AWESOME WORK!!! Thanks a lot!
It would be nice to have this kind of classment on the site, obviously there are nations with a lot of users and some others with a little number of them, but it will like the medals on the Olympic games
Looking at the scoreboard you made, there are some nations higher than I thought (like Croatia, but probably a lot of medals come from Glitter and Doom, probably the "strongest" player on the site... he's the Michael Phelps of BGA

) and some others that I presumed higher like Japan, if I remember correctly the nation with most users on the site.
Last thing... go Italy !!!

Glitter and Doom IMHO is probably the "greatest" player on the site. He plays a few games, but he's real strong in each of them... I didn't know he took ALL the croatian medals, but I'm not surprised of this.
About the total users also I understimate the number of Japan players in the past (I supposed that the country with most user was the France or maybe Taiwan), but a couple of months ago a user made a calculation and the result was:
1st Japan (with more than the 25% of the total users)
2nd France
3rd U.S.A.
4th Taiwan (If I remember correctly, USA and Taiwan had almost the same number of users)
5th Italy
6th Poland
And these 6 countries together are the 70%, maybe more, of the users.

French people are the most skilled and everybody allready knows that, no need to make a scoreboard
By the way, we are also the most modest

I hope you mean Michael Phelps in the swimming pool, not Michael Phelps behind the wheel.

No, I meant Michael Phelps for his 12k daily calories diet
Seriously, I saw you have great result in games of different kind, some more "traditionally" boardgame like Gawaai or Spyrium, some others astract games like United Square or Neutreeko. Not to mention the 40 wins in 40 played at NorthWest Passage, or the 10 Master awards you actually have. I only had one once at Takenoko for something like 4-5 months (BTW we once played Takenoko, we both were in top10... and you outplayed me) and it seemed the greatest achievement ever on the site, so I can only imagine how hard is it possible to achieve more of them and to keep them for so long time and games played.
See ya !

Sure, I'd be glad to play with you. We can set up a turn based game, with or without elo. Just let me know which game you would like to play.

Yes, I remember that. I also remember that you were using different strategy (lot of gardener objectives), and were quite successful.
I see you are very good at many games. Maybe we can play one of them together? Tzolkin maybe? You have very good score in Tzolkin, it could be interesting.
