I've played entire games with people on dial-up and I didn't find out they were on dial-up until later. You just have to make sure that the host is near you geographically and not too many players are in the game.
 
Lol...
You gotta be close geographically to other players and then you say you live in Tahiti. Remind me, but isn't that island about halfway between Australian and South America? Honestly, is there a more "out there" place?

Anyway, good luck once you get DSL.
 
I think playing with Australians is your best chance even though it can be a trifle difficult to find a stable host there. If you have a good computer your chances for better play are increased. What are your specs on it?
