Reasons CCP should move to Australia:
1) Sunnier weather in Sydney 2) Far from the majority of players with pitchforks and torches 3) Incredibly solid and prosperous economy 4) Good and strong AUD 5) Awesome holiday destinations like Fiji, Tahiti, Thailand. 6) Easier access to one of the best beers in the world: James Boags. 7) Awesome food and wine 8) Interact more with real people who will tell you when things are **** or awesome 9) No volcano's to cash an ash cloud over things and make it gloomier 10) 20 degree C winters 
But yeah. Just idle thoughts :)

We actually had one blow over from Chile last week which grounded a bunch of flights... but I guess you could say we have fewer nearby volcanoes... Totally not a price-check alt. |

Edited by: Iamien on 28/06/2011 03:15:57 One problem. Bandwidth in Australia would bankrupt them.
There is a reason that noone hosts server for Australia, and it is not because they don't like Australians. Hosting servers is more expensive by magnitudes. __________ I can tell you that this is one of the moments where we look at what our developers do and less of what they say.

While I would be inclined to give our ausie cousins a favourable mention, your best bet would be to move the company to Canada which boasts 3 of the top 5 most livable cities in the world. I would in particular recommend vancouver which has world class restaurants, and undoubtedly the best recreational snowboarding in the world.

Ummm a few languages....
1) Real 2) Bogan 3) english
Real and Bogan are rather limited in vocabulary, limited mainly to expleetives.
Only downside is if you stick a camera in front of anyone here and they will think they will outlast religion

The best part about Australia is that we're all mates, even if we've never met!
But it is true that everything that moves is trying to kill you. In fact of the top 10 most poisonous spiders in the world, Australia has 9 of them.

Yes CCP could learn all about how great Australia is. Apparently its the greatest Country in the Universe bar none and they will remind you of that fact every day. Also apparently they are the most happiest people on Planet Earth according to a new survey released today. They have the greatest National Broadband Network in the galaxy along with the best wine ever to be made by humans. They have huge deposits of natural Resources Comparable to the Drone Regions which feed the Chinese Juggernaught. Their Woman go like a Train and their beer is Better than Czech or German( James Boags is good but not that good). If Ever there was a Country so far up their own Rectum this Country is it. Oh and forgot to mention the quality of their elected politicians, they are total class. Jesus Christ how can a little insignificant country of 21 million people be so full of themselves lol they really do amaze me

The Icelandic bankers who lost billions were forced to return home after the finacial losses were known. I think the majority of Icelandic people will want to stay in... Iceland... Cheap Geotherm power, you can still buy whale meat. The strong AUD means exports are down, and it also means ccp would get less for their subscriptions.
When your currency devalues by like 50% and your main form of income is external you dont run away ;P...
I could sell my house in the UK, and buy a home on the outskirts of the only Icelandic city that counts that's four times the size of my home.. Same price! If someone sells their 300sqm home in iceland and moves to AussieVille.. Will they be able to buy a similar home near Syd for 210k AUD ? ----------- Never Forget the joy of finding a main to link to a scammer alt. N-y-p-h-u-r ! ! |

And what is you're point exactly, don't Australians get total sarcasim when it jumps up and slaps them in the face with a boxed jelly fish. Its one thing to be proud of your'e Country's Heritage (or lack of being from criminal stock) but you Australians my freind are bodering on Lunacy when it comes to Nationalism. 70% of Bogans under the age of 20 have the Aussie Swazzie Tatooed all over them god I could go on for hours on whats so wrong with Australia, funny thing is all the **** youre feed by the media you actually believe.

And what is you're point exactly, don't Australians get total sarcasim when it jumps up and slaps them in the face with a boxed jelly fish. Its one thing to be proud of your'e Country's Heritage (or lack of being from criminal stock) but you Australians my freind are bodering on Lunacy when it comes to Nationalism. 70% of Bogans under the age of 20 have the Aussie Swazzie Tatooed all over them god I could go on for hours on whats so wrong with Australia, funny thing is all the **** youre feed by the media you actually believe. Oh well take the minerals away from Australia and what have you got ?
There is only one thing better than rose tinted spectacles and that is spending almost every day of the summer on a beach watching the sun sparkle off your newly cracked ice cool stubby... and then knowing you can probably do the same for a 3rd of the winter too. :) |

Originally by: Headerman Reasons CCP should move to Australia:
1) Sunnier weather in Sydney 2) Far from the majority of players with pitchforks and torches 3) Incredibly solid and prosperous economy 4) Good and strong AUD 5) Awesome holiday destinations like Fiji, Tahiti, Thailand. 6) Easier access to one of the best beers in the world: James Boags. 7) Awesome food and wine 8) Interact more with real people who will tell you when things are **** or awesome 9) No volcano's to cash an ash cloud over things and make it gloomier 10) 20 degree C winters 
But yeah. Just idle thoughts :)
ZOMG! space-kangaroos too!!!!!!!!!! would be epix |

surely zimbabwe would be better for ccp to set up in... it like eve online's isk has extremely worthless currency... in fact its so bad they need to use another currency just like aurum. 
has good weather and yet still has corrupt politics much like iceland has.
has lots of things (both human, viral, parasitical and animal based) that want to kill you even better than australia can offer.

While I would be inclined to give our ausie cousins a favourable mention, your best bet would be to move the company to Canada which boasts 3 of the top 5 most livable cities in the world. I would in particular recommend vancouver which has world class restaurants, and undoubtedly the best recreational snowboarding in the world.
I present to you Exhibit A
Did anyone else notice the title of the third table in that link "Monocle's Most Livable Cities Index 2010". Yarrrrrr

CCP look, don't let the bad things scare you, it just makes life more interesting, honest!
10 things to look out for: - Inland Taipan/fierce snake: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inland_Taipan - Sydney funnel web: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sydney_funnel-web_spider (black is an awesome colour!) - Box jelly fish: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_jellyfish - One of the more annoying ants, the inchman/bull ant: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myrmecia - Back in the water again we got some big assed sharks too, dun worry they revised the length of it to only 9 meters after this story: http://www.smh.com.au/news/national/great-white-shark-in-lake/2008/07/09/1215282909263.html - Salt water Crocs make for swimming a fun sport in the northern parts of Aus: http://www.drivenow.com.au/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/normanton1.jpg - Taking a dip? Watch out for these colourful thingies: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue-ringed_octopus
Don't let them worry you though, it's all good

We have water desalination because the idiot cotton farmers took all our water.

There is a reason that noone hosts server for Australia, and it is not because they don't like Australians. Hosting servers is more expensive by magnitudes.
Tranquility is not in Iceland, it's in london. no one said they had to move the severs :)

Telstra kicks AT&T's or Verizon's arse to kingdom come and halfway back. You don't know just how good we've got it here in Australia.
The fact you mentioned 2 telco's that have to compete with each other means you obviously don't get it.

No worries. The servers are in London anyway.
But I guess those Icelanders are afraid of spiders ..

I think being in Europe is a great for CCP, we have all the hot people and we excel at everything, the US population seem to be doing the most whining, but once Sarah Palin becomes president trolls will be banned from the internet
Speaking of politics, did you know the same people who are whining about MT are the ones who voted Bush into office,.. twice LOL! No wonder CCP ignores them .
LETS POST ON CAOD GANG! |
