==== Early times ====
==== Early attempt ====
The trio, along with Mihai3, RT and others, were waiting for the subreddit to open its canvas. Immediately as it opened, the users found a good spot for drawing the trollface, the first pixel being placed by Edward at coordinates <code>172;267</code>. RT helped organizing the members to ease the drawing by creating 2 channels for the discussions regarding r/place, #place-general and #place-info. Meanwhile, the r/Romania Discord server members were aware about the event, but very unorganized and without a well-elaborated plan for drawing. Eventually they found the trollface and decided to draw a flag close to it.

40 minutes after the canvas opened, the Romanian trollface was griefed by r/Romania members who wanted to create the Romanian flag, and by strangers who just wanted to delay the progress. In order to keep in touch with the Romanian redditors, Edward created an additional Discord server called PlaceRO, in order to unite them with OKPR members and thus to form an alliance. After an hour, it was decided to abandon the drawing of the trollface and focus on expanding and protecting the Romanian flag.<ref>https://new.reddit.com/r/Romania/comments/154tm8f/salut_haide%C8%9Bi_pe_rplace/</ref>

Later on, Romanian Youtuber [https://www.youtube.com/@iRaphahell IRaphahell] would join the fight for the Romanian flag, bringing with him a huge number of subscribers that aggresively conquered many neighboring artworks and therefore disturbing the already fragile balance between the other subreddits.<ref name="live_rapha_1">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24l5hz5fLT8 </ref> While he was ordering his army what to draw on canvas via his livestream<ref name="live_rapha_1" />, Edward and other users spread the news about PlaceRO in order to keep in touch and to create temporary aliances with neighboring communities that were attacked, guaranteeing a frail peace. Thanks to a quick response from Romanians and a well-handled coordination, the Romanian flag got very large proportions and it was consolidated and refurbished much better than last year, and also, PlaceRO server reached over 200 members in a very short time, with a peak 45 members on voice channel #coordonare.
