    The List of Finns

    Few of the following have not "reported" themselves to the Suomithreadi, but are judged by posting in fluent Finnish (that has not been copied and pasted) and/or confirming of being Finnish (not of any other nationality):

    aaglo,
    Aivo½so,
    Andemagne,
    Demon Allbran,
    Hakkapeliitta,
    Hippi,
    Jaakko,
    kassiopeia,
    laurentius,
    LightEning,
    ottok,
    Patriqvium,
    Rasbelin,
    Edited 07.02.02 - Shai-Hulud,
    Stefu,
    Tuomas Seijavuo,
    Edited 11.02.02 - Juize = Tuomerehu,
    Wilderess,
    Xuenay.

    That's 18. I'm relatively new, so some vets might be missing.

    ***

    EDIT: I have also taken the liberty to appoint a new honourary Finn, Gramphos, for excellence in the studies of the Finnish language, alongside with GP who has endured the toils of sauna and frolicking in snow.

    GP,
    Gramphos.

    ***

    Also, people who have noted their location as "Finland", and have yet to confirm their true nationality:

    HulluKarhu,
    PapaLenin.

    That's 18 + 2 +2.

    Interesting to note is that the person with the handle "Yksi", meaning the number one in Finnish, is not a Finn at all.

          See the edited List of Finns, v. 1.1!

          (Though the "fluent" part in my definition would of bailed me out.)

              You were drunk when you typed it.
              Everyone of my posts in this thread were between midday and three pm. Drunk?

                You did it because you wanted to make us produce hordes of by your Machiavellian-style post that was enhanced with some elementary psychology?

                  Has Dookie taught you nothing!. *scoff*

                  When you attend university, and are still drunk at 3pm due to the excess of the night before, then you will become a true Englishman.

                    I did? Cool

                    SD: I would hesitate before learning anything from Dookie. I just hope I can get to another uni, as I am considering Aber as a second or third choice (after Cambridge...)

                      Eli is right.

                      There are several more Israelis other than the one he mentioned, but they are in the Civ 3 and CTP areas. Never came down here to hell...o Off Topic

                        You didn't, I asked if you did. Oh, that's probably the same thing...

                        Oh come on, free us from our ignorance. Or was I right after all?

                        Never came down here to hell...o Off Topic
                        Not all of them. I could off hand tell you that Hippi has never visited the gutter known as the Off-Topic.

                          Be sure that Cambridge is the place for you. My experience of "Oxbridge" students has lead me to believe that it is not suited to certain "personalities". I am one of very few people to have actually turned down an offer from Oxford, because I found the place stuffy, pretentious etc. Cambridge may be different these days, you'll have to ask Chowlett.

                          BTW the following year Imperial College, my chosen university, overtook Oxford in the league tables.

                            Well, I dunno 'bout Civ3 but I'm fairly certain there are no Israelis in the CtP areas. There might be one or two people in CtP1 Multiplayer of whose nationality I'm not sure about but I don't think anyone is from Isreal...

                            BTW, where are all the Dutch people? There must be at least 30-40 on this site but only 6 have voted so far

                              seems like this poll doesn't get the attention it deserves.
                              If you really want an overall result, Markos, you should post a link to these polls topped in every forum !

                              So far there are 49 europeans and 40 north americans.........

                              Are you watching Firaxis: next game civ-game you release should be released first in Europe :doitnow:

                              I really have no clue how much dutch there are around...........
                              what if we make a list ?

                                Well, there are a LOT of Dutch people here, believe me. I don't think we could ever get a complete list but here's a rough draft (from the top of my head so it's possible I put one or two Belgians or other non-Dutch people on it):

                                Mark L

                                And no, this list is not complete, probably missed at least 10 people...
