View submission: The Complete r/Place Timelapse

Yo what do our flares mean lol. It’s clearly place coordinates but I don’t know why I have that particular cell, and wtf is after it?

Edit: for everyone coming to ask the same thing, it appears to be related to the 2017 iteration of r/Place (and likely the last tile location based on the dates?)

No idea what's after but the flairs are actually from the first place not this one it's the last pixel you placed

2nd number is actually the time you placed it via here https://www.reddit.com/r/place/comments/63a4xo/lets_find_who_placed_the_last_pixel_look_at_your

Test. I haven't played Place since 2017, so truly wonder what mine will be.

I placed down a lot of tiles, including white tiles, but don't have a flair. I guess someone overwrote my white tiles at the end or something lol?

Could be coordinate and time or the first /r/place cell you created. These floating point numbers, when read as unix time, are from April 2017. Yours would be April 3, 2017 16:56:11 GMT.

the flairs are from 2017's r/place, showing the details of the most recent pixel you placed. the long number is the unix timestamp for when you made that placement.
