View source for Voids

Voids are lazy, unoriginal, massive blobs containing nothing more than some random color from the pallette. Nobody cares about voids and how they work since everyone wants to draw art without being interrupted from voids. Voids could also be used as a powerful tool to attack another faction, used by factions like [[Apod]] and [[Paint et al]].

==Description==
Voids do not require a significant amount of effort to place. A small team consisting of an insignificant number of people can place blobs of one color in a period of time far smaller than the time it takes to draw something complex and decorated. As such, you are able to attack your enemy far more efficiently by spamming the same one color instead of meticulously picking out the spot for a color and placing it accordingly.

To do: the math behind this

==List of voids==

===Single-color voids===
====Black voids====
 [[File:Black void.jpg|thumb|A typical black void consuming a flag in July 2023]]
The most common, and usually most successful, type of void. Has a massively negative reputation.
====White voids====
A void encountered at the end of an r/place event. Nobody makes these intentionally; white voids are almost always created as a side effect of administrators removing something from the canvas or at the end of the lifetime of a canvas. They are able to easily kill the website, notably doing just that between January and February 2023.
====Blue Corner====
A meme void which usually occupies the lower-right corner of the canvas.
====Red Corner====
"Counter-meme" against the blue corner. Usually seen in the top left corner of the canvas.
====Floods====
A form of void created on the r/place event which involves "flooding" an area with blue "water." 

===Two-color voids===
====Missing Texture====
A checkerboard void, appearing as either a traditional pink-black "missing texture" pattern or as a light gray-white PNG background texture. Created by [[J.anon]] and supported by [[insertnamehere]]
====Grids====

Not much is known about grid voids.
====Checkerboards====

The most common form of void or background aside from single-color voids. Notably, checkerboards are the simplest of patterns to build, with construction being almost as simple as a single color in an area.

===Patterned voids===
Being arguably the highest-effort void to make, often done for decoration or background usage, patterned voids aren't often seen in r/place.
====Green Lattice====
The Lattice was established on the official Reddit r/place with peace promised to all. On r/place2, the Green Lattice was notorious for excessive, unfair botting activity on all canvases.
====Labyrinth====

Labyrinths were a trendy form of void in early 2023. All were ultimately messily stacked on top of each other before getting destroyed by Turkish cheaters.
====Rainbow====
The void that formed the background of the Rainbow Road area as well as reclaiming the lower right corner of Canvas 2 in July-August of 2022.

===Image voids===
Repetitive voids for autists who want to draw their art more than once for some reason
====Crying smiley====
Unsurprisingly got griefed
====Rats====
====Among Us====
A void on Canvas 2 collectively done by the few most active people in order to reset a heavily-griefed, barren area.
