Oh, it definitely wouldn’t be the same - five seconds with a history book could tell you that - it’s just a question of how quickly we’d go savage 😅

That’s true, but one thing I liked about r/place was the evolution of designs - for example a massive flag would appear early on, be fought over and then the flag would shrink to a more defensible size and the rest of the flag became a different thing. The time lapse was fascinating because of this.

The culture here is more cooperative and less troll-y (trollful? trollesque?) so I’d hope/expect to see more collaborative solutions. I know once I’d helped place the removed cars logo I threw my pixels into helping build unfinished designs or repair existing ones.

Ah, that’s more interesting than what I had in mind; I just meant how many pixels a user placed that weren’t overwritten.

Run an extra day or two, so everyone gets some weekend and week day? Between shift workers and countries with different weekends, Sat/Sun is still a workday for many.

Thursday-Monday feels good, perhaps with one of the modifications discussed here halfway through.

Thanks for this, now I’m interested in all the other stats, like number of users per instance, %age of instance users per instance, # surviving pixels, %age pixels surviving, overall heatmap (esp. most fought over area), chart of cumulative placements over time, etc.

Way less vandalism. I noticed the don’t got erased on the “don’t that on me” and I think that’s now gone entirely, probably because it’s now associated with Tea Partiers in the states.

Alan Schaaf created Imgur while he was at uni and he never worked for Reddit, but I believe it was made for Reddit primarily (Reddit didn’t support uploading images until 2016).
