Nice of you to agree with me. However, I don't recall saying close down micronations. And before anyone agrees with me for saying keep them, I didn't say that either.

Interestingly quite a few micronations added users last week. I could say Ghana's users increased by 33% last week, but the difference between 3 users and 4 users is probably not making a difference to the playing experience for them.

Also increasing by 1 were Barbados, Nigeria, Puerto Rico, Jamaica(who now have enough people to fill one division), and Cyprus. That's in the countries with less than 30 users. My personal belief is that all this information is irrelevant. But then I felt this thread was irrelevant from the very beginning. So I'm on topic.

In all, 27 countries added users last week. 29 lost users.

There are 136 players in Sweden, 122 in all the countries with 10 or less players.

258 players in Taiwan, 261 in countries with 11-20 players.

337 players in Australia, 341 in countries with 21-50 players.

Just numbers. Is a bigger country more important than a smaller one? In actual sport I would hope not. In a game that's run presumably to make money. Perhaps.

I think if I do have a point, and in reality I don't think I do, its that the micronation problem is perhaps not killing BB.

sorry to confuse I said they should close them, from a buisness perspective they made to make money and they are not. it would be wise to do something about it or close them. I do agree with both of your statement though

Second country with no active teams: Misr

DOn't get me wrong, I am on your side on mirconation issue.

I am extremely dissapointed with the state of it. I just mean to clarify, Marin is aware and keeping tabs on this. Pakistan, Ghana, SA, India, Thai, Korea, Japan etc. (and others I am not aware of)
People have been complaining/asking for change and he knows.

Not entirely true. There are just as many users in Japan as there were when you were... well... competing in the JBBL. You've consistently been the only one complaining/asking for change there - there are probably more people there who value the national identity rather than playing in some Utopia-asian-conglomerate.

Dude: just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean you get to deride them.
You're absolutely entitled to your opinion, but don't paint it as being more than that.

LOL....A bunch of guys from everywhere in the world BUT Japan who value their national identity. And who would be appalled to play in an international situation they are already in.....

Thanks for the laugh.

Err... your point being? So - because *you say so*, I can't choose to be fine with being a representative of the nation I live in?
Gee. That's an interesting stance to take. If you're going to remove our voice from the equation, then make sure you remove your own interest in that as well. I guess your comment SHOULD read:

Fact wolph: historically, you were the only one in Japan "complaining/asking" for change. And as of *at-this-moment*, you're still the only one.

Who's next?

More ad hominem. You haven't changed much... huh wolph?

I didn't misrepresent. All I said was that as far as Japan goes, you've been the only one "complaining/asking". Other nations - you're probably right.
Reiterating, someone disagreeing with you does not give you the right to attack them.
