Found something slightly related..
I wonder how many tokens these guys had.Vietnam is currently the world’s second biggest prison for netizens, with seventeen detainees: Nguyen Van Tinh, Nguyen Manh Son, Nguyen Van Tuc, Ngo Quynh, Nguyen Kim Nhan, Phan Thanh Hai, Pham Van Troi, Vu Van Hung, Tran Quoc Hien, Tran Duc Thach, Truong Quoc Huy, Dieu Cay, Nguyen Tien Trung, Nguyen Xuan Nghia, Vi Duc Hoi, Le Cong Dinh and Pham Minh Hoang. In addition, three journalists – Tran Khai Thanh Thuy, Truong Minh Duc and Nguyen Van Ly – are still behind bars.
Expressed above is my own opinion. ☻ Your results may vary.

Haha I never noticed that but I do hate when I'm waiting on a player with no bids and 5 seconds left right as I am about to bid 3 or 4 people start to bid on that player.
I've met one guy from Thailand who I've seen on a couple of players I've been interested in(see vent thread) checked his team/stadium and walked out shaking my head before I even got into a war, I assume he must have bought at least a couple of thousand tokens and he's only on season 3. just hope I never end up in the same league as him!...
Having said that for all his spending his team is only like 3Q on average higher than mine and he's amassed around 10x as many tokens!
Should Kaka' have been selected for Brazil's WC squad?

The thing is that countries like Vietnam only got access to new technologies fairly recently, internet games like these are like IRC in Europe 15 years ago. Not everyone had internet at home and meeting people over the internet was exciting.
Cyber cafes here in the West were already disappearing by the time the Vietnamese government started to sponsor a program to give mass internet access to its people.
It is a matter of social history and its effects on the people.
It seems as Vietnamese are acting like new rich people. It's what happened in Brazil when Lula da Silva started a national program to give internet access to everyone. Many internet games had to ban Brazil at some point because its new netizens would flood servers. If a Brazilian was banned in Warcraft 3, they would spread the word and invade.
The thing is... Don't be fooled thinking people here in the West can't buy tokens or win a bid war over an internet game, because we are dumb or because we don't have the money, we just don't see the point, it doesn't rock our boat that way.
The frustration of the opening poster is because most people here play this to chill out, this is already post-tech for us, we can't understand how someone in the other side of the world plays this so seriously and kills all the joy by overtaking a Facebook game.
