UK!

There are lots of Europeans around, especially Scandinavians for some reason.. Quite a few from Belgium, and I think I remember meeting a couple from Portugal. Still haven't (knowingly) met a fellow Brit in-game though!

Fleabite Beach has a world map at Shipley 22, 235. Anyone can mark their location on the world with a free pushpin that has their name in hovertext.

Australia, Melbourne... although as I've stated in my first post, the lag I encountered last night was staggering... It's too easy to be jealous of the speed you US guys get...

I'm from Sweden as well.
I haven't been aware of any other swedes in-game so far though. But I'm sure they will come around since the internet usage in Sweden is very high compared to other countries.

Maybe Linden Labs are focusing slightly more at the american market?
Anyway it seems that the US crowd in SL is a crushing majority.

It would be fun to have some official statistics of the countries represented in SL.

You know, every big MMORG I've played has had a strong Swedish showing that tends to be very visible. AO and EQ are filled with Swedes, and they're organized too. I used to raid with a guild called Anavon that would shout healing rotation and nuke commands in Swedish. Good thing I was a mage, all I had to understand was "mod rod nu".

Must be som vatten.

mod? röd (red) nu (now)

"Must be som vatten".
Wacky mixture of both languages in that sentence

What we would call "svengelska" in Sweden. Mixing english and swedish in a comical fashion.

som vatten = like water

Perhaps you already knew what all this meant. But anyway it might enlighten some of the other viewers of this thread, plus I can feel good about myself because I know Swedish lol!

Yes...mod rods were an item that magicians could summon in Everquest that gave you "mana" in exchange for hit points. In a pitched battle, people wanted them "nu".

And yes I think it must have something to do with the water
