The r/place Situation Explained

Ойындар

Something crazy happened last weekend. The internet descended upon an online canvas of roughly 4 million pixels.
Millions of people took part in the great social experiment that was r/place. Art was created, wars were fought and at its peak - it took over Twitch.
Whether you missed it or made it, here’s how it all happened…

    I feel like, r/place is a representation of how our society came to be, from an unorganized mess, to small groups forming, to groups making alliances and then going to war to protect their territory from outsiders. I myself was part of the r/Arknights community which had a total of 3 territories that we defended with every inch of our pixels (981x117, 1149x103, 1648x1733) and we eventually formed an alliance with all Gacha games (United Place Gacha Alliance), Tetris, VRChat and a small Poland flag and helped eachother to defend our artworks until the very end.

But is still made accusation of cheating after all, and he himself used a bot and promoted it on his stream, so shamefull. The French streaming community is holding so much events that other communities not used to doing it can't keep up with a well organised group. There were no cheating, French streaming community just dedicated their heart to the cause.

    Okay, the accusation of french Bots, and the arguments made for it specifically, is ridiculous. Time to debunk the main ones: "It was impossible for France to defend against the Spanish and Americans whose numbers are way superior": Well the thing is, 200k people attacking all at once specific parts of a banner of 120k pixels, is surpringly not very effective. The French had an hell of an organization and cohesion between streamers and communities; by splitting the task force between the 4 seasons (Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter), so they always had a reserve of pixels for defending immediately if necessary, and with the use of an Overlay, a visual aid which allows to see which pixels to place where in order to recreate images and artworks (but still needed to manually place the pixel, so it's not a bot). The French were just better organized, strength in number not always comes out on top in these situations, especially in sieges like here. "France has to have bots, because a lot of the names placing pixels are randomly generated ones": On the contrary of the US and the other countries, France don't really use Reddit as primary social network, they use more Twitter or Discord for exemple, so many of them didn't have a reddit account until the r/place; to repeat what I said earlier, French streamers have a great cohesion between themselves and their communities, so when they call for everyone to take part in it, many followed and created an account just for the occasion using Gmail, and when reddit create a new account, it generates a random name, which the French didn't bother changing. There, problem solved. "If French didn't have Bots, then why their flag disappeared faster than anyone else's creations ?": It's even simpler, at the time of the end of the r/place, the French flag was in constant attacks by the Spanish and US communities, so when reddit changed the color of pixel to only white, the French couldn't defend anymore and quickly realized that that was the end of r/place; meanwhile, the US and the Spanish communities thought that was only a glitch, and jumped on the occasion to obliterate the French flag, only realizing afterwards that this "glitch" wasn't one, but the end of the r/place. There, the force in numbers worked wonders for making the flag disappear in minutes, no need for bots on this one. "But French is using bots, even some streamers admitted it on their live, or others accused them of doing so" All that is well and good, but that's not proof, the clips used as "proof" of that were quickly debunked as a misinterpretation on the translator's part or an outright lie. You can check the streams of the French if you want, but there's 0 indication anywhere on their stream that they used bots, even the story of the script overlay that we talked about earlier. On the other hand, the french have apparently some proof that the Spanish streamers were using bot who's much more substantiated using clips of streamers and screenshots. If you want to accuse the French streamers of botting, provide some actual proofs to go along with your accusation (after verifying that your proof is valid, and not just misinterpretations to use at your advantage of course), otherwise, that's just a statement and not a fact. I'm not saying that anyone in the community didn't use bots; there will always be people who'll use bots, regardless of the community. But during the r/place, the French Streamers never encouraged anyone in their community to bot, and were even against it; and it's not by using the arguments above that you'll be able to prove the contrary.

    To anyone wondering if French people used bots : no. I was part of the thing and truth is one of us quickly developped a chrome extension to place an overlay over the canvas indicating to every single person where to place pixels. It was NOT anything near bots or automatization of some sort. As to why so many account were new It's because many people joined reddit for the occasion. On Kameto's stream, we reached 408,707 viewers. Nothing broke french twitter as much as this or brought us together as much since 2018 Football Worldcup. I am strongly against cheating in general and would have told if any suspicious script was used by the community to my knowledge. I still want to congratulate the spanish reddit community for having built in peace their own flag and stuff, but really despise their twitch community that crossed the line many time and just made it personal.

"flag across the whole map" .. the Belgium Flag did count as German Flag by not Europeans. Holland at the top with the same got ignored. people also complained that germany did german art on their german flag .. the Discord was booming with polls about everything. they had alliances with france ( like the france Place guys not the french streaming guys), with belgium, even with some streamers. a Vtuber and Myth both "attacked" germany & at the end they got a part of it. germany did help canada with their leaf and the flag... since everyone attacked their leaf. no one did attack the leaf on the german flag. People said it was mocking canada which is wasnt since it was all planed with canada. huge communities like Holo, F1, Star Wars , Superstonk all had allies with Germany and no problem. there were like 50+ more pictures blanned for the flag but time did run out at the end...

    I can say as a person who worked between groups, almost everyone had bots. Transplace used auto clockers to hold their edges, Osu used bots to help coordinate and defend some allies, my group accidently misaligned one bot so we fought ourselves. Peru did from what we knew.

    LOL I don't understand how some people can say france botted when you literally have the heatmap that prove that France didn't use bot 7:15 . If it was botted the flacg would be red constantly like the moment spain streamers started to bot over the french flag with the BTS logo.
