and just a quick survey of this post reveals
USA 12
Australia 8
Sweden 1
Canada 1
Germany 1
So lets work out per head of population who dominates
Populations
USA 250 mill
Australia 19 mill
Sweden 8 mill
Canada 27 mill
Germany 80 mill
That works out to
USA only one in 21 mill
Aus one in 2 mill

How many active Swedish posters are there in this territory?
<img src="/images/blue1.gif" width=100% height=1></font></td></tr></table></center>
I can think of 4.5 active posters (only to just beat your score  ):
- Carolus Rex
- Henrik
- Kropotkin
- Sir David (I think this person is Swedish, but it's been a long time since I saw him/her post)
- Sten Sture  (this is the 0.5 in 4.5 above and it isn't entirely correct since it's his grandmother who is Swedish)
Now, what's 4.5 out of 8.8 million?
I know at least two more, but not sure about their handles (Depp?) and have not the time to search right now.

I usually have ICQ on invisible, but with cable it's always on.
I play pretty regularly.
At LEAST 3 times a week.

I thought it was Apolyton as a whole, but in that case I declare myself defeated!
But my impression is that most threads with Aussies involved turn into off-topic personal vendettas, so where do we stand after all?

Woke, that's about the most ass thing I've seen written here or anywhere.
Seriously. I know I run my mouth at you for grins, but come on.
I guess you should be glad not everyone thinks that way, or you would have made a lot slower gains in ability, and maybe decided it wasn't worth the effort.
Teaching others and perpetuating (making sure game interest continues) is one of the few worthwhile things you can do around here with Civ.

Very generous of you Slowwhand. This game hardly holds interest to me any more, set aside a game where the outcome is clear beforehand. so I am not going to waste my time in teaching newbies. And yes Slowwhand, i consider you one of them.
If you think Im an ******* because I think like this, so be it!
Anyone who has at least 2 years of multiplayer experience and has at least be once been #1 in Gameleague or cases ladder can call me: ICQ 15720485
I play all settings, accept for 2x1x.

Before applying for citizenship, Bird, be aware that you'll be required, for road safety reasons, to drive around in daylight hours with your car headlights switched on. That's not a problem. The problem arises when you park your car, forget about the headlights, and return a couple of hours later to a flat battery. Ask yourself - is having a battery charger as your very best friend a fair enough price to pay for the doubtless honour of being Swedish?

ROTFLMAO!!!
Finbar, have you ever been in Sweden (sounds like it!  )?
Bird, of course! I'll be back with some crème de la crème battery charger sites!
On the spam issue, just change the thread's title to "Active spammers". Problem solved!
