Do they actually refer to themselves as Americans though? I believe they refer to themselves as Brazilians, Mexicans, and Guatemalans.

We citizens of the United States of America I guess could call ourselves Unitarians or Statesmen, but one's been taken and the other is some video game's IP.

Counter Nitpick: only USA citizens are arrogant enough to think themselves the only Americans. so we 'Americans' are the only ones.

A long time back I reqularly played on a MUD where a goblin racial profession I was in had a unique emote that said to the triggering player something like "You bellow out your warcry." I went several years thinking this is essentially what other players saw as well, until one day one of my friends asked me why I frequently yelled "FOOD! FOOD!" in the middle of battle.

Anyway, does this mean I'll actually have a server called Zukunft on my list? If so, that is just awesome. I'd be almost tempted to transfer my character Leichendiener over there... Though it might be taken now that I think of it.

Well it looks like Archiviste did the honors of creating the text for the binds I suggested. The truly sad part is the Devs could actually plug those into the game and there would be a bunch of people wondering why they were pissing off our new European friends because they'd have no clue what they were saying.

To answer your question yes, players will see new servers to play on in our main server list. If you're a NA player you'll see Zukunft on your list as an available server. Basically the distinction between NA players and EU players is disappearing. Everyone playing the game will be able to play on any server.

Are you talking about real ale or the slops some companies make there is a real difference.

Except for the fact that today, a NA sub is almost 20% cheaper than a EU one. I'm looking forward to see how they'll "merge" that.

That's a fair point. I understand prices may always be slightly different based on real world currency exchange rates. But yeah you'd think they'll have to bring everyone's costs in line to be more equal. The sad fact is they may take this opportunity to try to make current NA players pay an amount closer to what the EU players currently pay.

Welcome to America (tm).

However, if there's one thing you must get straight, it is that in America (tm), all sandwiches must have some form of deceased animal carcass, and some sort of sliced aged milk culture as well.

So in light of this, I ask 2 questions:

1) Where can we get cucumbers big enough to serve as the 'bread' part of the sandwich,

and 2) if you are, indeed, suggesting a sandwich whose filling consists of cucumbers,

What Madness have you wrought??

Nah, Cricket is easy to explain. It goes like this;

You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side that's been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out.
When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out.
When both sides have been in and all the men have been out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game.
