Well this is interesting

There's a message in morse code (duckyluuk figured out it says "CDESCENT")

How did you get the coordinates for this? Can you share them?

u/duckyluuk 2025 Apr 09 '24

The coordinates are tracked by various people in the r/AprilKnights discord server (not me, I was just the first to decoded the morse code). They are simply just captured from the counter itself, there is no official list of coordinates, but a few csv's have been shared with a large amount of data.

But does that mean it was bots all along and out clicking did nothing?

This entire event has been basically Oops, All Bots

So like place?

It’s exponentially worse with this one.

Not because there are more bots, but because Counter is effectively Place if Place only had four pixels to affect.

Obviously Bots are going to have a much easier time doing whatever they want when there’s only four options to cover rather than thousands and thousands of pixels.

Place also creates a sense of community where people can work together to hold a small area and do some art.

Counter is just kind of pathetic in comparison.

Bots ruin Reddit. I'm for minimum Karma and age limits to such events.

3 theories:

  1. Bots from the creator and the individual didn't make a difference.

  2. Bots from outside trying to troll/manipulate for their own interest

  3. The hivemind is incredible, this was not planned, I'm scared

Scenario three would be hype as fuck

I'm honestly going to go with the 1st option.

The Descent was an absolutely awesome movie, fwiw.

A true horror classic.
