    I've been in this great Community for a few weeks now and realized that there are way more members who speak my native language than I expected (and/or other non-english languages).

    As we mainly communicate in English, sometimes one does not recognize the multicultural diversity of all the countries that are represented in this community (I assume the big majority is from the US, but not solely).

    Since we are slowly moving towards the launch day and towards a multilingual SotA-experience, we would like to know which countries are represented here in the Forum.

    In other words, it would be great to know from you (also from those who normally don't post, but keep visiting the Forum):

    From where do you play Shroud of the Avatar?
    (I apologize if your country is not in the list; in this case, please let us know by posting).

    I am already curious about the results :rolleyes:

    @Cerus Two countries you might want to break out from Asia and South America are Japan and Brazil. I know a number of players from those countries who play Shroud.

    I suggest once we get a few members confirming they are from any of those countries I would break it down :)

    You need to add the Scandinavian countries to your Poll.
    I'm from the Kingdom of Sweden, and we have players from Finland, Norway and Denmark as well.

    2
    I'd recommend using multiple choice poll instead of single poll. We have some members who commute over borders and thus play from more than one country.

    3
    Why do you do this through a poll?
    A
    In these forums we have already had a topic where one could click a web link and it would add your isp location to a world map.
    B
    I know that at one point @Chris did a take from the metric and got the IP lists so that one would get a ballpark estimate. That would give much more reliable data.
    C
    Portalarium has the address data for the physical goods.

    4
    I would advice against listing continents in a country list as it gives the wrong impression and could be a bit sensitive if you are from a region getting regular stereotyping. Either use only regions/continents, or, use only countries.
    So in this case removing the continents and just have the
    "Other: please post below which and I will add"
    would serve your purpose much better.

    Happy hunting

    Pardon what is perhaps my ignorance but isn't this data available by looking at the IP addresses that login?


    Edit: I know there are many people who don't read the forums

    @Cerus why not do a poll on decay? A lot of people have either left the game or halted their playing dramatically due to this; many do not recommend SotA to others for the same reason.

    Be careful w/ Berek; he may try to lock your poll.

    I definitely know a lot of players here from Sweden and Finland (not myself). Scandinavia would be a good poll option.

    @Cerus How true! We have complained about this for months. And yes players have left the game or just stopped playing because of it! Great post
