He's saying it's just pixels tk those that sent him death threats over the course of 4 days that was totalling more than what he had ever before combined. Imagine getting more death threats in 4 days, compared to almost your whole streaming career. Saying it's just pixels feel justified. And people keep forgetting that XQc had so many art thag he defends, helps and creates. He just follows the rules of r/place, if it's good it stays, and if it's not its getting replaced. He made the Halo Energy Blade, Widowmaker's ass, Heathledger Joker mural, and Kobe mural, there are some others too. The fight he had with the Osu community was started by the Osu representative that told XQC's community live on stream that his community was weak, of course he's going to attack. There's also instances where he defended the Quebec flag, and made sure that evryone knows its under his protection. There's a bunch of other stuff that people keep glossing over. Sincerely a Mizkif viewer, the negotiator of r/place.

Honestly Ross, you probably picked one of the best spots you could’ve. Being right underneath Rainbow Dash meant that a lot of the attacks on that area got drawn away from you guys. I was a part of the brony faction and I can tell you that we were getting attacked constantly. The RD art sort of acted like a lightning rod redirecting attacks towards it. Plus the fact that RD was ABOVE your art meant that if the void wanted to get to newgrounds they would’ve had to destroy RD first (which wasn’t gonna happen). You may not have been an official ally of the brony faction, but I believe we were still standing strong and keeping your art safe from attacks. Thanks for contributing to r/place in a positive way, and thank you for not attacking other factions and art like what a lot of other streamers were doing.

What happened with France is that team Spain started targeting with griefing their corner saying that they owned too big a spot and we're clearly using bot. Meanwhile, France was legit pulling on their community (ngl was pretty impressive seeing how they managed the pixel placement) and defending their corner best they could. At one point, team America joined team Spain and they kept up the fight the whole duration of r/places. So when the Blankening happened, the Americans and Spanish focused on them to erase the flag as fast as possible. In response to that, team France wrote FR on the higher portion of the grid, as a final Hooray. A brief summary of the France flag battle of 2022 😅

the way communities can collaborate on here is amazing! I was helping r/scrapmechanic draw the bearing from the game, but when i started helping, they had already relocated it 5 times because other people kept drawing over it. The 6th time, r/tenseislime had claimed the spot at the same time as ours again, but we were getting sick of relocating, so we negotiated a collaboration. instead of just relocating again, we drew Rimuru (the main character from the anime) sitting on top of the bearing. I was even in charge of "adapting" Rimuru to look like he is sitting on the bearing properly. two communities, one for a physics based sandbox game, one for an anime about reincarnating as a slime, both coming together to make a single piece of art. (if you want to see what im talking about, its right above the pink floyd banner)

Apparently the Canadian flag pixel art being a shitshow is something of a running joke now, because I heard the same thing happened with the last r/place event. Somehow, *_that_* and the "Eiffel Tower" shown in this video are two of the funniest things I've ever seen.

"We had a level of organization that nobody else had" There were a number of other communities using this same style of overlay system with similar levels of coordination. Hyperbole for video I know but still funny.

@ami6785 2 жыл бұрын

Not exactly, they didn’t use an overlay. As it said in the video, viewers went to a URL which would give each of them a colour, coordinates and a link to where it would be placed. The closest to this I have seen is from the Osu community that used an overlay system and told people where to place what where when they were getting invaded (because people for some reason think something that isn’t super popular doesn’t belong…)

I was apart of the Hollow Knight r/place community, and it was so much fun as we also collabed with a bunch of other indie games as well as the Elden Ring community. The way it happened was so interesting too as in our discord we had a bunch of channels that were for diplomatic discussions with other groups. It honestly felt like an actual arms race and war. Over all it was such a fun event
