no, you have fun & start to hate EQ-players ... hehe ... and get annoyed by
EQ-players telling that "UO sucks" (quote!) ...
to your subj-question:
Lake Superior is a shard, i.e. a server you can 'live' on. there are many
shards:
Drachenfels (the one i play on)
Lake Superior
Great Lakes
Atlantic
Europe
they are located in different areas of the world. so choose the one that is
closest to you.
but there is one special shard:
Abyss Test - there you get points, so this is a type of 'action'-shard ...

Do they have 40's in Australia? <Grin>
If they add an Australian server I imagine it'll be Aussie only for
the first coupkle months. That'll give you all a leg up on everyone
else who want's to play. The you'll be lagless.
