gollark: I would automate it, but TJ09.
gollark: I forgot to get lots of shards this week. Instead of actual playing, I can just click a few buttons mindlessly and get my shard cap filled.
gollark: By "massbreed" I mean "breed my ~10"; not very "mass".
gollark: Also, two shards per breeding? Seems poorly thought out, since you can just earn a stupid amount by massbreeding to AP.
gollark: I will be able to send some when my AP junk hatches in 22 hours or so, or just massbreed now.
