[Sir Rols]

Voting in Groups C and D of the GamesBids FIFA World Cup 2026 Logo Comp is now open above. Voting for Groups A and B can be conducted in the other thread.

Here's the draw for the comp. Yoshi will explain rules, deadlines and all that stuff in the next post.

Good luck everyone.

This is it - the Gamesbids Logo World Cup Finals!

We have our final 12 entries that will battle it out to be champion - and in World Cup style, the vote will take the form of a tournament.

The picture in Rols' post above shows our 12 logos in 4 groups of 3. Each of the 2 polls at the top refers to one of these groups. The groups being voted on in this thread are as follows:

Group C: Spain, Australia, China 2.

Group D: China 3, USA 2, England.

As Rols says, there's another thread for voting in the other groups, A & B.

Here are the rules for voting in this stage:

1) It's one vote per person, per group. You can vote in as many or as few groups as you wish.

2) You have 48 hours to vote - voting in this stage is open until 11am UK time on THURSDAY 7 JULY.

3) The top 2 logos in each of the groups at the close will progress to the next round - the Quarter-Finals.

4) If there is a tie between any 2 logos in any round, I reserve a casting vote. I will not vote in the regular voting time, & if I do need to use a casting vote, I will base it first on suitability for an actual World Cup & then on my own subjective opinion.

5) You can vote for your own logo if you want to.

Our vote scrutiniser - Mr S. Blither - is here to ensure it all goes well. If you have any questions, slide him a brown envelope under the table & he'll see what he can do.

At the end of this round, the Quarter-Finals will be arranged according to Rols' picture. The competition will progress from that point as a simple knockout - culminating on Sunday 10 July, just before the new European champions are crowned.

All that's left to say now is thanks to Rols for being his usual good egg & enabling this to happen, good luck to all our contenders, & may the best logo win. Happy voting!

That England logo is far more fitting for the US than England.

Mah China logo was based off of the Chinese symbol for money/the Yuan, 元, if anyone was curious

[Mr Tickle]

That England logo is far more fitting for the US than England.

Why?

12ish hours left - then we'll be on to the quick-fire knockout rounds

[yoshi]

The group stage is now over - voting is CLOSED. The results of Groups C & D are as follows:

Group C:

Spain: 11 points.

China 2: 2 points.

Australia: 0 points.

Group D:

England: 10 points.

USA 2: 2 points.

China 3: 1 point.

We therefore must say goodbye to Woohoo's Australia entry, and to Woohoo's China entry. This is the end of the road for Australia but China still has one logo left. However, we do need to say goodbye to Woohoo, who's logos have sadly wiped out this time .

The top 2 logos in the groups progress to the next stage - the knockout Quarter-finals (QFs). As specified in the picture in the first post, the matchups are:

QF1 - Winner A v Runner-up C:

USA 1 v China 2.

QF2 - Winner C v Runner-up A:

Spain v New Zealand 1.

QF3 - Winner B v Runner-up D:

v USA 2.

QF4 - Winner D v Runner-up B:

England v

The QFs will begin later tonight, as we need to switch from a morning-to-morning cycle to an evening-to-evening one. In the meantime, commiserations to the eliminated 4, and well done to our last 8

Two minor errors caused by both me & my spellcheck being hopelessly incompetent:

1) I of course meant 'whose' not 'who's'.

2) Altogether more importantly, I failed to paste some of the QF lineup in this one - the full QFs 3 & 4 are:

QF3 - Winner B v Runner-up D:

China 1 v USA 2.

QF4 - Winner D v Runner-up B:

England v New Zealand 2.

All right! U-S-A U-S-A!
