Default Reddit r/place calgary flames C

Didn't see a thread for this. The flaming c is still going strong in top left corner. If you have a reddit account drop by and add a square to contribute. It's being constantly attacked but is holding well. The oilers were wiped off hours ago.

The usual drama that results from /r/place is my signal to take a break from browsing Reddit for a bit.

Agreed. I use Apollo to browse Reddit and have a few filters on to block /r/place.

Are these inside jokes or are you guys serious? How could anyone over the age of 15 get bogged down in Reddit “drama” on a particular sub? Especially one as stupid as r/place.

In all the years I’ve browsed Reddit, I can’t think of a single example of subreddit drama that has impacted me.

How could anyone with reading comprehension beyond a Kindergarten level assume that getting involved in said drama is what was meant? No, I mean when every third thing that shows up in /r/all involves either /r/place or related subreddit drama surrounding /r/place. Instead of sifting through the garbage, it's easier to just disconnect until it has run its course.

Think of it the same way as when Stampede is on and people opt to go on vacation or away to their cottages instead to avoid it.

If you have a reddit account, every 5-20 minutes you can lay down a single pixel anywhere you want on a giant collage. Every reddit user can do it and it's all live updated here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/place/?cx=1820&cy=728&px=179

It's obviously very busy but there's a small flames logo close to the top left, along with a bunch of other images you might recognize. Many of the images take tonnes of coordination to look as good as they do.

There is also a Canucks logo at (888,465) that should get wiped out like the Oilers logo did

I think I get it, but still not quite sure where you see the actual active collage?

But presumably it could be a battle between thousands of users trying to draw in a giant American flag vs thousands of users trying to erase over it with a giant pee pee or something? So how the hell does everyone coordinate?

Click my link then click that weird looking collage thing, it should all load after that.

Basically that's what it is, a mix of trying to draw an image or sabotaging others. People coordinate through specific subreddits, discord and other online chatting services.

As a heads up if you click on the collage, there are definetly some nsfw images on it at times

"Imagine what could be accomplished with this energy directed somewhere less useless" is the only thing that comes to mind.

I know this applies to a lot of things people waste time doing, but they're usually not so... co-ordinated.
