The '''Knights of the Blue Corner''' ('''KoTBC''' or '''TBC''') are a revival of the [[Blue Corner]] that began on [[Canvas 63]] and continue to the current canvas. The knights have joined the [[Chromatic Empire]] as unique vassals of the [[Navy Blue Grand Monarchy]].

The c63 revival, in some ways, started before Canvas 63. The leader of the revival, Scout107, had joined during [[Canvas 61]] intending to revive the Blue Corner faction as soon as a viable corner appeared. However, a viable corner did not appear until Canvas 63. Scout107 was not active for the first half of the canvas, but when he did join, a little less than halfway through, he set about turning the bottom-right corner of each square blue. This was easy on five of the squares as they were relatively empty, the Purple square even had blue pixels placed by a previous user during the early days of the Canvas! However, the Blue Square contained an obstacle that was insurmountable for the faction.

The bottom right corner of the Blue Square was already taken up by an artwork made by [[PokePxls]]. Initially, Scout placed a single blue pixel at the true corner of the square, but he slowly expanded until PokePxls reclaimed the corner. He would proceed to grief PokePxls in the region around the true corner afew times until he decided he would try and make a treaty, offering to stop griefing if Pokepxls would let him have the 1 pixel that he considered to be the true corner. The faction flatly refused this offer and instead griefed the corners on the other squares. In

The faction flatly refused this offer and instead griefed the corners on the other squares. In order to add to his numbers and revive the Blue Corner faction, Scout107 began to post on the Blue Corner Subreddit to rally reinforcements, but he soon realized this was not enough to fight off PokePxls, so he tried to make peace with Pokepxls. The conflict slowly died down until the peace was finalized when The Blue Corner joined the [[Chromatic Empire]].

=== The Blue Corner Civil War ===
Around the time the Blue Corner joined the Chromatic Empire, one of the users that had joined The Blue Corner, CreepyFR, took de-facto control of the corner on the orange square. Eventually, he expanded into Roger's cap which was just above it. Scout107 disapproved of this action and fixed the artwork and he tried to get CreepyFR on his side. To do this, Scout107 officially recognized CreepyFR's control of the corner on the Orange Square by making him the faction's first canvas Marshall as he hoped working more closely with him would allow him to prevent CreepyFR from getting the faction into unwanted wars and would make it easier to get him to agree to the two principles Scout wanted to establish to guide the faction: keep the true corner Blue, no unnecessary aggression.

CreepyFR would continue to expand into Cappy and other members of the faction would continue to fix it and Scout would continue to try and get him to stop. Eventually this conflict caused Scout to threaten to ban CreepyFR from the faction. CreepyFR then chose to leave the faction and join the defunct [[Blue Corner]] faction since he could not yet make his own. At this time, the primary faction of this revival was named The Blue Corner and it's abbreviation was TBC. The similarity between the names of the "Blue Corner" and "The Blue Corner" became a source of friction as the faction sought to enter the Chromatic Empire, so the faction would rename itself as "The Knights of the Blue Corner".

The most significant griefer during Canvas 63 was left, a member of frog pixels united, who started griefing the corner on the orange square by acing green pixels on it during the last few days of the event. Left was initially unsuccessful, but eventually he was able to turn the entire region green. This grief was the  cleaned up by the combined efforts of the Knights and the Chromatic Empire. However, due to a treaty between Left's faction and the ChE, [[PineApple]] (Liam) decided that the Chromatic Empire would not defend the Green Corner, a decision which did not please either the Knights or the Empire at the time. Left would retake the corner on the orange square and, after a brief conflict, the Knights let him have it in exchange for peace.

The two my little ponies were made by the griefer Revenge666, and they were approved by the knights at first to appease him and then to comply with Imperial reforms. The other artwork, the Blue frog, was made to make peace with frisk as an alternative to his previous condition to stop griefing, that the word "BLUE" in that corner be changed to "BOOB".

The yellow square was claimed by Scout107 who initially drew an abstract scene representing two boats sailing into a storm and three swans flying away. This monochromatic artwork turned out to be too difficult to protect as it was easy to grief and allies mistook the abstract art for incomplete expansion. Eventually Scout decided preserving this art was too difficult, so he let his allies fill the corner in and then tried to draw the scene of Jonah and the Whale in the space that was left. He successfully drew the whale, but he gave up on drawing Jonah, leaving the whale as the only artpiece in the corner.
 
=== The Green Square (Scout107) ===
Despite the fact that a pattern of autumn leaves covered most of the green square in the final Canvas, Scout107 did ensure that there was 1 blue pixel in the bottom right of the Green square by getting approval from the owner of the art, Nanieye. This pixel was griefed multiple times, generally by revenge666, but it was generally left alone. The Knights of the Blue Corner were forbidden to discuss the pixel publicly after the deal was made to avoid drawing attention to it.
 
=== The Purple Square (Valbor) ===
The purple square was claimed by [[Valbor]] who drew a cyan amongus looking into a cyan mirror in order to claim the square. Notably, Valbor is the only person besides Scout to have controlled more than one corner during Canvas 63 as he was also the canvas Marshall of the Orange Square after the Knights of the Blue Corner officially reclaimed it.
 
The purple square is also notable because nearly half of the corner's final territory was filled out before Scout claimed the corner for himself and expanded it at the start of the revival. Because most of the other corners practically started from scratch, this made the purple corner the largest Blue Corner on Canvas 63 before the start of the revival, and also the oldest, unless the Blue Square is counted.
 
== Canvas 64 ==
Because the last days of Canvas 63 were filled with conflict and we're quite stressful, the knights chose to rest as much as they could on this canvas, but they were griefed nonetheless, though not as constantly. The central design of the Blue Corner at this time was a knight which was made by [[Meepleomg]]. He had made the same design on the previous canvas near the location of the corner on the Yellow Square, but at that time it was black and white and not faction territory. The faction worked together to build this one piece of art and then just didn't expand, atleast not at first.
 
=== The Teal Corner ===
At the start of canvas 64, [[HentaiLover]] claimed to lead a faction called the teal corner who's goal was to turn the Blue Corner teal. He eventually did change the Blue Corner into the teal corner and recolored the knight, but he did this for the sole purpose of getting a screenshot and creating drama which could be written about later, so the knights made a truce, because he was persistent, allowing him to recolor the knight on the condition that he wouldn't change the color of the true corner until the very end. After he was finished, the knights reclaimed their artwork.
 
=== Canine's expansion ===
While they were cleaning up the mess this caused, other people began to grief the Blue Corner. Eventually, a user name Canine began to create art right beside the knight and he was confused for a griefer. Once his intentions to build a dog were clear, he was allowed to make his artwork. Then he repeated this artwork and made a line of dogs which stretched across the bottom of the canvas until it reached the other side of Pokepxls art on Canvas 64. while he was making more dogs, he was also turning the background around his dogs blue, singlehandedly doing more to expand the Blue Corner than all members of the faction combined even though he was not a knight of the Blue corner. This would encourage more knights to slowly expand the Blue Corner themselves.
 
=== Teal corner ===
The corner would later be attacked by [[HentaiLover]] and [[Revenge666]] who took over canines expansion and made it teal. The [[Chromatic Empire]] intervened and created a border and a treaty with the invaders. This deal was quickly approved by the Knights of the Blue Corner since they only took territory that was part of Canine's expansion rather than actual territory owned by the faction.
 
=== Reset Grief ===
In the last minute of the canvas, revenge666 was griefing the pixel the knights had designated as the true corner and was being fought by Scout107. At the very last second of the canvas, revenge666 placed a pixel on the true corner. Scout107 was unable to place a pixel before the canvas refreshed.
 
== Canvas 64a ==
The bottom-right corner was claimed by a black void which the Blue Corner tried to replace. This conflict caused a diplomatic incident that resulted in various anti-blue-corner griefers creating a star lattice in the territory the blue corner tried to claim in order to keep the faction out. The faction attempted to reclaim the bottom-right corner multiple times but was eventually commanded by the ChE commander for that canvas to cease. Despite their ultimately futile efforts, the knights developed a design for the blue-corner that they called the "blues-eye" due to it's similarity to a crash box. This notable feature was destroyed despite it's non-plain design. 
 
Eventually, Canvas 64a expanded giving the canvas a new bottom-right corner for the knights to claim. The knights ended up working with Schlatt & Co. to protect the 3 pixels in the bottom-right of the canvas that the Blue corner claimed. Despite some griefers attacking this small section, the knights were able to retain control of these 3 pixels to the end of the canvas largely because of the presence of the nearby Schlatt coin.
 
== Canvas 65 ==
Because canvas 65 was divided into multiple sub-canvases, there were six pixels which the faction considered potential true corners, all of them on sub-canvases. The bottom-right corners of the main canvas were not considered to be viable by most active members of the faction. Instead of trying to claim every viable corner, the faction claimed every unoccupied viable corner (3 total) and defended each of them till they were taken. One was in the top-right most sub-canvas, another in top-right triangular subcanvas, and the third claimed corner was in the square bottom-left canvas nearest to the main canvas. 
 
The upper square sub-canvas was originally meant to be a lattice made up of multiple copies of the Blues-eye which appeared in canvas 64a, but that was quickly destroyed by a group of griefers led by left. In response, the faction switched to their traditional plain blue corner for most of the canvas. The corners on the two square sub-canvases the knights were present on were eventually claimed by more complex lattices, but the knights reclaimed their territory on the upper triangle sub-canvas despite multiple griefs. Near the end of the canvas, greenwizard changed the plain-blue design of the final claimed corner into a design of alternating stripes of various shades of blue. This final form of the Blue corner remained till the canvas ended.
 
== Canvas 65a ==
On this canvas the Blue Corner made a small, blue, CHE logo near the bottom-right corner of the canvas. By the end, they did not hold the true-corner.
 
== Canvas 66 ==
On Canvas 66 the Knights of the Blue Corner switched to a lattice design made by greenwizard and initially claimed two corners at the bottom-right of the canvas. The Knights of the Blue Corner ceded part of their claimed territory to the Armory, but even with this cession and afew light griefs the Knights of the Blue Corner conquered more territory on this canvas than on all previous canvases combined. After their initial claimed territory was conquered, Scout107 went to other unclaimed true corner candidates and established colonies there. One of these candidates, Garfield Colony, was conquered before a screenshot was taken of it at it's max extent. Scout107 intended to retake it to get a screenshot, but he did not have the time and the other knights did not join in. Another colony: the Striped corner was originally intended to be a single pixel, but Scout expanded it into a striped pattern because he wished to imitate a different striped pattern he saw on canvas. A third colony: Sunset Serenity was designed to be a background to a collection of small artworks that were built in the canvases early history. Even though the true corner was blue, most of Sunset Serenity was dominated by Navy, and the colony never reached the originally intended size. Another colony: the Sixth Corner, was originally intended to be a blues-eye but was expanded and redesigned near the end of the canvas. Scout107 also tried to establish a colony in a section of AbootZ's artwork that was griefed, but he did not realize AbootZ, who had joined the knights, owned the artwork.
 
== Canvas 67 ==
Even though the High Marshall, Scout107, declared that there was no true corner, other Knights, led by the new member PROPLAYEN, began conquering a territory on the bottom of the canvas anyways. Scout107 eventually reversed his decision after he made a large number of 4x4 artworks along the bottom-right edge of the canvas, he declared all the bottom right corners on the canvas to be true and divided the Blue Corner into three territories: the bottomlands, owned by PROPLAYEN, the Gallery, owned by Scout107, and the Ramen_Hairritory, owned by Ramen_Hair. During this canvas, Scout107 transferred ownership of the faction to greenwizard.
 
== Canvas 68 ==
On the second day of the canvas, [[Greenwizard]] claimed a spot which survived for three days before being attacked by [[The Melon Corner]], a faction made by [[Qeao]] to grief [[The Blue Corner]].
 
Greenwizard gave up shortly after due to the lack of support for TBC.
 
With help from various volunteers Melon Corner was defeated by TBC a few days before canvas end.
 
== Canvas 80 ==
After a long hiatus The Blue corner returned, led by [[Revenge666]].
it was griefed heavily by [[Qeao]], but he ceased attacks after a few days.
 
= Government =
The organizational structure of the Knights of the Blue Corner has changed rapidly over the course of it's history. The faction's first leader, Scout107, has exerted a heavy amount of influence within the faction and held the title of High Marshall.  The main power that the High Marshall exercises is the right to determine if and where a viable corner is on the canvas and what is to be done with them. This power is not always practiced as in the case of [[Canvas 65]] when the High Marshall considered the two bottom-right canvases on the main canvas to be viable, but he let the other active members determine if this was the case and they decided against it. 
 
Other members of the faction hold the title of Canvas Marshall, but the title of Canvas marshall is a temporary title that gives a knight control over a particular territory on a particular canvas. Canvas 63 had the most canvas Marshalls as almost every active member on that canvas was a canvas Marshall was a canvas Marshall at one point. There was no Canvas Marshalls during Canvas 65 and 65a, but knights that significantly contributed to the Blue corner on that canvas were given those titles in retrospect.
 
The office of art marshall is a theoretical one that gives a knight the right to decide how their art will be used by the faction, but no member of the faction has been given this title at any point.

The Knights of the Blue Corner (KoTBC or TBC) are a revival of the Blue Corner that began on Canvas 63 and continue to the current canvas. The knights have joined the Chromatic Empire as unique vassals of the Navy Blue Grand Monarchy.

History

Canvas 63

The c63 revival, in some ways, started before Canvas 63. The leader of the revival, Scout107, had joined during Canvas 61 intending to revive the Blue Corner faction as soon as a viable corner appeared. However, a viable corner did not appear until Canvas 63. Scout107 was not active for the first half of the canvas, but when he did join, a little less than halfway through, he set about turning the bottom-right corner of each square blue. This was easy on five of the squares as they were relatively empty, the Purple square even had blue pixels placed by a previous user during the early days of the canvas. However, the Blue Square contained an obstacle that was insurmountable for the faction.

The Blue Square and the PokePxls war

The bottom right corner of the Blue Square was already taken up by an artwork made by PokePxls. Initially, Scout placed a single blue pixel at the true corner of the square, but he slowly expanded until PokePxls reclaimed the corner. He would proceed to grief PokePxls in the region around the true corner afew times until he decided he would try and make a treaty, offering to stop griefing if PokePxls would let him have the 1 pixel that he considered to be the true corner. The faction flatly refused this offer and instead griefed the corners on the other squares. In order to add to his numbers and revive the Blue Corner faction, Scout107 began to post on the Blue Corner Subreddit to rally reinforcements, but he soon realized this was not enough to fight off PokePxls, so he tried to make peace with Pokepxls. The conflict slowly died down until the peace was finalized when The Blue Corner joined the Chromatic Empire.

The Blue Corner Civil War

Around the time the Blue Corner joined the Chromatic Empire, one of the users that had joined The Blue Corner, CreepyFR, took de-facto control of the corner on the orange square. Eventually, he expanded into Roger's cap which was just above it. Scout107 disapproved of this action and fixed the artwork and he tried to get CreepyFR on his side. To do this, Scout107 officially recognized CreepyFR's control of the corner on the Orange Square by making him the faction's first canvas Marshall as he hoped working more closely with him would allow him to prevent CreepyFR from getting the faction into unwanted wars and would make it easier to get him to agree to the two principles Scout wanted to establish to guide the faction: keep the true corner Blue, no unnecessary aggression.

CreepyFR would continue to expand into Cappy and other members of the faction would continue to fix it and Scout would continue to try and get him to stop. Eventually this conflict caused Scout to threaten to ban CreepyFR from the faction. CreepyFR then chose to leave the faction and join the defunct Blue Corner faction since he could not yet make his own. At this time, the primary faction of this revival was named The Blue Corner and it's abbreviation was TBC. The similarity between the names of the "Blue Corner" and "The Blue Corner" became a source of friction as the faction sought to enter the Chromatic Empire, so the faction would rename itself as "The Knights of the Blue Corner".

Even though CreepyFR had left the faction, the Knights did not immediately reclaim the corner on the orange square saying that it belonged to CreepyFR, not their faction. However, in order to achieve their goal of making all 6 bottom right corners on the canvas blue, they would decide to protect the corner "under the cap" but would not help or hinder CreepyFR's expansion "over the cap" unless he expanded into artworks. If he expanded into artworks, particularly the cap, they would fight against him and rebuild the artworks.

Eventually, Scout recognized that CreepyFR was no longer active so he decided that it was safe to reclaim the territory. He announced his plan to the faction and said he would give the corner to the person who made a small artpiece in the territory. The corner was claimed by Valbor who built a snowflake in the territory to mark it as his own.

Griefers

In the midst of these conflicts, and after they ended, the Blue corner was constantly attacked by a miscellaneous group of griefers who were generally active in game-chat. There we're multiple times they tried to turn the corners red, other times they would change the word "BLUE" which was written in each corner to "BOOB". The Blue Corner recieved essential help from the Chromatic Empire all throughout these conflicts. Scout107 would also spend a significant amount of time negotiating with the griefers on game chat, making truces, and sometimes permanent peace. Even though this was an effective way to end conflicts in the short term, it is very likely that the constant presence of Scout and other Knights of the Blue Corner in game-chat contributed to the annoyance with the faction that led to people joining the group of griefers.

The Green Corner

The most significant griefer during Canvas 63 was left, owner of Frog Pixels United, who started griefing the corner on the orange square by acing green pixels on it during the last few days of the event. Left was initially unsuccessful, but eventually he was able to turn the entire region green. This grief was the cleaned up by the combined efforts of the Knights and the Chromatic Empire. However, due to a treaty between Left's faction and the ChE, PineApple (Liam) decided that the Chromatic Empire would not defend the Green Corner, a decision which did not please either the Knights or the Empire at the time. Left would retake the corner on the orange square and, after a brief conflict, the Knights let him have it in exchange for peace.

The Red Square.

The Blue Corner on the Red Square was owned by Green Wizard who claimed it by placing the "Buddy" artwork in that region, becoming it's canvas Marshall. He made an alliance with the Bubbles faction to the north.


The three other artworks in this corner were made to make peace with griefers. The two my little ponies were made by the griefer Revenge666, and they were approved by the knights at first to appease him and then to comply with Imperial reforms. The other artwork, the Blue frog, was made to make peace with frisk as an alternative to his previous condition to stop griefing, that the word "BLUE" in that corner be changed to "BOOB".

The Yellow Square (Scout107)

The yellow square was claimed by Scout107 who initially drew an abstract scene representing two boats sailing into a storm and three swans flying away. This monochromatic artwork turned out to be too difficult to protect as it was easy to grief and allies mistook the abstract art for incomplete expansion. Eventually Scout decided preserving this art was too difficult, so he let his allies fill the corner in and then tried to draw the scene of Jonah and the Whale in the space that was left. He successfully drew the whale, but he gave up on drawing Jonah, leaving the whale as the only artpiece in the corner.

The Green Square (Scout107)

Despite the fact that a pattern of autumn leaves covered most of the green square in the final Canvas, Scout107 did ensure that there was 1 blue pixel in the bottom right of the Green square by getting approval from the owner of the art, Nanieye. This pixel was griefed multiple times, generally by revenge666, but it was generally left alone. The Knights of the Blue Corner were forbidden to discuss the pixel publicly after the deal was made to avoid drawing attention to it.

The Purple Square (Valbor)

The purple square was claimed by Valbor who drew a cyan amongus looking into a cyan mirror in order to claim the square. Notably, Valbor is the only person besides Scout to have controlled more than one corner during Canvas 63 as he was also the canvas Marshall of the Orange Square after the Knights of the Blue Corner officially reclaimed it.

The purple square is also notable because nearly half of the corner's final territory was filled out before Scout claimed the corner for himself and expanded it at the start of the revival. Because most of the other corners practically started from scratch, this made the purple corner the largest Blue Corner on Canvas 63 before the start of the revival, and also the oldest, unless the Blue Square is counted.

Canvas 64

Because the last days of Canvas 63 were filled with conflict and we're quite stressful, the knights chose to rest as much as they could on this canvas, but they were griefed nonetheless, though not as constantly. The central design of the Blue Corner at this time was a knight which was made by Meepleomg. He had made the same design on the previous canvas near the location of the corner on the Yellow Square, but at that time it was black and white and not faction territory. The faction worked together to build this one piece of art and then just didn't expand, atleast not at first.

The Teal Corner

At the start of canvas 64, HentaiLover claimed to lead a faction called the teal corner who's goal was to turn the Blue Corner teal. He eventually did change the Blue Corner into the teal corner and recolored the knight, but he did this for the sole purpose of getting a screenshot and creating drama which could be written about later, so the knights made a truce, because he was persistent, allowing him to recolor the knight on the condition that he wouldn't change the color of the true corner until the very end. After he was finished, the knights reclaimed their artwork.

Canine's expansion

While they were cleaning up the mess this caused, other people began to grief the Blue Corner. Eventually, a user name Canine began to create art right beside the knight and he was confused for a griefer. Once his intentions to build a dog were clear, he was allowed to make his artwork. Then he repeated this artwork and made a line of dogs which stretched across the bottom of the canvas until it reached the other side of Pokepxls art on Canvas 64. while he was making more dogs, he was also turning the background around his dogs blue, singlehandedly doing more to expand the Blue Corner than all members of the faction combined even though he was not a knight of the Blue corner. This would encourage more knights to slowly expand the Blue Corner themselves.

Teal corner

The corner would later be attacked by HentaiLover and Revenge666 who took over canines expansion and made it teal. The Chromatic Empire intervened and created a border and a treaty with the invaders. This deal was quickly approved by the Knights of the Blue Corner since they only took territory that was part of Canine's expansion rather than actual territory owned by the faction.

Reset Grief

In the last minute of the canvas, revenge666 was griefing the pixel the knights had designated as the true corner and was being fought by Scout107. At the very last second of the canvas, revenge666 placed a pixel on the true corner. Scout107 was unable to place a pixel before the canvas refreshed.

Canvas 64a

The bottom-right corner was claimed by a black void which the Blue Corner tried to replace. This conflict caused a diplomatic incident that resulted in various anti-blue-corner griefers creating a star lattice in the territory the blue corner tried to claim in order to keep the faction out. The faction attempted to reclaim the bottom-right corner multiple times but was eventually commanded by the ChE commander for that canvas to cease. Despite their ultimately futile efforts, the knights developed a design for the blue-corner that they called the "blues-eye" due to it's similarity to a crash box. This notable feature was destroyed despite it's non-plain design.

Eventually, Canvas 64a expanded giving the canvas a new bottom-right corner for the knights to claim. The knights ended up working with Schlatt & Co. to protect the 3 pixels in the bottom-right of the canvas that the Blue corner claimed. Despite some griefers attacking this small section, the knights were able to retain control of these 3 pixels to the end of the canvas largely because of the presence of the nearby Schlatt coin.

Canvas 65

Because canvas 65 was divided into multiple sub-canvases, there were six pixels which the faction considered potential true corners, all of them on sub-canvases. The bottom-right corners of the main canvas were not considered to be viable by most active members of the faction. Instead of trying to claim every viable corner, the faction claimed every unoccupied viable corner (3 total) and defended each of them till they were taken. One was in the top-right most sub-canvas, another in top-right triangular subcanvas, and the third claimed corner was in the square bottom-left canvas nearest to the main canvas.

The upper square sub-canvas was originally meant to be a lattice made up of multiple copies of the Blues-eye which appeared in canvas 64a, but that was quickly destroyed by a group of griefers led by left. In response, the faction switched to their traditional plain blue corner for most of the canvas. The corners on the two square sub-canvases the knights were present on were eventually claimed by more complex lattices, but the knights reclaimed their territory on the upper triangle sub-canvas despite multiple griefs. Near the end of the canvas, greenwizard changed the plain-blue design of the final claimed corner into a design of alternating stripes of various shades of blue. This final form of the Blue corner remained till the canvas ended.

Canvas 65a

On this canvas the Blue Corner made a small, blue, CHE logo near the bottom-right corner of the canvas. By the end, they did not hold the true-corner.

Canvas 66

On Canvas 66 the Knights of the Blue Corner switched to a lattice design made by greenwizard and initially claimed two corners at the bottom-right of the canvas. The Knights of the Blue Corner ceded part of their claimed territory to the Armory, but even with this cession and afew light griefs the Knights of the Blue Corner conquered more territory on this canvas than on all previous canvases combined. After their initial claimed territory was conquered, Scout107 went to other unclaimed true corner candidates and established colonies there. One of these candidates, Garfield Colony, was conquered before a screenshot was taken of it at it's max extent. Scout107 intended to retake it to get a screenshot, but he did not have the time and the other knights did not join in. Another colony: the Striped corner was originally intended to be a single pixel, but Scout expanded it into a striped pattern because he wished to imitate a different striped pattern he saw on canvas. A third colony: Sunset Serenity was designed to be a background to a collection of small artworks that were built in the canvases early history. Even though the true corner was blue, most of Sunset Serenity was dominated by Navy, and the colony never reached the originally intended size. Another colony: the Sixth Corner, was originally intended to be a blues-eye but was expanded and redesigned near the end of the canvas. Scout107 also tried to establish a colony in a section of AbootZ's artwork that was griefed, but he did not realize AbootZ, who had joined the knights, owned the artwork.

Canvas 67

Even though the High Marshall, Scout107, declared that there was no true corner, other Knights, led by the new member PROPLAYEN, began conquering a territory on the bottom of the canvas anyways. Scout107 eventually reversed his decision after he made a large number of 4x4 artworks along the bottom-right edge of the canvas, he declared all the bottom right corners on the canvas to be true and divided the Blue Corner into three territories: the bottomlands, owned by PROPLAYEN, the Gallery, owned by Scout107, and the Ramen_Hairritory, owned by Ramen_Hair. During this canvas, Scout107 transferred ownership of the faction to greenwizard.

Canvas 68

On the second day of the canvas, Greenwizard claimed a spot which survived for three days before being attacked by The Melon Corner, a faction made by Qeao to grief The Blue Corner.

Greenwizard gave up shortly after due to the lack of support for TBC.

With help from various volunteers Melon Corner was defeated by TBC a few days before canvas end.

Canvas 80

After a long hiatus The Blue corner returned, led by Revenge666. it was griefed heavily by Qeao, but he ceased attacks after a few days.

Government

The organizational structure of the Knights of the Blue Corner has changed rapidly over the course of it's history. The faction's first leader, Scout107, has exerted a heavy amount of influence within the faction and held the title of High Marshall. The main power that the High Marshall exercises is the right to determine if and where a viable corner is on the canvas and what is to be done with them. This power is not always practiced as in the case of Canvas 65 when the High Marshall considered the two bottom-right canvases on the main canvas to be viable, but he let the other active members determine if this was the case and they decided against it.

Other members of the faction hold the title of Canvas Marshall, but the title of Canvas marshall is a temporary title that gives a knight control over a particular territory on a particular canvas. Canvas 63 had the most canvas Marshalls as almost every active member on that canvas was a canvas Marshall was a canvas Marshall at one point. There was no Canvas Marshalls during Canvas 65 and 65a, but knights that significantly contributed to the Blue corner on that canvas were given those titles in retrospect.

The office of art marshall is a theoretical one that gives a knight the right to decide how their art will be used by the faction, but no member of the faction has been given this title at any point.
