r/place 2022
The 86: Eighty Six r/place 2022 team
The 86: Eighty Six r/place 2022 team (which existed out of people from the official subreddit and the official Discord) managed to make 3 "art pieces" on the canvas. The exact size of the 86: Eighty Six r/place 2022 team is unknown but estimations are somewhere between 50 and 150 people.
It all started with the Reddit user u/Elevatorisbest (who also goes by u/Orleniscool) who made a post in the r/EightySix subreddit a couple days before the start of r/place 2022, about the fact that all the people in the subreddit should unite and try to make 86: Eighty Six a part of it.4
A couple hours after the start u/TsuyoshiHaruka made a post in the r/EightySix subreddit about the fact that he added "86" on to the canvas.5 Discord quickly users created a thread to discuss the plans for the "art", and that thread became the base for the final result we can see now.
