#r place

[mindofthemage]

Reddit decided that reopening r/place would be a good decision in the middle of the Reddit community hating the CEO

Foolish: Oh! That's a fun little guy. What's that? Is that like, a caterpillar? Is that a cat?

Rubius: What - it's not a cat, it's Titi!

Foolish: Titi?

Rubius: Yeah! It's the main character from Karmaland.

During r/place last year, Rubius shared some Karmaland lore with Foolish (in the midst of many a Discord calls between allies and enemies as the pixel war waged 😅). Karmaland V was the server Quackity was part of before he began QSMP, and Titi, the little alien tree creature Rubius and Foolish have this discussion about, is believed to be the inspiration behind QSMP's Egg.

Rubius: Ehhh, it's -

Foolish: Is it like your little bear guy? Your little Minecraft character?

Rubius: Yeah.

Foolish: [Noticing Titi] Oh! That's a fun little guy. What- what's that? Is that like a caterpillar? Is that a cat? What- what's like that-

Rubius: What - it's not a cat, it's Titi!

Foolish: Titi?

Rubius: Titi, come back! Over here!

Rubius: Don't do it, Titi.

Foolish: [Laughs]

Rubius: No- don't laugh! It's not funny.

Foolish: No- estoy triste [I'm sad].

Rubius: Ok, now you have to help me because you insulted the- you insulted Titi.

Foolish: Is T- is Ti- so Titi' i's a cat?

Rubius: IT'S NOT A CAT! It's a...

Foolish: No! Right, fck! No, that's right! It's not a cat!

Rubius: It's an... alien tree. An alien tree. [To his chat] He keeps calling him a cat! It came from inside a friend called Staxx. He was pregnant, and this came out of him.

Foolish: Ohh. Wow!

Rubius: Yes.

Foolish: That's- that must've been intense.

Rubius: Yeah, a little bit. [Laughs]

Foolish: And- and that was your... like, became like your kid kinda? Or like a- you were like an uncle for it?

Rubius: Yeah, I'm his... father because I was the only one taking care of him.

Foolish: Ohhh, but then you did a bad job and he died?

Rubius: No, I- I- no. He died because he saved us.

Foolish: OHHH wow!

Rubius: From a massive attack, yes.

Foolish: That's very- that's very noble of Titi.

Rubius: Yes.

...Is this kind of post even something you can do on Tumblr ?

Anyhow, you’re probably familiar with r/place.

Last year, i was co-leading the group that created a Chara on r/place (We even got a shoutout in a Jackspepticeye video :D)

This year, i have been forced to watch idly by as something pretty awful took place. I’ll try and make it short.

The “void”, a swarm of empty black space that spreads around everywhere consuming the canvas, is actually unable to fight any of the bigger structure that use bots and cheats to keep themselves up this year. Due to all these projects being ready sooner and with more preparation.

So instead, it just goes around left and right, destroying the “”easy targets”” of the tiny pixel art works of small communities who spent days trying to create them in their tiny corner of the map, and ignores all the poorly made botted artificial creations, the plain flags which do nothing but to waste the available space, and ruin the spirit of the event...

Basically, it only targets the kind of art that r/place was actually supposed to be about making, and which are now a tiny minority this year.

Yesterday, it decided for some reason to make another beeline of 200+ pixels forward just to go destroy 3 small independent artworks, including one of Undertale. It was just a small wholesome pixel art of Frisk and Chara based on this image. And which had only just been finished 15 minutes before after having been in the works for days.

The people behind it , quite determined, spent the entire night, without even sleeping, trying to fight that void off in order to save their artwork from being destroyed for nothing but funsies, only to be overrun just right now and that was just awful to watch unfold in real time. There is almost nothing left  of their art now aside from some people from the “void” making fun of them for trying to resist their swarm...

So well, if anyone reading this wants to go and try to help them save it or rebuild it, it was located at -90, -800. It isn’t difficult to do, just making one click once every few  minutes makes all the difference. Or you could also join their discord server at : https://discord.gg/Cex9DwdP if you’re interested.

I hope that whatever amount of clout i have can bring them a little support after this... Watching this happen from just makes me feel awful and i felt like i needed to do or say something about it.

Year after year it's all the same. Canada can't draw their own flag

Im doing my part, but are you doing yours?

[this-is-a-love-story-isnt-it]

r/place is so fun?! Our Bluey art has been looking really good today. We just have to defend it from trolls who want to put random pixels all over it, and from Bluey fans outside of their discord who think they are helping but don’t have a template so they’re just changing it to make it what they think it should look like. We made an alliance with the My Little Pony sub to the right of us. They got attacked once today so we helped them bounce back. Then they got attacked by some streamer and their viewers who just wanted to destroy things and they had them wiped out in moments. And then they put a giant Bulbasaur in their space. Like… if you want to destroy something in r/place for the fun of it, then destroy one of the many many flags that are way larger than they should be.

My Little Pony started rebuilding with our help tonight, which is after new colors were added, so they look better than they did before. They still have to fix their background, tho.

r/place is back on Reddit. Not sure how it will go this year (our TARDIS just got destroyed on day 1), but at least I can revel in this from comment from last year:

[thatscrazyrandom]

I know the reasons r/place is happening right now suck, and there's obviously a lot of drama on going with it, but fuck man. I love that shit so much.

Listening to some random r/place videos covering highlights from the battle and I get the biggest frickin grin on my face when Rubius shows up and when the English streamers talk about the Spanish streamers like they're frickin guardian angels. I love seeing international communities overlapping and working together to do things despite language barriers, whether it's for projects like QSMP or silly fun battles like r/place.
