Place was basically a white canvas that any user could interact with. Users could select any pixel on the canvas and change it to the colour of their choice, with a 5 minute(?) cooldown. Initially there was chaos, random colours, vague dick drawings etc. But eventually communities and subreddits banded together to make their own drawings, logos and flags. Wars were fought and alliances were formed, and discord servers created to discuss strategy. Here's the timelapse of the whole thing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnRCZK3KjUY
