How many of you aren't Americans?
« on: May 19, 2006, 03:52:55 pm »
Just curious.

HAd an idea a while back with DH before he disappeared (to EVE or wherever) about an Amercans vs the world server
(actually was America vs Canada, but we got the rest of you so...)
Basicallay all 8 races vs all 8 races
And was just curious how many people here were from somewhere else..

Not saying it will or even should happen- just kinda curious about the make up..

I am Greek, born and raised in Australia and American in spirit. Does that count as a non American?

Netman - like the rest of us Australians, you are Australian and your parents were from somewhere else so just call yourself Australian and dont confuse the foreigners!!

So I am Australian too (and my parents were from somewhere else also if that is important).

How about a political 4 way?  Right Wing - Centrists - Leftwing - (self avowed) Wingnuts?

Indifferent


However "Die Stupid Non-Canadian" is alot more catchy than "Die Right/middle/left winger"

And there was a D2 Hockey game played?
And no one told me?

How rude.

Hmmm ... I started out thinking it should be Ginger fans vs Mary Anne fans ... then realized that (given the predelictions (sp?) of some of our membership) we'd probably have to toss the other castaways in too.

So which races go with each of the seven castaways, and which one goes with the SS Minnow?

Bad idea.  :thumbsdown:  Politics has no place at Dynaverse.net.

Though I did not clarify it my intent was not to bring political discussion here but to get the political sides to play against one another as I think the two wings are probably fairly equal with a moderately strong group who would willingly call themselves wingnuts.  The intent was purely a fun server idea where both sides could have fun literally shooting down the other political opposition.

I had thought that the two sides might have as much fun with it as some of the Darths and Jar Jars did a few servers back.

It might even bring some of our political exiles back into playing for a server or two maybe even readdict them.  But I will of course respect your wishes.
