How many can look at the AnswerPool logo and confidendtly identify all of the flags from memory?

I'm not a very good world citizen as I think I can ID only 10 of the 14.
I don't recognize the W or M from memory.
I'm not 100% sure of the first O.
There isn't much to see with the "."

I will be the first to admit that I can't. I would like to change (add) one or two, but I think the person who made it is no longer active.

I made a guess for what the W is and turned out to be right - guess was based on a recollection that we had a member from this country. I don't know if that was just a coincidence or not.

The "m" looks like Chile's flag but then again it is off a bit.

I had some trouble with the last "o" but finally figured it out.

I managed to work out what the "." is but Peteeo is right that it is nearly impossible to even see it. I had to laugh when I figured it out because it's the flag I probably see as much as the US flag - this may not be the case everywhere in the US but mid June each year, we have what I refer to as "Horn honking day" and people of this nationality drive around with this flag displayed on their cars honking their horns.

Seems appropriate that the letter for Canada looks like a doughnut.

CBC

I remember when we had a discussion of this when it was newer and we discovered that the 'm' was the Republic of Texas flag. Was the creator KK?

'O' looks like Italy.

It is the Republic of Texas... that's just plain lame. Smile

The first O is Mexico, the second O is canada and the last O is South Africa.

Yes Peteeo, I call Puerto Rican Day "Horn Honking Day". It's definitely something to hear and see. It was really great when Horn Honking Day coincided with the Chicago Bulls winning the Championship. That was really insane.

The Puerto Rican flag was the only flag I could find that had red and blue side by side as is shown in the dot.

Ami, I think you're right.



I don't know why I can't get an image of the flag to show up here.

I don't think so, janus, there's white underneath the red.
