It's a change that would definitely bring me back to the Map from time to time.

I live in the U.S. but I'm from Ukraine. Would that count for your project? If so then I'd be happy (as indicated by the happy face) to play against you.


If michael5000 set out to play, not only someone from each country, but also a representative from each country who was now living in a different country, that would make 239 home countries X 238 away counties = 56,882 opponents.

Though there are some duplicate countries e.g. Holland and The Netherlands.

If I was from Nauru I’d advertise to play flag collectors for $. No I wouldn’t. It’s a fun feature visualizing your opponent in an exotic (to me) locale from a much different culture while we play a game we enjoy in common. I’ve got 135/241 after 3000+ games. I’ve never seen anyone claim 100%, or even if there actually is a member in Nauru. Sorry to pick on you Nauruans out there, just used you for an example of a hard to get one. I assisted some clients long ago chartering corporations in Nauru who wanted to avail themselves of the enlightened tax policy there, I.e., none. But I never got to go there.
Sorry to wander off topic.
