The SPACE (II) Apocalypse! Experience life in dot pixels

The real rogue landlord appeared!

In a far corner of the depths of the universe, there is a quiet village suspended in the ether. The birds and flowers are fragrant in the countryside there, the bridges in the villages and towns there are flowing water, and the villagers there live and work in peace and contentment - they go to applaud their neighbors when they have nothing to do, and get some Like Coins as a reward...

However, this peaceful and beautiful life was suddenly broken one day in April——

Come on people! Catch the hooligans! ! !

An inexplicable phallus suddenly fell from the sky, right in the hands of our Liker! ! ! !

"Clap hands - turn praise into appreciation" instantly turned into "rub hands - refresh me"! ! ! !

At the same time, there was also a system bug in Qingtian Palm, which summoned love in the center of the universe. It did not attract much love, but it attracted two giant tits! ! ! !

I'm going to cue my idol Elizabeth Gilbert again for translation practice 😂 In the book "Big Magic" she says, "Go and create, you don't need anyone's permission":

Humans have been around as creative creatures for a long, long time—so long that "I want to be creative" feels like a natural impulse. To give you an idea: the earliest human art dates back 40,000 years, while the earliest records of farming are only 10,000 years old. This suggests that, at some point in evolutionary history, we decided that spending time on pompous stuff was more important than focusing on filling our stomachs every day .

My idol is a prankster 🤣

Our creative expression is diverse. Some works are sacred and ethereal, and will last forever. Some works are heart-shattering and tear-jerking. But there are also many works that are lackluster. Some artistic expressions may fascinate you, but in my opinion are boring to death. Some magnificent creations have consumed generations and hundreds of years, and they may indeed have been born from a pious and solemn heart, but they are not necessarily so. More often than not, art is just a distraction for people to spend their time doing—making the pottery a little prettier, polishing the chairs a little more comfortable, or painting big dicks on the wall to kill time. definitely no problem.

Do you want to write a book? Write songs? filming? Decorative porcelain? Dance? Adventure? Painting a big dick on your wall? Do it! Nobody cares about you. It's your birthright, so go ahead and do it with joy! (I mean, take it seriously, but don't take it too seriously!) Let your inspiration take you wherever it wants to go. Remember, most of the time in our long history, our ancestors did what they thought, without the slightest bit of tweaking that we moderns have.

But what my idol said was "paint a big dick on your wall ". If you draw big dicks in public spaces and you still smear our favorite "clapping hands - turn it into a compliment", we're not going to be happy!

Moreover, you are not good, and the price is too high. It seems that you are going to occupy the cheap land resources in the SPACE countryside and use it to develop houses and yellow pollution!

Fortunately! The "Clap Your Hands - Turn Appreciation into Appreciation" Village has never been short of creative people:

But don't forget, SPACE Township is a place that worships mathematics more than aesthetics!

Creative people are always poorer than landlord bullies, so when they grab the land... they always don't have enough money 🤣 (Ouch so sad!!)

Learning tax is everyone's responsibility!

In this reincarnation, SPACE Township has evolved the function of clearing taxes, that is to say, it can make bully landlords pay huge taxes until they go bankrupt. But this function is super weak - the system can't clear it by itself, and we villagers are asked to clear it by ourselves!

The villagers of "Clap Hands - Turning Appreciation into Appreciation" have been in SPACE Township for the longest time, and of course they are all great! They discussed this:

Eh! Pay attention to the last KUAN! He is very funny.

We have never seen him before in our "Clap Hands - Turning Appreciation into Appreciation" village, but he came over to discuss pricing, land sales, tax clearance rules with us very seriously... Barabara, all kinds of ways.

Then I came up with this kind of left-handed fight:

Please, big brother! If you want to play with pixels so much, please move to Pixel Art Maker ?

Then, suddenly @cauliflowerDenken decided to shoot:

Eh? Eh? Eh? ! ! ! ! !

What are you doing? What are you doing? ? ? ! ! !

Ouch!

It turns out that this @kuannnn is the real hooligan ! ! ! !

New tax officer debuts

Synopsis: Remember the rogue landlord by the Yangming Lake that summer @swiftevo? Now that I think about it, people just painted Mao Maoyan to make money that year, but they were not hooligans at all!

In a parallel universe, rogue landlords will also turn into tax officials to combat local tyrants and confiscation of land.

After @cauliflowerDenken exorcised the filthy bully, @swiftevo summed up her experience and wrote a tutorial for everyone to learn about tax collection : it's a slow tax clearance process...you'll know after reading the tutorial, To clear the tax on a pixel, you have to do the math!

At this time, the bankrupt @kuannnn decided to repent and start a new life, so he wrote a contract to clear taxes in batches......

Tax instructor @swiftevo teaches you how to raid your home! !

I am eager to learn and smart, learn it immediately! Then I slipped my hand and wiped myself out...

In short, after countless discussions with laughter and tears, KUAN successfully landed, transformed from a yellow and dirty bully, and was promoted to the tax officer of this issue of SPACE together with Shift and Swiftevo! !

The prodigal son can't change the money when he comes back! ! ! Sprinkle flowers! ! ! ✨

If you are also involved in tax clearance work, please go to https://discord.gg/KrqVSNKW to go to Shift to get the tax clearance officer commemorative medal NFT made by him!

The persistence of the Eight Immortals and the self-cultivation of 🌈

At the end of this epic masterpiece of mine, I would like to leave some pages for those who have no ups and downs, but only silently guard their original aspirations.

Immortal Grass and Eight Immortals...Although I don't know what DAO they are doing (I joined their Discord and looked around and found that I couldn't understand it!) But they are really super team spirits! Among all the DAOs invited to play in SPACE, it can be said to be the most persistent group. On the first day, I took up the space and started to draw my own logo. I also went to our voice channel to play nostalgic Cantonese songs while chatting and asking who had dinner and who should go to bed. It started like this at SPACE. own name!

The tree attracts the wind, the Eight Immortals were actually attacked by the filthy bullies on the first day. Even after the tax collectors came down and let them regain lost ground, their logos continued to be painted over and drive up low prices. However, they guarded their territory like this, tirelessly cleaning up the dirty pixels, and persisted until the end of the game!

Forming a group is to form with this kind of DAO with a group spirit! real!

The opposite of the Eight Immortals' persistence is 🌈I myself.

I am a lone wolf...

I will not form a group.

When I was researching Reddit r/place before, I was yearning for their rainbow group: the drawing is simple but very recognizable, the shape can be changed a lot, and it will not be disfigured when attacked... You don't have to stick to any territory, but it seems to be very Penetration and toughness.

So at the beginning of the game, I decided to make a rainbow.

When I started to point the pixels, I also set several prices ranging from 15 to 100. Later, I felt why it was too slow to light up. If you have time to change the price, it is better to go ahead and buy it at the original price when the price is right. If it is too expensive or someone else can draw it, I will avoid it - click fast to quickly pull out the color 🌈 .

Of course, this strategy is not the most profitable strategy, and for some people, it lacks the excitement of attracting wealth. But I really don't seem to be too interested in making a lot of money. The wallet balance is just a number, as long as I can continue to draw rainbows, this has already completed the meaning of my existence in this game!

In martial arts (listen to Bruce Lee's nonsense 😂), this is called be water , my friend.

In design, this is called modular design

In war, this is called guerrilla warfare .

In political campaigns, this is called nonviolent noncooperation .

I thought I could be a ronin warrior and live in such poverty and style...

But what I didn't expect was...

The game's Universal Income miscalculated and everyone didn't receive enough relief money!

Just like that, I, who just drew a few rainbows, paid my taxes and went bankrupt before the game ended in 15 hours, and now I have been expelled from SPACE Township as a proletariat! ! Damn capitalist society!
