http://www.tolvuleikir.is/links.php

Could you be so nice for me and add this link in your link page. But I have already linked your page in there. So it should be fair enough you do the same thing for me.

This page is almost like the fanventures.com but it is only for icelandic people. But I can link your game there if you want me to do it.

This is a icelandic page about everything about computer game of any kind. This new homepage was started on wednesday in last week. I have already announced your game there so more guest from Iceland can visit this place.


Please AGDI. Will you be so kind for me and do it. :D

This is the page I want you to add in the link page.

I can't read Spanish??? :(

It's not Spanish, it's Icelandic.

To tell you the truth, I'm not really sure if it's useful to add a site to the links-section that 99% of all our visitors won't be able to read.

Well when you put it like that of course it's gonna sound bad!  :p

If I may ask: what sounds bad and how else would you advice me to word it, then?

Google can automatically convert the language into English (or whatever) so it could work.

No it can't. It does German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean and Chinese, but not Icelandic.

Well you said his site wasn't gonna work becuase no one can read the language. So basically you were saying it was bad.....I think.........DON'T HURT ME!!!!! :eek

I didn't say it was bad...I said that there may not be much of a point in linking to a site that very few people can read. Just like there wouldn't be much of a point in me only speaking in dutch around here.

WOW!

FG, there is a whole big world outside of Phoenix, Arizona. And they speak other languages there too. Erpy is from The Netherlands where they speak Dutch.

Hey. Could be fun to get a list of AGDI-fans' languages. Just a thought. :)

Ok I understand. Only 0,12% are Icelandic visitors here. And that is me and...hey where are the other 0,8%. Icelandic people?

Hey wait a minute here.  Am I still the only Icelandic regular visitor here? Ok make it then 0,04% are people from a Iceland. And that's all my fault.  It is getting so boring here when I have no icelandic friend or visitor to talk to here.  Oh well....

But I just hope in some day more of my kind of people will come here. I feel like a stranger here, sometimes..you know, like a alien or something else.

Hey don't worry I mean no harm to anybody, I came here in this earth with peace.

I think you need to brush up on your percentages, Fribbi. 1 person!=1%.

Last time I checked, we only have 3 people registered that are from Iceland, but you're the only one who regularly comes here.

Since we currently have 2472 registered users, that means a single person constitutes (1/2472)*100% of all members, which is ~0.04%. Counting all 3 of you, Icelandic people represent 0.12% of the forum population.

Granted, people may speak Icelandic even though they're not from Iceland - but there aren't many of those.

Thanks Pidgeot. I was just guessing on the percentage.

'Don't understand why you feel like a stranger/outsider here!?!? We're from all over the world, with some countries having only 1 visitor.

Hey Navy/Relight: Can you perhaps post a list of countries with listed visitors on this site. Come on. I know your webstats can give you that!  :p

Yeah... I can probably dig the list up. I'm at work right now though. You could always check out the World Map.

Speaking about that AGDI World Map. My homeland is so small for us icelandic visitors to mark us into this map. Only three people are there on the map. If more of my people are going to mark themself into this map they will place their mark on the sea... Hmm maybe is that the real reason why there is so few people of my kind here.  Lots of them has already drowned there because of the tiny landspace we have there on this map bwhahahahahahaha. :rollin

I'm replacing the current map here before too long. Unfortunately, I think I'm going to lose all the current posts. Relight said he'd link to the map from the main site, so I doubt it will take too long to fill back up.

your country is so small? hell i could fit my island inside iceland about 100 times or more. hehe. if someone else from barbados tried to put himself on the adgi world map it would be a really tight fit :)

I got a idea. How about if you click on land and let a pop-up window appear and display the namelist about who lives in that country instead of placing all those markers on the map? It will solve that problem you know.

Ha. I don't think I go to the main site more than once a year. (Or whenever theres a journels update). My bookmarks lead me straight here.

There is actually quite a bit of traffic that goes to the main site that never makes it here. The guestbook is now hosted on this site, though it's set up so that most people don't realize it. We've gotten quite a few hits on it since I opened it back up again in May.

EDIT: Here is the list of countries for June:

:eek We barely made it in the list, but for a relatively small country we did quite well, if I may say so myself...

Thanks Navy! :)  Cool! Quite a few South Africans! I rarely go to the main site, so it's not me!  It looks pretty similar (%) to the SSS one. Interesting! :)
