The 5th canvas saw the joining together of several factions to keep an orderly central region of the canvas; Blue Lattice, RGB Lattice, Cell Lattice, and the Ukrainian faction which ended up building a fort. It also saw an attempt at building a Confederate Battle Flag - which was quickly squashed and drawn over by the LGBT lattice and others.
The canvas also saw the exposure of bots, made more clear by the reduced number of users on the canvas.
An ancom/ancap/an* flag was, as is tradition, a target of change. As was the world map, with different nationalities having different world views and expressing them onto the map. These resulted in some of the brightest regions in the heat map.
The server logs for the 5h canvas were publicly released, with usernames removed. See the analysis section on the fiddle archives for more information.
The meme phrase used among the community, "Multi-accounting is a sin!" has its origins in this canvas. User Atomic10 created a speech bubble with the words after admitting to utilizing more than one account. Because of the heavy anti-bot and anti-multi-account sentiment during this canvas, it was used as a custom emote for the Pxls Discord server, and remains in use to this day.
Details:
The size of the canvas is 1200x675 and all of the 810,000 total pixels are placeable.
