Notes
    gollark: The solution is to use global variables and invoke the wrath of Zeus, or I guess to just malloc some memory to store a copy of `reqCounts` in.
    gollark: If so, it'll be on the stack, not the heap, so it'll be overwritten when another function does things.
    gollark: Is it a local variable?
    gollark: The original one.
    gollark: Wait, is `reqCounts` stack-allocated?
