PA_671 [30 points]
Due to the online smartphone application game FlashInvaders it feels like I have to revisit all still existing space invaders again. It was almost 9 years ago I visited this labyrinth space invader for the very first time (yes, time flies) but due to this game I had to revisit this one as well. I'm doing the game kind of district per district to not losing track which one I have flashed and which one not. A lot of the space invaders I have visited have been deleted, stolen or the entire building has been demolished but a lot are still there. A bit damaged or just in perfect shape.

This totally renovated area around Les Docks and shopping centre Les Terrasses du Port not far from Euromediterranée and Joliette has been invaded as well by this number 46.
Till August 2020 I found and flashed all 13 space invaders of wave 1 (MARS_01 - MARS_11 - 2004 and wave 2 (MARS_12 and MARS_13). But during wave 3 in August 2020 the number of space invaders went up to 97. In total 84 space invaders on my list again.

An 'outlined' orange space invader of the very first generation recently being re-activated around 30/03/2015. This 30rd space invader in Paris did not have such a long life. The re-activation was made by one of the very active players of the game FlashInvaders. Hopefully this time PA_030 will stay a bit longer.

A perfect space invader integrated in the building on this corner in one of Paris's oldest and liveliest neighbourhoods.

Within 10 minutes I have seen about 3 fans passing by, flashing this one and taking pictures of it.

CAZ_08 [30 points]
The lovely hill-built medieval village Saint-Paul-de-Vence has been invaded as well as part of Invader's project of 2007 "Invasion of the Côte d'Azur". For me the third space invader I found, captured and flashed this holiday. FlashInvaders says "Yes!" when flashing this one. According to my information it is still the original and after 10 years still in good shape apart from 3 missing pixels (tiles). The truck was standing in my way from begin to end during my visit to Saint-Vincent-de-Paul (40 minutes).

INVASION OF THE CÔTE D’AZUR
In the year 2007 Invader has invaded the entire coast of the French Rivièra. Instead of only one city he made a project of an entire region; Côte d’Azur. Spread out from La Ciotat to the Menton near the border of Italy.
The first wave consisted of 35 space invaders spread out over 24 cities with a total score of 990 points. In 2016 Invader put one invader up in Cavalaire-sur-Mer (CAZ_36) and in 2017 wave number 3 consisted another single one (CAZ_37).
Lots of them have been deleted throughout the years but there are already are about 9 space invaders re-activated.
PA_1105 [? points]
A new space invader featuring Cost. Cost is the tag name of a graffiti writer who, from the early 1980s to the mid-1990s, blanketed New York City and the surrounding metropolitan area with his wheatpaste stickers, spray paint tags and paint-roller pieces. Cost, whose real name is Adam Cole, is perhaps most widely known for his collaboration with another New York graffiti artist, Revs.
I saw this new space invader from the métro and got off immediately to take some shots of this one. I was lucky with the fact that this one was in full sunlight.

A revisit for the game FlashInvaders in one of the narrow one way side streets of the 11ème arrondissement of Paris. PA_861 is still there after more than 6 years, some tiles are missing but this PA_861 is still there and in good street art company with GZÚP, Diamand and Nature's Revenge. And this all on a cloudy morning in August when the mail man is delivering the mail.

Stewart 'flashing' his first space invader ever. Located in the Rue de la Huchette, PA_874 is worth 30 points and because it was his first space invader of the game he got another 100 bonus points due to 'a new city'.

Eater morning in Paris, blue skies, cold and a delightful morning walk through the 19ème arrondissement of Paris...
Location: Place de la Bataille de Stalingrad near Rotonde and Bassin de la Villette in the 19ème arrondissement of Paris.
Coordinates: 48°53'3" N 2°22'11" E
Earlier "52" About 2 years ago: 15/52 Rotonde de la Villette (2013)
Reason: Due to the addictive online game I have to revisit a lot of still 'flashable' space invaders in Paris. Because there are so many space invaders in Paris it is not possible to 'flash' (scan) them in one day. The only system for me is to flash them arrondissement by arrondissement in Paris. Apart from one I have finished the 19ème arrondissement this morning.
FlashInvaders: Spot and "flash" the street mosaics of Invader. Fill your gallery, score points and compete with other players. As we speak: 2,873 players, 80,639 flashes and 3,075,730 points.
Personal Facts and Figures: I started this game on 30/01/2015 with flashing my 1st space invader. Soon after I flashed space invaders in Amsterdam (all 9), Brussel (still to be flashed), Lille (1) and Paris is still under flash-invasion by me. On 06/03/2015 I flashed my 100th space invader and my goal was to enter the Top 100 within a few months. This happened last week on 02/04/2015 by flashing 12 space invaders in the Marais. The morning when taking this selfie the personal intermediate position is 222 space invaders, 6520 points and on the 94th rank in the game.
Weather: Blue skies but cold, 3" C
Self-portrait technics: Joby portable gorillapod on the floor, self timer on 10 seconds

This is one of the space invaders in Rotterdam which was presumed dead but has been re-activated this morning by space invader hunter and FlashInvaders player Joethecrab (ranking on number 6, 739 space invaders found and a score of 21,100 points as we speak) and yours truly (ranking on number 73, 269 space invader flashed and a score of 7,760 points). This 10 point black and white space invader was painted over for years and with a little help of us it has been re-activated again on the morning of April 16 on 09h33 in the morning. Looks like new and invaded yesterday. Though we say to ourselves!

THE INVASION OF ROTTERDAM
In the year 2001 the city of Rotterdam has been invaded by Invader. In 4 days Invader put 26 space invaders (1 hidden bonus) on the walls of Rotterdam. Sometimes hidden sometimes on very visible locations. I took some photos earlier but never put them on Flickr. Eight of the in total 25 space invader are still 'active' in 2015. Two were deleted in 2014 and 2 old new ones came back active (one re-activation and one became visible again due to the removal of a small billboard where it was hidden behind). Rotterdam was the 8th invaded city in the world.

This 50 points worth blue big space invader along the A557 became a personal milestone for FlashInvaders for me as this was my 1400th space invader flashed since I started this online game in 2015.
Till August 2020 I found and flashed all 13 space invaders of wave 1 (MARS_01 - MARS_11 - 2004 and wave 2 (MARS_12 and MARS_13). But during wave 3 in August 2020 the number of space invaders went up to 97. In total 84 space invaders on my list again.

A big space invader on fire in the 17ème arrondissement of Paris. This is only the 7th space invader put up in Paris in 2023 and it is already September.
Always when new space invaders are arriving in town you will encounter fellow space invader fans flashing the new space invader. When I was here there were 334,627 players and this was the 20,936,166th flash since the game started in 2014.
Onscreen FlashInvaders message: HOTTER THAN JULY

A rather creepy space invader on the edge of Paris. It could be part of a videogame.
