Awards and honours
1996 CFL All-Stars
gollark: Why give anomalies numbers and not IDs? We should at least use hexadecimals.
gollark: Why not use cooler codenames like CODENAME ITALICIZED SEALSKIN?
gollark: You could run into a designatohazard like 048.
gollark: Maybe random UUIDs? Cool two-word names like UNRECOGNIZABLE PENTAMETER?
gollark: We need a cool numbering system.
