[01/03/2016 16:28:49] David H - Patinum WL: Yes from south Ireland.. Officially known as "Republic of Ireland"



^ Proof

Lol, no, Ireland is part of the British Isles, not Great Britian, noobs...

Also I'm in, Kent represent!

I can speak British, am I in?

What scares me more than that screenshot?

That you can't spell my name "Patinum"

This makes me question your reliability for screenshotting!

You qualify more than Platinum, Jeff!

I'll join. I don't consider myself British but I politically and geographically am... *sigh*

May as well join while I am still British, right?

Medium Earth Weighted Random please! =)

If not then Guiroma ^^

Makes me wonder what you consider "British" seeing as the name refers to the island you are standing on.

Unless perhaps you weren't born here, in which case then I guess you can always go back home.

Well it sounds like Ox is Scottish, which isn't part of Britain, BUT it is part of the UK and since it's a UK tourney, he qualifies! lol

"qalifies!"

And you call me bad at spelling?

I would like the MME SR Template!

I am descended of British colonists in the 1600's. The town I grew up in is named after a town in England. I can correctly pronounce Worcester, MA. I know that Leicester is at the top of the EPL table and that you guys don't give a crap about American football even though we try and shove it down your throat. Who has more of a claim to this tourney, me or Plat?

"isn't part of Britain"

Wa...

Did Scotland suddenly move to another island?

It is part of Great Britain, but not Britain.

Britain only refers to England and Wales.
Great Britain refers to England, Wales and Scotland.
The UK is Great Britain and Northern Ireland (but not Ireland)

It's confusing i know :D

Bonsai, I would say you qualify! More than Plat anyway :D

Britain is an island that has England, Wales and Scotland on it.

I would like the MME SR Template!

Plat iS BO-RING

It's not confusing, it's simple, but since when did "Britain" only refer to just England and Wales? That's never been the case unless you're just making stuff up, see the image I just posted for clarification.

Scotland is both part of Great Britian and the British Isles, it's as much a part of Britain as anything can be.

But no Scot actually considers themself British.

Walk up to a Scot, and say "what country do you come from?" They will NOT say "UK" or "Great Britain", they'll say "Scotland"

"Britain" is usually taken as short for "Great Britian" but it doesn't really mean anything, it could mean the British Isles just as much, it depends on context more than anything.

Some people also consider it to refer to the UK, but as that's something that changes over time I don't think that's a very accurate use of the word.

Ox, that's the same in England, but we're also not retarded enough to not be aware that we are also part of the UK and also on a British isle.
