other coutries may have better players but pehaps CC is not popular there.

in conclusion usa has the best, the worst, and the most risk players on this site.


you forgot that america has much more people, if you look how much usa people are in the usa and than look at the percent how much are playing on this site
then look to the netherlands i bet we win with %

HOW can you leave south africa out? It's an atrocity :lol:

Wrong, I believe Asia has more people. But I've barely seen any of them here.

C.


I would agree because I am British and that is where this thread is flawed - the US is clearly going to win because the majority of the players are American - as is shown by both the forums and the scoreboard

I agree with DiM.

But if men really wanne know, then maybe Lackattack can make a search list in the Topic of "Scoreboard". And then you can search the list per nationality.
Or just a new list of percentage of nationality per CC member.

Example: Total points of Dutchies divide CC Dutch members

Then you have a real presented list of best country at risk.

Or just count the flags in the scorebo
ard. But that will take a long time to make the list :roll:

Silly! :D :D :D :D voting wont determine it........Have a massive tourny.....Qualifying rounds for singles.......doubles........triples, best qualifiers out of each countries group for all 3 kinds of games. Then combine all competing countries into a tourny using all formates. After about 2 years of rounds we should know? :roll:

The USA is the best at everything...this thread is so stupid.

We're the best at the Olympics, every year. Were the best at creating pollution, were #1 in offense, oops I mean defense spending. We PUT A MAN ON THE MOON! Were best at being overweight, committing war crimes, we have the richest people in the world. Bill Gates is an American not some stupid European. :roll: Where was I? Oh yeah, the USA writes the best literature, "It was a dark and stormy night"? Are you British kidding me? John Steinbeck, Ernest Hemingway and Kurt Vonnegut could take Bulwer Lytton ANY DAY! The U.S. is #1 in people with no health care umm... what else...Violent crime, % of population in prison, so of course were number one at Risk!

yeah saw last time something on tv, how much people lock there house in usa (because otherwise all your things get stolen etc. when you live there, you/they even lock yourself/themself when you are at home!) then look to canada 80%+ doesn't even lock their door when they are away (also strange i guess :P ) but that huge difference between neightbours (usa & canada)

The true tactian has to be British!!!!! americans just like the shock and awe approach and dont 4get the friendly fire.

I think marval is onto something though. Get the top 1000 players on the site then divide it by how mnay players are on the site and we should get a true representationof who is the best.

I think americans could have quite a few deadbeats though :)

I'm not sure. For example one of the main reasons Russians are considered to be good at chess is because chess is so popular there, and judgments like this tend to be very arbitrary. However, I voted for the US because our foreign policy often resembles a game of risk. :shock: [which definitely needs to change]

Say, how many countries are we occupying right now?

Kinda a stupid poll, in my opinion. Everyone knows that Texans are the best risk players ;-)

But in all seriousness, a poll like this will only lead to flames and trolls. While I enjoying playing against or with people from all over the world, I have as of yet to look at the flag in their profile and think that I will win or lose a game based on where they are from.

Don't you mean Mexico Jr.?

Texan: "Remember the Alamo!!!'
Yankee: "Dude, didn't you get your asses kicked there?"
Texan: "Shutup!"
Mexican: "No, no...I think you did get your ass kicked there. By Mexicans."
Texan: "How bout them Cowboys!!"

the alamo is not about winning the fight, it is about being brave enough and willing to fight til the end. surrender was offered, but the texans refused! and then two months later we kicked their ass at the battle of san jacinto.
