I asked on the French section of Gyrotek if people there could come here to take part to the conversation and bring some activity.
I hope it will work. On your side, if you have some freinds who like powerballs or just discussing about anything, bring them here.
Gyrotek is not ONLY a powerball community, there are a lot of general topics...
Then, i'd like you to give your opinion on this question:
How would you classify the Gyrotek community? (The Force InsIde)
Just answer the poll and develop you answer here if you want. Thank you _________________ Help Gyrotek when you buy your Powerballs, use our banner:International, France, Thanks!!

Well ok then. I gave the answer "both", but at this moment there is a large unbalance between the two. While the French community increases (which is great of course) the activity on the international forum has reduced to a very low level.
So, I guess there is work to do to make Gyrotek play a serious role as an international community. Obviously, I will do my best to contribute to that.
Best regards,

Yes, the montly scoreboards are very cool. That will stimulate to keep on recording and submitting videos, even when you don't make a personal record.
Good work.
Best regards,
The Force
P.S. How about the monthly prizes? Can we now participate too? _________________ Personal records:

If we find a good sponsor why not...but France Powerball is only giving prizes on the french section because of the geographical zones in the powerball world...I guess you heard about this... _________________ Help Gyrotek when you buy your Powerballs, use our banner:International, France, Thanks!!

Ok, I will contact my friend from Mill-products.com ;-) and ask him if he is willing to cover all other countries for the prizes.
I will keep you posted.

I think that quite a few "International" people are noticing Gyrotek when they go to the Powerballs.com Forums, and people who are strangers to me are certainly posting their scores on the Gyrotek mini-league, (though I've removed a few from people I'm sure have never actually come here). But unfortunately it would seem that now the PB.com forums are better it's perhaps making people no bother coming here...these forums are certainly a bit quieter lately, which is a real shame.
I've tried to pursuade people to come here, but I don't really know any other Powerballers. At a website I used to go to there was a lot of discussion about Powerballs, and I tried to pursuade some people from there to come here, but no luck I'm afraid.
I like the new scoreboards though, and the video section continues to improve loads. I think it would be good if more Frenchies came here...I can't really post there as my French is rubbish and on-line translators don't really help at all. _________________ 250Hz: (L/R)

Honestly, I think that many people will end up here if they search for powerball information, but it is also the french language which is a problem for most of them. Itmight be difficult to accept, but english is more widely spoken than french. If you want to be international, you should speak english.
Now, I am not saying that people are not willing to speak english here. Definitely not, and I have seen the reactions on Obiw4n's post that more french gyrotek members will visit the international part. Very positive I would say. Please do so, and gyrotek will become much more popular for sure.

I agree. First time I went to a chat evening I think I was the only English person there, and they nearly all did their best to speak English so that I could join in. Very sporting I thought. _________________ 250Hz: (L/R)

I think everyone has to make an effort to speak english, many people here don't speak english everyday and it's hard for them to make the first step.
I think posting a record shouldn't be too difficult for anyone.
Thank you all for your efforts concerning the international part. The best thing to do is to bring people more features and informations here than anywhere else on the internet....and of course advertise... _________________ Help Gyrotek when you buy your Powerballs, use our banner:International, France, Thanks!!

In the meantime I got very positive responses from Mill-products.com and powerball-europe.com about my question about sponsoring. Obviously, I now want to discuss with Yod4 and Obiw4n on how to proceed.
Please contact me tonight on MSN (21:00+) so that we can discuss.
