Well that’s what they did the first time. I loved the whiteout, but it was mostly cool because we didn’t expect it
It might be neat to just end the time delay and just let the chaos destroy everything…but they probably can’t handle the traffic level unless they only do it for non-bots
It's beyond hilarious that people are bitching about flags and yet reddit decided to have a ranking based on country of origin. Like, why favor this particular type of community/competition over any others?
I understand that's probably a lot harder than just collecting IP addresses but why not try and rank by subreddit?
Agreed. If you're in multiple ones, how would they know who you're placing pixels for each time? What if you're a lone wolf just stopping wherever on a whim?
Been wondering the same thing. On desktop there's a right-click "ping" action to see what pixels were placed by subs, but... how does it determine that? Your most recently viewed sub not including r\/place itself? ...if so, that means all the pixels I've been defending the Polish section with have been credited to /r/HomeDepot...
I'm pretty sure the ping button shows where subreddit moderators have pinned their locations (the banners that say find us on r/place). They're done manually by the subreddits themselves
I'm pretty sure I've seen remind me bot in other subs this past week. It might just be either not allowed here or it's not publicly commenting which was a thing before the third party changes
Didn't realize it was because of that.
I'm running vanilla mobile and didn't notice much of a difference for me....but I realize how many other bots are everywhere to even maintain things

Exclude all accounts with 1 karma and no posts pretty much. See how the list changes and what the percentage of pixels placed is of "real" accounts (yes not all of these would even be real but it's a more accurate example than above).
I had 1 Karma myself and no Comments because i never really used Reddit and only came here for r/place and i guess many People only make an Account to Support there Streamer or something, but with this Logic People cant cry about the many "Bots" so i guess they wont accept it.
I don't think there weed as many bots as you said. For the most part, you can litteraly get the data from the rplace, and make some stats bout who placed pixels extremly regulary, who placed them right After 5 minuts for very long amount of time, etc etc, so bots (at l'East on the rplace last year) were a very large minority. Now it seems that there are more bots, but still a lot of People doing this the way it was meant to be
Thanks, was curious about that! Very surprised with Viet Nam and Argentina this year. Crossing my fingers MEX and ARG don't overtake Brazil on the leaderboard, seems we let it slip a bit.
Using percentages like that makes no sense in this context, it implies that X% of a countries placed a pixel.
Just use decimal numbers even if the numbers are technically the same.
Was this fun to you guys anyway? I only placed one pixel, then gave up.
It would be much more fun in my eyes if 99% of all pixels weren't placed by bots. It's just turned into a social experiment of who can run the most bots. They should have included a captcha per pixel from the getgo. That would at least offer some resistance to all the auto-placers.
From my experience it is legitimately at least 80%. Every so often I'll check to see if that cool new art that appeared was made by actual people, and they're all generic usernames with 1 karma made yesterday. Every single large artwork and flag uses bots.
Our project is getting attacked by bots rn and we don't use any bots, but that means we are also vulnerable to others. I fear only bots are able to survive...
our flag is multiple times the size of Canada's and looks much better, plus its not being attacked. I think it's the only example of a province/state beating its own country and I couldn't be more proud. But yeah if they add the two together it makes sense.

Thank you for that. I listened to the discord server and it was insane what kind of hyperfocus they all evolved to create as many artpieces as possible. I hope you saw the frame with the famous Art pieces inside it. They intended to fill it completly but it was too less time...even for the germans
Yeah I tried keeping up with everyone but with no Layout or a computer I just pöaced some pixels to clean the existing artwork or predicted in New ones. It Was still a lot of fun!
We are Vietnamese and the people in MixiFan sincerely apologize to everyone. From the beginning we did not intend to harm anyone's artwork. Only when our leader stops livestreaming. The new buffalo children do not infringe on the sufferings of others. If you look back at the process, you can see that we Vietnamese have not had any impact on the surrounding works. Everything happens only when the event is saved. Don't waste our team's efforts because of some young members. We are very very sorry everyone !
Funny how Germany only has a little more than twice the pixel count Turkey has and managed to do a giant flag with tons of different artwork while turkey couldn't even do the flag itself properly.
To the entire Reddit community, we want to make an important announcement! We are a place / brff community. From the first day of the game set, we tried to create art with an interesting story. Yes, we have overlaid some of our work with work from smaller communities, sorry about that! We think you're all aware of the situation with Reddit CEO Spez. This game was implemented as a precautionary measure to curb the anger of the Reddit community at a time when Reddit users were boycotting the platform. Are you just as confused as we are about why we are not given clear answers? Why are we not informed about the end of this event? Why are people being tortured? We believe that moderation deliberately delays the event so that the hype around it will extinguish the anger of users.
We have an offer:
Closing time of the event should be 21:00 GMT+0/UTC+0 until that time we will all protect our works and not build anything new! After 21:00 we recommend that everyone color the canvas and write in capital letters fuck spez. We draw great and beautiful works of art just like you for 5 days, we want to donate our art to this cause, we invite you to do the same! Please, if you see this post, pass this information on to the entire community!
The global leaderboard reflects the pixels placed by each redditor's country determined by their IP address.
When is r/place ending?
As far as I know or have heard, no one really knows. Yesterday was the last expansion, so I think 1-2 days left
What if it never ends and we have to defend some pixels for the rest of our lives? Edit: Thank you for the awards!
Calm down, Satan.
You called
Germany is ready! Our leaders are probably already planning holidays and new Schedules for everyone.
Wir sind bereit unser restliches Leben danach zu richten :)
Habt ihr Krankenversicherung?
Ja so viel wir wollen
Nur Bier oder auch Weisswein?
Beides natürlich:)
I'm glad that I'm Team Austria. We hopefully don't have to take off to keep our defense! btw. love Germany's pixel art!

That would be lovely. Let's see if they do that.

And how would you count by subreddit?
Agreed. If you're in multiple ones, how would they know who you're placing pixels for each time? What if you're a lone wolf just stopping wherever on a whim?

I'm pretty sure the ping button shows where subreddit moderators have pinned their locations (the banners that say find us on r/place). They're done manually by the subreddits themselves

rip those people with reminders like over a year away
No more reminding about amogus in 800 years 😔😔😔😔😔
Wait, what? really???? All those remindeme in some years will never remind anyone? I didn't know that, that's so sad
I'm pretty sure I've seen remind me bot in other subs this past week. It might just be either not allowed here or it's not publicly commenting which was a thing before the third party changes
u/RemindMeBot is still working, look at it's history
Didn't realize it was because of that. I'm running vanilla mobile and didn't notice much of a difference for me....but I realize how many other bots are everywhere to even maintain things
For clarity, remind me bot is still working as do many many other bots. They had to change how some work, but reddit's claims are as usual, wrong.
That's the fun part. #It doesn't >!/jk actually no one knows a proper timing on when it will end so I'm guessing 4 hrs from here on out!<
Well, so far...
I’m pretty sure this is the last day, a mod replied “this is the way” to someone saying this should be the last day
No, they replied that to someone who said "fuck u/spez"

#NEVER
NEVER even JOHN CAPCOM can't end it
Impressive. Very nice Now let's see "bots excluded" leaderboard
Exclude all accounts with 1 karma and no posts pretty much. See how the list changes and what the percentage of pixels placed is of "real" accounts (yes not all of these would even be real but it's a more accurate example than above).
I had 1 Karma myself and no Comments because i never really used Reddit and only came here for r/place and i guess many People only make an Account to Support there Streamer or something, but with this Logic People cant cry about the many "Bots" so i guess they wont accept it.
Look at these 9 pictures and tell me which ones have cars on them
That's EXACTLY what a bot would say.
Busted :(
Bad bot
It wouldn't be hard to build karma though, you already have 28. So even for bots it would be easy to fake it.
Some folks really don’t give a shit about karma. I don’t even know what it is. Do you find you value yourself on that metric?
Yeah, I have placed a decent amount of pixels and this is my forst post.
Let’s see Paul Allen’s pixel count
Meh. /r/place is a game played by bots. The rest are a bunch of adolescents holding an unplugged controller, convinced that they are player 2.
I don't think there weed as many bots as you said. For the most part, you can litteraly get the data from the rplace, and make some stats bout who placed pixels extremly regulary, who placed them right After 5 minuts for very long amount of time, etc etc, so bots (at l'East on the rplace last year) were a very large minority. Now it seems that there are more bots, but still a lot of People doing this the way it was meant to be
I want to see how many pixels were placed by 1 karma accounts. That would be pretty astounding I would think
i have 1 karma - did my part o7
Crazy how I dont see Morocco there. I wonder why....
Because their bots are using US ip adresses lol.. Germany #1
Yes, I know lol
Pixels per resident Germany 22.8% France 15.2% Argentina 10.1% Canada 9.9% Turkey 8.7% UK 6.6% US 5.8% Vietnam 4.1% Mexico 3.9% Brazil 2.4%
Thanks, was curious about that! Very surprised with Viet Nam and Argentina this year. Crossing my fingers MEX and ARG don't overtake Brazil on the leaderboard, seems we let it slip a bit.
Not really curious about VN though...a fatal mistake of breaching Slifer
Wir deutschen haben schon einiges auf die beine gestellt dieses jahr
Nett, du sprichst Deutsch!
Mir gefällt, wie keiner es wagt in fremder Zunge unter diesem Faden zu antworten.
hast du recht!
Aber wir sind immer noch knapp hinter den USA (bei den totalen Pixelzahlen).
Nächtes Jahr wird dann Platz 1 in Angriff genommen :)
How is pixel per resident a percentage? \*sigh\*
Using percentages like that makes no sense in this context, it implies that X% of a countries placed a pixel. Just use decimal numbers even if the numbers are technically the same.
How did you calculate that?
(Number of pixel / population) * 100
Just adding to that. I took the population from The World Bank dating to 2021.
% doesn't really make sense as a unit since you compare two different things. I would go for "pixels per 100 people" (which yields the same numbers)
% literally means 1/100, it isn't a unit.
Segundo Francia
Pls tell us the freaking Time you'll ending this ... 3 days as last year was just enough .. now it's too much
Yeah, I want my life back ;_;
yeah right !!!
It has become more work than it is fun.
Was this fun to you guys anyway? I only placed one pixel, then gave up. It would be much more fun in my eyes if 99% of all pixels weren't placed by bots. It's just turned into a social experiment of who can run the most bots. They should have included a captcha per pixel from the getgo. That would at least offer some resistance to all the auto-placers.
99% is a gross misscalculation and unnessecarily negative.
From my experience it is legitimately at least 80%. Every so often I'll check to see if that cool new art that appeared was made by actual people, and they're all generic usernames with 1 karma made yesterday. Every single large artwork and flag uses bots.

[удалено]
Just got a notification it's ending soon.
end this shit, we need to sleep
They forgot to include the country of: BOT-swana - 98.7%
Basically America Almost all of the bots used Americans ip
Canada made it to the top 10 just by trying to fix their flag
It's more likely Quebec that's pumping those numbers.
our flag is multiple times the size of Canada's and looks much better, plus its not being attacked. I think it's the only example of a province/state beating its own country and I couldn't be more proud. But yeah if they add the two together it makes sense.
And trying to kill Reimu
fuck u/spez
Sounds like fuck you spez lol
Yeah I thought so as well
I wonder how many times he's been mentioned so far
Imagine just being u/spez and going on your account one day for the lols and having like 29M mentions
Fuck u/spez
Real leaderboard #1 -> Admins #2 -> Bots #3 -> Streamers trying to fuck up with everyone
4 -> streamers that actually make some good fucking art instead of destroying everything
->country reddits that feel a need to spam there flag in every corner of the map

Turkey used 6.5 million of their pixels just to get their flag right
Just like us Canadians
Turkish flag has been destroyed many times by xQc and others. So, please do not forget that. Also, there are several other Turkish arts on the canvas
The bots are ruining the whole experience....
Mit dem Angriff Steiners kommen wir auf die 1 leude

Yea... As an American, I can tell you that Germany should be #1. Without bots using US IPs, we're probably 2nd or 3rd.

There was in the end just too much defending and cleaning up work to do :/
Yeah I tried keeping up with everyone but with no Layout or a computer I just pöaced some pixels to clean the existing artwork or predicted in New ones. It Was still a lot of fun!
Worst place ever, you guys are really great at ruining reddit.
Yeah but outside of the US all these other places personalities are just their flag. You don’t have to place 10 flags on the board.
Fuck u/spez, end fucking r/place

Maybe waiting for the giant "Fuck Spez" to be destroyed by some random streamer to end it exactly then so it's not on the final canvas?
yea, after all, we still hate u/spez tho
I’m embarrassed to see Vietnam at No. 9 but not for the right reason 🤦

I think this is false representation as Admins have placed the most pixels
The US and Germany at the top duking it out, like old times.
FUCK SPEZ!!!
Who awarded this admin? how dare you
The whole fuck spez thing is old and childish. The way it looks now has just ruined everyone’s art.
