That’s a lot of ponies…
People who can’t see this thing is basically dominated by pony stuff are blind
I didn’t know they were still going strong
The herd grows every day…
I really thought they were losing steam
There was a lapse, but I think people realized ponies are in their hearts forever now and there is no escape
It started off all ponies so, win?
Yeah pawniz rulez amogi this time
Yeah I was surprised. Maybe I shouldn’t have been.
And they’re all so pretty and cool.
Lemmy.Blahaj.zone
But I’m just glad I can’t find any hate symbols.
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.
Some people…tried. Fortunately, their attempts got overwritten.
But that’s a whole instance, not a community
Is that a community named after the instance?
Isn’t Die Urbane the party of Victor Orban?
How do the Germans always win
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.
Plus, they just love expanding east and west.
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!
Nein nein nein
Efficiency … German Efficiency!
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?
It’s that german engineering everyone talks about
placeDE didn’t participate
Always? hmm
At least 7 alt accounts decapitated the pony.
That Nine Inch Nails logo is C.L.E.A.N.
Well done.
Thanks! I had a lot of help and the template tool was crucial.
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 just like that there were two separate Aphex Twin logos there.
Are they twins?
You win one internet.
Actually, no, you win two internets, but they are identical.
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!
Thanks for letting us color it in!
It was an improvement!
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).
Where are these?
https://canvas.toast.ooo/#x=71&y=744&scale=20&
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~
We never finish anything…
I think you guys were a bit too ambitious with the size…
I, a Brit, helped. No regrets.
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.
Germany flag accross like reddit 🙄
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 ^^
It looked like 6-7 all accounts at least. I reported, not sure if it worked.
Some things never change
It’s like a digital towel
The blue shark one stands out most to me. I’m not sure if that’s a specific community, or the entire instance tho.
That’s the lemmy.blahaj.zone instance logo
the brony community
Yeah, they got organized very early and very fast.
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
After seeing place for years, I still have no idea what OSU is
Ohio State Universityosu! is a rhythm game where you click circles and is played by weebs such as myselfYou click the circles to the beat
Aussie.zone were super ambitious, but didn’t have the muscles to pull through.
Ya, that flag was insanely big. I would have rather worked on some Australian cultural icons like Bluey, Steve Irwin and Valtteri Bottas.
Oh damn, I didn’t even know how to contribute and represent! Next time I guess.
There were a few Kiwis that tried to give them a hand at the end after we had 3 kiwis and our flag done.
It’s always the Germans.
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
Same, if someone figures this out, can they post here or let me know?
!MineClone2@Lemmy.world is there.
Comparing it to last year, that seems to be a lot of white space. Damn.
There was a last year ?
as far as I’m aware, this is the first r/place-like event for Lemmy
exapsy might be talking about Reddit’s r/place from last year tho
Oh yeah. Wait we had a Lemmy place here?? Bruh, I didn’t even know about it sorry.
you got 30 more minutes to place a pixel, lol
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.
Either the bronies, germans or lemmy.blahaj.zone
