    Just two places are up for grabs in the next stage, only one of these can grab it though.

    Papua New Guinnea, pretty cool.

    I'll have to row behind PNG in this one. Grenada is more like something you'd hang on your wall. PNG is more fitting to fly above a government building.

    Papua


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,597 ✭✭✭Ferris_Bueller


    Papua New Guinea - bit too much going on in the other one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,499 ✭✭✭✭Tauriel


    Papua New Guinea


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,037 ✭✭✭Cosmo Kramer


    PNG, but I was sure Grenada were knocked out in the last round? I remember being pleased because that flag is a complete mess.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,024 ✭✭✭✭Baggly


    PNG just a little more interesting, obviously symbolic, and with a better combination of colours.

    PNG.

    I think you are right actually, did they go out in a three way tie with Turkmenistan & North Korea?

    Can’t even read my own country codes. I f*cked up. Hold tight!

    Apologies for the human error. Match 15 restarts now.
    Papua New Guinea

    VS

    Greece

    Papua New Guinea, even if you take the red border away from Grenada it still looks horendous and not worthy of being called a national flag.
    The jigsaw piece progresses.


    Jesus wept. (John 11:35)

    Yeah but keep going to the next paragraph
    John 11:36 Then the Jews Vexoligists said, “See how he we loved him Nepal!”


    Edit: Still going with PNG, Greece might have stood a chance if they had used the Flag of the President of Greece but not that Scandanavia or Stripes mismatch.

    PNG

    🙈🙉🙊



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,597 ✭✭✭Ferris_Bueller


    Sticking with Papua New Guinea. Greek flag too much of an optical illusion.


  • Posts: 13,688 ✭✭✭✭ Olivia Yellow Selenium


    PNG - Not even Archimedes can save Greece in this one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,037 ✭✭✭Cosmo Kramer


    Sticking with PNG.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,265 Mod ✭✭✭✭cdeb


    I'd vote Grenada over Greece tbh.

    And PNG over both of them


  • Registered Users Posts: 63 ✭✭Revit Man


    PNG - love the southern cross

    I'm sticking with png too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Papua New Guinea wins!


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Papua New Guinea again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,037 ✭✭✭Cosmo Kramer


    PNG looking strong, I don't think Greece and Grenada combined got a single vote against them there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,956 ✭✭✭✭Omackeral


    Last stop before Round 4 kicks off
    Barbados

    Namibia, nice strong colours and a sun in the corner. If only Barbados had a brighter shade of yellow in the middle.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,138 ✭✭✭Uncharted


    Barbados.

    Nice evocative tropical design.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,037 ✭✭✭Cosmo Kramer


    Namibia for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,706 ✭✭✭Montage of Feck


    I like bought of them, but Barbados just edges it with the trident.

    So for Round 4 we are doing away with quotas. It’s most votes within 30 minutes wins and you must have a valid reason for your vote to count. In the event of a draw, I’ll cast a deciding vote. Let’s kick it off.
    Marshall Islands

    VS

    Bhutan

    Bhutan. That dragon will get my vote every single time!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 243 ✭✭md323


    Im going with the Marshall islands.
    Like the colours and the star .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,039 ✭✭✭✭EmmetSpiceland


    Marshall Islands, it’s going to take more than a rollerskating dragon to beat laser beams for me.

    Bhutan. Dragon is class


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,775 ✭✭✭bmorrissey


    Missed all weekends votes and only caught up now, great work so far.

    Marshall Islands, everything on the flag represents something even down to each individual point on the star.
