heres a thought, let me know what everyone thinks...since we did some research about the lotus i think we could incorporate a lot of that into the flag, instead of it being the smallest picture on the flag it could be a bigger portion of it...not only does it have to do with the culture of cambodia and whatnot it could symbolism feminism. thoughts!?

I don't see why we can't just give them our name and our banner.
We did so much research into it and it IS amazing. To ensure our immunity we should give put all our research into their banner.
Because we need to put all their pics into the banner, I suggest we make the lotus with eight petals and put their pics around the lotus flower.
In the center, we should write in their alphabet, the symbol for woman.
I can't make banners at all but this is just my suggestion.

Von seems to have taken the most initiative so far in this, so I vote him as leader. I don't know what anyone else thinks, but I think it would be our best bet. I know for a fact that Von is a very smart, creative guy, and he would be the perfect one to lead us in this challenge. What do y'all think?

Hey. Um. No on the leader thing. BUT THANKS ANYWAY KYLE. I can't make a banner. lol. I suggest a person WHO CAN make the banner. I'm not technical enough on computers to do so. When there's a story writing challenge, count me in.

Ummmm Maybe we should start working on our tribemates flag? We wanna make it look good if we wanna win so I decided to use my computer painting skills and make a sample. We'll just add on when you see it or you can copy and paste or sumthin. But maybe we should get the girls pictures and put them around the flag. And the tribe name can be 8 queens in Khmur or sumthin. Heres the Sample Flag...

okay the problem with me is that i have to be at the doctors at 12pm tomorrow for a few hours and then i will probably be getting blood tests and an MRI after... soooo i'm not really comfortable taking the leadership position if i'm not going to be here tomorrow.
i'm going to nominate kenyon based on his banner abilities and all lol. i really hope you are available tomorrow and accept the position.
i'll work as much as i can tonight on the banner, and probably write something for the explanation and see what you guys think.

Yeah I second that. Kenyons liked by everyone and does take the role as a good leader.

Ok Havnt read the whole conversation but...
Von or Kenyon for leader. Maybe Kenyon can be the Designer of the flag and Von can be the leader.
Cause Kenyon said he can make the flag and banners and stuff and Von said if its a story challenge, he can do it and we need someone to give details about our opponents flag.

I agree with dan about sticking with what we've already done. lotus=flower=symbolic of women anyway lol
and plus it's still a really good idea about yak loum and everything else

I definitely like the idea of incorporating the two ideas of the lotus and Yak Loum...with the combined name suggested earlier of Phkaloum (loose translation of Lotus Lake).
The lake has a very feminine representation and we can incorporate our research...saying we respect the fact that they are a well-rounded team, etc. (relaying facts from Yak Loum). Also, the lotus and flowers in general would lead you to think of our female opponents.
Wrap this all together with a banner of the ladies like we have...and I think it would be nice. Smooth out some edges and I don't think we will be beat on this one!!!
