and what a bloody awful symbol it is too

it was only unveiled yesterday but within hours an online petition was started calling for it to be scrapped and in just over 24 hrs already has nearly 23,000 signatures.
Based on this I can't wait to see what the games mascot is going to look like
;D

It looks like a puzzle preschoolers put together.
So I guess the mascot will be an Elmer's glue bottle.

Why can't the English ever get anything right?

Awesome.

People get paid to do this. More than you do.

Did they just steal that font from Purple Rain?

I've seen all sorts of ideas about this, from looking like a window that has had a football kicked through it .. to it looking like someone crouching down for a dump .. lol
