QF 3 - Expires at 17:47

Prince Edward Island



VS

Wyoming

Wyoming. The absolute cut of that other yoke.

ArnoldJRimmer

The Wyoming flag is not loading for me, but I know in advance that it can't possible be as sh!t as PEI, so it gets my vote

Pawwed Rig

Wyoming - not a good spot to run out of petrol

Purgative

Prince Edward Island - Does what it says on the tin. An island with trees and lions.

Pei don’t like the cow

The flag of Prince Edward Island features the English heraldic lion which appeared both on the coat of arms of Prince Edward, Duke of Kent, for whom the province is named, and on that of King Edward VII. The lower two-thirds show an island on which appear three small oak saplings (on the left) – representing the three counties of PEI (Prince, Queens, and Kings) – under the protection of a great oak tree which represents Great Britain. This symbolism is also reflected in the provincial motto, Parva sub ingenti (the small under the protection of the great).




The flag of the state of Wyoming consists of the silhouette of an American bison. The red symbolizes the Native Americans and the blood of pioneers who gave their lives. The white is a symbol of purity and uprightness. The blue is the color of the skies and distant mountains. It is also a symbol of fidelity, justice and virility. The bison represents the local fauna, while the seal on it symbolizes the custom of branding livestock.


Thought sure I would vote the other way but it's going to be Wyoming for me. Love the symbolism.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Wyoming, much better than the PEI

Hill St Blue

Wyoming

Cosmo Kramer

Wyoming. I didn't like the PEI flag before but now that it turns out their big tree represents their British overlords I like it even less.

Seriously, come on Canada, you're better than this.

quickbeam

Prince Edward Island. It’s great. I don’t get the hate.

alchemist33

Two of my favourites and I'm going for Wyoming. Although I don't like seals on flags, this one is almost a watermark, with the cool bison getting prominence

Barna77

Flipped a coin, so Wyoming

Omackeral

Wyoming does it. A superb run from the sparsely populated state!

Omackeral

Quarter Final 4. Last stop before the semis. This match expires at 18:45. Please give reasons for your choices.

New Brunswick



VS

New Mexico

Also Starring LeVar Burton

New Mexico, just like it better.

quickbeam

Ooooh, two good ones here. I'll vote New Brunswick, because it's got a nice boat on it. But I wouldn't even mind if it was New Mexico that won this round.

Citizenpain

New Mexico , less going on

Zaph

New Mexico, pleasingly simple

Cosmo Kramer

New Mexico, nice and simple flag. Too much going on with the other one. Sometimes less is more.

Fr Tod Umptious

New Mexico - very different from most US flags.
New Brunswick is too similar to PEI because of the lion.

New Mexico - quality flaggage. The other yoke is a painting.

Badly Drunk Boy

New Mexico. Breaking Flags.

KathleenGrant

It appears the symbolism of the flag of New Brunswick is uncertain.
The golden lion on red in the New Brunswick coat of arms may refer to the arms of England (a red shield with three golden lions) or to the arms of the duchy of Brunswick in Germany, which has two golden lions on red. On the bottom part of the New Brunswick shield is the heraldic vessel known as a lymphad, which may refer to the ship-building activities of the province or to the vessels in which many Loyalists arrived in New Brunswick from the United States in the late 18th century.

The flag of the U.S. state of New Mexico consists of a red sun symbol of the Zia people on a field of yellow, and was officially introduced in 1925. It was designed in 1920, to highlight the state's Native American Pueblo and Nuevo México Hispano roots. The colors evoke the flags of Habsburg Spain (the Cross of Burgundy), Spain and the Crown of Aragon, brought by the conquistadors.
It is one of four U.S. state flags not to contain the color blue (the other three being Alabama, California, and Maryland). It is the only one of these four not to contain the color white. The flag of the District of Columbia also has no blue, although it is partially white, making the New Mexico flag the only US flag with no blue or white.


Ok once again changing my mind. For me, after reading that, it has to be New Mexico.

Purgative

New Brunswick, its a nice boat.

Barna77

New Mexico because of breaking bad

ArnoldJRimmer

New Mexico, as its such a cool flag

cj maxx

New Brunswick for the boat, Viking ?

Hill St Blue

New Mexico for me...lovely simplicity. I'm not a fan of the long drawn out lions tbh.

Pawwed Rig

New Mexico

Clarabel

New Mexico. The other one is too fussy

Omackeral

New Mexico wins by quite some distance!

alchemist33

Another 2 favourites for me. But this is where I ditch NM (even though it'll probably win). The New Brunswick ship is class so I'll vote for NB.

Edit: whoops

Omackeral

Semi Final 1 - 60 Minutes. Most votes wins. Expires at 20:05. Reasons are mandatory!

Alaska



VS


Wyoming

Hill St Blue

Wyoming...the buffalo is quite iconic.

quickbeam

Alaska because I love the Plough.

Bison > the wonky backward Nike swoosh.

Also Starring LeVar Burton

Alaska just enjoy the simplicity of it

Citizenpain

Alaska . So simple

Fr Tod Umptious

Alaska
Even though there is a buffalo on the Wyoming one they managed to brand it with a feckin state seal.

You can't move for a feckin state seal on an American state flag.

So Alaska, simpler.

KathleenGrant

I am sticking with Wyoming I love the symbolism of it and the bison is cool.I also like the stamp on the bison

Wyoming, it tells a nice story.

Badly Drunk Boy

Two good flags but Alaska wins this for its simplicity yet scientific endeavour. (It has a bit of astronomy).

Pawwed Rig

Both potential winners but I will go with Wyoming

Tornaxx

Alaska. I like thw colours.
