Standings after the event

|
- Note: Only the top five positions are included.
gollark: Heav thinks that rifts spawn on the highest available land, which seems right, so we think this should redirect rift spawns to an easy-to-clean area.
gollark: <@151391317740486657> Check out the giant sky shield!
gollark: We don't need it though. At all.
gollark: AS has "shooting stars". I don't know what they do.
gollark: We can fix that.]
