Late morning / Afternoon / Night
AIM: Nintendude1189, Smashboards

Since I'm leaving pretty soon I don't have a job or anything so I'm free all day. I figure a European opponent would want to play in the morning or afternoon my time.

Captains are more of a formality than anything but I still think it's good to have. They have a big role in trying to counterpick / avoid getting counterpicked.

Captains are good because it helps maintain order and devise strategies among the players and counterpicking like nintendude just said. Also...

I think the players shouldn't post the characters they are going to use yet. Eveybody that has interest in playing for their region should post the rest of the info that craigg is requesting so we can contact each other and such. Out of all the applicants that have shown interest we can than pick the 8 players for the region. The players can PM the captains like their top 3 characters and give a short summary of their weaknesses and strengths regarding things like certain matchups and stages. Then we can create a final list with the players and characters they are using. Its a little hard to get organized like this online, but I think it would make it more fair and exciting? lol

Nintendude, can you get on AIM tonight?

Yeah, it would definitely be helpful if everyone who wants to play for EC can PM me and Sensei with what characters you are confident using and the matchups you are good/bad at (or perhaps a rankings list in order of preferred to least preferred matchups).

I leave in 2 weeks but as long as I play for the team before I leave it should be ok. If it isn't done by the time I leave Sensei can just be the sole captain.

I'll be on AIM at various times tonight.

The caucasian majority of Australia is largely a giant collection of Europe's ex-citizens. Do we count?

(though I am neither australian or asian lol, why am I in this thread for that matter)

That was primarily the UK (England), and it was a minority - the first wave of people. Only the minor criminals were exiled, the worst stayed in England iirc. A large number of non-convict Europeans also migrated due to the gold rushes and the promises of better living standards, but now we're possibly one of the more multicultural nations on the planet (so much that we barely have what might be called a unique culture).

Canada is the most multi-cultural country in the world, hands down. We're also the best at hockey :p
ahem, israel has the best hockey team, we just do not like to brag about it or even play.

Germany/India/Pakistan/England are the best at Hockey afaik. Real men play hockey on astroturf.

Also, over 300 languages are spoken in London.

Oh, come on. We're like, a melting pot. I have no idea what that means, and I have no empirical evidence whatsoever, but I've been raised to believe in America's diversity since birth. We totally win that contest. Hands-down.

lol olympic win :p

but now that we've started this discussion, I'm curious as to what the most diverse countries are. I was taught that Canada was the most diverse, but, as said in this thread, many other countries are also very diverse...

The most diverse country in the world is India, both cuturally and geographically.
It has thousands of cultures and thousands of languages (all native, not immigrant)
Geographically you can find every thing in india: galciers, mountains, deserts, coastals, rainforests, islands...

If they're all native to India it's the opposite of diverse :p

I love you so much. Your idiocy is what keeps me going whenever I have a sliver of self-doubt. I don't know how I'd get through the day if I wasn't able to keep thinking "Well, I'm better than Novakane".
Hilarious isn't it cow?:laugh:
