    A lot of people are commenting, asking if I'm going to remake this video for 2022. The answer is no, I don't think place is as organic or interesting this time around, although it is still fun. Other people out there will no doubt make similar videos, once the dust has settled I'll share my favorite here.
  • >makes German flag >immediately expands into neighboring France You cant make this shit up
  • @LomiKo
    I'm still salty that I missed this
  • @IvailoStoychev
    This image of r/place should be a physical image and to be put into a time capsule to be opened 50 years from now
  • @taureon_
    "Germany felt bad for invading france the fourth time in mordern history" lmao hahahaha
  • @brickbrother11
    I find it just hilarious that the German flag engulfed and invaded the French flag, but then created the European Union flag in the middle.

    When Germany takes over France and they retreat.
  • @kyy3724
    "germany invaded france, and france escaped to the north" sounds familiar
  • @luukas6063
    "The german flag was the second to appear after Argentina" Finland's flag to the right of Argentina: Am I a joke to you?
  • Towards the end of /r/place the Void disguised itself as Rainbow Road and tried to take over the American Flag, causing Rainbow Road to team up with American Flag to defend it. That was my favourite part of the whole thing, the defenses and alliances.
  • I actually kinda like the idea of the void. It sounds so ominous, and it rallied people together to fight back against it

    This reminds me of 2b2t, a completely free and fully explorable server on Minecraft that, like the place, had many colonies and wars and tribes and stuff. The map also had a huge water corner that was over a mile in Minecraft blocks wide. 2b2t still exists, but has a non freedom server.

    Does no one realize r/place is said or means 'Our Place'
  • @Centzzzz
    i like how millions of peoples works together to form something cool .. like the German flag invansion haha
  • It absolutely blows my mind that individuals, clicking once every 5 minutes, can create the complex stuff that was made.
  • @snooderblade315
    Im suprised that you didnt cover anything about the great Swedish, Norwegian and Dutch Union that took up the entire northern part of the canvas.
  • @Saztog1425
    Jokes aside, this entire project is genuinely one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
