Just to put it into perspective, r/Polandball has now more subscribers than the population of Gibraltar. We're also bigger than Palau and the Åland Islands, and bigger than the populations of Tuvalu, Nauru and the Falkland Islands ^and ^Sealand together, all of which you may recognize from previous comics. Just a few more weeks, and we'll be bigger than San Marino, Monaco and Liechtenstien!

r/Polandball can into relevant!

u/TerraMaris Sep 01 '13

Uh oh. Nothing should be bigger than Sealand. Must make census to prove that we are larger. Sealand BIG.

28

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

Just kidnap some more unrelevant Pacific islands.

16

u/TerraMaris Sep 01 '13

That comic is not based upon real events.

2

u/second_to_fun Sep 01 '13

Also, Sealand does not have Nauru. Go away.

17

u/Gustavobc Sep 01 '13 edited Sep 01 '13

TIL I live in a city over 4 times larger than Gibraltar, Palau, the Åland Islands, Tuvalu, Nauru, the Falkland Islands and Sealand combined.

10

u/Rift28 Sep 01 '13

My city's population surpass Poland's and Argentina's huehuehue

8

u/mszegedy Sep 02 '13

Sealand is kind of a freebie for combined population. "What's the population of China?" "It's bigger than the population of India, the east coast of the US, and Sealand combined."

u/TerraMaris Sep 01 '13

One step closer to the ultimate goal.

22

u/Oshawott3 Sep 01 '13

You spelled "impossible" WAY wrong.

u/Burnttoaster10 Sep 02 '13

wait it's not world domination?

u/Xistinas Sep 01 '13

Felicidades r/polandball :D!

Also grabbed a screenshot

u/Gustavobc Sep 01 '13

I also grabbed a screenshot and made my own lazy version of a commemorative image (30 000 pixels, one represents each user, and the different colours represent the diversity of our users)

36

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

We have white people from Europe and the Americas!

14

u/Gustavobc Sep 01 '13

Well we've got lots of Africans too! Huh, what? We don't? Oh– well, I'm sure we've got quite a bit of Asians! No? Just a few? Eh– well I know for sure we have a bunch of people from Oceania at least…

15

u/brain4breakfast Sep 01 '13

I can see myself from here!

9

u/CaptainMorti Sep 01 '13

Which country is that with the white flag with the purple cross?

8

u/Gustavobc Sep 01 '13

And also, why is the area around the Union Jack in Australia light blue instead of white? So many questions...

6

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

I think its supposed to be finland

2

u/hiienkiuas Sep 01 '13

I see what you did there.

1

u/Spike52656 Sep 01 '13

Why does Finland have slanted eyes? They are not Mongoloid.

13

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

Drunk.

5

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

Not mongoloid, just mongol.

u/Cygnals Sep 01 '13

Polanmod, I have no fucking clue what goes on in your head but I love it.

u/mO4GV9eywMPMw3Xr Sep 01 '13

u/obtuse_angel Sep 01 '13

I know right! I love the crazy randomness. Plus he has the best polandball english EVER.

u/DickRhino Sep 01 '13

r/polandball STRONKEST!

Thank you all for being the best community on the internet!

29

u/Gustavobc Sep 01 '13

Thank you for being possibly the best mods around, ensuring quality content!

u/Eonir Sep 01 '13

mO4GV9eywMPMw3Xr4dfGtdZD5dSLo8vBw36X25djuzw0lA2gu5dNM2's comic is simply awesome. It has the insane vibe of the first pioneers of Polandball. The fontwork is also pretty inventive.

24

u/mO4GV9eywMPMw3Xr Sep 01 '13

Just mO4 for you, and thank you.

17

u/obtuse_angel Sep 01 '13

Sorry, but I cannot accept that name. Molybdenum is mostly present in various oxidation states as a compound containing other elements, and in the rare instances where it is in its "pure form" it forms a metal lattice, so you also wouldn't get Mo4.

u/mO4GV9eywMPMw3Xr Sep 01 '13

Chemistry! Is fun chemistry.

u/_Wolfos Sep 01 '13

Looks like an MD5 hash.

u/BornSpartan Sep 01 '13

You really have to know theater to get that joke

u/whitesock Sep 01 '13

Congrats you guys. It can be hard keeping a subreddit not shitty as the number of users increases, but I'm counting on you mods <3

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

8 months ago I was pressing the random sub button and by pure luck I found Polandball. That is by far the best things I've ever done on Reddit.

Congratulations to Poland and thanks to the nazi mods for nazi moderating in a good way.

u/SK2P1 Sep 01 '13

Yay!

7

u/Xistinas Sep 01 '13

Of amazing!

u/cyaspy Sep 01 '13

Thanks you everyone! It's a pleasure to mod here, you fantastic bunch. Keep making OC and having fun, and we'll keep making sure the sub is as good as always.

Great milestone guys

u/tian-shi Sep 01 '13

Hurray!

... now back to serious business. ^{scribblescribblecontestscribblescribble}

u/bandaidsplus Sep 01 '13

Happy Christmas polandball

u/Politus Sep 01 '13

... is that some form of sextoy?

u/bandaidsplus Sep 01 '13

I wanted it to be a^{confettigunDamnit}

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

Oh come on, that's definitely Singapore dude

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

HUZZAH!

u/quistodes Sep 01 '13

How many subscribers do we need so that, if everyone donate £1, we can send a Pole into space?

20

u/stubborn_d0nkey Sep 01 '13

Does the Pole have to get back alive?
P.S. Does the Pole we send have to be alive?

9

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

Of course not.

3

u/stubborn_d0nkey Sep 01 '13

Here's a brilliant idea, how about we get Mamic to hire a Pole, and then when he flops we get Mamic to split the cost of sending him into space?

6

u/quistodes Sep 01 '13

No, but yes

u/Gustavobc Sep 01 '13

u/stubborn_d0nkey Sep 01 '13

Ahh, makes sense; silly me.

u/Xistinas Sep 01 '13

You can tie a poland plushie to some ballons and try

u/Oshawott3 Sep 01 '13

WE NEED PLUSHIES. NOW.

u/RedEd94 Sep 01 '13

This is the best I could do.

u/koleye Sep 01 '13

Huzzah!

u/Farn Sep 01 '13

The panel for 40000 users better involve space marines.

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

15 months ago after being severely depressed for being thrown out of Euro 2012 I came across this and after doing some research found this subreddit. I pretty much instantly subscribed for the comics being offensive and Euro-centric. I've learned a lot of European history from this subreddit and grown to care for countries I previously thought were shitholes (Eesti <3).

Keep it going guys.

u/creativefox Sep 01 '13

We need 5k more to beat r/europe.

u/That_PolishGuy Sep 02 '13

Gratulacje!

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

;_; We've grown so fast in the last 8 months...

u/Medibee Sep 01 '13

Here's to the next 30k!

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

cat is happiness.

u/EnergeticBanana Sep 01 '13

Congrats r/polandball on the milestone! I'd draw you a picture if I wasn't so busy. May you someday into to space.

u/carneasada_fries Sep 02 '13

30,000 stronk and still no (noticeable) decline in quality! applause

Thank you mods and contributors!

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

Hussar Wings for everyone!

u/[deleted] Sep 01 '13

Keep it up, mods.

u/Tokyocheesesteak Sep 01 '13

Soon we'll be reaching a point where merchandising is a viable idea.
