Notes

  1. Tournaments with prize money for the women of at least $75,000.[1]
gollark: That's not the same as banning one block from being broken.
gollark: That blocks turtles entirely.
gollark: It's a thing of "running (near-)constantly with a high efficiency design you actually thought about" vs "running with no heat output for a small amount of time and resetting it".
gollark: You can easily beat these stupidly designed reactors with a sanely made one.
gollark: I don't think it is extremely harmful.
