I saw a github repo for a bot used in last year’s r/place with a long list of forks. It’s likely re-used this year as well. They couldn’t even address the spam bots so it’s unlikely they could put more effort for a short event.

Some Redditors even suspect that some Reddit admins themselves created those bots para mamburaot.

Di na ako magugulat na they condone bots. Sus yung statement nila sa r/palce na “we are working on mitigating with botting”

The circus just keeps circusing themselves

Yung pinaka-suss talaga was the fact na we’re having it again this early when it’s supposed to occur like once every four years.

Tapos hindi mo ma-gets duality ng ibang redditors. Galit na galit sa pinoy pride at “peenoise” pero akala mo laking kawalan hindi makapaglagay ng flag sa isang transparent na pautot. Hindi pa marunong magbasa ng pinned thread na may pinned comment. Uulanin sub ng mga tanong na kung ano balak at wala man lang daw ba nationalism (my Relay is still working so I get notifs from reports).
