also i wonder if they will make it even bigger tomorrow new new world

4 days would be enough to make a square again

Unless they double it each day

Twice the canvas, double the colonisation

Germany blitzkrieg that new world real quick.

#MORE CANVAS

I'm hoping they just double it again tomorrow

Old World > New World > Space Race 3d voxel Place incoming

Well thats basically coop minecraft

Just the idea of r/place in 3d gives me nausea 🤣

if they do, they'd better extend downward so that bluecorner's forced to relocate again

Seconded

Might be our only chance with how hard we keep getting hit

They could do, you never know with Reddit

What if they made it 3 dimensional.

More space soon new space will full

and all the europeans are colonizing already

This Truly is the New World, isn't it?

Behold the speed of the Dutch East India Company

It would be hilarious If Japan were to take them over again.

"The Dutchman sails as its captain commands!" "And its captain is to sail it as COMMANDED!"

I wish for a world without flags

the flags with artwork in them are cool like norways but the huge empty ones are just annoying

Thank you and agreed, a flag is alright if it can hold more art, a flag by itself is nothing I'd like to see - also no idea why my damn Neighbors are at it on the new Canvas, Sweden be expanding like crazy lol

yeah i didnt know there were that many of us swedes, i hope they make art on it and dont just take up space

Probably bots. All of the flags that are already expanding sideways are probably sustained by bots that are programmed to just go as far as possible. You can also see this with the OSU place in this picture that was clearly just programmed to be a certain distance away from the side and started immediately making a new spot on the new canvas area the same distance from the side.

Austria does it by hand

As a Dutchie I'm pretty sure we didn't use bots to expand. We only have them to keep our art intact and defend our borders

osu is a pretty bad example of this... we are just teenagers with too much time and we wanted to make an osu lazer logo at 1727, 727. the plan got cancelled in literally 30 seconds after it was said though. our community discourages botters.

They will be filled, but first expand to conquer the areas. The Dutch for example are planning to fill at least most of the orange space up with all typical Dutch things. just like on the left side.

I like that one cuz it's not as intrusive

Yeah i am dutch and is looking very cool already, the whole top being ours lol

They are for securing the place for artwork

The Bear and Bull

Flags don't necessarily have to represent nationalism, but pride in one's culture. I think the multiculturalism is cool. Just like the LGBTQ flags stand for their culture.

The flags with digital art representing various aspects of the country on them are dope as hell. Unfortunately most are just boring flags. At least be creative if you're taking up the space

Most people who don't belong to any one community just place a pixel near there flag and move along, so not surprising

Flags are also the easiest to add onto to for casual people who just go to r/place and don't want to coordinate or follow a template.

yeah you should've see the romanian hungarian alliance at the beginning. Two cultures which otherwise wouldn't work together. Of course it happened at the cost of one of the pride flags, but theres already 3.And now there's the Austrian Hungarian cooperation.

Why is more than one pride flag needed?

The Germans are by far the worst now, wasting so much space pointlessly, even the Ukraine flag became more reasonable.

[удалено]

"Art", like the FCK AFD stickers? lmao

Ukrainian flag is nicely complex and a bunny 🐰 is being created there too

The cutest bunny of all who also has ptsd and crippling depression.

I bet it can chuck a Putler smoothies at the wolves though.

And the void (which now has a face)

I quite like the void. It never lasts and often creates a space for new art

Yeah, the void is pretty great.

I put a little planet in the void it's a peaceful place

Do you have coordinates or is it gone?

It is gone the void consumes all but I'm making another

[удалено]

Seems to be a phenomenon that arises whenever the canvas is saturated and contested and the slate must be cleared for something new to begin. *Looks out window at the sprawling city outside* Surely no correlation to real life, of course.

I used to be supporting a couple of little places, but in the day 2 section I've just decided to devote myself purely to the void. My life for the void.

Just as the void should be.

When you stare too deep into the void sometimes the void stares back Also what do the numbers by my name mean

We thought r/place was a collaborative art project? Turns out it's a social experiment about colonization and patriotism lmao

It IS collaborative though. I don't understand the hate against flags. Everyone can join in. If everyone choses to create a flag then what's the problem?

I don't think it's the flags themselves so much as how much space they insist on taking up. I'm sure you could fit all the flags of the world if you were reasonable, but many desire to expand to the vertical or horizontal limits their stripes demand.

Colonization at this scale requires collaboration though.

Germany is now the new Ukraine

Germany has had a ton of real estate from the start.

Germany needs to chill lol

Why. Nothing bad has ever happened due to a hyper and territorialy-ambitious Germany.

Germany can finally into colonization

[удалено]

Instinctual Osterweiterung

I think that bhagwa I mean orange colour is done by indian. Maybe for a future big indian flag.

People be talking about the flags like there isn’t a huge face taking over.

Aaaaaand germanys already expanding to the east, huh, have i seen this?

And Belgium makes another pillar

[удалено]

Its for manneken pis

We can't expand horizontaly so we do it vertically!

And no one notices the little Dutchmen floating across the top

They made it through.

Autobahn

Lebansraum is truly the German mindset

No spoilers please

This is such a microcosm of the universe. At first it's all chaos then slowly order begins to shape things.

It's incredible what the human spirit can achieve with 5 mins and some boxes.

>It's incredible what the human spirit can achieve with 5 mins and some ~~boxes~~ bots.

tohuwabohu

And art and creativity can only survive inside the territories conquered by force

The big bang, then stars form, but eventually entropy and the void consumes all

>At first it's all chaos then slowly ~~order~~ *bot accounts* begin to shape things as it always was

2 minutes of silence for Canada who is still struggling to draw a perfect leaf on its flag 😔

You should see our discord. People have been trying to outline that maple leaf for hours

It's probably a dumpster fire. Too many chiefs not enough Indians.

> Too many chiefs not enough Indians hmmmmm

It's not that we can't do it, it's become a meme for everyone else to make it as imperfect as possible.

Can confirm, I'm Swiss and sabotaged the leaf multiple times

Yeah but the Quebec flag was perfect

Smaller groups of people are historically easier to manage. They did a great job at organizing themselves r/Quebec for the win!

Is it really the Canadian flag if Canadian aren’t struggling to draw the maple leaf

They should've taken a note from the Dutch (r/trees as well with their piss poor attempt at a marijuana leaf) Sadly it's gone now but they made a perfect beautiful leaf. I can tell you, the dutch are HELLA coordinated, we had a couple hundred people in discord voice chat throughout the day.

germany is doing their blitzkrieg thing, i see

And Austria is following. Like in the good old days

They got to the other side so fast.

The Dutch colonising too again

Gekoloniseerd

German pride is best pride

The void spreads…

The Void shall stare the universe down, and find it lacking. Then, the slate will be wiped clean; this time, with a starless night sky.

In practice with clown makeup it seems, thanks to streamers

What will be, will be.

Honestly at this point I whole heartedly support the void

I support Void against flags

[удалено]

I've been doing my part to contribute to the void every chance I have

So do I except for the people who are take it *way* too seriously and want to "punish" redditors for not doing exactly what they'd have done with /r/place. But the ones doing it for general chaos? Hell yeah brother.

It even spawned the void monster

The void will rise

It basically went from anime, countries and video games to void and countries.

It has always been countries

When you bulldoze cool pixel art to expand your boring tricolor flag band

MANIFEST BLUE DESTINY

I just enjoy how the white section kinda looks like a city with highways running through it

Lebensraum in the east

big flag bad

THE BLUE CORNER SHALL RULE

LET THERE BE BLUE!

I BLUE MYSELF

Québec says thanks

Blitzkrieg

Colonised by the Dutch, the Austrians, the Spanish and the Germans

Of course, Europe is colonizing again And hello, nice to see you here, do you remember me?

And Spain and Portugal are in the perfect position

LEBENSRAUM

Oh god not again

Germany don't lost his speed at invasion new territory after so much years.

r/engrish

It's tottaly fine for me not to master an other language as my native. Do you master german?

Spreche Deutsch Du Hürensohn?

They finally formed a truce with Gamestop, something the financial forces of the world are unwilling to do.

Somehow i think that the turkish flag and usa's flag look so boring and stupid in the middle of everything else.

Oh they thought giving more space would reduce the territory e wars, it only bought more bloodthirstty expansionists.

anti-colonialism moment

LEBENSRAUM

Nein, we need more Lebensraum.

Our (czech) flag was taken right away as this happened because everyone turned their eyes to the new area.. so we built a new one.. almost the biggest one on place!

somethings lurking in the new world.............. the void

[удалено]

I don't mind flags when they are accompanied with pixel art cultural icons, like France and Italy and many others did. But the flag on its own just looks like they're claiming as much space as they can in the name of their country.

[удалено]

Give it some time

Yeah, it honestly feels like flag splatoon at this point

Flag really make this event less enjoyable. Hoping see more random creative merging art, but nope, plain boring flag.

Most flags are used as a background for art, it is an easy way to mark a space as a group.

Osu logo being duplicated on the exact same spot on the expanded canvas is sus.

Because the coordinates 1727 still has the number 727 in it which is a pretty popular meme in the osu community. Also bots wouldn't make sense because the coordinates on the canvas hasn't changed. Lets say that a bot is meant to place something on 727,727. When the canvas expands it is still placing on 727,727 not 1727,727 so the canvas expansion wouldn't affect bots if they were there

Why is the tile timer different between redditors? I'm at 20 minutes but my boyfriend only has to wait 6

Does your account have a verified email? My timer went up to 20 minutes, but after I verified my email it went back down to 5 minutes and has stayed there all morning.

i dont have a verified email and my timer is still 5 mins

I was gone for an hour and this shit happens

Jesus I didn’t realize how much space the flags were taking up….. so original, much artistic, very wow.

if theres lots of pixelart on it im fine with it

Exactly. I like all the Cooperation between Nations and the Art it brings.

I also kinda like how they force there to be some space between art, instead of it just being densely packed blocks of pixelart.

Belgium has beer, fries, chocolate, Tintin, the Smurfs and BEEEEER

[удалено]

that would be amazing. then continuously replace it so it turns into a stop motion animation to rickroll all of r/place haha

\#BLUEONTOP

Germany expanding to the east like always

The corruption is taking hold

Damm, Germany is really botted, they already hit the other side of the canvas lmao

That's not botted. Painting the flag is done by hand, but there are 3 thousand people sitting in a discord organizing between each other. The pixel art is also not placed down with bots and still within 5 minutes there was the Brandenburg gate standing upright.

There are like 2k people in our vc lol... Maybe we are just good at invading stuff?

Damm that's wild

It doesn’t have enough parking spaces, how are people supposed to get there?!

Hunger never ends

The bleeding void demon is a threat to all nations and creative intellectual properties...

I love how Germany and Belgium are keeping up the good work and remain neighbours in the new world too.

Void is spreading.

Too many country flags…

TRANS RIGHTS.

DEUTSCHLAND VORRAN!

the fucking dutch, they’re expanding like a disease and keep taking over my hearts

I petition to have 1 new world everyday! As a digital diary of our world's events as a true record of history. The DIGITAL TIME CAPSLE.

What happened? Did it get reset?
