View submission: SEQUENCE - FINAL STITCH (THEATRICAL)
I personally feel that the bots that had overrun r/place were taken down by both scripts and people. No group could hold control, we saw that with the void. With this, the largest group held control the entire time to make a subpar plot.

In this context when I'm talking about scripting and botting I'm refering to these groups, almost everything in the final piece had pseudo pixel protection which is what I meant by either botting up or getting replaced. The Void may not have had the best of intentions but they used the same tactics of overpowering anyone not scripting that say Germany, Dota 2 fans or Place Hearts used.
The use of bots in countering bots wasn't a good solution to the fundamental issue of bots controlling what is allowed on the pixel map. Whether to either destroy or perserve, it was part of a wider issue with /r/place, at least to me that is.
