I've got no beef with foreigners joining, it's just like Ashitaka said, there's no real point joining a clan that will be playing and practicing out of your normal gaming hours. If you're willing to stay up until ungodly hours of the night/morning, welcome aboard!
Most people like the name, and the use of latin words. If anyone has any problems with it for any reason just say so <!--emo&???--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'><!--endemo-->

I like [AUS], it lets people know where we're from (well most of us anyway).
but one thing I'm a bit iffy on is the choice of latin words. Roughly translated, Anzac Uncia Sept says: Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, 12th Division.
Now we may be the 12th NS clan, but we are the first Australian clan, so having 12 in our name is slightly misleading. We could replace uncia with a word for first or one.
According to an English to Latin translator I found: <b>one</b> 1. aliquis 2. una, unum, unus
We could have una, unum or unus instead of uncia. And since those three words all start with u it wouldn't mess up our tag. So instead of the rough translation of our name being: Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, 12th Division
It would be: Australian and New Zealand Army Corps, 1st Division which makes a bit more sense.
We have about 6-7 people now keep it coming <!--emo&:p--><img src="http://www.natural-selection.org/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'><!--endemo-->

The words I found weren't Latin to my knowledge. :-D
