FWIW, regarding Louisianne, Alton is going to be a big bedroom community. There's been some commentary on the Conculture board about the higher taxes, &c in the NAL and how it's lower in Louisianne, and thus there are a lot of NALiens/Coveys who live on the NAL border with LA to be able to take advantage of the price differences, even if they're crazy and use that weird metric system.
Alton probably has suburbs in Illinoise, as well, FWIW. BoArthur 21:59, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- I have taken the liberty of adding that to the section on Four Nations. Benkarnell 22:45, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
- Remember that to the East of Saint-Louis (/sænt luwi/)there's also the city of St. Louis (/seɪnt ˈluːɪs/). I wouldn't be surprised if Alton butted up against Saint Louis in Illinoise.

- Thank you! I did include Saint Louissss, but its yellow color might be hard to see against the yellow-green background. I'll make it bigger when I make some other minor fixes. Benkarnell

Wait, does Alton literally lie between the Mississippi and Missouri? If so, it is a community that needs to evacuate every few months of the years due to flooding... Seth 06:09, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
- Especially last year! The odd location should be chalked up to QSS - someone (Dan?) had written that a town called Alton was part of Ouisconsin, and someone (Padraic?) had written that the Mississippi-Illinois confluence was part of the Illinois-Ouisconsin border. So I simply moved Alton from *here*'s to that little wedge and declared the wedge to be Ouisconsian territory. I suppose I can change the name of that town, though. *Here* it's more-or-less St. Charles, Missouri. Benkarnell 14:20, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
Ever Moving Alton
--wait-- so why did it move again? BoArthur 14:14, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
- I had always wanted it in the same place as St. Charles, Missouri *here* - a known population center, presumably a place where flooding is not so severe. I had just gotten it wrong twice :-/. Benkarnell 17:31, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
