The r/place Romanian Trollface: Difference between revisions

There was a second attempt at recreating the OKPR symbol, although there are currently no direct evidences or media files to prove it. One thing for sure is that the second iteration would have been recreated near the Foxhole artwork, as some members have suggested. While working on the first attempt, there were already some Reddit users creating another pixelated trollface at coordinates <code>650,620</code>,<ref name="2022_atlas_5" /> that eventually would be casted under the shadow of the [https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbets r/wallstreetbets] artwork.<ref name="2022_atlas_7">2022.place-atlas.stefanocoding.me/#/7/650/620/10</ref> It was also discussed to draw the trollface somewhere near the transgender flag, which laid a few pixels above the Ukrainian flag, but this didn't materialize due to the high risk of being griefed again.

Unexpectedly, the server membership count grew at an exponential rate, bringing with it both Romanian and foreign members from tens of different comunities and subreddits involved in r/place. Some of the Romanian communities that helped were r/placeromania, the PixelRO Discord server, the IRaphahell fandom and r/Romania. The server focused on maintaining the Romanian flag and protecting the artworks of the allied communities, without it being easy for them. The server faced many challenges, such as the Brazilian and 'Fuck spez' assault of the first flag or Bratishkinoff griefing the second flag. The server also got much more popularity thanks to Romanian streamers like IRaphahell and Highman, although they weren't helping the PlaceRO's cause.
