gollark: I suspect that the "remove/change sickness" thread is going to go nowhere, because of all the people (and probably TJ09) thinking "nooooo, I *need* to have to put my eggs in hatcheries slightly later, and they simply *must* be able to be attacked at any time", and then eventually TJ09's going to come out with some magic "viewbombing fix" which only works about half the time.
gollark: By using *all the hatcheries*.
gollark: FREE 30G nocturne (messy lineage)! Offer a CB prize or 8 CB Golds.
gollark: Free, offer CB prize.
gollark: People will continue thinking "well, I want that chicken, I guess I'll just offer my 30G messy nocturne".
