People who can't see this thing is basically dominated by pony stuff are blind
I didn't know they were still going strong
There was a lapse, but I think people realized ponies are in their hearts forever now and there is no escape
A big English speaking population, it's small enough that people have a sense of national pride but still large enough to have plenty of users, and most importantly a 3 color flag that's easy to draw with no outside coordination.
Shots been fired.
Btw, if this is an original comment this has to be one of the funnier if not the funniest comment I saw in Lemmy so far. Well done sir/lady!
I want to remind you of this flow chart visualizing how the Germans worked on place 2022 (sorry for potato quality). Does that answer your question?
I love that he was labeled "SHONK" for most of it. Also kudos to the person/group that went around incorrectly labeling things.
it was actually a sign from someone with the username "scew" that was there before the blahaj got started. for a while the people from blahaj couldn't decide between changing it or removing it, so it went through a lot of iterations, but it seems they deleted it entirely in the end.
a shame tbh, that they picked a spot someone else had already worked in, and couldn't handle it being in the middle of their stuff.
I saw ur call out for people to assist, the bottom right and right of that border was me and one or two others and they were awesome.
Thought it wouldn’t last the journey but it’s still the first thing I see when I look at that board. Good idea!
Hey! I helped with the left and top border until it was complete. Definitely super clean
I didn't see the other one when I started the one up by the nine inch nails logo.
But hey, now we have two of them!
I appreciate that the southern one got a Boards of Canada turquoise hexagon next door. Had to toss on Autechre to complete the triumvirate.
I just love that Boards of Canada logo is squeezed in between the Ontario flag and the Aphex logo. (I was helping to finish the Ontario flag and the c/Ontario text banner).

Bottom left. Look for the big Canadian flag. The other Aphex Twin logo is near the big Nine inch nails logo.
Those Brits have a pretty big flag in the bottom left... i know it's supposed to be the Aussie flag
I dunno, but I spent my morning drinking coffe and putting my name in an empty space and it’s still there. So I feel like that’s a win.
As far as they don't destroy anything, its okay. I already feel this canvas was more inclusive of smaller arts and just continued around them ( instead of overriding them )
They destroyed multiple pieces. wrt myself, they cut off all but the chest and head of Myne from Ascendance of a Bookworm, and there was an Alolan Rapidash they tried to take too. They attempted to destroy the pride banner as well, as late as 4:30PM EST yesterday.
Sorry to hear that. Since this was the first event and the moderators itself said technical issues prevented from reading and taking action in a lot of spam reports, i hope the next time would be lot better.
Ya, there definitely is some work to be done. There was one of those confederate snakes on the board for a while too - the "don't treat on me" one that modern domestic terrorist groups enjoy. It ended up getting taken down by the community, drawn over and erased underneath the pride-coloured paint roller in the top corner :)
I hope to see the next canvas be better and more active ^^
The blue shark one stands out most to me. I'm not sure if that's a specific community, or the entire instance tho.
to be honest im just pleasantly surprised that a rag tag group of us osu peeps left over from r/place managed to build a few big things
Ya, that flag was insanely big. I would have rather worked on some Australian cultural icons like Bluey, Steve Irwin and Valtteri Bottas.
There were a few Kiwis that tried to give them a hand at the end after we had 3 kiwis and our flag done.
For some reason I was thinking 'Voit' was 'Vought' from The Boyz, so I guess I'm wrong on all accounts.
So… how do I find out what communities are on this canvas cause some of them look like ones I’d want to check out
I thought that at first but then realized I think it’s because the communities respected each other. It’s kind of endearing that way, like we all belong here and there’s enough space for all of us.
That's a great way of putting it.
Although, when you have millions of people in a platform it's hard to prevent playful "wars" and "games" between people which works like chain-reaction and everybody starts doing anything or streamers like XQC realizing they can make content out of this and putting their own "minions" aka viewers to make chaos.
Sometimes, some things are just not in your control.
I felt that way the whole time.... until I saw the Stardew Valley banner. 2 people altered the name by placing 2 pixels each: GrantFive@lemmy.world, and namipa@lemmy.world. I don't know why they would do that, but they did! It's a bit disappointing honestly.
Nine Inch Nails was the first thing I saw
typed this while wearing my pretty hate machine shirt
I think us Kiwis did well to get three kiwis completed (and I did my ULR and QR as well) and then our flag finished
