Good idea! I would too! Then we could see the awsomeness of the sinister Canadian takeover!

Sorry, as always limited to 10 options, so no offence was intended with the countries/regions.

Yes, I originally put Where are you from Originally? And realised that was mostly pointless.

Wow, I'm the only American here. I feel like it's my responsibility to represent my country now. At east to do a better job of it than its current regime. Sorry, sorry, off-topic, I know.

Canada! Yay!

Don't worry Hux there's Seiji...and Sho's also from America but he's kinda pulled a disappearing act.

Wow...is that all the Americans?

Yeah... this forum's a bit odd in that respect. In most forums I've been on, the vast majority of members are in the US.

I knew the Canadians would arise and take over the world... er, sorry, poll.

And Hux there is one other American here but as others have said its an odd spread on the Tavern, and not at all the usual 'shape' of national distribution on 'tinternet which is why I listed Canada separate from the USA, I knew beforehand we had a weird forum.

Just out of curiosity, can anyone see an area of the globe/nation I have missed out that might contain a number of users?

Well usually Asia would be seperated from South Asia as they are very different.

If we had more space for options, it would be nice to have Japan separated, seeing as that's where Studio Ghibli is. I don't know if anybody here lives in Japan, which is counter to what I'd expect. I wonder if they have their own fan forum in Japanese?

P.S. Canada is leading the UK now, 6-5. Maybe we should demand that the Queen comes and lives here, and only visit the UK on weekends

Very few Japanese would venture out onto an english fan forum. There are tons of Japanese sites dedicated to anime and other related things so they also don't have much need to. In all the forums I've been on, I've only ever seen one native Japanese person posting, and he had visited America and knew english well. The only others posting from Japan were just people visiting or teaching in Japan, etc.

But she's worth every penny!

BTW; half of Canada must be members here?

You've seen at least two: Sho and Kanta on here are both Japanese I think - well Kanta certainly.

I've never seen them say they are Japanese & living in Japan (which is what's being discussed), earlier in this thread someone said Sho was from America, I'll take your word on this one.
