gollark: I hope I got the timing logic right. I tested it on a different day, but can hardly know how if I got it right.
gollark: Well, I'll visit it, you'll probably do so, I can rope <@!332271551481118732> into visiting it, and I think another person might.
gollark: So everyone. But only everyone who visits. So... 4 people?
gollark: Oh, I mean everyone else and you.
gollark: Yes, probably. Everyone else will enjoy it and get an exclusive achievement.
