Foreign Countries @ FOFC

[BishopMVP]

I was wondering how many countries we have represented here. I can count 9 off the top of my head.

USA
England
Canada
France
Netherlands/Holland
Turkey
Malaysia
Australia
Sweden

EDITED TO ADD/CHANGE:
Spain
Scotland
Britain (Not sure which is proper term for just the country, not including Wales/Scotland. Is it UK/Britain/England/GB?)
Italy
Denmark
Finland
Texas (Like Puerto Rico-Think they are a separate country and you can't understand what they say)

Any Welsh/Irish posters? How about South American/African posters? We should have at least one, like the Olympic Rings.

Also, are all 50 states represented at FOFC?

[ice4277]

I thought Canada was part of the US by now? Didn't we annex them or something, or is it just the fact that their hockey teams keep moving here that's confusing me?

[Joe Canadian]

ice4277, you aren't funny!

[Qwikshot]

Thought there would be more...

[Marmel]

We had a spanish guy on here once. He didn't stay long, and was hard to understand.

Hey Joe, I'm pretty pissed about Canadian teams moving too. The last season the Jets were in Canada, they played the Wings in the first round, and the Wings clinched in Winnipeg. I was almost hoping the Wings would lose so the Jets fans last experience at a game would be a good one. Then, a couple years back, I had went to a Coyotes game in Phoenix. Worst........experience............ever (except for the fact they beat the Avalanche by about 6 :D )

Didn't he call himself Keyser Soze? Good name, bad english.

[Marmel]

yes, great memory Bishop!

[Alf]

Keyser Soze it was. There was even a second one (in the TCY release days).

Honolulu Blue is located in Belgium
Kekkonnen is in Finland (not seen in months)
Dirk from Germany (but he is very rare, and was at the old board)
We had a kiwi guy (obviously from New Zealand)

Ah, and you forgot United Kingdom :rolleyes:

England is not a country, sorry guys, we're gonna try to kick your ass Saturday at Twickenham :)

[illinifan999]

I seem to remeber a guy that posted once or twice in the Middle East debates at the old board, that had a name like tcy.italian, or something like that. Don't know if he was really from Italy, but his name might suggest it.

[Scarecrow]

Seeing as how one of the MODs is from


SCOTLAND


it would be nice to inlude them also.

(you're welcome Ryan) ;)

[3ric]

There was a Danish guy at the old board as well, can't remember his id, but his sig went like this: "Jeg ved hvor du bor!"

[Alf]

I just said that we are "going" to try to kick your ass. That is not necessarily what is going to happen ;)

18 games without a loss inTwickenham for England is pretty impressive indeed !

OK, pipe up if you're living in <b>Wyoming, West Virginia, Utah, Tennessee, South Dakota, Rhode Island, Oregon, New Mexico, Montana, Mississippi, Maine, Delaware</b> or <b>Alabama!</b> C'mon guys, there's only 13 states left.

[Hawglaw]

Well, I lived in Arkansas up until four months ago when I moved to St. Louis. So, you can add me to the MO column. I know that detroit_fan is from AR and I believe MattJones4Heisman is as well....

[Tasan]

Texas, our Texas!

You know, there are enough Texans on here that we should be counted as a country. I bet we outnumber the rest of the non-Americans on the board.

Damn feerners... :D

[SplitPersonality1]

Yep, It's true. Everything is bigger in Texas. :rolleyes:

Steaks, egos......women. Hehehe :)

[MrBug708]

Skippy over me? I'm hurt. I wouldnt have beenas offended if you picked Vince

[Qwikshot]

Ultimate Threadkiller Qwikshot is from PA!

[vtbub]

I would imagine that RPIFan is from New York

[tucker342]

&1 is from Billings, it doesn't say what state, but isn't Billings in Wyoming?

[Schmidty]

Schmidtzelvania.

[SackAttack]

Ouch, skippy is representin' California? I demand a recount! :D

[mckerney]

You can throw me in either Minnesota or Wisconsin, either one's fine with me.

Umm, Montana. Close, but no cigar...

[Swaggs]

Actually, I am in WV for the next four months.

[Craptacular]

TRO's profile lists Monarch, Montana

[SplitPersonality1]

Love the siggy Crappy! :D

"Dawn broke da gloom on a frigid day in Daytona n' shit."

[Craptacular]

That was from using asksnoop.com on RendeR's FOFC Racing page. Maybe I should edit my sig to reflect that.

[kiwiLB57]

Looks like I have lost some money. It took exactly 12 posts to change this from a "Foreign Countries @ FOFC" thread to a "where in the US are we all from?" thread.

Highly amusing! ;)

kiwiDE57 - the guy from New Zealand.

By the way, the Waikato Spears won Kiwibowl XXI 45 - 6 over the Papatoetoe Wildcats. We went undefeated and won our fourth title in five straight appearances.

We have a short provincial (i.e. interstate) tournament coming up in the next few weeks pitting regional selections from the greater Auckland, Wellington and Waikato areas against each other.

Then the New Zealand side (picked on the basis of the above games) have a "test match" against Australia on July 19 in Auckland.

And the Americas Cup kicks off on Saturday Feb 15th (NZT) with Team New Zealand defending against the Louis Vuitton Cup winner, Alinghi (from Switzerland - that great ocean racing nation. Crewed by mostly Kiwis though.).

[3ric]

Mr.Bug and Josh are added to Cal. Let's face it, when the religious threads are raging, skippy is a little more high-profile than you guys... ;) :D

Swaggs moved to WV, Qwikshot to PA, TRO to MT as well.

kiwi, since BishopMVP asked the 50 states question in the opening post, I don't consider this a legitimate threadjack... :D

Too easy posting that after the game...:p

[andy m]

ah, well, i was too busy being in the pub to make that post prior to the game ;)

[Vince]

"Skippy over me? I'm hurt. I wouldnt have beenas offended if you picked Vince"

I appreciate that Mr. Bug...and I agree with Josh...we get no love from the board when Mrs. Kippy is representing our state :)


(of course stated completely tongue-in-cheek)

[Alf]

andy m : congrats to your team (tongue firmly in cheek)

[Alf]

dola

Since we are looking for a kicker : why not give it a try !
