Considering the amount of Canadians and Americans we have, its surpising why no one has asked this sooner.

Maybe he's just curious about who there are more of - Canadians or Americans (specifically). I think it's probably more curiousity. We will survive if there is no "other" option on a Tpunk poll.

Ah, but I didn't say anything bad about your polls either (that was me passive agressively sticking up for you . I apologize in advance - now go start a new poll, and I'll defend you! B)

nothings wrong with that, but while he's at it, he might as well just add a few more categories so that we can know where the rest of the ppl on the board are from too. You get the same results, but your not limiting it to a selected portion of the members.....i dunno....just my 2 cents

Funny how CB's question forming is being analyzed and not the actual question itself.
Correct me if I'm wrong but Americans should make upa higher percentage of the site given that it is an American based site as well as in English.
