Flag Rules

[AgentWiZard]

Good day, I am an avid fan of this Filipino board game. Though i seldom play the online game, we use to play the actual board game. It happened recently when we held a small tournament with my friends. This is the scenario.

The Blue Flag reaches the base but with opposite piece beside it.
Then on the next turn, the Red Flag reaches the opposite base without any piece beside.
Who is the winner?

Since its a prized mini tournament, I as the arbiter was to put a decision.

I said that the winner is the Blue Flag because it reaches the base first, and base on what I know to the rules, if the piece beside didn't challenge the flag on the next turn, that flag wins.

Some other spectator argued for a draw.

Please help me about these. I only learned this game August 2015, and immediately we bought a board game. I'm 24 years old and we really like this game, playing with my friends(even ladies) ,neighbors,relatives and even introduce the game to as young as 7.

Thank you

In that case, SalpakanNa server will decide that since Blue Flag has reached the base first unchallenged then Blue Flag wins.
