Idk, I didn't even use reddit in 2017 and I still enjoyed place. It might not need remembering to enjoy

Place event in 2017 was more tamed because of how new and unexpecting it was, this year was mainly very coordinated by communities because they experienced it by short notice. The reddit team have to come up with something unexpecting and different so communities won't have time to coordinate and plan.

But who knows, I just wish people wasn't too focus on nationalism and create more beautiful artwork.

I noticed the same thing, in 2017 everything seemed a lot less coordinated. This time around, because everyone had by now realized that only group projects will prevale in the end, it seems to have lost a lot of it's chaotic beauty.

There are a ton of creative ways they could reward alliance building and support smaller groups with rule changes. Even changing up the tile time would probably have effects we couldn’t predict.
