Nation Flag

[Provolution]

The rule should be, we nominate flag amendments for the elections of Term Two, Term Three, Term Four, Term Five and Term Six, which makes room for five amendments.

 

[Double Stack]

To think of it, our nation flag should progress kinda like in the game where the people love us so much that they want to improve our palace. We should have the flag progress as if it was our palace.

 

[Provolution]

We should still link it to term elections, so we can reduce the bureaucracy.

 

[RegentMan]

Plus, ten or fifteen flag amendments is not what I want to go through!

 

[Gregski]

I like Rik's flag with the navigational symbol and the rose and without the Union Jack bit (this one). Very tidy and nice looking. With this flag, we may be able to add two more icons into the remaining corners of the flag in the future if we feel like it (e.g. ships, wonders, etc).

Why not the kitchen sink?

I like simple flags. I don't want a flag with every bell and whistle that strikes anyone's fancy stuck here, there and everywhere. I'm waiting for someone to suggest that the flagstaff top be a music box playing "Rule Britannia".

 

[Provolution]

As Culture Consul I urge all citizens to back the fine flag of Rik Meleet, the Flag of England with the English Rose and the Compass Rose showing our Civ features, and leave out the Union Jack in respect of the poor Irish. We can always add in Union Jack if we conquer the Celts.

 

[Ashburnham]

Well, not to be a know-it-all, but the Union Jack came from the union between England and Scotland, not Ireland. I see no problem with including it in our flag, since the Scots aren't represented in Civ3. Personally, I like the flag with the UJ in one corner and the rose in the other.

Ashburnham

I support that flag too, we should soon poll these.

 

[DaveShack]

I like the one with the compass and rose. We should leave off the Union Jack and use one of the corners to add slashes in the in-game colors of the former civs of our colony provinces. One other small request, would it be possible to have the 6 stripes representing DG6 be in England's in-game color, which is orange this game?

 

[Provolution]

I think we should try the flag of England, and we add the Compass Rose and the Trade Rose in the upper left, and nothing else for Term One

Then I suggest we add something from Term One, then Term Two, then Term Three, then Term IV, then Term V and then Term VI and vote for every new addition during election time.

So you want to change the color of the 6 lines to the color we are in the game and in the top left corner the compass and in the bottom right corner the rose ?

that is no problem, I can do that tonight easily.

Curious, but I wasn't implying that we have to turn the flag into a Christmas tree. I was more referring to the concept of remembering our greatest historical moment in the game by adding a symbol to the flag. I do not want to add a logo every week.

 

[Provolution]

One addition per term would make perfect sense.

here it is (10 minutes work )

 

[YNCS]

One addition per term would make perfect sense.

No additions per term would make even more sense.

You don't want a national flag, you want a national quilt.

 

[Provolution]

Not a quilt, possibly a new navigational star for each new province. It would just add to the flavor of our elections to vote on a revised flag.

 

[RegentMan]

A star for every city/province would be nice. Kind of like the US flag.

 

[Provolution]

Maybe a navigational star a city and a stripe a province could make it.

 

[MSTK]

Okay, I was playing around with Rik's flag and I made a chrome-like flag based on his:

IMO it looks better w/out the icons if it's chrome-i-tized.

Here is an animated transition between flat and metallic flag.
