aaronjennings · 17-04-2021 3:57pm #1

Welcome everyone to the reveal of my Flags of the World - Peehs Game!

Which one of our 29 budding vexillologists will come out on top of the flag pole?

Come and join us at 7.30pm (depending on the whether or not the FA Cup game goes to extra time) to find out

beakerjoe · 17-04-2021 5:30pm

My flag is at half mast.... i mean my fly is open

Reberetta · 17-04-2021 5:48pm

My prediction for the podium is

1. Homer J. Fong
2. Omackeral
3. KathleenGrant

I might be in the running for the wooden spoon.

ShaneU · 17-04-2021 6:14pm

I was dreadful at this

- 5 of the 71 correct answers were Aces

- Unfortunately, there were 30 incorrect answers submitted

- 5 of those incorrect answers would have been correct had they been chosen elsewhere

ari101 · 17-04-2021 6:22pm

Definitely feeling I have one or two of those incorrect answers... :pac:

Sawduck · 17-04-2021 6:31pm

I was thinking I did alright at this but now I'm not so sure, think I may have got some mixed up

quickbeam · 17-04-2021 6:49pm

I swotted up on flags a few years ago and I think I'd have known them all if asked then. Now, I'm much less sure of them. Though even if I knew them all, I have an uncanny ability to pick sheep when I want peehs and peehs when I want sheep, so definitely not expecting much here.

Irish Aris · 17-04-2021 6:51pm

I think I might be OK on correct answers, though I doubt many of them will peehs.

Kiss of death, cheers Reb.

Aaron I'll check in later to get my spoon.

KathleenGrant · 17-04-2021 7:16pm

i thought I was going to be amazing at this. Biggest flag nerd that I know. But for 2 rounds I had a complete blank.

In any case I am the happiest girl woman auld wan that hasn't had a covid jab yet, to get to think and talk about flags for the next couple of hours.

So happy!!

Zaph. Purgative and Sawduck are 3 that come to mind for me also.
Think if there is any justice though the trophy, cup, crown, medal, laurel wreath should be Omack's.

Go Omack!

aaronjennings · 17-04-2021 7:27pm

Reveal shall take place shortly, stand by for the first set of answers

Oh thanks Kat, now I'm going to look like Mr Thickee.

Doing this Peehs reminded me a bit like French at school - I knew the words, just no idea what they translated to.

That's nice but I think you might have shuddered a little at my answers

aaronjennings · 17-04-2021 7:35pm

A tricky start, with most people choosing to play it safe by sticking with the one European flag in this round. Some people took risks by veering in to other continents, unfortunately a tactic which did not work out for everyone

I think either you or Omack will win it, the king and queen of flags

I just googled Austria... Hahaha

I was pretty sure it wasn't Austria, but couldn't figure out why I was thinking of that... maybe there are some flags buried in my subconscious after all...
I do have another couple of incorrects to come probably :pac:

17-04-2021 7:43pm

I’m just gonna pop to home store and more to get a big bowl for the wooden spoon.

Brb.... :pac:.....

aaronjennings · 17-04-2021 7:43pm

22 people will be screaming at their screens right now, as almost everyone avoided the blindingly obvious France, making it a good answer for those who chose it
