Just mind - in the official results and on the site, we always use Commonwealth Games standard so home countries flags will be used. I assume you are from England, or should I change your flag to something else?

:Cheers for clearing that up for me :) Essentially, I was born in England, my parents were born in England, ergo I am English. :p That said normally I prefer to state my nationality as British because I find "English" too narrow a definition in my case. I'm more inclined to compete "for" Scotland as it were, as it's where my paternal grandfather is from, and where my sporting loyalties generally lie, but I think to avoid confusion and politics, I'll keep the English flag in place ;)

Nationalities

Sorry to bother you; just a quick question on nationality etiquette - I'm doing the car for Vod:Bul right now - am I allowed to use a British flag there against driver's names or should I use a home countries flag? Sorry if this is answered clearly on the forum somewhere, but I couldn't find it easily. Cheers! --Doug hilliard 06:07, 4 February 2013 (EST)
