This event was an absolute blast to participate in. Thank you to Frxzt, EvoEvo, and many more (who I didn't even know before GD place) for contributing objects to the ice cave (you can briefly see it at 2:17 and 9:27). I'm pretty happy with how the ice cave turned out, though I wished I could've expanded left or right. Hope to see another event like this in the future :)

deleted? But it was still there in the end

@@arhia6106 They aren't saying saying that the dash orb was deleted, they're saying that the block that was supposed to block the secret way was removed, because someone thought it was misplaced and deleted the block.

[@guidinglight9082]

Explanation: There was a block placed by an ILL member in the way of the dash orb, keeping it impossible - Only another ILL member deleted that block, believing that it had been misplaced and that the dash orb was not there.

[@brickfootbuilds]

As a fan of r/place, and similar projects (like Ludwig's KZbin banner), this video was great! I have never played GD and really only know about it because of the incredibly hard levels that videos have been made about, and through Samifying, who also plays my main game, Trackmania. This has really imspired me to start playing! (Side note, I was really expecting an AI Obama voice lol)

The joe army was one of the funnest thing I have ever done, glad my friends and I made a little mark in this. Shadowian is the mastermind. Joe army forever!

[@Spongyboi897]

I've decided to write a short demonstration of the Joe's lore, this is the result: The Joe-ians are a special type of GD-type species, it's appearance mainly consists of a square block with a smiley face and white limbs, the evolution of the Joe-ians started as a small block, but a couple of users decorated it by placing said smiley faces and white limbs onto it, and thus the Joe-ians have been born Soon after the birth of their species, the Joe-ians decided to grab onto nearby objects and eventually adventured into (what they have called) the "Greater Beyonds", but they have unfortunately tried to fight and kill eachother

I don't play GD, but this is lowkey really cool. I always loved events like r/place, watching people work together to build and destroy different structures on a great, open expanse.

[@diaso7029]

One can interpret the entity Joe and it's evolution as a microcosm of society at large. With this perspective, there are valuable lessons to be learned from viewing their brief existence. The society of "Joe" was founded on the principles of equality and cooperation. All members of the society were given the same name, "Joe," to symbolize their belief in the inherent worth and dignity of every individual. At first, the society of Joe flourished. They worked together to build a community that was based on mutual respect and support. They shared resources and labored to create a society that was free from poverty and want. However, as the society of Joe grew, internal conflicts began to arise. Some members felt that their contributions were not being recognized or valued equally. Others felt that the group was not moving fast enough to achieve their goals. As these tensions grew, the society of Joe became increasingly divided. Some members formed factions and began to compete with one another for resources and power. This competition eventually turned violent, as different factions began to fight for control. The society of Joe was torn apart by these internal conflicts. What had once been a harmonious community was now a place of strife and mistrust. The founding principles of equality and cooperation were forgotten, as members turned on one another in a desperate struggle for survival. In the end, the society of Joe was unable to sustain itself. It was torn apart by its own internal divisions, and its members were left to pick up the pieces and try to rebuild their lives. The legacy of the society of Joe serves as a cautionary tale, reminding us of the dangers of internal conflict and the importance of working together to build a better world. Rip Joe(s). You will be missed, and the lessons you taught us will not be for naught.

[@NicoVR2763]
