I don't know what crack you are huffing Anthony but people from London still get 60+ ping to Icelandic servers. They have a very good network infrastructure but not that good.

Only place this is useful is for playing against US or Canada in NWWC to make it more even. But if you have to face Eastern teams they will get closer to 100 ping at the very least which I can tell you now they will not agree to.
Knightmare is from Albania, no?

This was idea proposed before but it actually is a lot worse than you think. From my city to Reykjavik is 144 ping. This is actually worse than the ping I would get on a London or Paris server.

All that matters is the fiber cable direct lines going from cities. That's why someone like Yoloswag or people from New York (city proper) are able to get 70-80ms ping in Warband compared to someone in PA (Pennsylvania for EU's who don't know their geography) who would get 120. Geographically not much of a difference, but a massive difference going from copper cable to fiber optic cables.

Bingo!

When I lived in London I would get 80 ping to most NA servers which at times was lower than NA's themselves. People kind of forget that infrastructure is key.

Not that this is particularly good, but went on speedtest.net and changed the server to one in Reykjavik, I'm getting 63ping, Sweden 55ping and Germany 60ping. Unless I'm on google fibre, there's no chance I'm getting 15ping, then again I might be pleasantly surprised once the server has released.

Do you have prior experience connecting to NW Icelandic servers xD it could turn out when I host the server it gives everyone 150ping because of routing issues.
And yeah ofc for NWWC I feel the spirt of the game would be to play in the server location that the majority of people get the fairest distribution of ping. So for Eastern players a london or french server would be best if it was NA vs RUS or TUR.

Dang thats a fair point. Well if thats the case that Icelandic servers have bad routing and give people higher ping then thats a rip.
Ill host the server anyways and test it out worst case it fails best case it works.
