I
decided that addresses falling under the following sub-domains probably
represent clients coming from consumer/personal ISP accounts. No attempt
is made to exhaustively cover all possible consumer-related domains, so
this list provides a rough lower bound.
.da.uu.netI attempted to make home vs work inferences about domain names outside the non-regional domains of ".com", ".net", ".edu", and ".org". Unfortunately it wasn't possible to do so accurately (due to my own ignorance of the ISPs in different countries). So, the "XX% of players do so from home" analysis is relative to the number of players on my server who fell under the ".com", ".net", ".edu", and ".org" domains.

Note: I've decided ".edu" is more like 'work' use (clients are using university/school infrastructure to access the Internet).
