[tribal estuary]

Good luck everyone

Im going to bed

[scenic current]

It worked using my own reddit account.. that doesn't bode well

It's shadowbans

Manually placing a pixel with one of the accounts doesn't show up on my main account

Ima make two more accounts, and just leave 3 bots running overnight or somethin

[tawny adder]

Hold this down then

If we don't have anything else

[rose prairie]

Is this being attacked?

[zenith jolt]

does that pic down there also include the rick roll?

[rose prairie]

currently yes

I can always change that

[tawny adder]

No but it will be

[scenic current]

I saw your template had changed...
I zoomed in on the image
I took out my phone...
I opened the camera
I got Rick rolled -_-

[rose prairie]

that's kinda funny 🙂

so I'm the only one trying to take the portugal flag?

[scenic current]

I'm with you on that

I'll leave 3 accounts running overnight, maybe we will wake up to a completed art piece...

Maybe

[scenic current]

Think I can get away with 4 bots?

[rose prairie]

probably

[zenith jolt]

gah, hate it when I misplace

[rose prairie]

we have an N at the portugal flag

[scenic current]

It's kinda being eaten

[rose prairie]

very very slowly. If people help we can easily fight that

[zenith jolt]

I have a whole NMS at the french spot 😄 going to make a knowledge stone next

[scenic current]

4 bots will be coming online soon™️

Actually

Ima try for 5

Including mine

Spinning up 5 bots now, may the odds be ever in our favor

Uhhhhh

Mine worked but the rest are still failing. Reddit might be requiring a certain amount of karma to interact with r/place now -_-

I'll leave it running just in case tho

[rose prairie]

I just made a new account and can place without problem

did you verify the emails?

I had to verify to be allowed access with the new account

[scenic current]

Refresh the page and see if it's still there

Emails are all verified

Besides we have another problem

It succeeded in placing a pixel on mine.... but the wrong color

[jaunty junco]

💀

[scenic current]

Rip

[scenic drum]

Going to be at work today guys so I cant help

[scenic current]

So uh

I think that's it for the bot idea

I guess we can slowly expand what we have going with the template rn, but that will take hours even without anybody interfering

[rose prairie]

currently this area is pretty much dead, so we have a chance

[scenic drum]

Ill help a little

[scenic current]

We simply need more people

And we simply cannot get more people

[rose prairie]

we'd need a setup like the germans, that would make things much easier

[scenic current]

What do they have?

Well whatever they have we still don't have the people for it

[rose prairie]

they have a server that checks the current state of the canvas and determines what pixels need changing and every german has a script installed that requests an order from the server

[scenic current]

;-;

Then..

[rose prairie]

so:

• install script
• and done

[scenic current]

Could we just ask them for it?

[dreamy drum]

serh klug

[scenic current]

I'm guessing that's a no

Either way that still needs more people

[dreamy drum]

i could proboly idk what server they on

[rose prairie]

we could use their script and just change the server, but we'd still need a server

[rose prairie]

yeah, but more people who need to do nothing but install the script and leave r/place open

much easier to get people who don't have to actively do anything

[scenic current]

I'd host a server if I could, but isp blocks port forwarding so that isn't happening

Either way the last time I tried to get more people my post was removed by mods

[jaunty junco]

I can do it for a bit :P

[rose prairie]

what? host a server?

[jaunty junco]

oh

uh

I mean

what type of server

[rose prairie]

they use a websocket

apart from that, depends on the software we'd use. Which btw we'd also still need

[scenic current]

annnd people, which we cant get, which makes the rest of this pointless

Also doesn't r/place end soon

[dreamy drum]

i asked in there server in german ( my german very basic soo)

[dreamy drum]

subreddit i mean

[jaunty junco]

There is a place we can host a websoket server

idk if its free

[scenic current]

Still would need their code and client script, we don't have time to make it ourselves

[jaunty junco]

hmmm

[dreamy drum]

i asked them for it they have a subreddit

[scenic current]

In other news the M in NMS is done

[jaunty junco]

nice

[dreamy drum]

now we nearly have 2 NMS

[rose prairie]

asking on r/placede would probably be better

so N and M are done

[dreamy drum]

yeah on that

[scenic current]

Fun fact, as our current rate of pixel placement it will take about 170 hours to complete the template

[dreamy drum]

but my german is pretty trash

[scenic current]

90 hours at the absolute best

18 hours with 20 people

[rose prairie]

I now have 2 accounts

so factor that in

[scenic current]

About 4 hours with 100 people

And about 20 minutes with 1000 people

[scenic current]

Closer to 100-120 hours

[dreamy drum]

they ahve a ton of people in vc

[rose prairie]

it would take one person 354 hours to finish the picture with no interference

[dreamy drum]

but i carnt join cause i am not verifed as part of there community

[scenic current]

Yep

Once again, lack of people is the problem... for one of the biggest subreddits

[scenic drum]

This is exactly why I made the art so big to start with. Thought we could pull it off.

[scenic current]

Yeaaa...

And my post trying to get more people was removed. We are caught in a negative loop

[rose prairie]

We would have had to find interested people WAY before place started

[scenic current]

Yea

Smh just hack this discord server and ping everyone 5 times, then they will work against us for daring to disturb them!

[dreamy drum]

this is what i dug up: https://place.army/

[rose prairie]

yeah, I already know about that one. Has the link to their script. Install it und you're german now

[dreamy drum]

there sever says send a message in gerneral to be verifed but it never works cause i carnt lol

[rose prairie]

Look at that, official statement by reddit on automated placement:
https://www.reddit.com/r/place/comments/156zhxn/bots_scripts_and_another_canvas_expansion/

[scenic current]

wss://carpetbomber.place.army

Is their websocket server

[rose prairie]

NMS is done

[scenic current]

Just keep following the template I guess, do artwork before the background

[rose prairie]

agree

Atlas next?

[scenic current]

We could try. Atlas is very big though

[rose prairie]

I know

[scenic current]

Start with the red outline around the atlas then

N and M slightly damaged

[rose prairie]

I know. I should really go for a run before its too late. Don't wanna go out when the suns high

[scenic current]

Running in 110 degree weather is fun

[dreamy drum]

spounds fun

they want what comminity i repersent so mill just put r/NoMansSkyTheGame

if thats ok with the mods illw ait

[scenic current]

Just put that or NMS, doesn't really matter

[dreamy drum]

ok

[scenic current]

Could just straight up ask them to help with our template or something

I mean, not happening. But would be kinda funni if they did

[dreamy drum]

i need community rep on there sevr to chat

[scenic current]

It seems the area we are in is waking up

Say goodbye to nms again

It's a shame, the template is so good

The other nms is still standing, we probably don't want to try expanding that one though

[dreamy drum]

i think this is good enough - i just said we needed a skript if that was ok

[scenic current]

I don't really think it matters, even if they give the script away we won't have enough people, and we don't have a server to host it on.

[dreamy drum]

i ahve 2 accounts so do you idk maybe we could make something small

[scenic current]

At one point we had a nice little thing, but that took a few hours with 4 or 5 people active

I say we just maintain the secondary NMS

There's so many hands on the dog now lol

[zenith jolt]

well my knowledge stone is starting

[scenic current]

It's being countered by the flag

[zenith jolt]

its being countered by something not the flag because they change to the wrong colour

[scenic drum]

What it comes down to is we have a 800k plus subreddit but maybe only 10 people have contributed so far. One of the biggest draws about the game is the cool visuals, and I thought that would easily translate into wanting to represent NMS with cool pixel art for r/place.

Even with another expansion it doesn't matter. So dissapointed.

I'll be gone for a few hours now. Maybe a miracle will happen lol.

[dreamy drum]

the germans hate me beacuse i carnt spell lol

[zenith jolt]

i see the bottom stuff is gone. help me make the knowledge stone

[robust forge]

morning to you all

where are we at the moment

[zenith jolt]

well im a little lonely up at -500,-368

[rocky rover]

hello, im not sure if you guys have spare pixels but the lesbian flag at the signalis area is getting shat on by a huge pig 😭 a lot of us are currently asleep so clean up isn't going great, we could use the help if anyone's free !!

[robust forge]

oh damn

wait but isn't it just going to get covered up

[scarlet wigeon]

@P3ACE Alliance Member Gigantic botted letters appearing over art belonging to A Lot of Us. Please direct pixels to repair this artwork!

[scarlet wigeon]

@P3ACE Alliance Member Gacha Alliance Artwork, Geometry Dash and artworks to the east are being attacked by botted words! Please retaliate accordingly!

This affects 4 alliance members (VA-11 HALL-A, Genshin, Hatsune, and Geometry Dash) so far. Your pixels are appreciated!

[lyric python]

Lol

[robust forge]

lmao

[zenith jolt]

I'm still standing.. yeah yeah yeah

[warm wagon]

no way

are we still doing stuff

hey ugys

maybe germany lets us put up an atlas in their flag

they seem to be letting ina lot of pixel art

[rose prairie]

87 pixels high. would fit the whole atlas from our art

[warm wagon]

lets do it

imma contact them rn

[rose prairie]

I'll prepare a proposal art

[warm wagon]

they're not allowing diplomatic requests ???

oh wait yest htey are

ill make contact

[warm wagon]

i think they might ask for some kind of credence or smth like that to know if im actually representing nms, so yall back me up if they come in here and ask

or we can just have an admin talk to them but idk if any are online rn

[rose prairie]

sure thing

representatives for place are @scenic drum @sudden pagoda and me

[zenith jolt]

I'd love to defend that! I'm bored of my NMS letters only

[robust forge]

I'm standing with you

[warm wagon]

is that the real richard hammond

[zenith jolt]

they wouldnt let me build the grey squares but are letting me pull down the black.. maybe after yet another line we can make something.. I might try a ship

[warm wagon]

are you the real richard hammond

[robust forge]

ong I am

[warm wagon]

cap

[robust forge]

ye ik

the guy doesn't have discord

[warm wagon]

y u got the content creator badge tho

whats ur social

[robust forge]

should be on my profile

[robust forge]

I was thinking that too

[rose prairie]

@warm wagon any news with germany?

[warm wagon]

yes

im talking with them rn one sec

they've responded asking for the art as a png in 1:1, i sent it, waiting on a response for that

[robust forge]

are we getting a spot?

[rose prairie]

I mean, them asking for the art is definitely a good sign

[warm wagon]

they def have room too

[rose prairie]

I mean...they have 2 full lengths of canvas, duh

[warm wagon]

and they're adding new art as we speak

the rep said "forwarded" so i guess it was approved

[rose prairie]

I suppose we will now join their tin soldier army?

[warm wagon]

idk how their leadership structure works so maybe we need admin approval, im not sure

[scenic drum]

Good luck with this guys. I wont be able to help right now.

[warm wagon]

i think this means the same bot fleet that runs their flags will run our shit now

although i dont really know

[rose prairie]

not really bots, but yes

[warm wagon]

wym bro ofc their bots

[rose prairie]

nope

they're just over 50k people and each of them has an autoplacer installed

all legitimate accounts, with a person behind that

[warm wagon]

399, 163

somethign just happened

i think bad apple might have finished or smth

[robust forge]

yep

so are we getting a spot then or what

[warm wagon]

idk

remains to be seen

[rose prairie]

if we do, we will see within minutes

maybe less

[warm wagon]

for real

if yall wanna see r/place taken to it's logical conclusion

check out pixelcanvas.io

but uhhh

content warning

[rose prairie]

fuck

[scenic drum]

PixelPlanet is worse nsfw warning

[robust forge]

wait what

[rose prairie]

its basically r/place with an unlimited canvas, it seems

[scenic drum]

So which German flag is it that we might get a spot on?

[rose prairie]

we'll see

also I've just been told that there is a voting and currently its looking good for us

[scenic drum]

I'm assuming it's the emptier second one

[rose prairie]

voting is at 1000/360

[scenic drum]

So they are going to build it for us?

[warm wagon]

a voting?

where

[rose prairie]

german discord

[warm wagon]

~1100 for 440 against

nvm 1200 for

[scenic drum]

Oh wow

Maybe there are a lot of german nms players

[robust forge]

wait so how are we doing then

are they going to build it for us themselves?

[warm wagon]

yeah

the process for us is as follows: if we win the vote (idk if its 2/3rds or majority or what) then our art is given a location and sent to the builders who add it to the pixel art

[rose prairie]

you can help building it by installing their script: https://github.com/PlaceDE-Official/zinnsoldat/raw/main/output/placebot.user.js

[scenic drum]

It will look good over Starry Night

If they put it there

[rose prairie]

agreed

[zenith jolt]

ok where is this new place?

[rose prairie]

we're waiting for the germans to finish voting

[warm wagon]

1403 for 546 against

[robust forge]

so we won?

[rose prairie]

probably. No idea how loing the voting goes

[warm wagon]

1500-600 now

we're def gonna win but idk how long we have to weiat

[rose prairie]

apparently they have 3 kinds of votings:
First one is propose whatever and see how many people like it
Second is choose which ones of those should make the cut
Third one is about the actual design, so basically already in, but the design might be changed a bit

We're currently in the third voting

so basically, we're in and so far people like the design

[zenith jolt]

well that is good sounding

[warm wagon]

1600-635

whoever made the pixel art did a wonderful job, the germans seem to love it

[scarlet wigeon]

@P3ACE Alliance Member Bronies are suffering an attack from a streamer at around -500, -630! Please help our alliance member!

[scenic drum]

Me an @rose prairie

[rose prairie]

technically just @scenic drum I cut out the Atlas and that was all you

[warm wagon]

damn good job @scenic drum it looks sick

[scenic drum]

Well I copied the atlas off yours from last year basically

I think I just made it bigger

[warm wagon]

oh nooooooooo not the bronies

anyway

2.5x as many thumbs up as thumbs down

on our vote

[scenic drum]

I was going to Dm you later apologizing for getting you involved in planning because this was going to end up being a huge waste of my time

[robust forge]

what does the design look like

[scenic drum]

Oh its up already

[warm wagon]

no

thats the preview in their voting channel

[robust forge]

wait what about the text nms

like above it

[scenic drum]

Im just happy to get something

[robust forge]

fair

[scenic drum]

It already fits well in their flag too with the red and black

[robust forge]

what's the purple

[rose prairie]

@warm wagon could you maybe tell them to put it as low as possible, so the impact at the ground doesn't hang in the air?

[rose prairie]

the purple was supposed to be a darker red, which we do not have available

[scenic drum]

Suggest above starry night too

@warm wagon

[warm wagon]

contacting them now

[zenith jolt]

this is exciting

[warm wagon]

1785, 724 are now the vote

ratio of 2.2

[robust forge]

people who are voting no are rats

[warm wagon]

ong

i think they just dont know what nms is

or dont like the purple

but like what else can we do yknwo

[scenic drum]

I think the purple was just for more definition

[warm wagon]

does anybody have any idea what's happening at -232 -725?

is that planned or just a spontaneous occurence in the middle of an unstructured collaborative piece?

because the latter is kind of terrifying

[rose prairie]

I believe we had something like that last year too

[warm wagon]

yeah

[rose prairie]

seems to be the swarm

[warm wagon]

it turned into mr incredible

new development

from a designer (translated from german):
The design backlog is huge right now - all artworks that have enough likes will be gradually posted to ⁠newest-goals over the next few hours

im not sure how many likes is enough

[rose prairie]

check other artworks that are already in

[warm wagon]

im looking for ones with similar like/dislikes as ours

seems like we need more likes

~3000

were still going up so maybe we can hit it

maybe 25000

2500*

[scarlet wigeon]

@P3ACE Alliance Member Any help is appreciated against the Dominican flag who destroyed ~6 communities artwork

https://github.com/Celarye/r-place-alliance/blob/master/templates/TitanPlace.json

[warm wagon]

on a positive note the new artwork is going up rather quickly

good lord they completed it in 10 minutes

the germans are insane

we have hit 2000 likes

[zenith jolt]

I can't wait up to see the outcome, its 2am and I must sleep.

I hope later to see the Atlas! carry on the fight Travellers!

[warm wagon]

:emoji dissolving while throwing up hands and crying:

were gonna have to wait a good minute

there are a bunch of artworks with more likes than ours, and it seems that they go by which ones have the most rather than which ones have enough and were posted first

[robust forge]

if we don't get on I am going to personally invade and occupy Germany

[warm wagon]

real

theres always france

if we get a smaller design

we can just ask them to put the letters somewhere ig

[robust forge]

nah we WILL get on there

[warm wagon]

they said that asking for our art to be on the bottom near starry night might not be possible

honsestly idgaf i just want nms on place

[scarlet wigeon]

@P3ACE Alliance Member Babymetal also under attack. Below foxhole and to the left of Black Company

[scenic drum]

Time might run out now even if they want ours on it.

[warm wagon]

i dont think were popular enough to get on germany :/

[scenic drum]

How many more have more votes than us

[warm wagon]

like 90% of them

its joever...

[scenic drum]

Oh well I guess that's it then lol

[tribal estuary]

I just woke up

What’s happening?

[warm wagon]

were tryna get germany to let our art on their flag

a vote is ongoing, but we dont have as many thumbs up as a lot of other art so i dont think well make it in time

[cunning heron]

hmm, could we maybe try to get it on UK? I mean Hello Games IS from UK

[warm wagon]

they arent that big

germany owns r/place, they're our best bet

if u wanna contact them go ahead

heres the image

[cunning heron]

Okay I'll see what I can do

[warm wagon]

our ticket has been closed

i dont think were getting on germany

[robust forge]

ok so try get someone else then

[cunning heron]

After some talks

[warm wagon]

send discord invite

[scenic drum]

This is the last day of r/place right?

[crisp copper]

@cunning heron Unapproved Discord invite

[cunning heron]

wtf

[warm wagon]

dm

[cunning heron]

The canvas just got extented

[scenic drum]

We just need to team up with a country thats oir onlu hope at this point

I also know someone from ukplace. Ill try to dm them.

[jaunty junco]

ukplace got raided

[cunning heron]

They are getting attacked atm

[scenic drum]

Anyone have the ukplace discord link handy?

[cunning heron]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ukplace/

[jaunty junco]

its just .gg/ukplace

[cunning heron]

ah that works too

[jaunty junco]

:>

[scenic drum]

Can you dm me the link. Im on my phone.

[jaunty junco]

done

[scenic drum]

I used to be in the server 2 months ago and met the owner

[jaunty junco]

👍

[jaunty junco]

uhh, thats very blurry lol ;-;

[scenic drum]

I gave them the 1:1 image

[jaunty junco]

ahh alr

[scenic drum]

I dont think they want it. They say it's too big.

[robust forge]

bruh

just build it at the bottom

[scenic current]

We have a smaller atlas as well if that one doesn't work

[warm wagon]

send it

[scenic current]

Alright

Uno momento

Several color variations

[scenic drum]

They don't want it.

Ill try the smaller suggestion

[cunning heron]

Also got one

[warm wagon]

ill transcribe rq

we can build it ourselves if they dont take it

this small one

[scenic current]

why is the left corner black and the rest grey

[scenic drum]

Im mean im willing to help try one more time with something, but this is just not our year it seems.

[scenic current]

This is the 3rd smol atlas

[cunning heron]

anyways ill start to build something alone at -92, 935, conditions are pretty nice

[warm wagon]

i say we do this one

[scenic drum]

Maybe if we attempt it beside them they would help us out?

[scenic current]

Maybe?

[scenic drum]

Ill ask

[scenic current]

why does that one have weird colors tho

[warm wagon]

we can switch colors

heres a better(?) one

[scenic current]

That is a very very small image

[scenic drum]

I dm an admin but im not getting my hopes up with this

[scenic drum]

Yeah thats not even worth doing

[warm wagon]

than i guess its nada

its truly joever

[scenic current]

I quite like this one, but it's the biggest of the bunch

[scenic drum]

I just dont think we can try again on our own. Just not enough help, and I'm burnt out on all this now.

[warm wagon]

same

[scenic drum]

You can't compete with bots and countries.

[warm wagon]

last year was way better

[scenic drum]

Shame what r/place is going to be now if tbey ever do another one. Should of had a rule not allowing recent accounts.

Yep. r/place peaked in 2022

It's lost its magic.

[cunning heron]

shall we try to secure this area and then see what we do?

[scenic drum]

I guess

[cunning heron]

Should have enough space for an Atlas and NMS sign

[scenic drum]

Like i said i doubt we can do much. We couldnt even hold a small non active spot yesterday

[full cape]

is there a foundation already set?

[cunning heron]

am trying

I think alone

[scenic drum]

289, 944 lets just try that spot

I guess we can pick one of these to try

[cunning heron]

looks like someone is building a cat with sun glasses

[full cape]

we must destroy the sunglasses for the glory of the atlas

[scenic drum]

-585, 764

What about there

-583, 736

In that area

Nvd germany is taking it

[full cape]

i mean i reckon the sunglasses are a good place just to use as a foundation cuz theres already pixels there we can build from

[full cape]

im not suprised theyve taken literally everything

[scenic drum]

Ok lets do that

[full cape]

yep

[cunning heron]

we need more people

[scenic drum]

What image are we going with

[cunning heron]

if we start building

[full cape]

from this either the green or the pink marked one

[scenic drum]

Been the problem from the start for an 800k sub it's a shame

Lets just go with pink

[cunning heron]

Yeah

[scenic drum]

So 289, 944

[full cape]

alright i say we use the right side of the glasses as our start for the top left bit of pink

[full cape]

yeah

i started the top there

with that block sort of

[tribal estuary]

I was away for a bit

Germany and UK are off?

[scenic drum]

Lets start here

[full cape]

or that if you want sure

[cunning heron]

sunglass could save us some pixels

[scenic drum]

Lets make 293, 938 top left corner

Nvmd someone writing text just take the sunglasses

[tribal estuary]

What are we doing RN?

[cunning heron]

sunglass

[scenic drum]

Bottom red circle

[full cape]

yep

[scenic drum]

283, 946 top left corner?

[full cape]

sure

[cunning heron]

According to Warplan Pink

[full cape]

thats what i thought originally

so are we doing left or right?

[scenic drum]

Bottom red circle

Top 4 pixels are done right now

At 283, 946

[cunning heron]

okok

[scenic drum]

Just dont think we can do much with just us rn

[full cape]

nope

[scenic drum]

Ah well i guess we started it a little to the left thats fine too

278, 943

Top left

[cunning heron]

imagine having a 800 K subreddit and like 20k online discord member, but still struggling to put some pixel

[full cape]

we're doing somewhat well

nvm just lost a pixel

[cunning heron]

Could we maybe get something on #nms-announcements or #server-announcements

[scenic drum]

They arent interested in officially advertising it

I was told to do that myself

[cunning heron]

geez

[scenic drum]

All they gave us was a separte channel

[spare jetty]

Because this sort of thing isn't everyone's cup of tea.

[full cape]

fair enough i guess

[spare jetty]

I've been watching the struggle, though.

[tawny adder]

Saw alot of people wanted to write "fuck Spez" instead.

[tribal estuary]

I don’t blame them

[scenic drum]

278, 943 top left of this image:

[scenic current]

You don't need to include the pink and do the actual atlas before the background

[scenic drum]

Yeah prob wont even do the atlas though lol

[cunning heron]

maybe just 20 pixels

before we get overrun

[scenic drum]

I mean we can do it without any interference

[full cape]

youd be setting a record

theres a pretty big red canvas being set up closely on the left

[cunning heron]

there is this amogus and

and....

go see yourself before it gets removed

[full cape]

oh lovely

[tribal estuary]

I dont wanna…

[full cape]

it looks like chunks are being taken out of it not just pixels tf

[cunning heron]

admin

[tribal estuary]

So The Atlas is going in this general location?

[scenic drum]

Imediate left of that

[scenic drum]

278, 943 top left corner

[tribal estuary]

That’s what I thought

[full cape]

we're doing good

ish

[tribal estuary]

Of the atlas, not the image

[scenic drum]

Right

Just ignore yellow line for now

Lets focus on the rest

[tawny adder]

That could be someone's canvas were in

[scenic drum]

Put black up against the yellow on your next pixel

Yeah im fine with it being cut off by just a little rn

Man we are close to having this sort of defined

[tribal estuary]

Should we replace some of the extra, unwanted black on the left edge with bg colour?

[cunning heron]

maybe finish our shape first

[tribal estuary]

Kay

[scenic drum]

Not important rn

It might hekp us on the left side even

Make others think its one thing

This is from my void friend

Might be too late for that now lol

And we cant even exist because of a stupid flag

[scenic current]

Nms definitely counts as a small game lol

[tribal estuary]

I mean, there’s only 18 quintillion planets

[cunning heron]

we are getting overrun

something red is there

[scenic drum]

The usernames on the huge flag ive checked all new accounts

Made in july

[cunning heron]

Oh it's fucking chile

[scenic drum]

Fuck this shit

Cant even compete with bots

[cunning heron]

Gentlemen it has been an honor

[scenic drum]

Im done

Reddit lets new accounts participate

[cunning heron]

I'm proud for you guys for keeping this going for so long

[scenic drum]

Okay maybe they stop right before us

[cunning heron]

oh

[scenic drum]

I see a black line forming now

[cunning heron]

We even got a nice frame

[scenic drum]

Yeah we might get lucky

[tribal estuary]

I think they might’ve just missed us

🤞

[tawny adder]

They're attacking

[robust forge]

What's going on fellas

[tawny adder]

Build the border on the left

Separate the red

[scenic drum]

Ok now we are done

[tawny adder]

Another damn flag

[tribal estuary]

Trying to build a mini atlas at 278 943, but we’re under attack

We might be finished

TF is with all the flags?

[scenic drum]

We almost had it defined

[robust forge]

Oh ye I see

[scenic drum]

Its for sure over now

[tawny adder]

Rebuild the black border on the left

[scenic drum]

You cant compete with this

[tribal estuary]

We just don’t have enough people

[robust forge]

Can't we just overlap some of these turds

[scenic drum]

Im out. This is finally it for my efforts.

[cunning heron]

Plan B

mini atlas

[tribal estuary]

It’s been fun, but I think it’s kind pointless

I doubt we can get anything recognisable down

[cunning heron]

yeah

fuck it

[tawny adder]

Chile flag is getting attacked rn

We can redefine our area

[cunning heron]

it'll be over when we go to sleep

[tawny adder]

Focus on separating ourselves from them with that border to the left and we may establish it again.

[robust forge]

https://github.com/Edouard127/reddit-placebot-2023 if anyone is willing to even try

[full cape]

whats this mr hammond

[tribal estuary]

We tried bots

Yesterday

[full cape]

srsly?

[tribal estuary]

All got shadowbanned

Not advanced enough

[full cape]

dishonourful i say

[tribal estuary]

Actually we used that same program

[robust forge]

Ah

Even followed that rotating tor configuration?

[tribal estuary]

France and all the other ones must have some kind of rudimentary vpn system

[tribal estuary]

Not sure, Sharpy and Evo were handling the techy stuff

Ours were all coming from the same ip adresses

[tawny adder]

And now they're back to us

Like they need a bigger flag

[tribal estuary]

I don’t understand the flag obsession everyone has

I think we’re doomed if we stay in that location

[cunning heron]

we are already doomed

[scenic current]

Thats the exact one I tried lol

[robust forge]

Lol

[scenic current]

We have like 35 bot accounts, but they are all shadowbanned from r/place

[robust forge]

Making your own would more than likely be the most effective

But that takes too much coding shi to get working

[scenic current]

don't have time to do that, and they would still get shadowbanned anyways

[robust forge]

So how do they get shadowbanned in the first place cause the flags seem to be unscaved

[scenic current]

germany for example, has a script that asks a server what pixels need to be placed, then automatically does it, but thats running on legit user's accounts, so they don't get shadowbanned

[scenic drum]

For me, bots ruin this whole event. If you have to have bots to have a chance then it's not what made the event worthwhile to me. So Im not interested. I want it to be about real people playing. But it's not anymore.

Had fun with you guys. It's been a huge waste of my time planning all this. Didnt know the botting would be this bad.

[scenic current]

It has been an honor

[cunning heron]

This is just sad

[tribal estuary]

We made a good effort

[cunning heron]

It's was my pleasure to fight with you all

[tribal estuary]

I really enjoyed working with all of you

[full cape]

theres a sort of good atlas frame at -649,813

i dont think any of us made it

but we could use it

[tulip basin]

Did I see that correctly? Germany is building an atlas?

[scenic current]

nani

[tribal estuary]

?

[full cape]

impossible

[tulip basin]

"No Man's Sky guest art"

[tawny adder]

Omg

[tulip basin]

Someone must have submitted that

[scenic current]

uhhhhhhh

where?

[cunning heron]

what

[scenic current]

we must help them if they are doing it

[idle laurel]

It usually ruins it for a lot of smaller groups fosho. Your pixel art was beautiful, Ccowl. I don't think that part of the work is a waste. Ty for all the effort you put into it

[full cape]

but germany just destroys everything

[scenic current]

holy crap it's there

[cunning heron]

OMG

[tribal estuary]

What?!?!

[scenic current]

defend it

[tawny adder]

Good ending

[full cape]

THEYRE TURNING IT PURPLE

[scenic current]

do we have a template?

[tulip basin]

Wut

[cunning heron]

it's finished

[tulip basin]

🤷‍♂️

[full cape]

we must defend it

[tulip basin]

So incredibly fast lmao

[tawny adder]

Maintain it

[tribal estuary]

OMG

[scenic current]

can you give me an inv to their discord server?

[tribal estuary]

This is awesome!

[full cape]

makes us look like morons istg

[cunning heron]

nah

[tulip basin]

They've got 70k+ people + multiple popular german streamers

[idle laurel]

@scenic drum did you see this?

[full cape]

its perfect besides the random purple

[tulip basin]

Not sure

[robust forge]

WAIT

[scenic current]

we spend this entire time barely making the NMS letters and they just build the full atlas in like 5 minutes

[tulip basin]

I'll tey

[robust forge]

WE ARE THERE

OMFG

Lads

[scenic current]

@scenic drum Germany built the full atlas

[idle laurel]

I'm not sure how awesome it is being surrounded by "Fuck Spez" but it is what it is

[tribal estuary]

That literally felt like a movie plot

[cunning heron]

WE FUCKING DID IT

[idle laurel]

right?

[scenic current]

we didn't do it

but we shall maintain it

[full cape]

we work with what we got

[crisp copper]

@tulip basin Unapproved Discord invite

[tulip basin]

Oh

[scenic current]

rip

[idle laurel]

[tulip basin]

Whoops

[cunning heron]

yes, at all cost

[full cape]

what was that invite?

[tulip basin]

r/placeDE

[scenic current]

to the germany discord server

[idle laurel]

Is that the German server working on it?

[full cape]

oh right

[scenic current]

I found it myself

[tulip basin]

Ah kk xD

[tulip basin]

Yeah

The biggest german one

[crisp copper]

@cunning heron Unapproved Discord invite

[idle laurel]

https://discord.gg/placede

[robust forge]

Lads

This is win then

Right?

[scenic current]

NMS guest art voting

wait why is it purple on their template?

[robust forge]

Jeez

We didn't have the correct red

[full cape]

oh my god this community is massive

[cunning heron]

anyways, we won

[tawny adder]

Not yet

[idle laurel]

We can try making it red maybe?

[tawny adder]

We keep it maintained.

[tribal estuary]

Thank Germany!

[tulip basin]

I doubt that, the bots will remove it instantly

[lyric python]

Biased suggestion

[tribal estuary]

I think the red is fine

[full cape]

its times like these i wish i could read german

[tawny adder]

Google translate

[scenic current]

google translate

[full cape]

yeah but thatd be too easy

[tawny adder]

Then go take some lessons

[scenic current]

I can't wait for the timelapse, I wonder how fast they finished the atlas lol

[full cape]

itll appear on the video just instantly

[scenic current]

probably

but still

[full cape]

cudos to them blimey

[scenic current]

les go

[full cape]

victory

[tribal estuary]

✌️

[cunning heron]

Thank you guys I can go to sleep in peace

GG

[tribal estuary]

Gn

[tulip basin]

🗿

[scenic current]

I like how we didn't even know they were doing this

straight up movie revelation as it was discovered

we had all given up

its an actual movie plot

I cannot beleive this

[cunning heron]

plot twist

[tribal estuary]

I am a filmmaker and that literally followed the default plot arc

[scenic current]

exactly

[scenic drum]

What

[tribal estuary]

Yup

[scenic current]

top left of the canvas

look at it

[tribal estuary]

Can’t miss it

[scenic current]

-618, -970

[full cape]

literally

[scenic current]

ccowl was just gone lol

[scenic drum]

Im about to cry

I had literally just quit

[full cape]

we won boss its ok

[robust forge]

Me rn

[scenic current]

and it's not going anywhere this time

[robust forge]

Happy little bean

[scenic drum]

And thats the art I made in r/place forever

[tribal estuary]

I want one of those

[robust forge]

If you DM me your friend code I'll be able to take you to a system with them roaming around

I have a couple

[scenic current]

its adorable

[tribal estuary]

Did that work? I hardly ever use discord

[robust forge]

Ye

[scenic current]

I uhh

[scenic current]

mind if I join you?

[robust forge]

Sure

DM me

[scenic current]

👍🏼

[robust forge]

Yay I finally got familiar

[scenic current]

congradulations

[scenic drum]

Wow it pops so much in that spot

You can notice it zoomed out

[unkempt solstice]

Dark red is available if we want to do the shadow

[scenic current]

we can't do much

they are just following their template, we should probably just let it be

repair any damage that isn't immediately fixed

[idle laurel]

This is how the sphere inside the Altas should look btw. Not sure who's been editing it but doesn't look spherical on the canvas

[robust forge]

I mean if anyone is still in contact with them we could ask them about it and see it if it would be too much of a hassle

[robust forge]

Ye fair point

[scenic drum]

I think they edited it how they wanted it. Im fine with it

But someone could ask sure

[robust forge]

I can't remember who changed it but it was on our side

[rose prairie]

I did

[robust forge]

Oh there you go then

[rose prairie]

just saw, they removed the purple completely

that sucks

[robust forge]

It doesn't look bad

[tawny adder]

What was the purple for anyway

[rose prairie]

was supposed to be a darker red, but we only have one red, so I substituted

[scenic drum]

Gonna have to update that find us part in the subreddit now

[rose prairie]

maybe not the best decision

waitwaitwait

they added more colors?

When???

[patent hollow]

Yup just glad its up

wierdly r/place is broken for me

oh Damn is it over??

[robust forge]

No it shouldn't be

Pixels are still being placed

[verbal vine]

theres not any pixels being placed

[patent hollow]

I think its over

[verbal vine]

nvm its just super slow

[patent hollow]

I can't even load it

[scenic drum]

I just placed a pixel

[verbal vine]

its still going. you're probably just having connection issues

[robust forge]

It is going to end soon tho

Its a 72hour thing

How long has it been

[tribal estuary]

It was four days last year

[scenic drum]

Wow we got on it just in time then if it is.

[tribal estuary]

Right?

[robust forge]

Ye

Same this year

[tribal estuary]

I think it must be almost finished

[rose prairie]

they just added new colors, it can't be over

here's a new version with a proper red btw:

[robust forge]

So are they going to make it like that now?

[rose prairie]

someone would have to tell them

[scenic drum]

I wouldn't know how in their server

[rose prairie]

it also turned from a circle to a triangle now

@warm wagon talked to them

[warm wagon]

to who

uk?

[rose prairie]

germany

[warm wagon]

yoooo

whats the deal

i left the server i thought it was over

[warm wagon]

LETS FUCKING GO

[rose prairie]

the red part is kinda wrong

[warm wagon]

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

NO MANS SKY IN PLACE

[robust forge]

Yep

[warm wagon]

I CANT BELIEVE IT

[robust forge]

It happened

[rose prairie]

just took a while

[robust forge]

It's all the germans

Thank them

[rose prairie]

bureaucracy in germany is just hell

[scenic drum]

Hey you're the one that reached out to Germany to start with right?

[warm wagon]

yeah imma rejoin rq

[warm wagon]

yessir

[scenic drum]

Can you get them to update the atlas

[warm wagon]

whats wrong wit it

[scenic drum]

Here

[warm wagon]

oh shoot

[rose prairie]

first of: we have new colors not and can properly put 2 different reds in the core
secondly: the core is now a full piece of pizza

[warm wagon]

yeah...

[scenic drum]

I had literally just quit for good right before it happened

[warm wagon]

i had to rejoin so if anyone can talk to them rn thatd be good

[rose prairie]

I'm not on their server

[scenic drum]

What channel would it be in

[warm wagon]

no clue

open a diplomat ticket maybe

[scenic current]

I'm in their server

if you wan't me to try

[warm wagon]

please do

[scenic current]

How did you originally ask them?

[scenic drum]

And they are currently working on art next to us, maybe they can fix it fast

[rose prairie]

are they? looks more like an attack

[scenic drum]

Maybe place-tech support channel?

[robust forge]

What even was it

[rose prairie]

looks like a blob is attacking

I don't think that was anything

[robust forge]

Ah

[warm wagon]

it is something

newest design added to their flag

*one of the newest

[tribal estuary]

Okay

[rose prairie]

neat

[tribal estuary]

So we shouldn’t have to worry then

[warm wagon]

yeah its sanctioned by the germans

[robust forge]

Holy crap have you seen the Windows task bar lmao

[rose prairie]

I think they removed their auto army, because the atlas is getting "repaired" all the time

[robust forge]

Bro it's the furry from helluva boss

[warm wagon]

oh sweet i loved the taskbar from season 1 of place

[scenic current]

alrighty ima dm this to the person on their server to posted the nms thing in their guest art channel:

Hey, ich komme von No Man's Sky und frage mich, ob Sie Ihre Vorlage aktualisieren könnten. Wir haben eine neue Version erstellt, um die zusätzlichen Farben zu verwenden, die gerade hinzugefügt wurden.

Es tut uns leid, wenn Sie hierfür der falsche Ansprechpartner sind.

in english that's:
Hey, I'm from No Man's Sky and was wondering if you could update your template, we created a new version to use the extra colors that were just added.

Sorry if you are the wrong person to contact for this.

[warm wagon]

aight sounds like a plan

[rose prairie]

sounds very formal

[robust forge]

Maybe like say

[warm wagon]

and ofc the windows taskbar includes all the hallmarks of 2023, being amogus in the windows symbol, ornhub, DESTINY, and minecraft

[robust forge]

I apologise for any disturbance

Something like that as well

[warm wagon]

oh yeah good idea

[rose prairie]

Should I write something?

[scenic current]

wait

didn't you update the colors evo?

[rose prairie]

I did

[warm wagon]

OMG and they even put our atlas right at the bottom like we asked

[scenic current]

I swear you did, but i can't see it

[warm wagon]

so it looks like its striking the floor

dude this kicks absolute ass

[scenic current]

uhhhhh

am confussled

evo can you send me the latest png

[rose prairie]

comparison in big:

[scenic current]

I swear I saw a version with the bottom having more shades, but I guess i'm crazy

[frail junco]

Been working with r/hermitcraft and happened on the atlas. Well done!

[robust forge]

Add on to the end of the message "I apologise for any disturbance"

[scenic current]

okeh

[rose prairie]

Thank you! Would not've been possible without the germans. ANd I don't say that lightly

[robust forge]

Wait

[scenic current]

the atlas is fully pizzafied

[robust forge]

They reduced the time before each pixel place to 4 minutes

Or am I tripping

[warm wagon]

if we end place with a pizza atlas i will still be happy im ngl

[warm wagon]

it varies depending on how much that pixel is changed

[scenic current]

it seems they have

[warm wagon]

or is that just on pixelcanvas?

[rose prairie]

I mean, pizza atlas is still better than no atlas

[warm wagon]

bru who changed my nickname

[rose prairie]

I'll check in 4 seconds

[robust forge]

What does pizza atlas mean💀

[warm wagon]

bru who changed ur nickname

[rose prairie]

yeah, its 4 minutes now

wym?

[warm wagon]

WHAT IS HAPPENING

everyone's name is changed to their first letter with three dots at the end

just scroll through the server member list

[rose prairie]

This is what it looks like to me

[warm wagon]

anyways i hope they end place with having like 1 second between pixels

that'd be a fun way to end things

everyone gets to play like the admins have been playing this whole time

[tawny adder]

And then there goes our atlas

[warm wagon]

oh ok i figured it out

[robust forge]

Same

[scenic current]

I think... that would... not go well

[warm wagon]

discord has a "streamer mode" that activates automatically when you have obs open, which i had open for unrelated reasons

it censors names

[rose prairie]

For last hour it would be dope

[scenic drum]

The red at the bottom of the atlas was meant to be carbon crystals surrounding it, in case anyone was wondering about that.

[robust forge]

Bots would still dominate, so we'd be fine

[warm wagon]

it would be hilarious

[warm wagon]

oh i thoguht it was debris from the atlas hitting smth

[rain magnet]

What coords are we at?

[warm wagon]

plutonium crystals my beloved

i miss plutonium

[scenic current]

-618, -950 ish

breh who is expanding the red on the atlas so much

[scenic drum]

It guess it can be looked at like that. Glad I did it that way.

[robust forge]

Lemmium

[warm wagon]

i aint that old lol

[scenic drum]

I had the idea to try an give it a 3d look on the ground with that around it

[robust forge]

It's fine

[scenic drum]

Any luck with contacting them in the server

[robust forge]

It's still recognisable

[scenic current]

I sent them a dm, no response yet

https://github.com/PlaceDE-Official/place-overlay/raw/main/src/scripts/placeDE-overlay.user.js
this installs their overlay in tampermonke

[scenic drum]

If you search no mans sky in their server several messages pop up

Talking about us

[scenic current]

mhm I dm'd the person who posted it in the guest artworks channel

[scenic drum]

But i dont speak german so id have to translate

[tawny adder]

I wanna turn that chille flag from awhile back into a texas flag out of spite.

[robust forge]

Send an invite

[rose prairie]

I do

[scenic current]

you can just google r/placeDE and it comes up

[robust forge]

I'll do translate just tell me the messages you want me to put through translate

[robust forge]

In Google?

[scenic current]

mhmmm

[scenic drum]

I sent evo an invite

[scenic current]

we should try to fix the eye on the atlas

[warm wagon]

im tryna unpizzafy it

im barbenheimerorreddit rn

[robust forge]

What do you mean pizza, is it flat

[scenic current]

the eye is w i d e

[warm wagon]

they keep repizzafying it!!

[scenic current]

b u t w h y

they have a template they should be following

[scenic drum]

No point until they change it

[scenic current]

their template doesn't have it pizzafied

[scenic drum]

Oh

[rose prairie]

Alright, I sent a request for representative

might be a while before that happens though. Most of them are probably asleep

[scenic current]

you also have to set your nickname in their server to have the NMS tag

[rose prairie]

already did

[scenic current]

oh yea, that's probably why the person I dm'd hasn't responded

breh who is pizzifying the atlas, it goes against their template

[rose prairie]

Reminds me: I probably should go to bed too

[scenic drum]

This translates in to this

[scenic current]

yep, I saw that one

[scenic drum]

At least one person knows our correct version

[robust forge]

Aight imma head to sleep ping me if any important stuff happens. Goodnight

[scenic current]

looks like the atlas eye is being fixed a bit

[scenic current]

gn

[scenic drum]

Im about to be gone for an hour. This felt amazing today.

[tribal estuary]

Goodnight

[scenic drum]

Oh i think its being fixed now

[rain magnet]

I'll be here helping maintain the atlas

[zenith jolt]

Alright! Now this is what i love to wake up to! Well done!

[wary gate]

Hi! Here 100 guys live trying to help!

[tardy sapphire]

hey guys you need help with the artwork?
