gollark: Slightly annoyed at a trade hub person. My offer has sat there for a bit. This is fine - people leave sometimes - but they recently posted another trade.
gollark: Click a button and maybe get a seawyrm? That's how it is now.
gollark: Click a button, and you get a seawyrm!
gollark: Fine. It will also contain seawyrms.
gollark: Why not simplify it to its purest form? Get rid of "breeding" and "egg descriptions" and stuff, just have a page of codes and a list of ones you got.
