HNZ Far and Wide PART I

[Irene Holland]

Let us see how far and wide has HNZ gone? This way, we can find out if we have fellow HNZers in our country or even in our city.

Just comment down your city.​

You're missing some countries here!

 

[Nicolas King]

You're missing some countries here!

I don't know, I'm pretty sure it's got them all.

I still have to add the others. So probably I will have around 5 to 10 Polls with this.

BTW, how many poll choices are allowed per poll?

 

[Wyatt Finch]

My experience on HNZ is that people are primarily from Australia, USA, Canada, Netherlands, UK, NZ & the Philippines. I don't know if it's entirely necessary to list all 200ish countries?

 

[Samuel Phillips]

Maybe instead of making separate polls, you could make one that includes the continents and then ask people to specify which country/city etc they live in, in the thread? Might be a little less confusing that way, but regardless this is a cool idea! Interested to see where everyone is from that I haven't spoken to already!

I was gonna say if these were my only options I'd pick Australia

Nah, Austrian is where it's at. Why would you want to live even closer to Zach?

Haha! But I'd also be closer to all my other favorite HNZers! Plus I want too see if toilets really do flush the other way around

It's kind of surprising how many dutch people are here though in a good way obviously since we're all the best

Agree!! And I'm really suprised by that too. Steven, Tamara and Marijke I already knew from other communities. But I'm loving the others that I've met too.

Daph & I talked about this when she visited me in NZ at the end of last year I looked it up & turns out it doesn't really work on small scale (sinks & toilets) cause the direction of the water pressure can affect it, and it's such a small amount of water it doesn't respond so much to the rotation of the earth, but storms do go the opposite direction depending on which hemisphere you're in. Science is wild.

Can confirm. You will need a very large loo to observe the effects.

Like this one!

This is from a Tokyo museum's interactive display to raise awareness about sanitation issues around the world.

Side note... are those kids wearing little poop hats? That's adorable and unsettling in equal measure.​

 

[Georgiana Night-Carter]

Haha thanks for all the info Hopefully one day I'll be able to cross the hemisphere boundaries to see the storms for myself.

Got your point and will create another topic with this.

New poll and thread is up: http://hogwarts.nz/topic/30314262/1/?x=25#new

Just wanted to mention that my dad's family came from the Netherlands only two generations ago, so my great-grandfather came with his parents to the area I grew up in NY. So I'm sort of dutch too
