This last round covered most of Scandinavia for us, still looking for Norway and Iceland (Is Iceland considered part of Scandinavia? I always thought it was). Japan makes the list as our first Asian nation, now all we need is South America. We've also got Vermont added to the U.S. list, home of Howard Dean (Insert bellowing scream), and Calvin Coolidge, the thirtieth President of the United States.

Doc: I'm glad you (and all of you who've posted) join me in finding this type of thing interesting here. Like I mentioned when I opened this thread, it amazes me how such a small and trivial (in the vast realm of international affairs) thing as a game can unite so many different people from so many different places.

I also see that, at one time, RippleJet lived in the city of Turku, Finland, which is the hometown of Saku Koivu, the captain of my favorite NHL team, the Montréal Canadiens, who play in the hometown of SIMMANIA. A little "degrees of separation" thing going on there...

If there is one thing you can say about the Dutch in general it is that they are very vocal ... always.  ;D

Thats right!!....First we scream..and than we Scream harder becouse we always think that nobody heard us, and then we talk very loud just in case nobody listens and then when we done talking we always think : what did i just say?  ???...i'll have to scream a bit more and harder :) and unlike people from other countrys...we don't need beer for it! we are just loud....plane loud, not rude! JUST LOUD!!

ps : we like to repeat ourselfs too  :thumbsup:

I now stay (a central North Carolina expression, where I was born, Erwin, Harnett County, pop.-dwindling) in the

USA, State of Tennessee, in the Overton County seat, Livingston. 

And I sound like it.  Can anyone say 'drawl' or 'I'll be your hunkleberry.'  Or wrap your brain around 'c'ain't' ()sad().

vil: Ask and you shall receive! Welcome to the list!
sandrasim1: Welcome!

I've seen a few countries that haven't been added to the list yet (I believe I saw Slovenia, though I may be wrong). If you haven't stopped by, come on in and let us know where you're from, whether your home country/state is on the list already or not! Take  care!

Doc

Ok, I gotta ask, cuz I seem to be missing something here. Granted, my mental and optical abilities are both hideously deficient, but I'm looking at the list and I see Maryland is listed as #3. So, I go looking for all of my fellow Maryland players and...well, there don't seem to be any! ()what() I was ASSuming that the list was ranked in order of SC4D population per state and country. Of course, I can only see the results of those who have responded, so if you have access to other data, then that might be it.

Which leads me to another point...if both Maryland and Pennsylvania have one member each, then the list shows the blatant bias shown by the author of this thread! (Who just happens to be from the winning state!)  &prt Since Pennsylvania is a much larger state than Maryland, that means there is a lesser percentage of the state's population here at SC4D than Maryland's, so MARYLAND should be AHEAD of Pennsylvania! So should Alaska, for that matter. I'm all for home-state loyalty and all that, but let's keep the numbers in perspective, here. You've got poor Dedgren suffering the ignominy of second place when his state of Alaska should've won by a landslide!

Or, to make things simple, how 'bout putting a number on the next list showing how many members are here from each state. "$Deal"$ Enquiring minds want to know!
