    I'm really going to have to start giving reasons. Was baking and too intent on it. Will do it from tomorrow.

    We park it there for the night. We still have so much more to get through. Join us again for more battles tomorrow at lunchtime. Hope to see you then!

    Thanks Omack. Some really great flags here today and I must say it's interesting how different they look in silk.

    I may not be around for the next round. Daytime boarding doesn't work for me. Evening time, I'm game ;)

    Not a great mix, but I like the race-track flag and its colours.

    So Anzoá¡tegui
    Concepción
    Sucre
    Arauca (have to be something pretty special to get through with a bicolour)

    Wow I agree with Cdeb - same please.:)


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,778 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    Missed the first lot

    Anzoâ I like the picture of the region on the flag
    Sucré I love the colours
    I'd say the crest is interesting but that's for a different round if it gets through.

    My favourite colour!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,509 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Brazil Nice use of colour, for a national flag they've done pretty well

    Manabí (ECU) pleasing on the eye

    Misiones (PAR) decent effort


    Sergipe (BRA) meh


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,198 Mod ✭✭✭✭cdeb


    Brazil stands out there as something a bit different and eye-catching.

    The others are all kind of obscure variations on a theme that you think you've seen somewhere, but the more you look at them, the less you can work out where.

    Though I like the coloured flags and the tree (cherry?) in Misiones

    So -

    Brazil
    Misiones
    Manabi
    Sergipe


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,712 ✭✭✭Sawduck


    Brazil - I have always been a huge fan of the Brazilian flag
    Misiones
    Manabí
    Sergipe


  • Registered Users, Subscribers Posts: 47,298 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Misiones (PAR) - flags on a flag. Flagception!
    Brazil - it wouldn't be a World Cup without the iconic Brazilian flag.
    Manabí (ECU) - it's OK, I like the red, white and green combination on a flag
    Sergipe (BRA) - just lazy really, isn't it? Take a Brazilian flag and rearrange some of the bits and that'll do. No it won't, try harder!

    We'll get one more afternoon bout in folks. Standby.


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


    Two things to note in this upcoming match. I've found silky versions for all four so it's a fair bout. And if you think you've seen one of these before in the contest, it's because it's very similar but slightly different.
