroth just asked for it. Um. He'll take B5, then.

Okay, gotcha all in there. And yes, Loz, the arcade will remain. I actually decided to just leave all of the stores in place. The directory will be put together in a few days so that all of the stores can have official homes.
