Today I saw in the websnoop that i can see the flag of my country (Peru), but there is a small detail, the flag looks very ugly without the shield, can you put the shield on the flag? pls , something like this :P
...or is it at all possible to request addition of some countries' flags? :D

Are you sure your official flag looks like that? According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peru , it doesn't.

I added flags for the most popular countries according to WormNET statistics (http://stats.worms2d.info/countries.txt). Quote from the next Beta's ReadMe:
Flags have been added for Algeria, Belarus, Bulgaria, Egypt, El Salvador, Guatemala, Jamaica, Kazakhstan, South Korea, Lithuania, Macedonia, Marshall Islands, Peru, Saudi Arabia, Taiwan and United Arab Emirates.
Would it be too much to ask to add some more flags (Philippines), even if I am, possibly, the only one playing on WN? D:
Thanks for the quick response.

We'll try to add as many flags as we can in 4.0 to make everyone happy...

Speaking of flags, I wonder how many flags are added in total since the first beta. (15?)
(A not-so-on-topic story:
A few WormNET player asked me about why my flag is a question mark, and I explained. They told me to make one for my team. I knew there's a Taiwan flag in Web Snooper that I can get it. What I didn't know is that the flag will be available in the next beta!)

Well, I think wikipedia is wrong, because the flag of Peru is complete with the national coat of arms: P.
In my country all the people use the flag with the coat of arms, so I think wikipedia is wrong :P

I did a little research on the issue.
It looks like putting the coat of arms on the flag is a common mistake (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_talk:Flag_of_Peru.svg). The flag with the coat of arms is used by state institutions and ceremonies, but the national (civil) flag doesn't have an emblem:
