The third-order scheme, B1e

Written at stage B1, leg B1e, 2026-10-11. 197 themes in 21 families; 14 are on the rare tier (seen in one room, or in rooms that tell one episode). Not frozen: stage B2 tightens it against fresh readers.

How to read a theme. Place each second-order theme on one theme. Add a second or a third only where a concept of its own supports it, and say why one does not carry it. The gate is must show, must not show and decide when both. A discriminator is the question that separates a theme from a near neighbour. A family is an index of themes a reader would confuse, and nothing else. Exemplars are participants' words, with the room and the concept id; rivals are other concepts of the same room that also pass the gate.

G01 April Fools in the sub

• T3-001 staging April Fools fake news: Members post their own April Fools fakes in the sub as if true (news, leaks, patches, releases, claims) and play along with them, fall for them or reveal them.
• T3-023 running an April Fools takeover: The sub is turned into something else for April Fools, by its moderators or by the sub as a body (renamed, restyled, given new rules or a new subject, or one sub's joke raid on another), and members play inside it.

• T3-095 testing others' April Fools claims: Members work out whether a claim they did not make is an April Fools joke: a moderators' or company's announcement, a public figure's post, a news story, another room's claim, or real news taken for a joke.
• T3-097 switching off the prank styling: Members get past the sub's April Fools look or rules: turning the style off, working around it, reporting what it breaks, asking for it gone, or the moderators switching it back.
• T3-100 keeping April Fools changes afterwards: Members ask that something made for April Fools outlive the day: the sub's flairs, styling or name, or a company's joke feature made real.

G03 where the planning happens

• T3-014 moving planning into a chat: The room moves its canvas planning into a chat outside the thread (a Discord most often; IRC, Skype, Telegram, Slack), setting it up, sharing invites and sending members there.

• T3-042 choosing upkeep over expansion: The room puts keeping what it holds before growing: maintain, clean, defend first, no new fronts.
• T3-060 adding a personal piece: Members add their own piece to a mark many share: a word, a heart, a drug's name, a character.
• T3-069 concentrating effort on fewer pieces: The room drops or pauses some of its pieces to put its pixels on one: one priority, one attack point, the rest abandoned.

• T3-157 reflecting on working together: Members say what the shared effort meant: strangers cooperating, the community as the point.
• T3-158 proposing ties beyond the canvas: Members carry a tie with another room past the canvas: trading recommendations, crossovers, sister cities, exchanges.
• T3-164 feeling supported through the canvas: Members find support, visibility or comfort through the canvas: a flag that says 'we are here', not being alone.
• T3-186 celebrating the feat in person (rare): A member invites others to meet in person to celebrate the canvas work.

G01 April Fools in the sub

T3-001 staging April Fools fake news

Members post their own April Fools fakes in the sub as if true (news, leaks, patches, releases, claims) and play along with them, fall for them or reveal them. Floor: trees and metalcore, unlike in size (trees holds 20,798 items in the window and metalcore 2,087, over twice as many).

• Must show: Members of the room themselves post something false as true for April Fools (a fake news story, leak, patch, release, announcement, trade or personal claim), or reply inside such a fake: playing along, being caught, revealing it.
• Must not show: A change to the sub itself staged by the moderators or the sub (T3-023); a joke made by the company, creator or organisation the sub follows (T3-048); members testing a claim the theme did not stage (T3-095).
• Decide when both: When a theme both stages fakes and tests claims from elsewhere, T3-001 if most concepts make or play inside the room's own fakes, T3-095 if most weigh an outside claim; objecting to the jokes in three or more concepts adds T3-032.
• Against T3-095: Did members of this room stage the claim? Yes: T3-001, the replies inside it included. It came from the moderators, the company, a public figure, the news or another room: T3-095.
• Against T3-023: Is the joke the sub's own changed state (its name, look, rules, subject or a staged takeover)? T3-023. Is it a member's post claiming something false inside the sub? T3-001.
• Against T3-048: Whose joke is it: the room's members (T3-001), or the game's company, the show's creator, an official channel or organisation (T3-048)?
• Against T3-031: Is the joke a fake posted as true for April Fools (T3-001), or the room's ordinary in-jokes and memes on any day (T3-031)?
• Against T3-017: Is anything posted as a fake for April Fools (T3-001), or are the posts ordinary (T3-017)?
• Varies: From one fake headline to a run of fake patch notes and leaks; from members who stay in character to members who reveal at once; from fooling the room to readers admitting they were caught.
• Is not: Members proposing pranks to play on friends away from the site: nothing is staged in the room, so it is the sub's usual talk (T3-017).
• Exemplars: "... nah not really, happy April 1st every one XD" (metalcore c0106); "April Fool's joke. OP is actually eating edibles. One for every upvote!" (trees c0217, rivals c0083); "Following the great reveal on Discord that I was faking, naw I actually do enjoy April Fool's quite a bit." (touhou c0037)

T3-023 running an April Fools takeover

The sub is turned into something else for April Fools, by its moderators or by the sub as a body (renamed, restyled, given new rules or a new subject, or one sub's joke raid on another), and members play inside it. Floor: zelda and patriots, unlike in size (zelda holds 9,309 items in the window and patriots 3,987, over twice as many).

• Must show: A change made to a whole sub for April Fools, announced or staged by its moderators or by a sub acting together: a new name, look, subject, rules or flairs, a fake sale or takeover by a character, company or rival sub, or one sub taking over another for the day; and members playing along inside it.
• Must not show: Members' own fake posts in an unchanged sub (T3-001); working out whether the change is a joke (T3-095); only complaining about the jokes (T3-032) or turning the styling off (T3-097).
• Decide when both: Playing along inside the takeover stays T3-023. Working out what the change was in three or more concepts adds T3-095; objecting in three or more adds T3-032; turning off or working around the look adds T3-097; asking to keep it after the day adds T3-100.
• Against T3-001: Is the joke the sub's changed state (T3-023), or a member's fake post inside the sub (T3-001)?
• Against T3-095: Are members playing inside the change (T3-023), or trying to tell whether the change is real and what it is (T3-095)?
• Against T3-097: Is the look being staged or played with (T3-023), or turned off, worked around or asked away (T3-097)?
• Against T3-093: Are moderator powers handed to every member and played with (T3-093), or is it any other takeover (T3-023)?
• Against T3-064: Is the target sub changed as a whole, as the joke's stage (T3-023), or do members carry the room's joke into other places one post at a time (T3-064)?
• Against T3-048: Is the joke the maker's (T3-048), or the sub's own moderators' change to the sub, even when they play the maker (T3-023)?
• Against T3-133: Is the change a joke the moderators staged (T3-023), or a real compromise they repair (T3-133)?
• Against T3-185: Is the rule change a joke for the day (T3-023), or meant to hold (T3-185)?
• Against T3-032: Is the sub turned into something else for the day and played inside (T3-023), or are the sub's April Fools jokes objected to and asked to stop (T3-032)?
• Against T3-100: Is the sub turned into something else for the day (T3-023), or is it asked that an April Fools change outlive the day (T3-100)?
• Varies: From a one-day styling swap to a full change of subject with removals enforced; from the moderators alone to a whole sub raiding another sub as a joke.
• Is not: A moderator removing canvas posts under the sub's ordinary rules on 1 April (T3-063): nothing about the sub was changed for the joke.
• Exemplars: "After many years of hard work on this sub, we've decided it's time to cash in! So we've sold the subreddit to Funko!" (gameofthrones c0007); "Annoucement: We received an intellectual property related cease and desist letter from the NFL's legal team today. Starting noon today, all football gifs are banned from r/Patriots." (patriots c0042); "What's the point in doing a joke like this without fully committing? It's not like we're getting rid of a place for people to talk about what they want to talk about, /r/horizon is currently a zelda subreddit." (zelda c0130)

T3-032 objecting to April Fools posts

Members object to the April Fools jokes in their sub as unfunny, stale, hurtful or in the way, and ask for them to stop or come down. Floor: europe and fivenightsatfreddys, unlike in size (europe holds 29,726 items in the window and fivenightsatfreddys 9,633, over twice as many).

• Must show: Objection to the sub's April Fools content carried by three or more concepts: calling the jokes unfunny, stale, hurtful or disruptive; asking members or moderators to stop them or take them down; warning others not to post them.
• Must not show: One or two passing complaints inside a theme about the jokes (named in the room note, not placed); complaints that the prank styling is hard to read (T3-097); objections to canvas posts (T3-075).
• Decide when both: A theme that stages or plays the jokes and objects to them keeps the staging kind as primary and adds T3-032 when the objecting has three or more concepts.
• Against T3-075: Are the posts objected to April Fools jokes (T3-032) or canvas posts flooding the sub (T3-075)?
• Against T3-097: Are the jokes themselves bad or unwelcome (T3-032), or is the joke look in the way of reading and voting (T3-097)?
• Against T3-063: Are members objecting (T3-032), or moderators removing posts under the sub's rules (T3-063)?
• Against T3-048: Is the objection to posts in the sub (T3-032), or a verdict on the company's or creator's own joke (T3-048)?
• Against T3-118: Is the moderators' joke objected to as a joke (T3-032), or blamed for a loss (T3-118)?
• Against T3-143: Are April Fools posts objected to (T3-032), or a canvas joke's limits argued (T3-143)?
• Against T3-023: Is the sub turned into something else for the day and played inside (T3-023), or are the sub's April Fools jokes objected to and asked to stop (T3-032)?
• Varies: From a sigh at a stale joke to calls for the moderators to undo a takeover; hurt at a joke about a nation, a language or a death.
• Is not: A member disliking the game company's April Fools feature (T3-048): the objection is to the maker's joke, not to posts in the sub.
• Exemplars: "This April fools' joke is in really poor taste. Hate towards a particular country and language is not a joke." (europe c0453); "Stop with these Kimi posts, they are getting boring fast" (formula1 c0203); "I forsee many of these 'jokes' coming, so as a PSA and if your reading, please do not make these posts." (fivenightsatfreddys c0166)

T3-048 reacting to official April Fools

Members react to the April Fools jokes of the company, creator, channel or organisation the sub follows: waiting for them, judging them, comparing years, missing them. Floor: overwatch and paydaytheheist, unlike in size (overwatch holds 45,381 items in the window and paydaytheheist 2,417, over twice as many).

• Must show: Talk about an April Fools joke made by the maker the sub is about (a game company's patch, trailer, store item or mode; a creator's or channel's video; a club's, school's or organisation's post): anticipating it, judging it, comparing it with other years, wishing for one, missing one.
• Must not show: An open question whether an announcement is a joke at all (T3-095); members' own fakes (T3-001); asking for the joke feature to stay after the day (T3-100).
• Decide when both: Judging the official joke stays T3-048. When most concepts ask whether an announcement is real, T3-095; asking to keep the joke feature in three or more concepts adds T3-100.
• Against T3-095: Is it still open whether the announcement is a joke (T3-095), or is the joke known and members judge it (T3-048)?
• Against T3-001: Is the joke the official maker's (T3-048) or the room's members' (T3-001)?
• Against T3-100: Reacting to the joke on the day (T3-048), or asking for it to stay or be made real after the day (T3-100)?
• Against T3-023: Is the joke the maker's (T3-048), or the sub's own moderators' change to the sub, even when they play the maker (T3-023)?
• Against T3-032: Is the objection to posts in the sub (T3-032), or a verdict on the company's or creator's own joke (T3-048)?
• Against T3-106: Do members only judge the maker's joke (T3-048), or call for action against the maker (T3-106)?
• Varies: From disappointment that a company made no joke this year to praise for a well-made fake update; companies, streamers, channels, clubs and universities.
• Is not: The sub's moderators staging a fake takeover by the company (T3-023): the moderators are not the company.
• Exemplars: "Blizzard usually goes all out for all their games, but this year it doesn't seem that way." (overwatch c0472, rivals c0766); "Gaijin is memeing on a whole new level" (warthunder c0006); "This year's April Fools update however, it was pretty amazing." (paydaytheheist c0103)

T3-064 spreading the room's joke elsewhere

Members carry their sub's joke or in-joke into other subs or sites, or show another sub what the room is doing. Floor: prequelmemes and totallynotrobots, unlike in size (prequelmemes holds 11,884 items in the window and totallynotrobots 1,288, over twice as many).

• Must show: The room's own joke (an April Fools takeover, an in-joke, a meme, a birthday flood) taken by members into another sub or site: posting it there, linking it into other subs, showing another sub what the room is doing, comparing the room's joke with other subs'.
• Must not show: A takeover of the room's own sub (T3-023); calls to other subs for canvas help (T3-062).
• Decide when both: One sub changing another sub as a whole for the day is T3-023; members carrying the joke into other places post by post is T3-064.
• Against T3-023: Is another sub taken over as the joke's stage (T3-023), or do members carry the joke into other places (T3-064)?
• Against T3-031: Is the in-joke played inside the room (T3-031), or taken out to other subs (T3-064)?
• Against T3-062: Does the message to another sub carry the room's joke (T3-064), or ask that sub for help on the canvas (T3-062)?
• Varies: From one link to another sub to a coordinated flood of birthday wishes across subs; from pride in the joke's reach to worry that another sub's joke is everywhere.
• Is not: Recruiting kindred subs to help with the canvas (T3-062): no joke is carried.
• Exemplars: "IT WOULD BE VERY INTERESTING TO USE THIS IDEA IN OTHER SUBS. WE ARE REAL HUMANS, BUT THEY WILL THINK WE ARE ROBOTS." (totallynotrobots c0005, rivals c0013); "Posted what we were doing here to the Love Live Reddit" (stardustcrusaders c0088); "When r/movies becomes r/prequelmemes for the day" (prequelmemes c0239, rivals c0209 c0327)

T3-093 playing with granted moderator powers

Rare tier. Every member is made a moderator for April Fools, and members play with the powers and with losing them.

• Must show: Moderator status handed to every member (or to many) for the day, and members playing with it: threats to ban or sticky, jokes about ruling, talk when the powers are withdrawn.
• Must not show: Any other takeover in which the moderators keep their powers (T3-023).
• Decide when both: The moderators' staging of the handout sits with T3-023; members' play with the powers goes to T3-093.
• Against T3-023: Do members hold moderator powers and play with them (T3-093), or do they play inside a change the moderators made (T3-023)?
• Against T3-133: Members playing with powers handed out for the day (T3-093), or a stolen account undone (T3-133)?
• Varies: From jokes about banning the real moderators to a mock mutiny once the powers end.
• Is not: A real election or appointment of moderators for the canvas work (T3-173, T3-101).
• Exemplars: "Unfortunately you can't ban other moderators, so really no one has any power!" (seahawks c0015, rivals c0031 c0023); "How do I ban all the other mods so I can be the only mod?" (seahawks c0031, rivals c0015 c0023); "At least I look good in moderator green." (seahawks c0023, rivals c0015 c0031)

T3-095 testing others' April Fools claims

Members work out whether a claim they did not make is an April Fools joke: a moderators' or company's announcement, a public figure's post, a news story, another room's claim, or real news taken for a joke. Floor: DestinyTheGame and loltyler1, unlike in size (DestinyTheGame holds 45,483 items in the window and loltyler1 1,815, over twice as many).

• Must show: Members asking or settling whether something the theme did not stage is real or a joke: checking the date and the source, pointing to evidence, warning others, confirming or exposing.
• Must not show: The room's own fakes and the replies inside them, readers caught by them included (T3-001); judging an official joke already known to be one (T3-048).
• Decide when both: If the room's members staged the claim, T3-001 even when readers test it; otherwise T3-095. Where a theme holds both, the kind with more concepts is primary and the other is added under rule 0.
• Against T3-001: Did members of this room stage the claim being tested (T3-001), or did it come from elsewhere, the moderators, a company, a public figure, the news, another room (T3-095)?
• Against T3-048: Is it still open whether it is a joke (T3-095), or do members judge an official joke they know is one (T3-048)?
• Against T3-023: Are members working out what the sub's change is and whether it is real (T3-095), or playing inside it (T3-023)?
• Against T3-016: Is the claim tested whether r/place itself is Reddit's April Fools joke, answered by explaining what r/place is (T3-016), or a claim about anything else (T3-095)?
• Varies: From a single 'April Fools?' to a thread tracing a leak to its source; claims by companies, moderators, players, news sites, public figures and other rooms; real news first taken for a joke.
• Is not: Readers falling for a fake that members of the same room posted (T3-001).
• Exemplars: "Is this a joke for april fools ?? #cracktheclue" (2007scape c0357); "Confirmed fake, puzzle by Math Class, not affiliated with Bungie" (DestinyTheGame c0200); "unban was a april fools joke?" (loltyler1 c0021)

T3-097 switching off the prank styling

Members get past the sub's April Fools look or rules: turning the style off, working around it, reporting what it breaks, asking for it gone, or the moderators switching it back. Floor: clashroyale and GuildWars2, unlike in size (clashroyale holds 19,914 items in the window and GuildWars2 7,667, over twice as many).

• Must show: The sub's April Fools styling or rule change treated as something to get past: turning off the subreddit style, browser and CSS workarounds, reports that it breaks reading, voting or links, requests to switch back, the moderators ending it.
• Must not show: Playing inside the changed look (T3-023); objecting to the joke posts as unfunny (T3-032); asking to keep the change (T3-100).
• Decide when both: A theme that stages the takeover and switches it off keeps T3-023 as primary and adds T3-097 when switching off or working around has a concept of its own.
• Against T3-100: Do members want the change gone or worked around (T3-097), or kept after the day (T3-100)?
• Against T3-032: Is the look in the way (T3-097), or are the jokes themselves unwelcome (T3-032)?
• Against T3-023: Is the change being staged or played (T3-023), or got rid of (T3-097)?
• Varies: From a reader's browser trick to the moderators restoring the old theme; contrast, fonts, flairs, hidden links and buttons that stop working.
• Is not: Moderators changing the sub's posting rules for good after the day (T3-185).
• Exemplars: "It's very hard to read these lol. Turn of subreddit style to get rid of it." (h3h3productions c0044); "It's harder to read and I can't find the "disable subreddit theme"" (clashroyale c0420, rivals c0361); "I found the April Fools background so annoying I turned off themes for this subreddit in Reddit's preferences and that is how it is going to stay." (GuildWars2 c0197, rivals c0176)

T3-100 keeping April Fools changes afterwards

Members ask that something made for April Fools outlive the day: the sub's flairs, styling or name, or a company's joke feature made real. Floor: rocketleague and rust, unlike in size (rocketleague holds 21,124 items in the window and rust 1,129, over twice as many).

• Must show: A request or decision that an April Fools change stay after the day: flairs, a theme, a name, a game mode, a rank set or a joke item; petitions, polls and settings asked for so that it can stay.
• Must not show: Reacting to the joke on the day (T3-048, T3-023); getting rid of the change (T3-097).
• Decide when both: Asking to keep a company's joke feature is T3-100 when the asking has a concept of its own, beside T3-048 for judging the joke.
• Against T3-097: Is the change wanted gone (T3-097) or kept (T3-100)?
• Against T3-048: Judging the official joke (T3-048), or asking that it stay or be made real (T3-100)?
• Against T3-105: Is the canvas work saved in screenshots and timelapses (T3-105), or an April Fools change kept in use (T3-100)?
• Against T3-023: Is the sub turned into something else for the day (T3-023), or is it asked that an April Fools change outlive the day (T3-100)?
• Varies: From a flair kept a few more days to petitions with thousands of votes asking a company to make a joke rank permanent.
• Is not: Asking to carry the canvas work to a successor canvas (T3-054): the canvas is no April Fools change.
• Exemplars: "Let's keep the April Fools flairs around a little longer anyway." (smashbros c0259); "THE PETITION TO KEEP THE VEGGIE RANKS" (rocketleague c0170, rivals c0560 c0614); "Mods, please keep this theme up." (rust c0026)

G02 the sub's rules and usual posts

T3-015 routing canvas posts into megathreads

Moderators or members gather the sub's canvas talk into one stickied thread, a megathread, and send other canvas posts there. Floor: heroesofthestorm and cubers, unlike in size (heroesofthestorm holds 22,813 items in the window and cubers 3,531, over twice as many).

• Must show: Canvas talk gathered into one thread inside the sub: a moderator stickying a megathread, members asking for one, posts redirected or removed with a pointer to it, the plan kept in one visible place.
• Must not show: Moving the planning out of the sub, to a chat or a new sub (T3-014, T3-090); removals under the sub's rules with no pointer to a gathering thread (T3-063); complaining about the flood without asking for a place to gather it (T3-075).
• Decide when both: Removing canvas posts and pointing them to the megathread is T3-015; removals resting on other rules (karma, titles, relevance) are T3-063. A theme with both in concepts of their own takes the larger as primary and the other under rule 0.
• Against T3-063: Is the post sent to one gathering thread (T3-015), or removed or filtered under a standing rule with no such pointer (T3-063)?
• Against T3-014: Is the gathering place a thread inside the sub (T3-015), or a chat outside it (T3-014)?
• Against T3-090: One thread in the sub (T3-015), or a new sub made for the canvas work (T3-090)?
• Against T3-075: Is one thread asked for so the work can go on in order (T3-015), or are members objecting that canvas posts crowd the sub (T3-075)?
• Against T3-049: Is the scattering complained of with no gathering act (T3-049), or is the talk gathered into one thread (T3-015)?
• Against T3-140: Is the thread only gathering canvas talk (T3-015), or do the moderators also say the work is not the sub's (T3-140)?
• Against T3-197: Is the canvas talk moved or shaped because the creator of the room's subject asked (T3-197), or gathered into one thread with no creator's wish behind it (T3-015)?
• Varies: From one moderator's sticky to dozens of posts redirected by hand; members asking for a thread that does not exist yet.
• Is not: A moderator removing a canvas post because the canvas has ended (T3-063): nothing is gathered.
• Exemplars: "Everybody, please stop creating /r/place threads on our sub. Keep your posts and ideas within this thread." (dbz c0052); "Why can't they pin 1 thread for all this /rplace stuff???" (heroesofthestorm c0318); "Please use the megathread" (cubers c0281)

T3-017 carrying on ordinary sub talk

The sub's ordinary business goes on during the canvas week: its usual subject, news, help, jokes and quarrels, apart from the canvas and April Fools. Floor: rocketleague and paydaytheheist, unlike in size (rocketleague holds 21,124 items in the window and paydaytheheist 2,417, over twice as many).

• Must show: Talk on the sub's usual subject during the window (the game, team, show, place or hobby; its news, help and arguments), or ordinary side talk inside a canvas thread, with no canvas work and no April Fools joke as its point.
• Must not show: Talk about the canvas work (other families); April Fools jokes (G01); the room's running in-jokes played in the canvas talk (T3-031).
• Decide when both: Usual talk inside a canvas or April Fools theme is named in the room note unless it holds three or more concepts of its own; then T3-017 is added under rule 0.
• Against T3-031: Is it the room's running in-joke carried into the canvas talk or the day (T3-031), or the sub's ordinary subject going on (T3-017)?
• Against T3-001: Is anything posted as a fake for April Fools (T3-001), or are the posts ordinary (T3-017)?
• Against T3-185: Are members arguing the sub's posting rules (T3-185), or talking about the sub's subject (T3-017)?
• Against T3-050: Does the sub's ordinary talk go on with no rival in it (T3-017), or is a rival community taunted (T3-050)?
• Against T3-184: Does the usual business go on (T3-017), or is a recurring event stopped or restarted around the canvas (T3-184)?
• Varies: From patch questions and match threads to a sub's politics, help requests and feuds; from whole themes of usual talk to usual talk drifting into a canvas thread.
• Is not: Members trading outside creators' April Fools releases as examples of the day done well: that is reacting to official April Fools (T3-048).
• Exemplars: "I'm glad RLCS is attractive enough to companies to have sponsors like that." (rocketleague c0648); "Uncheck all dlcs and start game, then close and re check all dlcs. Mine is now fully operational :))" (paydaytheheist c0159); "Don't know what to say but here's a virtual hug if you need it." (philippines c0031)

T3-051 pushing posts up the rankings

Members ask for upvotes so a post, an image or a joke climbs: up r/place or the front page so placers see it, or to the top of a search result. Floor: leagueoflegends and CKCrusaders, unlike in size (leagueoflegends holds 75,751 items in the window and CKCrusaders 487, over twice as many).

• Must show: A drive for votes: members asked to upvote a post so that it rises (to be seen by placers on r/place, to reach the front page, to make an image the first search result), or bargains of the form 'if this gets N upvotes'.
• Must not show: Calling members to place with no votes asked (T3-002); asking another sub for help (T3-062).
• Decide when both: A call to place that also asks for upvotes so the call is seen: T3-002 primary, T3-051 added when the vote drive has a concept of its own.
• Against T3-002: Are members asked to vote a post up (T3-051), or to come and place (T3-002)?
• Against T3-110: Is a tile offered in return for the vote (T3-110), or are votes gathered with nothing given (T3-051)?
• Against T3-053: Is one post pushed up (T3-051), or a run of posts lined up to spell a phrase (T3-053)?
• Against T3-062: Are upvotes asked so a post climbs (T3-051), or the room's call for hands carried into other subs (T3-062)?
• Varies: From one request to upvote a coordination post on r/place to joke campaigns to own a search result; pledges promised for a vote count.
• Is not: Offering to place a tile for an upvote (T3-110): the vote buys a tile.

• Against T3-083: Is language used to keep rivals out (T3-116), or a gap bridged to deal with another room (T3-083)?
• Varies: From asking members to write only in Hindi to letter-and-number codes in Russian; a plan passed by private message because rival fans got in.
• Is not: Recruiting quietly to avoid attackers (T3-144).
• Exemplars: "Alright. Pm this to others, don't post it in the thread because the celtics fans are infiltrating" (lakers c0131, rivals c0130); "Bakchodon, belgium ke log hamare thread padh rahe hai or hamari strategy ko samajh rahe hai."

T3-132 spying in a rival's chat

Members watch a rival room's chat from inside, or an outsider watches theirs, and report what they see. Floor: babymetal and shitredditsays, unlike in size (babymetal holds 5,231 items in the window and shitredditsays 1,337, over twice as many).

• Must show: Someone inside another room's chat or thread as a watcher: joining a rival's Discord to learn its plans, reporting what is said there, an outsider announcing that they are watching.
• Must not show: Meeting other rooms in chat to talk terms (T3-153); hiding one's own plan (T3-116).

G04 calling people in to place

T3-002 calling members in to place

• Decide when both: A call made mostly of coordinates or a template is T3-070, with T3-002 added when the call has concepts of its own; a call to defend a work under attack is T3-005 when the defence leads. When a theme holds two or more of these acts (an idea of what to make offered to the room, T3-033; hands called to place, T3-002; the work placed and its progress reported, T3-038), count the concepts of each: the act with the most concepts of its own is primary, and another is added under rule 0 only with concepts of its own. The opening post does not lead because it comes first. On a tie, T3-038 when the work was placed; else T3-002 when the mark was already chosen, T3-033 when it was not.

• Against T3-005: Is the call to build or finish (T3-002), or to defend against an attack under way (T3-005)?
• Against T3-033: Count the concepts of each: is the larger share an idea of what to make offered to the room (T3-033), or hands called to a mark already chosen (T3-002)? The opening post does not lead because it comes first.
• Against T3-070: Is the call itself the doing (T3-002), or the coordinates and templates that tell placers what to place (T3-070)?
• Against T3-104: Are people asked to place (T3-002), or those already placing cheered on (T3-104)?
• Against T3-169: Is the work the sub's name written on the canvas (T3-169), whatever the call or report about it, or any other picture called for (T3-002)?
• Against T3-016: Is the event explained (T3-016), or are members called to come and place (T3-002)?

• Against T3-167: Is a time set for placing together (T3-167), or hands called with no time (T3-002)?

• Against T3-084: Are the room's own members called to place (T3-002), or another canvas room asked, as a group, for help (T3-084)?
• Against T3-144: Are hands called for in the open (T3-002), or recruited only inside friendly communities so the work draws no attackers (T3-144)?
• Varies: From one 'come help me out' that draws no reply to repeated rallies through a long build; calls to start, to finish, to repair; calls to placers repeating a pattern before any group exists.
• Is not: Calls to build the room's national flag (T3-065).
• Exemplars: "Here's what I have so far: http://i.imgur.com/z5Q6TwA.png Come help me out!" (dallasstars c0075); "wtf, we're outnumbered! we need more people!" (thebluecorner c0256); "Get everyone you can" (korea c0067)

T3-044 recruiting canvas visitors

The room's mark on the canvas brings outsiders to the sub; members welcome them, advertise the sub on the canvas for it, or count the newcomers. Floor: parahumans and livecounting, unlike in size (parahumans holds 1,829 items in the window and livecounting 192, over twice as many).

• Against T3-189: Are the newcomers the mark draws welcomed (T3-044), or feared (T3-189)?

• Against T3-091: Is the design being settled (T3-004), or the settled design enforced against strays (T3-091)?
• Against T3-055: Is the look changed for its own sake (T3-004), or to make the mark harder to tamper with (T3-055)?
• Against T3-041: Is the mark's own design settled (T3-004), or a bigger or second piece added (T3-041)?
• Against T3-066: Is the design argued out (T3-004), or put to a vote or poll (T3-066)?
• Against T3-070: Is the design still argued (T3-004), or its directions handed out (T3-070)?
• Against T3-077: Is a still design settled (T3-004), or a change over time planned (T3-077)?
• Against T3-169: Is the mark's design settled (T3-004), or its signature added (T3-169)?
• Against T3-038: Is the mark being placed and its progress reported (T3-038), or its look argued and corrected against the plan (T3-004)?
• Varies: From a one-pixel correction to long arguments over which picture represents the room; letters, fonts, colours and outlines.
• Is not: Holding placers to the agreed design against those who stray (T3-091).
• Exemplars: "I think the design should be changed. Nobody knows what the pups are." (tagpro c0152); "Making them 4 tiles wide like we were doing before looks a bit tacky" (pitt c0095); "I'm gonna give it an outline of white where there is non-rainbow to give it some definition!" (anaheimducks c0039)

T3-020 choosing a canvas spot

Members look for and choose where on the canvas the mark goes: open space, a corner, beside kindred marks, a new location. Floor: h3h3productions and mizzou, unlike in size (h3h3productions holds 16,925 items in the window and mizzou 72, over twice as many).

• Must show: Where the mark should go: free space found, corners and neighbours weighed, a location announced or changed before or while building.
• Must not show: Moving the work after an attack (T3-022); asking a host room for space (T3-035); judging there is no space left (T3-036).
• Decide when both: A new spot chosen after an attack is T3-022; a spot chosen in the first place, or for a further piece, is T3-020.
• Against T3-022: Is a spot chosen in the first place (T3-020), or a new one found after an attack (T3-022)?
• Against T3-035: Is space found on the open canvas (T3-020), or asked of a room that holds it (T3-035)?
• Against T3-036: Is a spot found (T3-020), or the canvas judged to have none (T3-036)?
• Against T3-004: Is the question where it goes (T3-020), or what it looks like (T3-004)?
• Varies: From a quick 'top right corner!' to long searches across a full canvas; spots beside kindred works; striking where the defence is weak.
• Is not: Relocating the work once attackers have taken its spot (T3-022).
• Exemplars: "We could get a tiny MU next to KSU with all the colleges but it will be a tight fit." (mizzou c0007); "there's still a pretty good amount of areas without anything significant in them." (h3h3productions c0054); "Locatie noua. Sus si putin stanga" (romania c0032)

T3-033 proposing the room's mark

A member offers the room an idea of what to make on the canvas, and calls the room to make it. Floor: leagueoflegends and stardewvalley, unlike in size (leagueoflegends holds 75,751 items in the window and stardewvalley 1,541, over twice as many).

• Must show: An idea of what the room should put on the canvas, offered to the room: 'we should put X on r/place', 'let's make a ...', a proposal with or without a picture; slogans and symbols proposed as the room's mark included.
• Must not show: Calls for hands to a mark already chosen (T3-002); the design of a chosen mark worked out (T3-004).
• Decide when both: When a theme holds two or more of these acts (an idea of what to make offered to the room, T3-033; hands called to place, T3-002; the work placed and its progress reported, T3-038), count the concepts of each: the act with the most concepts of its own is primary, and another is added under rule 0 only with concepts of its own. The opening post does not lead because it comes first. On a tie, T3-038 when the work was placed; else T3-002 when the mark was already chosen, T3-033 when it was not.
• Against T3-002: Count the concepts of each: is the larger share an idea of what to make offered to the room (T3-033), or hands called to a mark already chosen (T3-002)? The opening post does not lead because it comes first.
• Against T3-004: Is a mark proposed (T3-033), or a chosen mark's look worked out (T3-004)?
• Against T3-098: Is a mark proposed (T3-033), or the room's absence from the canvas questioned (T3-098)?
• Against T3-041: Is the room's first mark proposed (T3-033), or a second piece beside an existing one (T3-041)?
• Against T3-092: Is a mark proposed for the room to make (T3-033), or made alone and reported (T3-092)?
• Against T3-129: Is a mark proposed as the room's emblem (T3-033), or as a message carrying a demand (T3-129)?
• Against T3-038: Count the concepts of each: is the larger share an idea of what to make offered to the room (T3-033), or the mark placed and its progress reported (T3-038)? A proposal does not lead because it comes first.
• Varies: From one member's wish to put a symbol on the canvas to a series of picture proposals; political slogans proposed as such sit here.
• Is not: A call for help on a picture already started (T3-002).
• Exemplars: "we should put a plansewalker symbol on r/place" (magictcg c0138); "We need to rep Stardew Valley on https://www.reddit.com/r/place/ !!! Let's make a jumino or something!" (stardewvalley c0001); "We should make a pixel art for our lord and saviour on /r/place" (leagueoflegends c0383)

T3-055 reshaping the mark against tampering

Members change the mark's shape to make it harder to tamper with: borders, boxes, outlines, enlarging or compacting it, dropping parts easily griefed. Floor: vinesauce and armok, unlike in size (vinesauce holds 366 items in the window and armok 74, over twice as many).

• Must show: A design change made for protection: a border or box around the mark, an outline, the mark enlarged or compacted, a vulnerable part (a name, letters) dropped or replaced.
• Must not show: Repairing the mark as it was (T3-021); design changes for their own sake (T3-004); fighting off attackers (T3-005).
• Decide when both: Repair and protective reshaping in one theme: T3-021 primary when the repair leads, T3-055 added when the reshaping has concepts of its own.
• Against T3-021: Is the mark restored as it was (T3-021), or changed in shape so it resists tampering (T3-055)?
• Against T3-004: Is the change made for the look (T3-004), or for protection (T3-055)?
• Against T3-005: Are attackers fought off (T3-005), or the mark's shape changed against them (T3-055)?
• Against T3-042: Is the mark reshaped to resist tampering (T3-055), or expansion dropped for upkeep (T3-042)?
• Varies: From a green box around a mushroom to a name dropped as too easily griefed and a lattice built around the figure instead.
• Is not: Re-placing the pixels attackers changed (T3-021).
• Exemplars: "We should build a green box around the Vineshroom to protect it from vandalism" (vinesauce c0082); "The name was too easily griefed. Building Green Lattice around HULK now." (TheHulk c0020); "Before expanding more, I propose we try to squish the dwarves in as closely as possible for easier defense" (armok c0046)

T3-077 animating the mark in timelapse

Rare tier. Members plan a mark that moves or flashes when the canvas is watched as a timelapse.

• Must show: A plan to change the mark over time so that it animates in the timelapse: flashing colours, a walking figure, a scripted animation.
• Must not show: Saving the work in screenshots and timelapses (T3-105).
• Decide when both: A plan that animates the mark and saves the timelapse: T3-077 for the plan, T3-105 for the saving.
• Against T3-105: Is the timelapse used to keep the work (T3-105), or the work designed to move in it (T3-077)?
• Against T3-004: Is a still design settled (T3-004), or a change over time planned (T3-077)?
• Varies: From a toadstool flashing red and green to a scripted animation.
• Is not: Sharing a timelapse of the finished work (T3-105).
• Exemplars: "no one has tried to make a flashing or moving image when the whole thing is viewed in a timelapse." (Mario c0010, rivals c0011); "making the toadstool near the top on the very left flash from completely red to completely green would be a good start" (Mario c0011, rivals c0010); "met wat handig gescript animatie toe te passen" (PlaceNL c0087)

T3-092 making a tribute alone

One member makes a small mark for the room, or for someone they admire, on their own and reports it, often asking others to keep it. Floor: bangtan and SydneyFC, unlike in size (bangtan holds 1,691 items in the window and SydneyFC 34, over twice as many).

• Must show: A single member making a small piece alone and saying so: 'I wrote a small X, protect it', 'I added a little something for my bias', 'I decided to make a tribute'.
• Must not show: Members reporting their share of the room's work (T3-003); proposing a mark to the room (T3-033).
• Decide when both: A lone piece that the room then takes up: T3-092 for the lone making, T3-038 for the room's build. A piece begun alone and then offered to the room for others to join: T3-033 when the offer leads, T3-092 when the lone making is reported with no call.
• Against T3-003: Is the work one member's own small piece (T3-092), or a share in the room's work (T3-003)?
• Against T3-033: Is a mark proposed for the room to make (T3-033), or made alone and reported (T3-092)?
• Against T3-060: Is the piece added to a shared mark (T3-060), or made alone apart from one (T3-092)?
• Against T3-160: Is the tribute to someone who died (T3-160), or a lone member's tribute to anyone (T3-092)?
• Varies: From a tiny tribute made before a long drive to a small logo one member keeps alive.
• Is not: A member reporting how many pixels they placed on the room's flag (T3-003).
• Exemplars: "I've got a 12 hour drive ahead of me, so I decided to make a tribute to Datlof on r/place." (yogscast c0043); "I wrote a small "SYD FC" on r/place. Protect it" (SydneyFC c0019, rivals c0012); "I added a little something for my bias" (bangtan c0055)

T3-160 building memorials to the dead

Members make or protect memorials on the canvas to people who died: musicians, drivers, relatives, the victims of a disaster. Floor: ireland and davidbowie, unlike in size (ireland holds 12,112 items in the window and davidbowie 246, over twice as many).

• Must show: A work made, proposed or defended as a memorial to the dead, or an existing work recast as one.
• Must not show: Mourning the lost canvas work (T3-029); tributes to the living (T3-092).
• Decide when both: A memorial defended against neighbours: T3-160 primary when the memorial is the work's point, T3-005 added for the defence.
• Against T3-029: Is a dead person honoured by the work (T3-160), or the lost work mourned (T3-029)?
• Against T3-092: Is the tribute to someone who died (T3-160), or a lone member's tribute to anyone (T3-092)?

T3-169 signing the sub's name

Members put the sub's name on or beside the work: r/name, a sign, a label. Floor: ss13 and drawhelix, unlike in size (ss13 holds 1,478 items in the window and drawhelix 99, over twice as many).

• Must show: The sub's name, or a short form of it, written on the canvas; the choice whether to write it; keeping it there.
• Must not show: Advertising the sub to bring visitors in, when that is the stated point (T3-044); leaving the name off on purpose (T3-191).
• Decide when both: Writing the sub's name is T3-169's doing; a call to write it is its form, and one concept carries one placement.
• Against T3-044: Is the name written to sign the work (T3-169), or to bring visitors to the sub (T3-044)?
• Against T3-191: Is the name put on (T3-169), or left off on purpose (T3-191)?
• Against T3-004: Is the mark's design settled (T3-004), or its signature added (T3-169)?

• Is not: Dropping the sub's name so that the work is no target (T3-191).
• Exemplars: "We should display our subreddit name" (PurplePixels c0074); "Just added in R/SS13, just need the Greytide worldwide bit." (ss13 c0009); "we could use /r/DRHE. It could probably fit right under Lord without taking up too much space from the rainbow." (drawhelix c0038)

T3-191 leaving the work unsigned

Rare tier. Members leave the sub's name off the work, so that it draws no attackers or because the builders are not the sub's.

• Must show: A decision to drop or omit the sub's name or label from the work, with its reason.
• Must not show: Writing the name on (T3-169).
• Decide when both: A theme that argues both: the side that prevails in the concepts decides.
• Against T3-169: Is the name put on (T3-169), or left off (T3-191)?
• Against T3-144: Is the recruiting kept quiet (T3-144), or the name kept off the work (T3-191)?
• Varies: From dropping a label that makes the room a target to saying the builders are not the sub's.
• Is not: Writing the sub's name beside the work (T3-169).
• Exemplars: "having "furry" right there in text makes us a prime target" (furry c0147, rivals c0131); "The people working on it aren't from r/furry. we can drop the r/furry from it." (furry c0131, rivals c0147)

T3-197 heeding the creator's wishes

Rare tier. The room shapes its canvas work around what the creator of its subject wants: the creator's name kept off, canvas talk moved out of the creator's way.

• Must show: The wishes of the person the sub is about (an author, an artist) passed on and followed in the canvas work: not using their name, keeping canvas talk out of their sub, not pinging them.
• Must not show: Moderators' rules for canvas posts with no creator's wish behind them (T3-063, T3-015).
• Decide when both: Canvas talk moved to a new sub for the creator's sake: T3-090 for the move, T3-197 for the reason when it has concepts of its own.
• Against T3-063: Are canvas posts handled under the sub's rules (T3-063), or shaped by the creator's wish (T3-197)?
• Against T3-090: Is a canvas sub opened for order (T3-090), or to keep the work out of the creator's way (T3-197)?
• Against T3-140: Do the moderators disown the work (T3-140), or does the room heed its creator (T3-197)?
• Against T3-127: Is the creator's notice sought (T3-127), or the creator's wishes followed (T3-197)?
• Against T3-015: Is the canvas talk moved or shaped because the creator of the room's subject asked (T3-197), or gathered into one thread with no creator's wish behind it (T3-015)?
• Varies: From passing on that the author wants his name kept out to asking members not to ping him.
• Is not: Moderators gathering canvas talk into a megathread for order (T3-015).
• Exemplars: "Am hearing S4hbbQtdz/cRgjTfqcESz5Bj8VM= would prefer if we kept his name out of it, so focus on the top part and protecting the bug." (parahumans c0033, rivals c0063); "the moderator of this sub and author of its subject matter has asked to keep all the /r/place stuff to the pinned" (parahumans c0079, rivals c0063); "Please don't ping S4hbbQtdz/cRgjTfqcESz5Bj8VM=. He gets enough spam as it is, and just distracts him from important stuff." (parahumans c0053, rivals c0063)

G08 building and growing the mark

T3-003 reporting one's own placing labour

• Against T3-092: Is the share part of the room's work (T3-003), or a small piece the member made alone (T3-092)?
• Against T3-043: Does the member tell their own part (T3-003), or credit others (T3-043)?
• Against T3-009: Is the finished work celebrated (T3-009), or one's own part in it told (T3-003)?

• Must not show: Members discovering a mark of the room that they did not know of (T3-082); celebrating the finished work at or after the close (T3-009); reports of progress (T3-038).
• Decide when both: An announcement that is also a celebration: T3-026 while the work stands during placement, T3-009 when the finished work is celebrated.

• Against T3-038: Is the mark's progress reported (T3-038), or its presence announced (T3-026)?
• Against T3-065: Is the room's mark announced as up (T3-026), or is the work a flag of the land the room is named for or speaks for, announced, called for or built (T3-065)? A flag built in a room named for a land is that land's flag unless its concepts name another.
• Varies: From a one-line post to a weekly roundup that names the mark.

Members build the mark and report its progress: started, half done, almost there, the next part. Floor: greenlattice and hyperlightdrifter, unlike in size (greenlattice holds 5,244 items in the window and hyperlightdrifter 170, over twice as many).

• Must show: Placing the mark and reports of its state: started, coordinates of the work in progress, half done, almost finished, the parts done and left.
• Must not show: Calls for hands (T3-002); the design argued (T3-004); the finished work celebrated (T3-009); repair after an attack (T3-021).
• Decide when both: Building with repairs: the larger part primary and the other under rule 0. When a theme holds two or more of these acts (an idea of what to make offered to the room, T3-033; hands called to place, T3-002; the work placed and its progress reported, T3-038), count the concepts of each: the act with the most concepts of its own is primary, and another is added under rule 0 only with concepts of its own. The opening post does not lead because it comes first. On a tie, T3-038 when the work was placed; else T3-002 when the mark was already chosen, T3-033 when it was not.
• Against T3-002: Count the concepts of each: is the larger share the work placed and its progress reported (T3-038), or hands called for it (T3-002)? An opening call does not lead because it comes first.
• Against T3-021: Is the mark built for the first time (T3-038), or restored after damage (T3-021)?

• Against T3-073: Is the first build's progress reported (T3-038), or what happened to the work once it stood (T3-073)?
• Against T3-026: Is the mark's progress reported (T3-038), or its presence announced (T3-026)?
• Against T3-004: Is the mark being placed and its progress reported (T3-038), or its look argued and corrected against the plan (T3-004)?
• Against T3-033: Count the concepts of each: is the larger share an idea of what to make offered to the room (T3-033), or the mark placed and its progress reported (T3-038)? A proposal does not lead because it comes first.
• Against T3-070: Is the mark being placed and its progress reported, coordinates given as where the work in progress stands (T3-038), or are directions posted for placers to follow, coordinates, templates, guides or colour plans (T3-070)? A link that only shows where the finished work is points to it (T3-026), not a direction.
• Varies: From a start at given coordinates to running reports until the close.
• Is not: Restoring the mark after an attack (T3-021).
• Exemplars: "Making really good progress now. We are about half way done." (necrodancer c0014); "I've started to make one. Finished with the face and eyes in the vicinity of (886,563)" (hyperlightdrifter c0008); "WE ARE ALMOST THERE FELLOW GREENS!!!" (greenlattice c0109)

T3-041 extending the room's work

The room adds pieces to its work or enlarges it: a second picture, another album, a bigger logo, details around the first. Floor: masseffect and muse, unlike in size (masseffect holds 37,082 items in the window and muse 442, over twice as many).

• Must show: Proposals or work to add to the room's existing mark or to make another: a next piece, a bigger version, additions around the first.
• Must not show: The room's first mark proposed (T3-033); a member adding a personal piece to a shared mark (T3-060); spreading a faction's colour over others' work (T3-171).
• Decide when both: Additions argued as design: T3-004 when the existing mark's look is settled, T3-041 when a new piece or an enlargement is added.
• Against T3-033: Is the room's first mark proposed (T3-033), or more added beside or around it (T3-041)?

• Varies: From a cake beside a logo to a run of album covers; enlarged letters; details added around a figure.
• Is not: The room's first proposal of a mark (T3-033).

T3-042 choosing upkeep over expansion

The room puts keeping what it holds before growing: maintain, clean, defend first, no new fronts. Floor: greenlattice and armok, unlike in size (greenlattice holds 5,244 items in the window and armok 74, over twice as many).

• Must show: Upkeep chosen over growth: calls to maintain, clean or defend before expanding; refusals of new projects or attacks because the room cannot hold more; designs scaled to what can be defended.
• Must not show: Concentrating effort on fewer of the room's pieces (T3-069); repairs as such (T3-021); reining in the room's own attacks (T3-076).
• Decide when both: Choosing among the room's own pieces is T3-069; choosing holding over growing is T3-042.
• Against T3-069: Is one of the room's pieces dropped for another (T3-069), or growth set aside to keep what it holds (T3-042)?

• Must not show: Outsiders led to the sub by its mark (T3-044); the room announcing work it made (T3-026).
• Decide when both: Whose eyes find the mark: the room's own members finding work they did not know of go to T3-082; outsiders led to the sub go to T3-044.

• Exemplars: "If we lose it's the mods fault" (chelseafc c0048, rivals c0088 c0081); "When /r/prequelmemes mods pretend to be protectors of the /r/place Tragedy text after denying multiple requests for aid" (prequelmemes c0508); "I almost wonder if the admins helped some things or added in their final touches." (anarcho_capitalism c0165)

T3-121 excluding the room's own vandals

The room sanctions its own members who damage the work or the room by exclusion: bans from the chat or sub, kicking, shunning, calling them traitors. Floor: AmericanFlaginPlace and ufl, unlike in size (AmericanFlaginPlace holds 4,544 items in the window and ufl 290, over twice as many).

• Must show: Exclusion used as a sanction against the room's own members: bans from the Discord or the sub, kicking, shunning a 'traitor', members reported so moderators throw them out, such a ban challenged or reversed.
• Must not show: Messaging placers to stop (T3-008); posts removed under the sub's rules (T3-063); bigotry shut down in chat (T3-182).
• Decide when both: A ban for bigoted talk: T3-182 when the bigotry leads, T3-121 when the exclusion does.
• Against T3-008: Is the placer asked to stop (T3-008), or excluded (T3-121)?
• Against T3-063: Is a post removed under the sub's rules (T3-063), or a member excluded as a sanction (T3-121)?

• Against T3-076: Is the room's attack reined in by words (T3-076), or a member excluded (T3-121)?
• Against T3-087: Do members find out or name who is damaging the work (T3-087), or exclude a member who did, by a ban, a kick or a call to moderators to throw them out (T3-121)?
• Varies: From shunning a single traitor to a three-day cooling-off; a ban from the room's Discord challenged and reversed.
• Is not: A moderator removing a post that breaks the sub's rules (T3-063).
• Exemplars: "that guy was banned from the server" (roosterteeth c0088); "SHUN THE NONBELIEVER" (ufl c0031, rivals c0030); "Use that report button so our mods can throw out the trolls spreading disinformation" (AmericanFlaginPlace c0502)

T3-126 disputing who speaks for rooms

Members dispute who may speak or decide for a room toward others: false claims to be its moderator or representative, denials of being one, outsiders told not to decide for its work, no one yet able to speak for the placers. Floor: crusaderkings and rainbowgrid, unlike in size (crusaderkings holds 3,660 items in the window and rainbowgrid 33, over twice as many).

• Must show: Contest or statement about who represents a room toward others: a claimed representative or moderator challenged; someone denying they speak for the room; outsiders told they cannot decide for the room's work; members saying no group yet exists to speak for the placers.
• Must not show: Disputes over the room's own chat's authority inside the room (T3-114); an organised room disowning placers it cannot control (T3-188).
• Decide when both: Separating the organised plan from placers it does not control is T3-188; who may speak for the room is T3-126.
• Against T3-114: Is the room's own chat's power inside the room disputed (T3-114), or who speaks for the room to others (T3-126)?
• Against T3-188: Is the right to speak for the room disputed (T3-126), or placers outside the plan disowned (T3-188)?
• Against T3-194: Does a member act as the room's envoy (T3-194), or is the right to do so disputed or denied (T3-126)?
• Against T3-101: Is someone put in charge of the work (T3-101), or is it disputed who speaks for the room outward (T3-126)?
• Against T3-094: Is it disputed who speaks for a room (T3-126), or who may approve a spot (T3-094)?
• Against T3-180: Is it disputed who speaks for the room (T3-126), or who belongs to the nation (T3-180)?
• Varies: From a false moderator claim exposed to a random member denying they are the official mediator; a room telling other Discords not to decide for its art; a pattern's repeaters with no one to speak for them.
• Is not: A room telling a neighbour that rogue placers act against its plan (T3-188).
• Exemplars: "w-wait man im just some random guy not the official mediator" (jerma985 c0030); "Please don't pretend like you can make decisions about the artwork that was started by us." (crusaderkings c0051); "i don't think there's coordination yet of the people doing the rainbow grid??? unless i missed it??? so there's no way yet to get people to lay off of repeating the exact same grid" (rainbowgrid c0003)

T3-170 mistaking friendly work for vandalism

Members find that what looked like vandalism was friendly work or their own mistake, and own or forgive it. Floor: smite and placesnek, unlike in size (smite holds 14,286 items in the window and placesnek 470, over twice as many).

• Must show: Damage that turns out friendly: an ally's or neighbour's work taken for vandalism and then recognised; members' own misclicks or misplaced pixels owned and forgiven; help that went wrong.
• Must not show: Tracing a hostile attacker (T3-087); apologising to a neighbour for damage the room did to their work (T3-040); damage done for fun (T3-192).
• Decide when both: Tracing that ends in finding a friend: T3-087 when the search leads, T3-170 when the recognition and the owning do.
• Against T3-087: Is the culprit sought (T3-087), or found to be a friend or one's own mistake (T3-170)?
• Against T3-040: Is the friendly mistake inside the room's own or allied work (T3-170), or damage the room did to a neighbour's work (T3-040)?
• Against T3-192: Was the damage a mistake (T3-170), or done for fun (T3-192)?
• Varies: From a community's lettering undone as vandalism and then recognised to a newcomer's accidental pixel apologised for.
• Is not: Apologising to a neighbouring room for covering its art (T3-040).
• Exemplars: "something I'd been undoing earlier as vandalism was actually a community attempt to write "SNOOT BOOP"" (placesnek c0104); "We thought you were making a cross and tried to complete it!"

T3-188 disowning placers outside the plan

An organised room tells others that placers acting in its name or against its plan are not under its control: rogues, the hivemind, individuals outside its chat. Floor: ainbowroad and gatech, unlike in size (ainbowroad holds 9,887 items in the window and gatech 919, over twice as many).

• Must show: A room, or its organisers, setting its plan apart from placers it does not control: 'we are not for that person', 'there are rogues outside our Discord', 'the hivemind works in mysterious ways', offers to repair what the rogues did.
• Must not show: A room saying it has no plan at all (T3-125); moderators disowning the canvas work as a whole (T3-140); members of a room doubting a damage was theirs, or a bare denial pointing at another room (T3-087).
• Decide when both: An outside room's denial counts when it separates its organised members from placers acting in its name (a fandom room's Danish members, a crusader room's Norwegian ally); a bare 'it was not us' that points to another room is tracing (T3-087). Separating the plan from such placers is T3-188; who may speak for the room is T3-126.
• Against T3-087: Does an organised room say the placers are not under its control (T3-188), or do members work out who did it, the room's own members doubting it was theirs included (T3-087)?
• Against T3-125: Does the room set its plan apart from placers outside it (T3-188), or say it has no plan (T3-125)?

• Varies: From one disowned rogue in a chat to national rooms saying their plans do not control every placer of their nation; offers to repair the rogues' damage.
• Is not: A room that says it has no plan and wings it (T3-125).
• Exemplars: "We are not for that person in the discord. We completely disagree with them entirely." (ainbowroad c0042, rivals c0386 c0593); "We are trying avoiding cutting through you guys, but there are some rogues outside our discord" (gatech c0077, rivals c0072); "There will always be some rogue kids ruining stuff. Just make sure to rebuild it." (denmark c0198, rivals c0285)

T3-192 griefing the work for fun

G11 scripts, bots and extra accounts

T3-027 arguing whether scripts are fair

Members argue whether scripts and bots are fair: cheating or common practice, against the spirit of the canvas or the only way to hold ground. Floor: globaloffensive and Thegreatblackhole, unlike in size (globaloffensive holds 34,561 items in the window and Thegreatblackhole 187, over twice as many).

• Must show: Argument about scripts or bots as such: called cheating, embarrassing or beneath the room; defended as what every large community does; judged to spoil the canvas; bot rumours, and claims that a defence was scripts and not people.
• Must not show: Running or sharing a script with no argument over its fairness (T3-028); placing beyond the limit with extra accounts (T3-088).
• Decide when both: Running and arguing: T3-028 primary when the scripts are run, T3-027 added when the argument has concepts of its own. A bot rumour, or saying a defence was scripts rather than people, goes here when fairness is in question.
• Against T3-028: Are scripts run (T3-028), or is their fairness argued (T3-027)?
• Against T3-088: Are extra accounts used (T3-088), or the fairness of automation argued (T3-027)?
• Against T3-179: Is the fairness of scripts argued (T3-027), or a political ideology argued from the canvas (T3-179)?

• Is not: A member sharing a script and how to run it (T3-028).

(unitedkingdom c0264); "what's unfair about it? every community that has big portions of the board uses a script" (globaloffensive c0824); "Our community must remain independent of bot trash. Those tactics are beneath us." (Thegreatblackhole c0078)

T3-028 running scripts for the work

Members write, share and run scripts or bots that place or keep the room's work. Floor: TheFarLeftSide and archlinux, unlike in size (TheFarLeftSide holds 3,737 items in the window and archlinux 976, over twice as many).

• Must show: Scripts or bots made, shared, installed or run for the room's work: links and instructions, the script repairing the mark, errors and updates.
• Must not show: Arguing whether scripts are fair (T3-027); extra accounts with no script (T3-088); stale scripts switched off (T3-089).
• Decide when both: Running and arguing: see T3-027. Stale scripts switched off in concepts of their own add T3-089; extra accounts add T3-088.
• Against T3-027: Are scripts run (T3-028), or is their fairness argued (T3-027)?
• Against T3-088: Is placing automated (T3-028), or multiplied by extra accounts (T3-088)?

• Against T3-120: Do members run the script on their own accounts (T3-028), or lend accounts for someone else's bot (T3-120)?
• Against T3-176: Is the script run for the room's own work (T3-028), or slipped to a rival against it (T3-176)?
• Varies: From one member offering a way to draw automatically to sub-wide bot armies with install guides; scripts that repair a mark overnight.
• Is not: A template posted for placing by hand (T3-070).
• Exemplars: "To use it, install TamperMonkey, load https://www.reddit.com/place?webview=true, and let the script do its work." (TheFarLeftSide c0506); "anyone wishing to join the bot army install the nodejs script" (archlinux c0157); "So I may or may not have a way to draw on /r/place automatically. Hit me up."

T3-088 placing beyond the pixel limit

Members place more than the one-pixel limit allows: extra accounts, alts, throwaway accounts, glitches used to place more. Floor: bitcoin and uofm, unlike in size (bitcoin holds 11,315 items in the window and uofm 729, over twice as many).

• Must show: Placing beyond the limit by any means: alts and throwaway accounts made or used, many accounts per member, glitches exploited to place more.
• Must not show: Scripts as such (T3-028) unless they run on extra accounts; coping with the limit while building (T3-074); accounts lent to another's bot (T3-120).
• Decide when both: A script run on extra accounts: T3-028 for the script, T3-088 added when the accounts have concepts of their own. Glitches: using one to place beyond the limit is T3-088, coping with one that stops or delays placing is T3-074, explaining one is T3-016.
• Against T3-028: Is placing automated (T3-028), or multiplied by extra accounts or a glitch (T3-088)?

• Against T3-110: Are extra placements made (T3-088), or a tile offered as payment (T3-110)?
• Against T3-027: Are extra accounts used (T3-088), or the fairness of automation argued (T3-027)?
• Varies: From a reminder that alt accounts work too to plans for multi-account scripts; members insisting the work is manual despite many accounts.
• Is not: Working within the cooldown while building (T3-074).
• Exemplars: "Reminder that alt accounts work too." (bitcoin c0149); "I made two more reddit accounts to assist in protecting" (uofm c0008); "Lol spent better part of 2 hours and 3 accounts on this. XD" (zootopia c0100)

• Against T3-091: Are hand placers held to the current plan (T3-091), or scripts brought into line with it (T3-089)?
• Varies: From one member stopping an old script that overwrote a flag to rooms finding their bots fighting each other after a template changed.
• Is not: A script revised to leave a neighbour's border alone (T3-168).
• Exemplars: "The old script writes over the american flag so I stopped it." (bitcoin c0481, rivals c0128); "Make sure to stop running the old script and update it" (evex c0083, rivals c0074); "Mja, borimo se proti lastnim botom in skriptam :D" (slovenia c0058)

T3-108 sharing one bot target

• Exemplars: "da adesso il target è condiviso con gli inglesi per una migliore difesa!" (theitalyplace c0155); "/r/place bot map for both tux and arch" (archlinux c0184, rivals c0187); "if someone wants to modify the script for the A&M flag then I'm happy to merge them together and get r/UTAustin using it" (aggies c0106)

• Exemplars: "DM Me if you want to lend any away (or just set them up running)" (gatech c0066); "Regardless, is there a way I can join the botnet?" (rust c0111); "Just run the script dude." (albania c0040, rivals c0039)

T3-168 editing scripts to spare neighbours

Members change the room's script so it spares a neighbour: a border left untouched, overlapping pixels removed, a shared image. Floor: rit and texastech, unlike in size (rit holds 565 items in the window and texastech 191, over twice as many).
