Off Topic: Your Geographic Location

[Saxon]

While off topic, the large response to the Gender and Age polls led me to believe that quite a few members of the forum are interested in this information. For those who do not approve, my apologies. Please be patient and indulge the rest of us nosey people.

Where do you live? I have broken things down by continent, as typing the name of every country in the world would have taken a little bit longer than I have on my coffee break. I was not strict on this and in honour of the game creators, I have included a region not normally considered a continent. I thought about doing time zones, as that would have an influence on MP, but did not think it was as interesting as geographic location.

Is Hawaii Oceana?

[Saxon]

Hawaii. Hmm, I would go for Oceania, it feels more correct than North America, which would be politically more accurate. Let the spirits move you to a divinely inspired answer, this is a pretty free form poll.

I have gone from 100% at the start of the poll down to 10% in about two hours. Hate to see where I am tomorrow morning…

Yeah, and so far this region is close to 50%...
And some people are saying that the populatin boom is in East Asia

The game is written in scandinavia and most of the beta testers needed to speak those Languages so I think there is a large active group here.

The poll also started in the middle of the night for most of the western hemisphere. As I write this the Left Coast isn't even awake yet, and as I understand it, Californians don't do anything before one in the afternoon and three or four lattes.

Check back in 24 hours and you'll see a better representation.

Heehee. Im in California (Vacaville, mid between SF and Sac).
But I dont really count since I have one of those jobs where you have to get there before everyone else wakes up. So your point is probably good.

I'm in Las Vegas, Nevada!

I'm about thirty minutes from Gandalf in Concord and I think you meant "tall, non-fat, decaf peppermint lattes" unwise
