Where in the world
I was curios how widespread the Oolite community is.
From the top of my head I believe I have seen people on the forum from the following countries: -
England
Scotland
Wales
USA
Australia
New Zealand
Canada
Germany
Finland
Austria
France
Russia
Spain
Sweden
Brazil
Belgium
Switzerland
Slovenia
Norway
Do we have representatives from any others ?

The map on the trunk nightly download page will add a few more, I think - including one from the Atlantic ocean off Africa.
Hover over the red dots and it'll tell you where each visit is based - of course, they may not be forum members.

Sadly it's probably 0° N and 0°W ... it just signals an IP address with an indeterminate geographical location, not actually someone bobbing about where the equator meets the Greenwich meridian.Jake wrote:I bet there's a really interesting story behind that one.El Viejo wrote:The map on the trunk nightly download page will add a few more, I think - including one from the Atlantic ocean off Africa.

I suppose it could be Cmdr. Maegil, but I'm not sure he has the intertubes on his boat.

I'm pretty sure he has not, or else he wouldn't only visit the boards when anchored in some harbour.Smivs wrote:I suppose it could be Cmdr. Maegil, but I'm not sure he has the intertubes on his boat.

Re: Where in the world
Shipbuilder: Why not make a poll on this thread and see how the numbers break down . It would be neat to see the numbers

Tasmania is actually considered part of Australia..
