But you can't expect Fordy to convert many more though. I mean- three or four more would mean that 50% of Canadians would be Barrow-Downs members.

Could we do a count to figure it out? Like percentages of all the most popular countries? I think that'd be a great feature for the site...to show how multi-cultural we are and such.

You know, the numbers of Canadians have been growing. I remember a few years back when there was a Canadian thread and there were only like 3 people who posted and then it was gone...I should go find that thread.

Ooo, that would be interesting. I wonder who we have more of, Canadians or U.S.?

I don't know exactly what this means. It certainly doesn't answer the Candad/USA question.

Phah! As if Fordy were the only Canuck here who might bring in a few out of the Great White North.

I'm kind of confused by your numbers there Mr. Wight...

You know, I get people interested all the time, good people too that I know. They go "Hey this is an awesome website, I'm going to join." They do and they never come back, it's very depressing. But I guess some people would rather play internet games then expand their minds and be a complete nerd at the same time. Plus I think that the forum thing is daunting for a lot of people, which amazes me because I love forums, especially good ones.

With 69% coming from dot com addresses then it looks like a lot of us log in at work.

or should it be

?

Putting on my sugary-sweet nice head this morning, I'd venture to say that perhaps Canadians are proportionally more inclined towards discussing Tolkienian matters. Or perhaps there is less to do with their spare time so Canadians are more likely to go online.
