    1. Nuevo León - what's with all the power station images? Still best of these for me
    2. Oaxaca - I like parts of this flag but not sure about the prominence of such a forthright motto (though a good sentiment)
    3. Querétaro - cartoonish but better than the last one
    4. Yucatán - unattractive snoozefest

    Pick this one up with some knockout action. See you then.

    Not sure yet but I'll give notice before kickoff


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,786 ✭✭✭KathleenGrant


    PS I really like the new voting format. More work for you but fairer result after each voting group I would think.


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


    I sometime like to mix it up like that. Reason in this case is that many of the flags looked similar from the outset so just gave it a bash this way


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


    2PM for the start of the knockout round.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,628 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    Fell out of this last night before the finish, and won't be able to take part this afternoon (until much later than 2pm anyway) I'm afraid.



    Good luck to Chihuahua! I'm rootin' for ya!!! :D


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


    Welcome to Round 2. We revert to our one on one matches and it's straight knockout. In this round, each bout will last for 20 minutes. In the event of a tie, any reasons submitted will be used as tie-breakers.

    Jalisco, much more interesting flag in a sea of white. I don't dislike the competition but this has more to it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Baja California Sur Tidy flag, quite striking and the shells are a pleasant alternative to shields, castles, et al

    Jalisco.
    Nicer design and colours


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,340 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Jalisco - blue and yellow makes a nice change from all the white

    Chiapas - I like the imagery and it is not as fussy as the alternative


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Chiapas - the Lion trapped on the wrong side of the river.

    Colima - just a bit more sophisticated.

    Quintana Roo, the other one looks like a fight broke out when they were deciding what flower to put on it and then just went with them all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,403 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Quintana Roo - It's got a nice colourful Aztec vibe about it whereas the other one is clearly the work of colonist bastardos with the knight's helmet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Colima - I like the other but the dismembered arm has me hooked

    Colima.

    That arm!! I just love the randomness of it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,835 ✭✭✭ari101

    Saltillo.

    Looks like the wardrobe from Beauty and the Beast.


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47,340 ✭✭✭✭Zaph


    Coahuila, a bit brighter and more pleasing on the eye


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,628 ✭✭✭✭HeidiHeidi


    Coahuila.


    It's got a river, and the seemingly ubiquitous animals hanging from a tree (although I suspect it's meant to be them either side of it!), and just a bit brighter than the other one, which is a bit forbidding.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,511 ✭✭✭Purgative


    Coahuila reminds me of a Spanish resort crest something like Cala Millor.

    That’s the halfway point for Round 2. We’ll get the remainder done this evening.
