There are already other threads like "Where are you from?" but I was hoping to narrow it down to just players who'll most likely play on North America's western servers.
I don't want to be expecting to see Nagash and his army of merrily dancing skeletons, and then find out that his old bones were European (which he has now confirmed is the case).
For the sake of privacy, don't provide overly detailed accounts of location but it'd be nice to vaguely know who we may run across on some of the NA West servers.
As for myself, I'm from Vancouver, Canada.
Cheers, and see you all in game in a few years (hopefully).

"As for myself, I'm from Vancouver, Canada. I'd hope that most NA people would know it lol."
I spend a good part of the year very close to Victoria. We could almost communicate by yodeling.
XD Reppin' Seattle here.
*gasps in shock* Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo. (though I was there for dinner last night)
New title unlocked: Nagash, "Breaker of Hearts"
JKJK. It's a shame the god of the suns and the god of undeath couldn't duel it out. It looks like you'll be controlling the European servers unless Krojak can hold off your undead legions.

@Hinbane
Living the dream?
@NGLitov
I'm hoping to find work in Seattle sometime in the near future. I wouldn't want to give up my Canadian citizenship but I'd so much rather be earning a USD income and experiencing the consumer selection down in the States.
Sample conversations:
Them: Where do you live?
Me: Vancouver the city, Washington the state (since if you put it any other way people get confused.)
Them: Oh, that really is too bad you should try living in a real city.
Me:I have lived in LA and St Louis (loved St. Louis) and Seattle those are pretty big cities.
Them: Portland is a really big city with a lot of culture, you miss out on so much. Is there any where to eat in Vancouver?
Me: No, I wish there were places to eat here but until we have running water and electricity that won't happen.
Them: We have so much here, you should try living in a big city.
Me: Uh huh.
Not all or even that many Portlanders are are Really this way. Just enough to make you lose your mind.
Anyhow... yah, NA server will be good. I play off hours but will still be based on one.
That's surprising. Shows what happens when one gets their impression from the media and the snippets of information one gets from people who've only been there as tourists! Thanks for the insider take. Politics aside, my image was that the city's design, infrastructure, and job market are top notch.
It's a cool city, a lot of rich culture and history, and it's for sure living up to the "Keep Portland Weird" motto, but there's tons about the city that people just don't know about because it's glossed over. It's true there is a ton of truth to a lot of the Portlandia skits, but of course it focuses just on a small part of the city.
People see Oregon as this huge Blue state full of liberal hippies, but the entire eastern part of the state (where I grew up) is very very conservative, while so is the southwestern corner of the state as well. Just the pocket around Portland is a huge portion of the state's population and so they decide the politics of the state.
Oregon is for sure an interesting place to live, Portland especially, but when ever people from out of state tell me they want to move here, I kindly tell them they may want to do more than watch TV to see what the city is really like.
@Sozia
Thanks for sharing! It's all interesting for me as someone who has only seen a small portion of the States (well, to be fair, I've hardly seen much of my own country Canada because it's just as ridiculously large in size. Japan, my second home country, is much more manageable in terms of size lol).
Also, I second that Sozia (re: our region).
Hopefully, all you fine NA West folks will end up on the same server as me! I'm not sure how many servers Intrepid has planned per region but I recall Steven saying improvements in technology allow them to limit the number to a few mega servers.
Maybe one day soon when the Internet and data transmission advances far enough, lag and latency issues will be a thing of the past and we can just have non-regional servers with people connecting from all over the world.
The irony is that I am actually doing the exact opposite. I am working as a contractor for a company in VBC while living in Seattle. In fairness, I do have them pay me in USD but its just funny (and a good backup plan if carrot-top goes nuts).
Well then, I am certainly envious of your situation! How is life in Seattle? My childhood memory of Seattle is that it was similar to Vancouver but it has been so long that I cannot recall clearly.
As I posted above
Hopefully, we'll all be able to play on the same server soon without lag
