Non-USA Dopers: Stand and be counted. Please.

Goo still posts on my board, but under a different name. She’s an infrequent but kinda loyal poster, and I think has lapsed here. Redboss disappeared a couple of years ago, citing “real life intervening”, and has completely gone from any online circles I move in. Reprise is also out of the SDMB and associated boards (as far as I know) although she popped by my board briefly maybe six months ago. You might find her on the ABC Australia forums - I know she used to post there, but no idea if she still does.

More Canadians: Kythereia is also from Toronto, Spoons is from Calgary, and matt_mcl is from Montreal.

It’s a good trial-by-fire.

:smiley:

Yet another UK resident born and bred.

Stow is in the centre of the Stratford/Cheltenham/Oxford triangle. Geograpically the closest member to me is probably jjimm. I once met Francesca and AlexB but I haven’t seen them around here for a while. That may be because I hadn’t been around for a while until May this year. Or they just don’t post anymore.

I think sven is actually a trainee at the moment, but yup. Anyway, I’m an American, of course. I don’t know who’s closest to me…maybe someone in Germany?

Norfolk, England. That’s the northern half of the sticky-out bit just north of London - I’m about 100 miles roughly ENE of London. I’ve no idea whether the friend who first pointed me over here is a Doper himself, and I don’t knowingly know any others.

Wigan, England during holidays or Edinburgh, Scotland during term time. One and Only Wanderers is probably the closest to me when I’m at home.

Red fury is from Spain ( I think he lived in the U.S. for many years but is back in the Homeland).

As **PriceGuy ** said - Swede from Sweden.

Close to Wigan, sure, but what team does he follow? :wink:

A Scot in Scotland’s capital.

Yup, close enough for these purposes :wink:

I don’t think I knew you were so close… ::shouts:: yerrright up there?

Since things are slowing down and since I have sorted the posts enough to provide a summary, here’s where things stand after 90 posts.

I chose to ignore the relocated “aliens” as far as original country is concerned: current country is what I focused on.

USA posters were also ignored, as were the relocated “aliens” now in the USA.

Hopefully the groupings will make some sense, but I have chosen not to run totals, so you can form your own opinions about where most folks are.

Looks like the majority of non-USA people are in:

  1. Canada
  2. UK/British Isles
  3. Australia/New Zealand
  4. Europe
  5. Central/South America (includes Mexico)
  6. Asia and the Middle East

Apart from tschild, who was mentioned earlier by kellner, there are two more Germans I know of, Schnitte and Einmon.

Good work, yourself. Thanks.

Others please feel free to help with updates. The format is just right, too.

Another chiming in for Australia - Hastings, Victoria to be exact. I don’t know a lot of other Aussie posters, except my cousin Cazzle who introduced me to the boards.

Rickjay is also Canadian.

If I’m not mistaken, I think Smeghead is, too.

Another Canadian right here. Going to university in Windsor but I’ll be heading back to Toronto in 3 weeks and a bit. For good.

I can’t wait to get home…

Australian, living in Sydney.

A few more (in Zeldar’s preferred format), some of whom may have been mentioned upthread but didn’t make it into post #92:
