/r/wales and /faroeislands had a mutual defense pact, enabling both (small in terms of Reddit) communities to punch above their weight.

It was great fun, fighting off trolls and attempts by other subreddits to aquire further real estate for themselves.

/u/SCtester cleaned up the final image to fix up (ed: some of) the in-progress and rogue pixels and damage by the "void" group.

There are several errors in his fixup, "Hypercum" being an example. /r/Scotland got lucky at lock-time, they came closer to being Scatland.

Reading through the conversation on this stuff, I'm wondering if this weird combination of amusement and befuddlement is how my parents felt when I was telling them about my online activities back in the early 90s.
Wait until you hear about how 4chan's My Little Pony and Politically Incorrect(read: Nazis) became friends after this year's April Fools prank.
Did you read about how /pol/ trolled Shia LaBeouf's "He Will Not Divide Us" project?
As a Welsh guy, can i just say all Welsh people are stubborn as fuck and never surrender? Cymru am byth!
