I just reviewed an old topic, which included the mention of some Swedish DBP users.
Out of interest, I thought it would be nice to know just how many of them there are around here, so if you would drop a line if you're from the North

(To mods/flamers/etc. Yeah, yeah, this is a completely irrelevant topic, so go ahead and erase it if wished.
As said, I just got interested, since most guys around here refers to game programing as "an impossibility made out of binary pointers" )

Ahh Swedes.. a truly gifted and insane lot

Some of the Atari sceners I respect the most are Swedish, and I love everything about the country other than you bringing Ikea to us

Hey without Ikea I'd probably sit in a bare room... and hadn't wasted countless hours trying to decipher icon sized exploded diagrams.

Lukas W. is Swedish, but he lives in Norway. He'll probably post on here .

EDIT: No, I don't stalk him, we've just worked together for a few years .

Ahhh ... Swede. My favourite vegetable. Mashed with a bit of butter and milk and lots of black pepper. If only it came from Sweden.

And not forgetting Swedish metal is the best, sorry, but who can argue with such results as Opeth, Katatonia, Therion and such like? Sorry, I love Sweden as well, one of the countries I plan to visit. (Along with any where I want to go in Africa, Japan, Spain, Italy and Canada)

NEVER!!! ......well okay, maybe metal, but not death metal

No, Sweden is a very nice place. I go there every year to buy stuff for half what it would cost in Norway.

They're Finnish, which reminds me, when Lordi won the Eurovision song contest, 'The Sun' being the dumbest newspaper in the world, though they had pictures of 'Lordi unmasked', all they put a picture up of was Children of Bodom, foolish people...
