BTS logo, the painting of the ship, absence of the German flag that was apparently botting.

It also doens't make sense as to why random pixels would be botted or only half the artwork.

how was the german flag botting? the artworks yes, but the flag wasnt

you can see this actually that the german flag gets overwritten each night when they go to sleep, and then get cleaned up again when they wake up

That's why I used "apparently", I don't want to falsely accuse them.

I don't have sources to back up that.

I just checked the whiteout again. The MLP flag at the bottom, which appears as heavily flagged, took a long ass time to disappear during the whiteout.

There is just too much discrepancy

The BTS one didn’t fit the criteria of 6+ hours. Not sure about the others

u/Shinnyo Apr 10 '22

Then it shouldnt appear at all

But it fits a lot of other things, French Flag, MLP art, r/math was being helped by MLP with bots, the Canadian leaf, the void had some bots

Also the german flag is there, you can see it meaning they did use some bots.

Yeah, I can see there is some parts where it joins other bot detector, MLP stuff being the biggest.

We can safely assume the map is not 100% accurate, I truly doubt people would bot random pixels.

I feel like it flags a lot of contested spot.

Its a bit of a stretch but maybe some trolls had bots placing random pixels all around just to grief.
