The r/PictureGame birb was one of the first completed artworks on r/place, with the basic outline completed less than an hour into the experiment, and the background by 1:50. As a result, it was highly edited outside members of the community, gaining additional features at this time, such as a beak, wings, and legs (making the bird look more like a toucan). The beak encroached on the westward neighbors in r/Superstonk, who built around the beak at the time.

The beak encroached on the westward neighbors in r/Superstonk, who built around the beak at the time. It was confirmed that the beak was not part of the bird's design, and by 2:30 the beak was subsumed by the Superstonk rectangle. Later, at around 8:30, a treaty was made with r/Superstonk to protect one black pixel at (908,825), in exchange for r/PictureGame members helping defend the general area from vandalism. | ||
Attempts at writing the subreddit name were more difficult. Initially, the subreddit tried to write out the name in full (at around 3:46), but efforts were lost due to an advancing blue wall, which later would turn out to be the claim of [[WCUE]]. Additionally, [[r/fuckcars]] approached from the top, at 5:30, and [[placeDE]]'s German flag continued past Superstonk's rectangle and served as a background for the birb. The [[OMORI]] community to the right would serve as the major power in the area, and borders with r/fuckcars and placeDE were established, as well as organizing the boundaries for the PictureGame birb and the WCUE cat. The background in the area was changed to white, to match the aesthetic of OMORI. | Attempts at writing the subreddit name were more difficult.

Further developments in the original birb were relatively minor; a heart between Scotland and r/PictureGame was created at (914,853) around 51:45. Instead, efforts were devoted to creating a second base in the second expansion area, partly due to fears of the original birb being blacked out by the void in the final hours of the canvas due to its now fairly central position of the canvas. | Further developments in the original birb were relatively minor; a heart between Scotland and r/PictureGame was created at (914,853) around 51:45.

Initially, the plan was to stake out a claim next to PictureGame's good allies OMORI and Scotland around (1803,1565).

However, there were several other groups also going for the same spot ([[OneShot]]'s drawing of Niko, as well as a veganism ad). The veganism ad won out, and PictureGame had to look for a new location. (1351,1188) was suggested as a fairly safe location nestled between three country flags, though ultimately a group representing the VTuber [[Nekomata Okayu]] won out. The final location, at (1582, 1276) was also not without its struggles. Initially, the second [[Etika]] memorial sought to take the land, but eventually settled on drawing their rendition of Red Robin west of PictureGame's box. Also, [[Hytale]] wanted the land, but PictureGame fought for the land and won after settling with Hytale. The disagreement arose because PictureGame had already started developing the area over 30 minutes before Hytale, but Hytale contacted the local power [[One Piece]] earlier. | ||
Due to the length of the battle, some other groups, such as the [[CSGO surf ramp]] and [[SynapseX]] started to draw in the area, but the conflict was resolved relatively smoothly. Additionally, PictureGame agreed to help relocate the CSGO surf ramp drawing (at around 60:30) to a different location. One person named Hopper also wanted to draw out their name in the canvas temporarily, which was completed at 63:50. Afterwards, the planned picture was slowly built and finished at 66:15. Other than that, the frame remained intact until [[The Great Whiteout]], with only a few small attacks aside from fighting off minor incursions along the edge. PictureGame members instead helped out neighbors next to the frame, including helping clean up vandalism on Red Robin as well as helping [[Haskell]] southward of that. | Due to the length of the battle, some other groups, such as the [[CSGO surf ramp]] and [[SynapseX]] started to draw in the area, but the conflict was resolved relatively smoothly.
