Winners and nominees
gollark: Interestingly, some of my dragons have many named offspring, others very few.
gollark: The trick to avoiding the pain is to never hunt again!
gollark: I feel a strange sense of pride. I managed to make someone with a "normal" naming scheme (i.e. vaguely pronounceable syllables with no visible meaning) call a dragon `Peppered Sausage II` just by breeding `Avocado Sausages` to the AP ages ago.
gollark: It's not as if all names are actually what we'd call humans.
gollark: It did break lots, sure, but unless TJ09 manages to have gone against all sanity advice regarding database use, `-` at the start should not be a problem.
