The whole time Canvas has been running the Aussies have been trying to make their big flag in the bottom left corner. They probably bit off more than they can chew, but they were working hard regardless.

Now I come in and find some dicks have gone and changed a bunch of their red to blue for no reason whatsoever?

I’m done with my projects so I thought I’d put my efforts into helping them. Anyone else want to help?

There is stuff all over the flag, leave it there, don’t break what others have done, just do the flag “underneath” or around the other things. I don’t have a template, but you can see where the union jack goes, and the outline of the white stars, so the rest just needs to be blue.

I find you can cover more ground with a checker pattern. Then if there is time we can fill in the white parts of the checker pattern.

      Haha I think we made a lot of progress but yes, there were not enough troops for that mission.

    I think it’s because the Australian flag has British flag in the top left corner. The blue part is Scotland, red vertical and horizontal flag is England. The red diagonal is Northern Ireland.

    Basically, Scotland want independence from the UK, and probably don’t want to be part of that flag, so that is likely why the blue is being placed over the red.

      Well, 45% of those who voted last time wanted independence. Not quite accurate to simply say Scotland wants it.

            That is true. Probably why there is a drop of blood hanging off the union jack. However, when someone is not only overwriting the British flag, but with the blue pixels and shape of the Scottish flag, it cannot be a coincidence.

      But if that were the xase shouldn’t they be removing the blue not adding it?
