BTW, has above heard of the r/place happening on Lemmy right now? Somebody has made a Lemmy copy that I stumbled across a few days ago but I forgot what it’s called… The website ended in .ooo
There’s still a lot of empty space to be filled, you can join here canvas.toast.ooo :-)
Oh great! We should advertise it on the different communities. When’s it live until?
For the whole weekend, but it seems it might stay up longer because the canvas is pretty big for the number of active users right now.
Why final moments? What happened to it?
To end Place, they remove all colours except white. This way, Place dies a natural death as soon as the last non-white pixel turns white.
Anyone know how the giant Fuck Spez in the end was able to place black pixels? It was particularly noticable around the U.
I would guess that it was made before the deleting part, like a template.
No if you look at the time line the deleting already started and they somehow managed to place black pixels for the f u and part of the c while everyone else was only able to place white. So my guess is a) obviously there were scripts involved and b) they figured out how to circumvent the place only white pixels of the undocumented api
For a short time of (i think) around 1 hour it was possible to place grayscale pixels, which were used to create the outline, after that only white pixels were allowed but the already created outlines remained
