gollark: Sorry, mid-August.

gollark: They were catapulted back into (greater) prominence after the release of "beware apioforms" in late August.

gollark: This helped popularize the word, and was quite fun.

gollark: Anyway, after the initial introduction of apioforms came the heav-4 apioform game.
