Shining1 |
![]() ![]() ![]() Yin and Q^cubed both live in Korea, but both are otherwise engaged right now, it would seem. I live in New Zealand - which is not part of Australia, Asia or the world for that matter |
ARES 7 |
![]() ![]() Germany Australia 1 |
Aredhran |
![]() ![]() ![]() Yin and Q� are engaged ? ![]() Instead of calling the region Australia, why don't you guys call it Oceania (that's how we name it in French, Australia is just that big island where Mathilda Waltzes, Kangaroo box and people live upside down Aredhran |
Brain Reynolds FIRAXIS |

HMFIC |
![]() ![]() ![]() Another vote for USA, however, since I live in Georgia, that would be THE SOUTH. |
itdoesntfit |

Veracitas |
![]() ![]() ![]() It appears that your initial assumption was incorrect, Vinny. I live in Virginia, USA. I think Asia and Australia rightfully deserve their own spaces (considering how much larger they are than we). Thus, Asia: 2 --Veracitas |
jimmytrick |
![]() ![]() ![]() Well, I recently moved to ACOL CITY. But I hail from North Carolina. We are the folks who messed up and shot Stonewall and cost the South the war of Northern Agression. I and all my kin, therefore, live in eternal shame for that deed. That makes the count: Asia: 2 and, Eternal Shame: 1 |

whizkid |
![]() ![]() Hey Hamlet, you from Singapore? Me too - just updated my profile.. I saw from one of the threads that Laurens is from Singapore too, why hadn't he post here? |
Hamlet |
![]() ![]() ![]() Whizkid: wow...another S'porean on this forum. Heheheh...as we know our lovely government doesn't really approve of the internet nor of discussion forums :-) R u sure Laurens is S'porean? heh...mail me...there are too few SMACers 'round these parts. Hamlet |
MikeH II |
![]() ![]() ![]() UK so assuming we're in Europe: Asia: 2 This looks a lot like the world use of the internet statistics, funny that. |
Bossman |
![]() ![]() ![]() I am the bossman and I get twice as many votes so that makes 2 therefore as im in the UK: Asia: 2 |
DrPhibes |
![]() ![]() ![]() I'm pissed at the "other" category -- most of the world (by sq km and population), contrary to most english speakers assumptions, is not USA or Europe. I live in Japan, but it's just a question of timing and accident. Cheers |
aceplayer |
![]() ![]() ![]() DrPhibes - dont be insulted - ppl tend to group the smaller categories together else it might read : Earth - 44 |

![]() ![]() ![]() Calling from California, USA (The country that's giving up our freedoms and privacy as fast as we can.) I realize that the origin of this topic was just to see how many Europeans vs. US players were on the net, but why not keep the individual country names on the list? Then we won't have to worry about how to group them together on the list. :-) |
Zoetrope |
![]() ![]() ![]() I reside (and was born) in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. DrPhibes: most fluent English speakers live in Asia (about a billion or so in South and South-East Asia, and the numbers are rapidly increasing in China), and there are several hundred million English speakers in Africa. A few countries have low rates of English usage: for example Taiwan, Japan, Indonesia, parts of southern Europe, and of course France and its colonies, but they're the exception. |

DrPhibes |
![]() ![]() ![]() Zoetrope -- how's the Bombers going this year? You a football fan? Has Wayne Carey kicked his millionth goal yet? What's up with the Swans and Plugger? Mukashi mukashi (a long time ago) i lived in North Richmond, just next to Carlton brewery -- what a wicked place! You ever check out the Bakers Arms? If it's still there it's a great pub. BTW i meant "native" english speakers (kind of a racist terminology, but one we seem to be stuck with). I just get tired of confronting euro-american centricism, and the "other" category rankled. Thanks for pointing out the fact that there are more people in Asia and Africa (showing their vast intellectual expertise) speaking english (as a second language) than there are "native" speakers. Why the Japanese have not mastered this (despite their also vast intellectual expertise) is something i often ponder on the train to Tokyo. Maybe something to do with their retreat into the "inner world" after WWII. Cheers |
DrPhibes |
![]() ![]() ![]() Y'all, Japan being a part of Asia (last time i checked) that makes Asia 3. |
Jeje2 |
![]() ![]() ![]() A vote for Finland!! Asia 2 |
sir_penguin |
![]() ![]() ![]() British Columbia, Canada, and since Canada is not only the second biggest country in the world, but the best country in the world in which to live (according to the UN) and has the 6th least corrupt government in the world (#1 is Denmark, and the US is undoubtably way down there near 300), and since we have a way better football league than any of you, I think that we should get our own category. That makes: USA-24 No offence intended to anyone, |
Alaspin |
![]() ![]() Switzerland Part of Europe (even if they don't like this very much) USA-24 |
MatFis |
![]() ![]() ![]() Germany USA-24 P.S: Switzerland is only a part from hisself and nothing more (splendet isolation) |
SlipperyWombat |
![]() ![]() Vancouver, Canada. Pleased to meetcha all. USA - 24 Hey Titan, don't sweat it. We're only 20 votes behind the US, its still close! |
ddayjoe44 |
![]() ![]() ![]() Hey, I gotta add one for our side of the planet! Let's add another Claifornian to the list! That would make it; (IN APLHABETICAL ORDER) Asia = 3 Gee, that would put me in the leading country AND HEMISPHERE! COOL! Smoke 'em if ya got a PLANET BUSTER!! Dday |

![]() ![]() ![]() "POST" scriptum ![]() if you visit ACOL (www.planetsid.com) you'll find most of the ppl who are here, more oriented to MP games, and there's a feature for analyzing members thru a pivot table. If you classify by location, there you have your poll ready toread! |
TurkeyTom |
![]() ![]() Australia. So that makes it:- DrPhibes - The bombers are on top of the ladder - Carey is having an o.k. year, the Swans are up and down and are presently 9th, Plugger has broken the AFL/VFL all time total number of goals of 1299 this year. 4 matches to the finals. |
will |
![]() ![]() ![]() With the count getting close, I feel obliged to chime in. I live in the Virginia suburbs of DC, inside the Beltway. Although many would say that our governmental enclave isn't part of the USA, I disagree. That makes it: USA 27 |

![]() ![]() ![]() Woohoo! 100th post ![]() Wow, I was gone for a week and this thread exploded with replies. Now I didn't mean to insult any nations with "other" but look at the current counts; already 6 categories. The original intent was to see how many Americans and Europeans there were. Feel free to break it down into 1,000,000 catagories if you want, but I don't think that making it any more precise is going to help. USA: 30 |
