Default Country flag on ladder stats

Theres a flag pack and if your country isnt in the pack it wont get listed

EDIT: Actually nvm there seems to be something funny happening since people who previously had flags now dont. Might have something to do with the wipe

Ladder uses http://www.hostip.info/ for finding out country from IP address. You can check latest ip address when you hover over the flag in profile page. Also when viewing profile page, and flag is unknown, it is rechecked. To fix the flag, 1) fix location at hostip.info (you can actually change unknown locations there), and 2) refresh profile page.

You can now also click on "unknown flag" on player profile page to fix the location for last known IP address of the player.

Don't think so. It's not a country, "just" "autonomous community" according to wikipedia.

the ladder thing keeps showing my location randomly between US (where I'm actually located) and Romania (where my VPS provider is located). my VPS isn't actually in Romania, but it's reported as such because the company is Romania-based. how2fix? I reported an "Inaccurate Geolocation Result" but it doesn't seem to have helped.
