+---- Thread: Nationality Randomization (/showthread.php?tid=25993)
- mole - 08-02-2013
So that more players can participate in the Olympics and IIHF tournaments... I am recommending that when a new player signs up, their nationality is determined randomly. They would be distributed based off of some preset percentages so that their would be more canadians, russians, and americans and less slovenians and germans. Special cases would be made for players from countries without a lot of players such as the latvians.

Why would we want more USA and Canada and less Germany and Slovenia (do we even have one of them?) when those smaller countries need the players and USA and CAN have too many?

maybe have an option to randomize for players like me who don't care which national team they play for?

I don't really think there's a problem with nationalities in this league besides the stupidity of the dual citizenship that was brought in for Olympics.

I wish there were more rules on names and nationalities though.

I guess if they don't care what nationality their player is, I don't have a problem with randomization.

The website I find, is unrealistic in terms of Nationally enough. More Itilans then Czechs AND Slovakians COMBINED?
Only in a online game...

Haha I know that, I wanted to make a guy from Greenland! I understand that, of course, just so insane which teams are hard to get into, and the ones that are.
