I dunno how I missed this thread for so long...
Me either. Strange.

Me, I'm from Eugene, Oregon. College town that hosts a number of insane, Duck-loving (The University of Oregon's team) SUV driving, environmentally concerned, ex-hippies (Yes, I know that SUV's and the environment are diametrically opposed, but in Eugene, you just learn to live with the blatant hypocrisy). And since it's a college town, we have quite a few gamers running around out here (including a sizable LARP population), many of whom really enjoy Ravenloft... but generally don't play it. I think it had something to do with the way it was originally presented, as a 'weekend of terror' setting.

<sigh>

At least I have a group of die hard cthulhu players who subscribe to the belief that 'since it's D&D, at least we'll have a fighting chance against the monsters.'

Oh, how naive they are.

I'm from north Estonia. Second on these boards.

"Europe-Africa (Wales, Estonia, Norway, etc.)" By the way, which of these three is in Africa? Estonia? ;)

The poll options give me an "invalid form" message when I try to vote in it.

I've resided in all three choices at some point in my life - the shortest period was for three years.

Hey just a quick peek in... Been awhile... Anyways I am in the USA and currently live in Michigan where I go to school but I also live in Tennessee and get back there on occasion. I have two players who I get to run Ravenloft for but they could play other settings fairly easily. One likes MOtRD and the other is into Dragonlance, but they both got there by way of me introducing Ravenloft to them! :)

Also have the same issue with the poll!!!

I fixed it and I believe you can now vote, let me know if it works.

Or not :)

It's an old poll, started in 2004, so you might have already voted and forgot about it.

Here we count each vote only once! (this ain't Florida :twisted: )

Sorry guys. Fixing this poll just ain't on the top of my to-do list. :) Start a new one if you like.

Drats, the problem came back. Sorry, no idea either on how to fix it quickly!

Fair enough!

From Alberta, Canada here. Usually go by DasSovietCanuck around the 'net - a reference to 'Soviet Canuckistan,' but decided to drop the Canuck for this site as DasSoviet seemed a bit more... serious and ominous, as it were.
