My favorite subreddit (r/2007scape) went head-to-head against r/The_donald for the top left corner. Right now it's "connection lost - please wait, attempting to reestablish" but apparently the_Donald wanted to make it an American flag, and things got pretty heated.

We won :)

I didn't know about the competition against /r/t_d, but the sheer amount of threads on Sunday in /r/2007scape about defending and call to arms is what was beginning to aggravate me. I think there were 5 actual posts about the game or discussions on their front page, and 20 about /r/Place.

Yea they really wanted to win. Honestly it was pretty frustrating because I rely on them for 87% of my meme consumption, but I'm glad that we won a "place" on /r/place
