I hope the pixels I placed near the bottom in the Belgian flag will help keep your feet warm!

That event is always so much fun. I’ll be honest though, worse part about it for me are all the flags. So uninspired in my opinion.

Just the flags, yes. But, some of the national icons that got done inside the flags was really impressive. Thinking of Italy, in particular.

Finland sneaked a cool ass Kekkonen in there in lieu of a flag

Especially when they try taking over the entire board instead of just keeping to themselves.

France and ukraine were close to 1/8 of the entire board at one point, it was insane.

Keep your 20000 pixels or whatever, stop going for 2000000

I think the bots got a bit out of hand on the last one, and if I were to guess, I think it'll be much worse the next time it rolls around.

Yeah I had a lot of fun defending Steve Irwin and the Vegemite/VB/Bunnings logos. Would have been boring if it were just an Aussie flag.

I thought maybe it was all hand stitched and you were completely insane.

WiseWaste1 OP t1_jdhoa6g wrote

Well…. I went to Ukraine on February 28th in 2022 to get my sister in law out and found out when I was in Dobropillja that my now ex wife had me go on my merry way without telling me that her sister was already on her way out of Ukraine…. Now I kinda just travel aimlessly and depressed since then to places that like no one goes to (idiotic now in the sense of going places cause I’m lonely and then not anywhere I could possibly meet anyone)

You could always visit Denmark. I'd give a cup of coffee.

There are some things that make me feel proud of the Internet. Not often, but sometimes. And r/place is definitely one(uh, two?) of them.

Bravo to everyone who participated in the event(maybe not raiders), it was a grand show of teamwork. Actually, maybe even thank you to the raiders, as the destruction only served as a vehicle for rebirth.

And of course, the most prominent thing from this perspective is the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise.

What I don’t get is how a final clean product emerges instead of random black dots and other fuckery to ruin other people coordinated efforts.

The mods over at the main Irish sub reddit are fools for the most part but I'm glad to see a Irish flag.

Go on da lads, not you mods.. you go back to that high horse you sit on.

The first Place was great. The second one became cancerous with fanbases of youtubers and influencers flooding it and disrupting everywhere, and that one small time Twitch streamer who got his chat to spam his logo.

Just a wild guess, but the only times I've seen people complain about it was to do with censorship. Specifically, censorship of alt-right (Nazi) imagery.
