Falcatidae
Falcatidae is a family of paleozoic holocephalians.[1] Members of this Family include Falcatus, a small fish from the Bear Gulch Limestone of Montana.[2] The family first appeared around the start of the Carboniferous, and there is some evidence that they survived well into the early Cretaceous.[3]

gollark: Yes, that's why I asked if they had used proprietary code.
gollark: Eh.
gollark: Well, yes, you could describe it that way, much as I could describe this (EDIT: the new one) as... a very rough and inaccurate simulation of a financial market vaguely tied to some memes.
gollark: Also, it doesn't seem to have been much of a proof of concept given that it ran for a while with many updates and lots of support.
gollark: So what's with the legal stuff? Are you binding *yourselves* to not share bits of it, or using some proprietary code?
