It's been a while since we had one of these so I figured it would be interesting to see if there are any changes.
I want as many as possible to answer this poll + it needs to be active for at least 24 hours to have a trustworthy result, so please help bumping it in times of need!

Sadly the language we will be using is C#.
This has made me get familiar with VirtualBox. Which I find amazing - especially the new 1.5 version with seemless desktop feature.

You just have to add the repositories and apt-get install virtualbox.

I'm listening to Saskatchewan by Les Trois Accords right now, so I see all sorts of funny images when I think of that province :)
I like the Canadian music scene, particularly the Quebec one.

Bugger, America has woken up.
I suspect North America will continue to grow disproportionately compared to the others until Asia and Australia start catching up in a few hours. But so far, it seems like Europe is still the number one continent in terms of Ubuntu Forums users. In the end North America will probably be stable at about 35%, Europe around 50% and the rest of the continents sharing the remaining 15%.
But we'll see :)

The majority of users have been from Europe in the past 3-4 polls or so. But is indeed surprising, especially considering most of the European languages have their own separate support forums. There are probably even more European and South American users of Ubuntu than the poll statistic indicates.

Very surprising results. I knew we had a lot of European members here, but I didn't think they out numbered North Americans. I was also shocked by how few Australians we have. I was expecting them to be number three right after NA and EU.

That's just silly. The question wasn't "which political union?", but "which continent?". The UK is in Europe. It's a question of continental plates. So get over it.

Hm. Guess it's officially accurate now. I don't think Asia/Australia was given a fair shot at responding to the poll though.
