For at least a few seconds it was an odd game of phallus or frame.

Yeah, there really needed to be some voting or other feedback system to encourage consistency over time.

This is a mildly interesting experiment that largely just looks like a failure at the moment.

Yeah I agree, there should be a voting system that can kick out bogus frames and have someone remake them, would be really interesting to see what it’d look like if everyone was trying to recreate it. Kind of like rotoscoping I suppose. As it is, there’s just a ton of discontinuity because of the troll frames.

I imagine that trolls would eventually band together to try to steamroll the voting system like it happens on r/Place. Maybe.

If votes are attributable, such voting rings should be easily detectable

This is a fascinating idea. Sort of like a wikipedia, but trying to establish the truth of a single movie rather than everything we know.

It would probably end up needing moderators, harassing people for funding, and pay for political purposes as well as its core reason for existing :)
