Sorry but i thikn that in Spain we have more or less the same weather as in Greece/italy and we got better statistics and as well we are 4 times bigger than greece Ofc the weather got quite a lot to do with it, summer parties ftw!

as you can clearly see, Germans are the best players since they have 18 guilds that are 6/7 heroic and like 100-150 guilds with 1/7 - 5/7 heroic
Stop standing in fire...
Most of the greek players got really high ego and they are not mature enough, thats why there arent many greek guilds. However there are many good greek players in good guilds, Method and Ensidia to give an example.
I think people in Greece are too busy enjoying the sunshsine (or rioting :P) to play WoW!
“The church says the earth is flat, but I know that it is round, for I have seen the shadow on the moon, and I have more faith in a shadow than in the church”
-Ferdinand Magellan (1480 – 1521)
I want to add that there are just a few Greek speaking guilds as I know and that does not mean they are Hardcore.. I don't play in a Greek speaking guild and I know that Method has some Greek players as well. Postal, the number one guild in my server has Greek players in.
Even with the economic crisis, we can afford to learn another language than our native one!
Lot of guilds are ranked lower then previous tier thanks to 10 player Baleroc being in state it is.
parallels between economic crisis and WOW is one of the most stupid thing I ever read, it really is
here in Italy we eat about at 20.30, making for us impossible start raiding earlier than 21.00, so every italian guild just raids 3 hours at night
more, in summer people just stop playing because of the weather, we all spend nights hanging out and Firelands came out in a very bad moment, as ToC did 2 years ago
last but not least, italian community sucks pretty much, and being Italy the only italian speaking country it's hard to find good players
anyway, aNc, italian guild from Genjuros, is world top 150
You do know what the difference between 300-400 ms at best on 100$ costing internet is to an American on 5-40ms is?
On Australian internet the fact is we have a 1-1.5 second gap of where we usually have to preemptively move to avoid mechanics in hard fights and including those pesky 1.5 second interrupts that half of usually precast our interrupt ability with.
