    Or you could go for something different and try gameshows/quiz shows

    Krypton Factor v Weakest Link
    Blockbusters v Only Connect

    Pretty much anything is going to be niche to some degree of course.

    To leave out Irish clubs, you'd omit a definite contender in Warrenpoint Town -

    Look at the crappy bunnies! :pac:

    That. Is. Magnificent.

    Ireland has the harp, you silly goose.

    Oh! And who has the silly goose?

    I'd vote for them!

    It's been a literal trip around the globe but you, the good people of Boards.ie, have declared that your Ultimate World Flag Tournament winner is...

    I have had a blast doing this... even though it's all been done pain-stakingly on my phone (except Round 2 which was on a highjacked work computer). It's so great and a bit surreal to bring so many together over bloody colours, shapes and patterns! Thanks so much for all your witty, informative and bonkers posts. It's been class.

    You should drop them an email with a link to the thread to let them know!

    Agree and yes I probably wouldn't have had time to see it but for Covid19 but I think it was a great thread but it was educational and fun.

    Football club crest even?

    I'd definitely be up for that. Would even run it but would take a while to organise. So many countries, so many divisions.

    Could be done if you exclude Irish and British club crests. That would eliminate most of the nonsense. Perhaps you could include UK non-league ones, that would be fairly uncontroversial, I reckon. I vote for this lot, although it's mainly because of their name tbh.

    I always like the crest of East Thurrock United:

    Could do one on US State flags and its territories, maybe even include Canadian Provinces in it also?
    Or Irish towns and counties.

    Or historical flags like the Gold Harp on the Dark Blue background.

    Actually I received a PM last week which I totally forgot about saying that I wasn't allowed to put tournament threads in AH anymore. So it's now been moved to the ''Other Forum Games'' section. Probably won't be busy though and if it doesn't take off I'll just leave it.

    Boards beaureauracy at its finest by the sound of things!

    The amount of people who may potentially see, partake and enjoy something will be secondary to ensuring that everything is perfectly slotted away, probably to die, in the relative obscurity of a sub-forum...

    The last tournament was great, thoroughly enjoyed by a lot of people and it's the contributors who made it what it was. And AH, for better or worse, gives things a different feel than you'd find in another part of the forum. Boards at its best IMO. A bit of common sense should be used.

    I can feel your withering stare here already even before I post this but there is a thread in help desk on the move. There is also an explanation as to why.

    Yes I realise the irony here of pointing out something is in another forum.

    Very similar to the interesting maps thing that moved, closed reopened.


    Why can't we have nice things?

    Mod note: Seeing as the tournament is over and there's a Help Desk thread open to discuss the future destinations of threads on this subject, I'll close this thread now.
    Thanks to all for your participation in the thread.
