I think I remember seeing someone posting from Malaysia… Also, in your map, you forgot to fill in Hainan Island. Although I don’t think we have dopers there, it’s part of China. ---

Just hike up to the top of [Snaefell](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=192456&highlight=snaefell) on a clear day and you should be able to see five of the SDMB-populated countries, not even including the Isle of Man separately. Which other Dopers can claim that? ---

We heard you the first time, **spogga** me old mate. Why don’t you design one? I’m envisaging a red field with a white circle in the middle and some sort of occult line drawing in the middle in black - what do you think? ---
