It is also the best, most qualitative, channel I know of. So, at least of France, probably of Germany too. People have a dear place in their heart for Arte because it feeds us culture and intelligence.

Weirdly enough it is the German TV channel with the best online and KZfaq presence. That's weird because it was considered to be more of a channel for older people or people interested in Art and Culture. Not a Channel that was very appealing for younger people. But I must admit that I really live their KZfaq videos

My favorite was the german flag making a memory with belgium for WWI

@@johannanortmann9964 DW is bigger, but it is hard to compare because they just translate everything and rarely do their own documentaries, but their news channel is also very big

It was a bit better in 2017 because there weren't any established unwritten rules or coordination between communities early on. So the French and German flags happened to intersect and there was a lot of fighting over who would be on top in that spot. But then, the EU flag emerged.

He made simplistic yet brilliant things

Absolute gigachad

yeah.

He also made marbles

He also made chairs.

It happened in the 2017 one so people did it again

There is the EU flag and also somewhere else the logo of ARTE which is a french/german TV channel

I still think the first german and belgium crossing was even more legendary considering they decided to give the eagle beer and then muscles.

Get ze Flammenwerfer

There was another German Belgian crossing at one point where they made a ww1 memorial

Without mentioning germany

Seems like a big oversight if it’s supposed to be an entire history of r/place. Among Us was kind of ubiquitous.

I spent a long time making the smile wider and wider.

@@specialmonkey68 maybe one day we can achieve a jerma sus face that smiles all across r/place.

The amount of times 985 turned into SUS at the beginning was also nightmare fuel

There’s a video of the timelapse for the face but with the Cleric Beast’s theme put over it. Absolutely terrifying

he also has jotaro’s hat

Also the button

Nah because the dude who built the first kirby had a lot of skilled army so they could build kirby instantly

@@KOT-jk7dh A skilled army wouldn't really make a fucked up Kirby would it? So it's not really a skilled army, but an army nonetheless.

@@johngrimm2074hey, how can u know if it’s skilled? Bc I was a soldier of his army, so stfu

i loved how fast it went from wholesome reddit community to full out international war.

wouldve been way better if it was fair and not botted, the bronies, french and osu botted their art so it would never be destroyed

only for a bunch of fucking streamers who just downloaded reddit to get their 9 year old viewers and ruin said artworks

@@noaheaston2147 not sure about the French and osu though

Lol if you think that's what history is then you might have a mental deficiency

the german flag had a better flag for you than you did for yourself

right? hell if i know what a maple leaf looks like

i loved that lol

My guess is the stoners were trying to make it into a marijuana leaf. The sabotage came from the inside

“Made by Americans”

Shots fired at Rubber Ross, I guess?

Honestly, it's impossible to build really complex things with this technique, but yeah it is more fun. We did a lot of baguettes around the map with this, it was really funny.

Are you a female that watches Ludwig? If so the higher ups need to hear of this.

Hi Ross 🙂

omg ur right

Am part of the Isab community above new grounds, our tank could not

@@danielsappl Aliensrock. our tank couldnt either

Iirc XQC specifically asked to leave the new grounds and FNF murals done by your chat alone

I remember seeing XQC almost destroy that. I also saw Lisa the Painful next to Omori, although not sure if that was also you guys.

Scotland was allied with omori in both your locations, it was really great to be next to your work :)

omori clan rise

Six and nine gang held down the fort fr

1-3 gang wya 😤✊

5 gang 😤😤

6 gang pull up

Meanwhile 7 gang didn't even get called yo do anything.

That's what makes it awesome. I wasn't part of a community, I didn't help create art, but I protected it. The big art pieces and the small ones, I was helping. And I'm proud of it :)

omg you're one of the monkeytype people! i was in the animal crossing community people in an alliance w you that helped rebuild lmao

monkeytype best type….

I helped made the monkey type too! Was pretty fun

Straight up.

No ew anime sucks

I was blown away the first time I saw it there. It’s such a beautiful panel

@@Magst3r1 That’s what I used to think, but then I watched One Piece.

I was working on the homestuck spot so it was fun seeing all that go down. Eventually someone tried to add a North Korea flag to the left of South Korea, but it was changed o Taiwan. We fought a lot with Taiwan trying to get on top of our card!

Lol

I feel like it's not gonna be as good as last year

@@imbaguette1985hey, you were right

Honestly, what xqc did maybe wasn't so bad either

@@aguyontheinternet8436 He did add some cool art that not that many talked about, but also gave other smaller communities a chance to put their art over what he destroyed.

@@aguyontheinternet8436 I mean, his Zyzz tribute speaks for itself

his first artpiece was the Yard logo LOL. but ya afterwards agreed.

@@chodak3709 The widow booty was what made r/place accept him lmao

Glad someone else pointed this out. Had the same music and everything 🙏

Favorite part of the video :)

yeah he's the expert of making excuses. he kept fucking with turkey's skyline art and that was good art as well

your mad about pixels on a white canvas 🤣

@@thebuttermaster9618 mad at letters on your screen?

How is that ignorant? Online content creation isn't overwriting other peoples work with your own, there's an infinite space for your own content; r/place is very finite, and so it allows for that behavior and encourages it. The whole point is that everything is temporary on the canvas and is subject to constant evolution or change from other communities. xQc happens to have one of the biggest active communities, so naturally he can change a lot at once. The entire idea of larger communities making more change happen is completely natural and so is other communities fighting against it.

when he destroyed something was actually good because small communities could make their own art when before they couldnt, so he actually was making room, it allowed a small community that I am part of to fit in so :/

Same! First one I felt a part of as well.

same It felt really nice to help my favourite streamer on this platform and i helped build every artwork he designed even if it was just 1 pixel at a time

certified Czech moment

Would have loved to see a Nigerian flag there lol....but I couldn't never get one

Idk if i want them to do it every year, or every 5 just to keep it special. Very torn

Because in the end, he *is* the villain. A villain can be a hero one day, but he'll come back to his good old habits afterwards :-)

Because it was never something he actually believed. He would just say anything at all that he thought might deflect criticism in the moment.

because his ego cant handle it, if he cant have fun anyone cant

Because he could. And Star Wars was guaranteed to rebuild immediately afterward. People need to chill when it comes to xQc

@@Flash4ML why does a dog lick his balls and a man doesn't? *Because he can.* It's just a stupid argument. Unrelated to that saying, if you do something because you can, especially things that annoy or hurt other people, that's just abuse of power and nothing worthy of praise. The other things he said where mostly excuses that fell into his lap. There are good reasons for expecting that he did not have noble intentions. It's okay to be annoyed by annoying behavior and to question it. Saying people have to chill for questioning questionable behavior just isn't right.

Silence. Join us in petty meaningless internet war

Sorry can’t hear you over funny pixel changes

well thanks for not lying to us i guess? LOO

The pixels might outlive us

and streamers make money out of it, and it was fun

Also redditors later: *d e g e n e r a c y*

actually redditors: *s* *u* *s*

meanwhile the foxhole community just remakes a game map and starts fighting a war just like in the mmo

Yep 😢

a game with joinable in game guild, Live world chat and built in heatmap perhaps.

@@riardomilos8014 you know what we need someone to make this

Idea

@@Bone_Incidents pixelplace exists

people hate bronies _so much_ and its honestly stupid. let people enjoy a show about rainbow horses.

If you look at the heat map rainbow dash is one of the reddest areas. Sadly France ruins the heat map a little bit by dwarfing everything else. I had so much fun defending Sadly I wasnt there for the first version of Rainbowdash and wasnt able to stay until the end.

@@spurrit7156 right, half the people who target mlp fans watch sonic the fucking hedgehog

Fr, people were watching his stream like a hawk. At one point he said that anything that was purple would voided with complete purple. Hollow knights background had to change from purple to blue just because he said that lol

Yeah, people took things too seriously imo, but it’s Reddit so I guess that should be expected. Streamers really didn’t do much damage, they made the whole thing much more interesting

Yeah my dude really out there making us feel bad about not paying any attention to it

Because it was a major world event lmao

definitely the best internet event in a while

Because of "Kamet0" he made a mistake.

@@rayanchaouche7487 strange, since they talked together during the event.

In the actual stream it went there, but was a different art. One that Ludwig didn’t mention

I remember that scene

I was also glued to xqc's stream. He was the most interesting streamer in a sea of streamers who did nothing but focus on maintaining existing pixels.

Yeah streamers made it so much more interesting, redditors who don’t watch twitch are really out of touch, too bad for them they missed the most exciting aspects of r/place

That's because we had a way better organisation, we were separated in wave of viewer classed by what season we are born in, for example I was in the summer army, every 5min everyone from the summer and winter army put a pixel, then it rotates to the two other season 5min later over and over meaning we had no downtime and an even amount of viewer putting pixel non stop, Americans and Spanish just put everything at once and had to wait to recharge, while they were waiting we were just trying to rebuild the outside of our art not the inside to not lose the general aspect of our art and affect the moral of the ennemies making them back off at some point, then we were able to fully recover our art, and on top of that we had a lot of pride hiding behind that because french people are known to surrender easily - which is false - and foreign streamers kept saying that at some point we were going to sleep and surrender and while we were sleeping they could just annihilate our art but like I said out of pride litteraly everyone were ready to stay up all night and even the day after to make the opponent surrender and we succeeded There was even a special task force on the command of another streamer called ZeratoR which had only one role him and his viewer to destroy all the small art the opponent community made which mean we were constantly defending our art and attacking a bit of the other art everywhere making the opponent disoriented not knowing what to do In the end like I said we just had a better organisation fighting this pixel war even while being outnumbered by a lot, thx to our general in command Kameto and all the other streamers who wouldn't back down no matter what we came out on top 💪
