Given that most of the art comes from obscure and/or Japanese-only games, I'd doubt much of the forum would be familiar with them. :? _________________

The lesson here is to never let people know that you know what the NPC avatars are from, that way SARS doesn't feel like he has to do more work.
I like them, i think you should keep them. |

Show some love for the artist guild, yo! they work for minimum wage.
It reminds me of something that happened with the INF flag some time ago, it was from some american football team xD _________________ DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! |

What? Our flag was never from some football team. I remember you submitted a flag idea that was based off of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, but I promptly rejected it for that reason. |

I was being subtle in order to avoid saying anything relevant regarding our nation... geesh.
Now you have blew it! The mistery is gone.
But oh well, I didn't express myself correctly so I won't tell you know who about this. _________________ DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! |

Funny, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers flag looks almost exactly the same as the Cleveland Cavaliers flag. Observe!
Tampa Bay Buccaneers Logo
Cleveland Cavaliers Secondary Logo
Wow, and here I was thinking that it was just a Kanakan conspiracy... Perhaps the Cleveland Cavaliers took it from the Bucs! It's hard to say, but I'm pretty damn sure Tampa Bay had their new logo before the Cavs got theirs... Ah well, it's pretty amusing that we nearly had two nations representing professional sports franchises!
Oh yeah. Since we're on the subject of NPC avatars, I'm a little curious about the Katana avatars. If I didn't know any better, I'd say that they came either from Romance of the Three Kingdoms or perhaps some high-tech version of the game "Nobunaga's Ambition."
Then again, I guess I've already caused enough of a stir, eh? :P Honestly, Ted. The NPC avatars do look kick ass even if they are taken from a game. I wouldn't want you to change them just because of something I or Sophita happened to point out. _________________

Actually, the one I spoke about had a ship in it. But yes, It was the flag of the Bucaneers. _________________ DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! |

I've found only one good suggestion for change.

I think Vex or Uji revealed a while ago that it was indeed from Nobunaga's Ambition.
I know a whole bunch of other sources, but I won't tell. Still, if the NPCs like those games, then by all means they should be allowed to use them as their avatars. :P _________________

Does this mean that if either Tampa Bay or Cleveland start to do really well, the wine is on Kanakan? _________________

If you get really desperate Vex, start using avatars from obscure hentai games. Wait, wait...members like Scarlet Assassin and the rest of Kooluk would probably recognize them immediately...nevermind then...
I particularly like the Katana avatars. The artwork is high quality. I don't care if they're from a video game I've played or might play...they're really damn good. _________________

Oh well, seeing that plenty of people like the avatars as is, I guess I won't change it. Kanakan has a new flag though. |

Oh? You changed it? That's a little sad, I rather liked the old flag. However, the new flag is quite nice, as well. Once again, I have to commend you for coming up with a wonderful flag that doesn't look as horrible as London 2012-- and made for 0 dollars, unlike the ridiculous price tag of aforementioned logo. >.> _________________
