I've found it. As I've read this tread it's allmost too obvious, she does misstakes just like the others are, and just as many times, but it's hard to see... I'll give you some time to think it through but I'll give you a clue... Allmost all of you have mentioned it allready.

BTW Cassie is NOT a vegetarian. I have the book here but it's in Swedish and I'm to tired to download the eBook right now so I can't give you any quot, but according to Ax she ate meat at least that time.

we see an mini-evolution of her through out the series.

at first, she sees nature as any person who hasn't experienced sees it.

in one the final books however, she sees it as a struggle to survive

"nature's color's are not green, their red...blood red" as i remember her saying.

yes, it was book nine.

Cassie HAS been wrong once. Remember, she voted to make David an animorph. If that was right in any way, I fail to see how...

Another time she's been wrong (although this doesn't really matter), is when she though 19 hours was 8 o'clock in book 14

in mm3, after jake died, cassie shut herself from the other animorphs during the sea battle...

I mean wrong like majorly wrong, as in did something wrong and got called on it and it didn't turn out to be the right thing in the end. Not just mistaken about something.

... unless I'm mistaking what you meant, none of the animorphs have ever been wrong then... and making david an animorph, wasn't the right thing in the end...

giving the box away was wrong. A few defected Yeerks does not justify indirectly getting Tom and Rachel killed, and the Yeerks escaping with it on their way to find The One.

still, she didn't know that was going to happen. i still think it was worth it in the long-run.

The other animorphs have been wrong plenty. Sorry you disagree, you're perfectly entitled to, but imo, Cassie was expressed as being entirely too perfect. Everything she did turned out to be the right thing in the end, even if she went against everyone else like a little martyr. But if anyone ELSE did their own thing, they always had to be proven to be wrong.

Jake, yeah, it's part of his character...
Rachel... well it was part of her character in #37...
Tobias... uh... oh right book 43
Marco... uh... can't recall one for him...
Ax... book 18...

besides Marco, I sorta see your point...

still, she didn't know that was going to happen. i still think it was worth it in the long-run.

Her not knowing that would happen, that's like giving a gun to your arch-enemy, and not knowing that he might use it to shoot your family.  If she couldn't predict that, she was not thinking.  And that's entirely the point.  She was not thinking.  Or at least she was thinking with her heart and not her head.  Which sounds like it would be a good thing, but in a war, it's really just stupid.

Jake, yeah, it's part of his character...
Rachel... well it was part of her character in #37...
Tobias... uh... oh right book 43
Marco... uh... can't recall one for him...
Ax... book 18...

besides Marco, I sorta see your point...

Marco?  Well, he tends to be portrayed as too ruthless in his decisions, just in general.  But now that I think about it . . . you know, you're actually right.  He isn't wrong very much either.  Huh.  That's interesting.  He's sort of the antithesis of Cassie.  Both almost always get vindicated, but for nearly opposite reasons.

Let me keep thinking a little while.  I'm sure I can come up with at least one time Marco screwed up.  Hmm.  Aha!

[spoiler]Book 35!  Marco looses control of his morphing because of his emotions over the situation with Nora, and craps on the guy's desk as a bird, remember?  Not to mention the general chaos of his mixed-morph problem.

Or how about every time Marco has ever entered the driver's seat of a car?  :D[/spoiler]

Still, he does, in fact, tend to be right more often than any of the other characters other than Cassie.  Veeeery interesting.  Well spotted, morf!

didn't cassie sort of help keep rachel's allergy a secret? For that matter, she also kept it a secret that marco messed up his spider morph...

She tried out Marco's spider morph herself first, even if she in an earlier book had abused Jake when he did the same thing. BTW I have some weak memory of someone saying that Cassie had it hard morphing a new animal the first time. But I think that was to scare Marco...

When I'm thinking about it. What misstakes have Marco, Tobias, Jake and Ax done? Right now I only remember that one about Rachels allergy... and if I'm not wrong that turned out well in the end too.

OK Tobias.... I don't think you have forgot what has happend to him.

Jake
-beated Marco when he discovered how it was with Tom
-have been a "one of them" (which you have mentioned yourself in another tread if I'm not wrong)
-sold everyone to Crayak
-book 11 (I don't think I have to explane more)
-Allow Cassie to save the skunk
-Allow Cassie to save the parrots
-Allow Cassie... See what I mean

Marco
-destroyed Cassies dads car (with Jake and Cassie)
-came to a party he wasn't invited too, as a mouse
-morphed a shark in the school
-run through Erek's hologram so everyone could see him

Cassie: (she agreed to take the car after all)
-morphed a squirrel, and allmost ended up as Tobias's food
-morphed a skunk and fell asleep
-morphed a spider alone at first time and tell Jake of when he do the same thing
-kept Rachel's allergy a secret...

Ax... I put my own head on that he goes in for doing mistakes...

But Cassie is STILL  my favourite

I mean in book 35 when marco mixes spider and skunk morph...
