Eastern Standard Tribe

[prog]

During work break, popped in to the Ticket to Ride lobby again. During my visit last night, I noted that nearly all chat seemed to be in English. Now, during the American work day, it's almost entirely in German... and the server is way busier! I guess that by the time American players start to crowd in, it's hours after the server's daily prime time, all the Euro-players having gone to bed.

Nothing too surprising (and there's even been a short novel written around this phenomenon; see subject line), but fun to see it in practice unexpectedly.

Big ol' weak-copyright nut that he is, Cory makes all his novels available for free online (and in a variety of formats, including plaintext), if you just want to read and not own them. http://craphound.com
