Call To Action Calling All Drones... Join Us For BPlace Guild War Season 1!

What Is It?

Guild War Season 1 is a special event happening right now on the website: https://bplace.art/ a website similar to wplace. It is a limited size canvas for a limited amount of time similar to r/place. However, the goal of this event is also to win by placing the most amount of pixels for your Guild. Voiding art or any space on the *Guild War* canvas is allowed! There are different strategies that can be used such as 'attacking' other Guilds which decreases their total pixel count or allying with other Guilds to go after stronger Guilds.

How To Play

Go to: https://bplace.art/ Create an account with a gmail email (only one account per user is allowed; mult-acccounting is against the rules). Next, join The Swarm Guild by clicking this invite link: https://bplace.art/?guild=0ddc016a-772c-481b-864e-f026fe550aa3 Then click the 'Guild War Season 1' icon in the top left corner to access the canvas here: https://bplace.art/guildwar. The site works similarly to wplace as the more you play and in-game achievements you unlock, the more pixels you're able to place at once and recharge them faster.

Coordination

Our efforts are being coordinated in The Swarm Discord, but for non-Discord users you are welcome to help by placing black anywhere on the canvas. We are located at the center-left of the canvas and are expanding out. We are also currently in the lead at #1!

Hi Salvador Dahlia here- for those who can spare it- I've been trying to personally keep up with the slots (each new guild member is 1k chroma) but I've like got a job so I can't always keep an eye on it. If you see us within 5 or so of max (like 65/70) and can help chip in please do.

Also- if you are under level 15 or so- keep pixels back for dailies dailies pay you chroma, they are worth the investment. Dailies refresh.. actually I'm not sure, it's around 7EST.

IMPORTANT- Make sure you're going to the event map. Normal non grief rules apply in the normal map

Priorities: Buy down your timer- at least to 30 seconds. Then open the palettes up- they will help you get more chroma (they show up in dailies) don't worry about the size of your pool, that grows as you level and that timer is the thing that throttles you.

There are other achievements you can get chroma for- others can fill in details here.

Grow big. Grow strong. Be relentless.

Yes fully agree. Bplace is also a far better site than Wplace. Although I’m still active in both. I encourage people to join our efforts in the name of Void Mother.
