       Looking at r/place, wondered How many crooks does it take to spoil a cooperative job.Came up with this modelHave 3 types of actors, trying to make an image1. Fixers - have the final image, take a bad pixel and fix it.2. Followers - look at the last updated pixel, choose neighbor and place average pixel.3. Fuckers - They place a completely random pixelLook at the distance between the actual vs target pictures with timeImage is representative of the job.@urusan you may be interested?

       @dhruvasambrani Not entirely sure the context here.Looking at r/place a bit, it's an interesting cooperative game.Wouldn't there be fixers working at cross purposes to each other (two different final images in mind)?

       @urusan yup, they will, but the fixers of other images are, atleast for the particular target image, just like fuckers.A friend of mine actually triggered this. He changed r/linux to r/linox which was promptly fixed by someone to r/linux again, so I wondered how many you need.This I feel is also a nice toy model to see how the job is completed, say in open source, where fixers are devs, followers are users/issue openers and fuckers are I suppose bad devs/hackers.
