So here's the poll :D Aussie Bob 04-23-2002, 01:59 AM Australia is winning so far. Aussie Aussie Aussie - OY OY OY. :D Lats 04-23-2002, 02:49 AM Another from Au. Lats... dragonhawk 04-23-2002, 02:53 AM Aussie rules!! Oy Oy Oy!! Haze 04-23-2002, 03:31 AM I picked Australia as I am currently living and working here. You did forget to include my home land though... You know that big blob of snow above the USA? Its not another state, no its a country, my home land... C A N A D A. I AM Canadian! © Molson HRBrendan 04-23-2002, 03:41 AM Its a state. ;) -Brendan dragonhawk 04-23-2002, 03:50 AM USA vs Australia... Arch-rivals in sport (I see that on TV all the time) especially when the olympics or the world championships come on... I can't edit the poll, so I can't add canada to the list... The poll was supposed to be continents, North America and South America (together), Australasia, Asia and Europe... But I kinda typed too fast and thought too little... Isn't Canada part of North America or is my geography that bad?

Yes, its a part of North America, and not a part of the United States of America.. You are forgiven my son. Its just that ever since I got to this country and people ask me where I'm from and I tell them Canada they say "Huh? Is that near China?".. Three times and counting I got that same statement. :rolleyes: SimonMc 04-23-2002, 10:32 AM What about Africa....Not that Im from there....but I sure thought it was a continent. Simon Maniac 04-23-2002, 11:45 AM USA, all the way ;) Abu Mami 04-23-2002, 12:32 PM Israel (I guess that's Asia) richy 04-23-2002, 12:38 PM oi why no option for the uk. i refuse to pick europe lol. were most definately NOT in europe . nor hopefully will we ever be :) in in england Vex 04-23-2002, 01:04 PM USA :) kunal 04-23-2002, 01:10 PM what? no more indians out there? just me? :confused: Vex 04-23-2002, 01:15 PM Poor kunal :( *Pats on head* hehe just kidding :D markblair 04-23-2002, 01:18 PM USA...the state of Michigan to be exact.

Mike the newbie 04-23-2002, 08:36 PM Interesting how the poll results change as daylight moves around the globe. :D Checking in from Connecticut, US here. AcuNett 04-23-2002, 09:21 PM Lexington, Kentucky Wollongong, Australia Guangzhou (Canton), China Ames, Iowa Franklin, Tenenssee okihost 04-23-2002, 09:28 PM Boston here.. LinuXpert 04-23-2002, 09:47 PM Another from Aussie. TheException 04-23-2002, 10:33 PM I am disgusted with all you people, show some respect to Canada please! We ARE bigger than you (the USA), you may have more people but we are bigger! So there!:stickout And no, we are not a frozen wasteland, thats the Arctic you are thinking of :P Don't get me wrong, the states are great. Canada is just as good though, if not better. BTW, I did not vote, nor will I. I am not part of any of the options. dragonhawk 04-23-2002, 10:49 PM you guys are making me feel bad about not having some places up there... I didn't think about those places at the time :bawling: But anyway, from the results, most people are from the USA (can someone change that to North America so Canadians can vote too) and also, if a moderator is reading this, add Africa to that list :D TheException 04-23-2002, 11:01 PM Chicken will probably come around soon. I don't know how he is about modifying polls like this, but you could probably send him a PM with what you want changed? dragonhawk 04-23-2002, 11:15 PM Chicken is like "GOD" in these forums and he's probably too busy to update the poll here... besides I've only just been promoted from a Newbie, and I'm afraid, I'm just not worthy enough to PM him :rolleyes: Maniac 04-24-2002, 11:47 AM Originally posted by TheException Chicken will probably come around soon. I don't know how he is about modifying polls like this, but you could probably send him a PM with what you want changed? He did for me. Just PM him the post and what you want changed, he should do it. ToastyX 04-24-2002, 11:56 AM There are seven continents. If you're going to change USA to North America and include Africa, then don't forget about South America. Anyone here from Antarctica? :D Vex 04-24-2002, 12:17 PM Originally posted by dragonhawk Chicken is like "GOD" in these forums and he's probably too busy to update the poll here... besides I've only just been promoted from a Newbie, and I'm afraid, I'm just not worthy enough to PM him :rolleyes: Post counts and user levels don't really matter :rolleyes: Just PM him anyways.. Maniac 04-24-2002, 12:19 PM It matters more what you bring to the forum in those posts ;) gabriel 04-25-2002, 12:35 AM I´m from Argentina.... :D we are famous by the economic crisis :rolleyes: Tallon 04-25-2002, 02:21 AM Canada :) No we don't have snow all year round and I've never clubbed a seal :D I've actually had people ask me about those two things, silly folks. dragonhawk 04-25-2002, 06:18 AM I've PM'd Chicken and hopefully he'll come around to update the polls... I heard that Canada is either rainy or snowy this time of year. Melbourne is getting colder, but nothing too unbearable just yet NetXL 04-25-2002, 06:25 AM Another crazy Aussie here. *Kangaroo sitting in corner of room, Koala climbing computer case* :rolleyes: :pimp: diederik 04-25-2002, 06:31 AM Originally posted by ToastyX There are seven continents.

Maniac 04-26-2002, 12:59 AM Originally posted by Bullschmidt So it looks like it's about half US and half the rest of the world... Yep :-) StarGate 04-27-2002, 05:39 AM ...

Arch-rivals in sport Hehe... depends what you mean by sport. There are only three: - football (for some strange reason a certain people say soccer) - ice-hockey (the best team didn't reach the finals in SLC btw) - handball (wow!) boing 05-10-2002, 05:12 AM i am an ex-patriate kiwi now living in melbourne,australia.

There are only three: - football (for some strange reason a certain people say soccer) - ice-hockey (the best team didn't reach the finals in SLC btw) - handball (wow!) I was actually thinking mainly swimming and athletics... at the olympics. Football can be confused for Aussie Rules, GridIron, Rugby or Soccer, so I tend to use one of the above instead of "Football" in general... Never heard of an ice-hockey team from Aust, but I recall Aust coming last in handball in the last olympics (i think)... |
