      As far as they don’t destroy anything, its okay. I already feel this canvas was more inclusive of smaller arts and just continued around them ( instead of overriding them )

        They destroyed multiple pieces. wrt myself, they cut off all but the chest and head of Myne from Ascendance of a Bookworm, and there was an Alolan Rapidash they tried to take too. They attempted to destroy the pride banner as well, as late as 4:30PM EST yesterday.

          Sorry to hear that. Since this was the first event and the moderators itself said technical issues prevented from reading and taking action in a lot of spam reports, i hope the next time would be lot better.

            Ya, there definitely is some work to be done. There was one of those confederate snakes on the board for a while too - the “don’t treat on me” one that modern domestic terrorist groups enjoy. It ended up getting taken down by the community, drawn over and erased underneath the pride-coloured paint roller in the top corner :)

            I hope to see the next canvas be better and more active ^^

        I saw ur call out for people to assist, the bottom right and right of that border was me and one or two others and they were awesome.

        Thought it wouldn’t last the journey but it’s still the first thing I see when I look at that board. Good idea!

        Hey! I helped with the left and top border until it was complete. Definitely super clean

      I just like that there were two separate Aphex Twin logos there.

      I thought that at first but then realized I think it’s because the communities respected each other. It’s kind of endearing that way, like we all belong here and there’s enough space for all of us.

        That’s a great way of putting it.

        Although, when you have millions of people in a platform it’s hard to prevent playful “wars” and “games” between people which works like chain-reaction and everybody starts doing anything or streamers like XQC realizing they can make content out of this and putting their own “minions” aka viewers to make chaos.

        Sometimes, some things are just not in your control.

        I felt that way the whole time… until I saw the Stardew Valley banner. 2 people altered the name by placing 2 pixels each: [email protected], and [email protected]. I don’t know why they would do that, but they did! It’s a bit disappointing honestly.

      There were a few Kiwis that tried to give them a hand at the end after we had 3 kiwis and our flag done.

      Ya, that flag was insanely big. I would have rather worked on some Australian cultural icons like Bluey, Steve Irwin and Valtteri Bottas.

      But that’s a whole instance, not a community

      I love that he was labeled “SHONK” for most of it. Also kudos to the person/group that went around incorrectly labeling things.

        it was actually a sign from someone with the username “scew” that was there before the blahaj got started. for a while the people from blahaj couldn’t decide between changing it or removing it, so it went through a lot of iterations, but it seems they deleted it entirely in the end.

        a shame tbh, that they picked a spot someone else had already worked in, and couldn’t handle it being in the middle of their stuff.

    I dunno, but I spent my morning drinking coffe and putting my name in an empty space and it’s still there. So I feel like that’s a win.
