gollark: Though if we somehow end up with "adjust the game" happening I have some ideas for stuff to add...
gollark: Or just edit it and hope nobody checks the revision history.
gollark: Besides, the current focus is on random thingss like the serialization, for some inexplicable reason.
gollark: We couldn't even finalize ram mechanics.
gollark: Any strategy guide is going to be completely wrong, depending on how EWO *actually* turns out.
