    Inspired by Kolido’s quiz, where it seemed a lot of people would have liked a round on flags… how about a whole game dedicated to them? :D


    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_e8PGPrPlwA



    There are a total of 12 rounds, which will be posted immediately after this post

    Standard PEEHS rules apply:

    Please choose one country from each round, ideally the one that you think the fewest people will pick, and PM me a list of your answers

    You will receive one point for every person who chooses your answer. The person with the fewest points at the end of the game will be declared the winner

    Incorrect answers will score 1.5x the Sheep for that question

    NO research allowed

    Reveal will take place in a week or two, the exact time and date will be confirmed closer to that date

    Good luck :)

    Same and they weren't spread evenly, so one decent answer trying to suss the sheep, 3 the only one I know and the rest wtf, I could probably work out my score now.

    On closer look a few more seemed a bit more familiar, so hopefully have managed to get a correct answer in each one, although most likely will SHEEP in each.

    It's like Pointless, you are trying to choose one flag from each group which you recognise, and which you also think the fewest other people will pick. But you're not allowed to Google or look up the answers first

    Once you have your list of 12 answers, just send that list to me in a PM - don't post them on the thread - and then the grand reveal of everyone's answers will happen in a week or two :)

    Pick one flag out of each group (without googling). Try and choose the one that the least amount of people are likely to know. Send your answers to OP (aaronjennings).

    Other instructions will be in post #1

    I'm expecting a titanic battle with Kathleen and Omack going head to head on this one.

    As explained above, but the trick is second guessing everyone. Often the most obvious ones score low as everyone avoids them. But they won't now I've said that. But they will now I've said that. But.... you get the idea :D

    It's all good fun though, and a great crowd hiding in this corner of boards, come and join us :)

    I'm in.


    Once I'd established that I actually did know at least one from each group.....


    I've a head like a total sieve for flags, no matter how many times I see an unusual one and think "I really must remember that for future reference", and even try to tag it in some way in my memory - I still mostly only know the obvious ones.


    And I reckon the footie-fans on here will have a distinct advantage (as well as those who've been playing Omack's flag games for goodness knows how long!)


    Ah well, twas worth giving it a go.....

    I did a "Fun With Flags" round in a table quiz I ran for friends last year. One or two were delighted, others less so! Hoping my research for that stood to me a bit here and I haven't submitted some extremely wrong answers.

    Good work!

    Looking back I could have done it actually, but some would have to be ones I don't want to pick in PEEHS :p

    21 entries in already

    And impressively, only 3 flags have yet to be correctly identified

    Which ones, I wonder...? ;)

    There were a few I couldn't remember.

    I'm expecting judgmental looks from the Flag Lord, Omackeral :o
