I was made an honorary Finn by 2 hot Finnish women!

I don't speak any Finnish though
I can also drink like a Finn... (okay this one is doubtful)

[Sinilin_]

Finnish person here, do feel free to add me. Origin ID: Sinilin. ^^

Saa tosissaan lisätä halutessaan. Pelaan enimmäkseen kultaa, mutta välillä tulee eksyttyä platinuminkin sekaan.

Added all you folks, hopefully we'll squeeze some games out of this

When it comes to gaming ID, recognizability didn't honestly even cross my mind at the beginning and yes, I guess it is practical when it comes to other players from the same country. But, yeah, like I said, I guess it comes down to names being boring. Nothing more than that, really. smilie

Oh alright, I was just curious about your motives, since the original statement opened a whole lot of possible reasons from being a self-hating Finn, or a cosmopolite, etc. I've seen a lot of people like that after all. Not that I've ever put too much thought into my nicks, or had complicated reasoning behind them either. For me it's been always just some spontaneous crap that's been somehow convenient at the moment of choosing.

There's nothing weird in not liking Finnish TV or movies. It's proven axiom that 99% of it is **** / totally indifferent and unoriginal. The literature and music that's different, but we just seem to be unable to produce good movies or TV-series for some reason(s). Perhaps the vidiot generation redeems the situation in the future, so there might be hope for us after all, but the past and present is pretty meh.

I imagine you guys playing with russians would end in some pretty brutal stuff.

How come? Russians are great, even if communication with them is often very one-sided for both. Nothing really functions as it should, but everything works out in the end somehow. The whole country is like that, and it's pretty awesome and horrible at the same time. Don't mind playing with them most definitely. Good people.

Well, I'm from Finland too, though my Origin ID wouldn't tell you that.

Anyway, I'm not that surprised that I haven't run into that many other Finnish players. If you don't look at leadersboards, it's hard to tell who is from where. Sure, some names are more obvious than others, but most aren't. Top of that, people hardly uses mics in PUG matches, so even that wouldn't help you.

Also, there are 4 different difficulties and still fairly large player base. So, chances of getting another player from, lets say specifically Finland, is not that likely. Even if you would know their ID.

Yeah, it's all true, no doubt about that. In reality it's just been coincidental, that I've been unlucky (or lucky, depending how you want to look at it), when I met so few whom are obviously Finnish. It just felt odd, since seriously I've seen one group, whom I've run into twice, but besides that no one. I have something like 500-600 pug games under my belt atm. When I was playing on Xbox, I recall seeing those obviously Finnish players all the time, that I didn't pay any attention towards it. Now It feels like I have better odds of running into a Siberian tiger on my backyard than a Finn in ME3 mp.

Btw, if you are the number one of the Finnish leaderboards, I think I played a match which you hosted some hours ago (gold, geth, Ghost Hazard)! Didn't figure you out as a Finn then, so that too kind of proves the point you are making.

Lol, that "running into A Siberian tiger" is really good parable and I do feel the same. In all my pug games, I have played only with few that I'm sure are fFnns.

Hmm, if you have same origin ID as you have here, then yeah I remember that game. Though I wouldn't have known that you're Finn either without this thread.

Ja tosiaan, unohdin mainita Origin ID:ni, joka on FrozeShadow. Voi lisätä, jos niin haluaa.
