gollark: I'll probably just leave the trade up for a few days, none of the offers seem hugely time-sensitive.
gollark: People do NDs without catchers or anything? Wow.
gollark: Huh, perhaps they're more common since ND discussion is allowed on the forums now.
gollark: The offers have basically entirely been 2G prizes + extra things and honestly I'd like something different to that.
gollark: It's kind of annoying that I haven't really gotten any new interesting offers on my ND trades in about six hours.
