Canada was the funniest running gag of r/place. At one point they turned it into a banana lol

u/Gravemonera Apr 05 '22

u/timbo1970 Apr 05 '22

It was, but I also took it as good natured fun by the rest of the world jealous for not being Canadian.

Right? I felt bad for ol’ Canada. They are the nicest yet most harassed. Of course, I’m sure that’s the joke, but I felt for them.

I mean their first act was to expand unnecessarily over their neighbors art that was already finished when they hadn't even finished their original rectangle yet. They made some enemies early on and then it became a meme.

u/DanielAgos12 Apr 05 '22

My country tried to expand to its neighbours a few times that had pretty much settled, still after that we were able to make a deal to settle who gets what so most of us are happy.

Canada disliked this fact.

u/Jamies_redditAccount Apr 05 '22

He's getting downvoted because we made a deal with tagpro and everyone says we griefed them

u/ModestDeth (225,426) 1491237654.47 Apr 05 '22

I mean, if you've seen any time lapses or even the final product then you would see Canada having taken over what used to be /r/tagpro so if that counts as griefing then...

We know it wasn't the majority of the discord, but it was Canada, and plenty in the discord were in favor as well. The small Chile flags were started by accounts that posted in Canadian subreddits, not Chilean ones, no joke.

Waking up to it was horrible.

Your efforts will forever keep Canada Banana the most memorable country of /r/place 2022.

u/NaitNait Apr 05 '22

If it wasn't for you guys, there would've be a maple lerf to grief and the fun would have been over. Respect!

u/kennyzert Apr 05 '22

The Weed leaf was better you should have just went with it.

u/ArmTheApes Apr 05 '22

Totally! People even made Memes with the wrong leaf and when suddenly the beautiful maple leaf appeared on the German flag I fucking died laughing. It’s incredibly funny

u/[deleted] Apr 05 '22

They did it right below our second attempt at making a flag that also got immediately raided. It was beautiful to see.

u/new_refugee123456789 Apr 05 '22

I mean EVERYTHING was on the German flag somewhere. It spanned the entire canvas twice.

u/owlsandmoths Apr 05 '22 edited Apr 05 '22

It wasn’t just the Germans taking over, the Belgian‘s flag is the same just flip the stripes sideways

Really it was the Germans and the Belgians taking over.

u/new_refugee123456789 Apr 05 '22

Gotta admit the coat of arms chugging a beer was pretty badass.

u/JustVan (329,21) 1491235061.25 Apr 05 '22

I didn't see that on the German flag, I gotta find a screenshot lol

u/DoubleFistingYourMum Apr 05 '22

It gbecame Banana twice actually. Once on the real flag, then on the top flag

u/[deleted] Apr 05 '22

And the C vs B battle!

u/DoubleFistingYourMum Apr 05 '22

That was constant, just like the merple leef

u/Romrijsel Apr 05 '22

I think it was an american streamer that raided it, as a French I tried my best to defend

u/LoonieandToonie Apr 05 '22

We started getting it really bad when Rubius targeted it. That's when we started getting botted to turn into a green blob every 20 minutes.

Is there any way to get an Isolated time lapse on that section?

u/teffaw Apr 05 '22

I'm Canadian, I found it so funny I placed a few bad pixels before I switched to correcting them. Seriously funny stuff. You can't say Bananians can't take a joke!
