Accents
Can you imagine with the countries and areas of the US represented here....how goofy all our accents would sound if we were all in the same room?
I have a fairly obvious southern drawl.....I would think so does Stoneheather. How about the rest of you? I like hearing people's accents and the words they use.

You should jump on WGN teamspeak. Theres guys from all over the world and what gets me is sometimes you just can't guess where there from. Some of the Dutch guys sound like they come from north america.

I have friends from all over, as I know Duke does, it's a blast talking to people on TeamSpeak and hearing the different accents.

We'll likely be getting a teamspeak channel once we have enough members to help pay for it through tiered membership.

I thought I had a Russian accent until I was told by several people they had no idea that it was my first language...

Still looking.
We do have Teamspeak through Fragtard.net but I think we can only pay for 10 - 15 slots.
