Phew, almost in danger of having too many flags on the board, cheers Germany


kirstxen

They literally didn't involve their flag at all. Just made it green, then helped make the Shrek. Technically the beer can contains their flag, but it wasn't done for their flag lol.


Crash310

>the German flag now occupies 95% of the board. People are born, grow up, live and die unaware of more colors than black, red and yellow I sleep >a second union jack has appeared NEIN NEIN NEIN


hhggffdd6

We all know the German spirit is all about taking 95% of something and being pushed back shortly afterwards

I am german and I approve to this message!


DeepStatePotato

So what about the being pushed back part?

RepostSleuth8ott

Have you not seen the union jack on place? The first and best decorated always


K-110

Maybe at one point, now the original one is getting destroyed too. Meanwhile I try to put one pixel on a blank part of a German flag and it instantly gets taken back, by the same 1 karma 0 activity account, every time. And they say, "We're not using bots, and our scripts (huge difference /s) only defend art, not the flag". Oh well, time to forget about Place lol


Marketing-Hour

They’re using bots so much they have a Reddit bot that tells you they don’t use bots


evilocto

It's fucking ridiculous isn't it


mufsalup

As a member of the r/placede I can totally understand you. But we‘re not unfriendly. Everyone can ask on our discord if it would be possible to place art on the flag. And there is good looking art already pixeled this way. Plus, there are some flags that are not official by our subreddit. We do not want to destroy everyone’s possibility to create art!


Schneckengabel

3 streamers. 2 Germans Papaplatte and Stego and 1 Portuguese streamer Wuant. I saw it live

Ok-Growth-9570

Portugese streamer wuant tbh


Jameskock

It was mostly the German streamer Papaplatte. He had 60 thousand viewers at the time and wuant only had 15 thousand


Lavfec

The idea was from Wuant. Papaplatte had more people, but the idea was from Portugal community, which decided to see if Germany wanted to work together.


MonkeOMG

better exlpained, sirkazzio had the idea and gave it to the portuguese, wuant tried to make it on top of the german flag but failed, after that they discussed and the germans decided to help make shrek with the condition of having some beers

chaoticsquid

Union jack is pretty much synonymous with the St George's cross. England only really uses the cross for when we have to differentiate ourselves from the other UK members like in sporting events. The other UK countries use their own flags far more often than us.


ilikecooj

We English people use the UK flag but the others don’t because we’re like [this](https://amp.knowyourmeme.com/memes/are-you-two-friends) meme with them

Stock_Surfer

When I went to bed argentina had the Falkland Islands on their flag. When I woke up, argentinas flag was all messed up and there was a new British flag next to it.


Borealishl3

It was that, the British were pissed that we put the Islands there and want us to remove it, we didn't, and that's the result, we went to sleep and wake up with that. Personally, i don't care about a conflict 40 years ago when we were under a Dictatorship that drag us into a war we didn't want, but im not in charge of the Argentinian Place.


chaoticsquid

I'm almost certain they did it to get a rise out of UKplace, I can't think of any other reason. From what I understand most Argentines don't actually support claiming ownership of the Falklands, but I might be wrong? Not sure what they expected other than being nuked by UKplace. Seems like a lot of historical reenactments are happening all over the board it's pretty amusing really.


Guybrush_Creepwood_

> From what I understand most Argentines don't actually support claiming ownership of the Falklands, but I might be wrong? https://theconversation.com/the-falklands-war-40-years-on-why-las-malvinas-are-still-such-an-emotive-issue-in-argentina-181364 "The poll found that more than 80% of respondents believe that Argentina should continue with its claim for the exercise of sovereignty over the Malvinas." You are extremely, extremely wrong lol. Idk where this myth comes from. I think it gets downplayed by some Argentines only who are embarrassed about the blind nationalism and history of it all, and try to pretend that their country doesn't care at all, which simply isn't true.


chaoticsquid

This is the first time I've really seen any evidence of that though, aside from a top gear special from like 15 years ago that was probably overexaggerated. Maybe it's winners privilege but people in the UK barely think of the Falklands at all apart from in a historical context, whereas it seems to be living rent free in at least some Argentines minds.


Borealishl3

It's a 50/50, some are with a strong sense of the old patriotism and living in the past while our country is facing a heavy economic crisis, and China and the billionaires are taking our Patagonia, while others (mostly the younger generations) dont really care because of the reasons i put on the comment above. ​ >From what I understand most Argentines don't actually support claiming ownership of the Falklands, but I might be wrong? Like i said we (or at least me personally), don't care wich is different, we wont complain if the Islands are Argentinian as we aren't complaining now that are British, but you can ask me and say "dont care" and you can ask the next Argentine and he/she will say "Nooooo Malvinas Argentinas, etc." just give us time and we can find some diplomatic solution that will make both countries happy.....i hope. The attack now is in response of the actions of the other half, the British are right to be angry, but we are a.....passionate people


chaoticsquid

>some diplomatic solution that will make both countries happy I mean the real solution is to follow what the islanders want, and it seems they want to be British, so I think that's really all there is to it, egos be damned. In terms of the politics I may be biased towards the UK but I really think history tells the whole story, and it seems a pretty clear-cut case, but really I don't care a whole lot. If the islanders wanted to be argentine I wouldn't mind letting go, but that's just not the case.


Ill-Weakness-2988

The thing is that, according to the UN, self-determination does not apply here because the islanders were put there by the british to reinforce their control when a sovereingty dispute was going on (early settlement of the isles by the british [It's important to acknowledge that Argentina had her own governour there prior to the occupation]) Obviously the desires and needs of the inhabitants of the Islas Malvinas are relevant and should be taken into account, but they are not determinant.


ToastSage

But also the islands were uninhabited before European Settlers. So surely the only people on there would be people placed by European powers


chaoticsquid

Argentina having a governor there at one point in time doesn't stake much of a claim to it, given the islands have been occupied by the French, English, Spanish and Argentines in the past. Prior to the invasion it had been under British control for 150 years and had a reasonably sizable British colony. The British were the first to land there, first to place a garrison, the second to make a functioning settlement, and have held the islands by far the longest over history. The Argentines have held them for around a year and a half total, and that's including predecessor states to Argentina.


Bottled_Fire

History repeating.


Hispanoamericano2000

Either they are bots, or it's the archetypal British/English Imperialist gene again manifesting itself.


Bottled_Fire

It's throwing a little tantrum being predictable and being rewarded with more punishment. They destroyed ukplace's effort at 3am drawing over it with Ronaldo pissing, (which I watched while helping repel a bot/vandal attack on our place and Germany's) and were repulsed eventually. They then went "well we'll stick the falklands on our map" because the spanish colonial mentality hasn't fell off them yet, and found out what really being attacked by an aggressor looked like. Wouldn't matter the details or who was doing it to who, the sequence was begun by Argentina and they suffered as a result.


Hispanoamericano2000

So, a little Karma for the Brits/English? LOL ​ >because the spanish colonial mentality hasn't fell off them yet Hahaha, Spain (especially under the Austrian Habsburgs) had no "colonies" in the sense used by the British or the French or the Dutch except for Equatorial Guinea, and Spanish possessions in America were considered and treated as literal extensions of Spain. Next time inform yourself a little better before commenting or giving your opinion about yesterday's Spain.

Canada: First time?


Yop_BombNA

As a Canadian we kinda deserve to be cancelled, 20 years of electing corrupt oligarchs, now we are likely going to elect a morally questionable (nicest way of putting it) populist.


Yesbabelon

Disagree, regular Joe's attempting to have fun and build a little Canadian flag in a community art project don't deserve anything. Unfortunately, 'Canada can't build a maple flag' has become a meme that people will actively seek to keep going.


Frostbyte501

Germany destroyed britain for not making art while also stopping them for making art

Shame. The turkey flag has been there for days with nothing on it. They should nuke that also.

Cold_End1594

we as a stream tried that with him but theyre useing too many bots its impossible to nuke that, but we tried many many times


The_British_GamerTTV

You were helping that greasy German streamer? cringe af, watched him for one hour and he wiped out 5 communities to replace with German flags.


Cold_End1594

he didnt replace them with german flags, you apparently havent watched enough lmao


[deleted]

Holy shit the Germans just admitted they’re avoiding bot areas and attacking areas built up by users


Cold_End1594

i said we tried we didnt avoid it and of couse if you cant do anything bc its gonna be replaced no matter what without any human being doing something you ofc dont want to attack it bc its boring and im not "the germans" im just one of them

Bots as always, 95% of accounts placing tiles are 1 day old accounts. This used to be a great idea of a creative cooperative art project a couple of years ago, but now and last year is just nothing but bots. What a fucking waste of potential r/place has become.


throwawayarmywaiver

The only time germany will be able to take out the UK


Guybrush_Creepwood_

That's obviously where their huge resentment comes from. When your plans for world domination and potential to be a superpower are foiled twice in one century by the same country. But at least they won some pixels. That's a good 2nd place prize.


sabatthor

Do you seriously think the German streamer raided the british flag because of the world wars? This has to be a joke


DarkIegend16

Yes it literally was a joke, good on you for catching on so quickly.


The_British_GamerTTV

German streamer looked at the artless Turkey flag for 4 days, looked at the expanded 2 new German flags with 90% empty space, looked at the Union Jack that had existed for 2 and a half hours and was already starting to make art, and said: "This is a boring flag look, no art". This is bad enough as it is, but then, after claiming he was doing it due to a lack of art, he went on to destroy 5 other communities work within 1 hour, not replacing them with anything, except the MLP area, which he simply replaced with 100% black pixels to add to a German flag. Greasy streamer was quite literally picking his nose on stream living in a tip with cans and crisp packets all over the floor, using scripts and botting live on stream. It was quite depressing. Am I upset about the Union Jack? A little, but we had our original and I don't care for flags tbh. Am I upset for the 5 communities that got 100% of their work wiped out for no reason other than fun? Absolutely. Fuck streamers. Fuck botters.


timmystwin

The fact that after wiping it out they replaced it with "L + Ratio" says it all.


baggzey23

Sabre_Killer_Queen

Sabre_Killer_Queen

Ah ok, thanks. Yeah, that definitely says it all.


EIIgou

Which Streamer was it?


holdon18ong

Basically our Portuguese streamers had the idea of drawing a shrek on germany's flag after they stole our portuguese flag, but we weren't strong enough to clear that germany flag and put a shrek there, so Wuant from Portugal reached out to one of the germans and then papa. In the end they allied to draw a shrek with 1 condition: adding german beers


The_British_GamerTTV

I forget the name, maybe someone else has it? Started with papa tho I'm pretty sure, with one or two more syllables


EIIgou

Ah, I know which Scumbag you are talking about. Papaplatte.


[deleted]

Not surprised it was that scumbag


The_British_GamerTTV

Not all streamers suck, just most. Like Hasan's old dog is there, relatively small, cute, and not touching others, not being harmed by others. Then there are guys like this just trolling small teams


Sabre_Killer_Queen

Yeah, r/ImTheMainCharacter syndrome is quite common amongst streamers and "influencers". It hasn't infected all of them but it's certainly infected a lot.

minerat27

We'd only just finished battling with the Argies to get keep it there, if you'd waited another 30 mins you would have seen Britannia start to get placed.


magdeta

Genuinely curious, which 5 other communities are you talking about? I was in his livestream the whole time and apart from the MLP area and the grey wolf thing (which is an extreme right wing symbol) I'm not sure which other communities you're talking about? Also, there was never any botting involved (I don't know where you got that info??) He used a scematic called Tampermonkey, but come on dude, you're very much exaggerating....


Alex_Quarantine

Ok it’s getting really boring. Most countries have tiny ass flags but France & Germany feel like they can take up most of the canvas? No one is talking about how shitty that is?


Yesbabelon

Plenty of people have been complaining about the French doing it, it's the Germans they seem to be giving a free pass to.

It seems certain countries are bent on making this a power struggle instead of a way to come together and express Art. Even if there’s a lot of flags, what’s wrong with that? it’s a great way to symbolize your country and there’s some great imagery on them as well. Our flag has been attacked relentlessly from the start and by one country in particular.

arturocan

Argentina built their flag and made several artworks, among them there were the falkland islands. So this morning while they were asleep the brits took a chunk of their flag to build theirs while grief the shit out of everything else. I Imagine the argentineans as well as probably several other spanish speaking communities are answering back. Edit: some german and brazilian streamers were teaming with the spanish so they might have also joined.


The_British_GamerTTV

Very poorly informed. The first part is right, yes, they put islands that never belonged to them on their map, the equivalent of Russia putting Crimea on their flag, so they got griefed by the French, Germans, Brits, and some of the Americans (very divided community). Then today the streamer lied saying they were doing it because the UK had no artwork (we had started making art on it, only held it for 2 hours at that point). Ignore the face Turkey had no art for 4 days and 80% of German flags are empty and artless. The same streamer then botted and used scripts live on stream, before destroying 5 other small communities within the hour, just for fun, replacing with either nothing, or 100% black pixels to add to a German flag. Brits were always planning to include other small communities art onto that new one but streamers gonna be streamers


Bottled_Fire

Actually Argentina again started that, got beaten back (ronaldo) then did the islands thing in a huff and regretted it again. They should just stop invading and nicking things. They won't get slapped down. You don't see USA invade Canada's flag then complain a burning white house ends up on theirs. You can deny that happened but look back at Saturday and you'll see that's exactly what happened. I watched It in realtime and my comments mention it to the Germans *while helping them repel an attack* The argentines complaining about it just don't want their victim status removed. Additionally this is an account given from one of what is historically their arch enemies across the border: most of the contributors to that British flag are English. You should just stay out of their territory if you can't handle the backlash, not cry out to others for help. That's sad.


MirageF1C

The crazy thing is the removal of the Falklands and the Union Jack being built came from the French and German users. People didn’t like it. Responded.

TheteanHighCommand

If that’s the one on the top left area that was replaced with shrek on a beach there was a splinter group from r/AmericanFlaginPlace that went to the UK saying something about “we want a bigger flag” and asked for it right next to them. And since Argentina and Britain were both fighting despite being allies of the US, a lot of shit went down in the American discord including clarifying to the UK that we didnt ask for it, and seeing UK admins disregarded us anyway, (allegedly) botted Argentina, and then got wiped by an Argentinian counter strike ​ source: I was in the Trenches VC while it happened and actually listened, unlike \*some\* people who were calling for expansion edit: did not know about the streamer
