    That is a question that is tough to answer, mainly because it depends on many factors. Most notably the position you are in Canada, your ISP/transfer rates. If you have high speed broadband, I'd give you a range of... 200ms MAX, which isn't bad for an mmo, if on *sigh* dialup, hard to say, total throwing a dart in the dark guess of maybe 500-ish?

    then I'd throw out (don't hold me to this, I'm just guessing) a range of 50-150, which is standard.

    If I had 250ms avg from Canada to Malay, I wonder how much ping I could have to California. I'm in the far west, and very close to the border - I can drive to Seattle to see some live baseball.

    Hopefully <100 ping. Hopefully.

    Yeah. And in comparison to many people here, it's a heck of a lot better than that of the US internet.

    Hehe, I'm getting better ping to Germany than to California. Maybe I'll go play on the European server?
