Yes, I said what its demographic was. That has no relation to how that demographic came to be. You are blurring two completely different things, why?

I'd only be super interested if someone from the Austral-Asia region were offering a dedicated service.

Yeah. Even worse in New Zealand, Internet here is expensive and thus is game hosting. Not even an option for a broke person like me hah.

Supply/Demand, dude.
Economics don't really work like that.
People will still buy the supply, because there is a demand for it.
Kalphiter seems to have it priced reasonably enough. Don't see why you're complaining about other people playing the game. If they make a server, they stay on their server and draw other 'noobs' to their server.
It gets them out of the way so you can go about your daily Blockland business.
Rub:
Didn't really want this to get out until I was ready to launch but whatever.
For worldwide connections, New York is the best place, that's where the server will be. New York is expensive, but it's ideal.
Edit: just re-read some of this thread, multiple servers for different geographic regions is a possibility, I can't see Australia/Asia being one of those though due to equipment cost and low demand from the BL audience. The vast majority of traffic to Australia is routed through Los Angeles, so a server there or somewhere on the West Coast would definitely be an option.
Manty:
Lub a dub dub's.
Kniaz:
Yeah, the Austral regions don't make up for much of Blockland's community- but if you were to get a west coast server I'd be all over it in no time.
