This image is the whole canvas. To whoever planned this. Hats off my friend, it's brilliant!

It was Rubius. Originally the colour pallete was changed to black, white and grey but Reddit removed everything except white when people started writing fuck spez.

It was clearly planned. It was quickly stencilled out by a network of bots / people using a script. It is a precise font size and spacing.

Once it started, well, everybody else understood the assignment, you could watch it filling out in real time.

Damn good bit of sabotage. I knew that something would be waiting at the end before the admins could stop it

It was actually the r/placeDE community. Two of our designers quickly cobbled it together in Photoshop and then shared the final design with a bunch of communities and streamers, including Papaplatte, Rubius, placeFR, placeNL and others.

I'm just going to venture a guess now that at the completion of this event, they're not going to have the usual video progression montage that they have done in years past. There would be far too many hard cuts for it to be as sterile as they'd like while still showing the progress through the event.

I'm sure someone else was grabbing screen grabs of the event for the duration. Looking forward to watching all the FUCK SPEZ

Funny Fuck Spez compilation (YOU WILL LAUGH 100%)

[–] genoxidedev1@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

They don't need to cut anything so far they posted every days timelapse mostly complete and didn't censor the fuck spez messages.

I could imagine them cutting the very end out though.

@DarthYoshiBoy they don't seem to censor anything on youtube compilations

They've been having no issue posting the progression clips to TikTok

Now, how many of the people that helped to do this are actually willing to leave the platform?

[–] FixedFun@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

-20000000, yeah it goes to negatives

[–] genoxidedev1@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago

Was happy to help! Thank you to everyone that contributed to this beautiful piece of art🫡

If I'm Spez, aren't I just laughing at all the people who are still using my platform to do this? They are still getting ad revenue from all those page visits right?

Not if they're using ad blockers.
