especially Russia.in Russia, only Steam users would pay for W:A (not counting 0.0001% of "heroes" which would actually go for an overseas CD). there are lots of torrents, their quantity competes with Brazil (2nd most popular nation on WormNET), they're so many that you see the result.
Interestingly, Russia and Brazil are trailing behind, with only one per 500-550 thousand citizens of these countries being registered on TUS.in fact it's pretty clear why so few are registered on TUS. TUS is not a prerequisite to enter WormNET, nor is it promoted on the official server, or sort of things. 90% of Russians are noobs from torrents with most of them either never learning, stagnating in the same skill level, or stopping to play quickly, but only those to stay long enough and with the desire to play competitively go for TUS.

I doubt torrent usage is connected with education.are you sure? what about 11 year old kids? well I of course didn't say that "all" of them are badly educated, yet you often get to see flaming on #AG.

Okay, that explains a lot. But for example, a country like Italy has brought in a wave of new players to this league in Ano, Angus, Casso, sbaffo, borotalco, Orange, easy and so on. There must be a specific reason for why they've discovered this game and this league, in comparision with for example their neighbours from France?

I can answer this question. In my opinion Communities contributed a lot to the "circulation" of this game. Many players have continued to play this game because there was a community that supported them and helped them. WA would die in 2-3 years without TUS.
I can give an example: 2 years ago Italy was 5th Country here: http://stats.worms2d.info/countries.txt because in that period Community of Worms Mania (the most important Worms Community in Italy) was very active and many players met there and were helped. In the last 2 years Worms Mania's admins were busier, users online decreased from 15-20 to 4-5 about at the same time.
Now you can notice that Italy has dropped to 11th place. (from 6,3 % to 2,7 %).
What exactly is the question about 11 years old kids? I think the two things are even less connected among children/teenagers since they (mostly) don't even have their own money to buy stuff. Now how does langauge come here? I only mentioned torrent usage.lol man, its simple. only an educated person would buy the game, and an uneducated person would just download it, he would never buy something he can download, i don't see anything being complex in this sentence. yes, again, i didn't say that all of such users are like that (would be stupid if I did lol). but still there are, and the main point is that if you compare the percent of uneducated population from both legal and illegal spheres, it'll differ A LOT in the 2nd, to more than 95% compared to first. I doubt that, for example, taner and Godmax actually bought their games. if they did, they would most likely be educated then as they would have enough clue what buying a game is, what earning money is, what living a life is, what is good and bad, and this stuff. uneducated persons don't buy games. sorry but i cant explain it further, i thought it was pretty simple and obvious
Anyway, I didn't want to get into a flame war here, but yes, I'm quite sure about that. Maybe it's different in Russia.
for different reasons many educated people dont pay for games. a well educated person would know this ;Dof course lol, and this is making the 2nd segment: illegal educated users which are quiet and don't shout on channels. they of course take the biggest portion but still a percent of uneducated people among torrenters is high, maybe moderate but not low at all.

ah well, if you still dont get it: by an uneducated person I mean someone often trolling/bullying/flaming in internet, or having intentions to do so, showing no respect, misbehaving and writing badly and other things, i hope you can describe all of this with one word. sorry for confusion
Prankster you missed this, please read the message againah well, if you still dont get it: by an uneducated person I mean someone often trolling/bullying/flaming in internet, or having intentions to do so, showing no respect, misbehaving and writing badly and other things, i hope you can describe all of this with one word. sorry for confusion
those only come from torrent downloads, they would almost never come from a legal purchase. this is the point, nothing else.i just wish i said this properly before and sorry for all this confusion
have to split my edits for you...those only come from torrent downloads, they would almost never come from a legal purchase.
Russians just didn't exist on the servers.
most of Russians never played W:A before because a publisher, Russobit-M released both W:A and WWP at the same time in 2002! which is why they are all for WWP at start
dunno how it works then that many polish ppl still join WormNet :o
I heard you could get the game for free in Poland, not sure how tbh, through a magazine or something.
most of Turkish people has played a worms game in their life once and most of them played worms around 2004-2007 mostly. I remember i was playing wwp offline when i was 7 years old or something xD but unfortunately most of them wont play it now. I was playing wa in 2009, there was lots of good Turkish people like tenxone, cevval, steak, fume. But then i took a long break So after my long break from 2009, i returned in 2012. i saw that theres very few people in wormnet. So i decided to create a Turkish Worms site. And i created ultimateworms.tkSounds like you have done more for promoting worms than our very own worms promotion project team. Great story man, especially having so many turkish members from a country with traditionally less people on wormnet. I'm not sure I could get 37 americans for a worms group, lol. Congratulations on your success.
After creation of UC, i advertised this site to Turkish people in wormnet and some gaming sites. And i have 37 members on UC site now :) Most of people in UC started to play WA online seriously after they met me or registered UC site. I teached everything i know to them and also explained everything i know on UC site. And now they all are good wormers and i proud all of them :-* people of countries who has low number of players should do something like this if they want to increase that number. Its really works.
Instead of this, sometimes in school i offer "if you beat me once in 4 schemes i selected at WA, i ll give you 25 Lira (~14$ , ~10 €)" or something like this to my friends xDD actually this one works too ;D one of my friend thinking to start playing WA now xD

thats rly cool, good work Triad.
thank you so much guys :-*most of Turkish people has played a worms game in their life once and most of them played worms around 2004-2007 mostly.

thanks :-* yeah its a good way. For example i met gh0st in 2012 summer. He even dont know how to play shoppa. Now he's a FAW member. His younger brother Killer just 10 year old but he's very good at rope. AsiLL is classmate of gh0st and started WA in 2013, but he improved himself very fast and we beat che in wxw once with asill :DInstead of this, sometimes in school i offer "if you beat me once in 4 schemes i selected at WA, i ll give you 25 Lira (~14$ , ~10 €)" or something like this to my friends xDD actually this one works too ;D one of my friend thinking to start playing WA now xD
Thats a good way. JohnMcClane was about the same. He and Medal were in the same class and they just ask some others to join, so Oley came. Circle goes bigger and whoops, you have a bunch of newcomers at one slap.
Keep that way! :)
Nowadays it's just easy to download a torrent and try the game.
It wasn't like that in past.
im sure there is alot of game nerds here... ropa comes to mind.MoH = Medal of Honor. Get a ps3 or xbox and join the rest of america, avi.
but for some of us who dont know every title by its abbreviation, what is MoH? any game you played for 11 years makes me wonder if its any good... i like old catchy games, rather then all this new shoot em' up shit

Buying a game or not is just a free will and education has nothing to do with it.Another thing that makes you russians simple minded is that you don't understand the difference between being smart and educated.I agree Education has nothing to do with it, its "how much money you have in your pocket" and " are you willing to spend it on a game just to get it legit" Its mainly ethics, that doesn't come with education.
Education doesnt make you good,bad or smart.It just makes you educated.
Also, if You are (as example) from Norway, You wont find many norwegians players in #ag online, maybe only Masta and Crazy. If You are chilean or brazilian, all the time the wormnet has many wormers connected, so the fact about to find buddies online from the same country helps to increase the popularity in these nations.That reminds me the game called Gunbound, remember it? it was FULL of peruvians, most than any other country.
