gollark: Obviously they just loaded a backup, but I got to feel smugly superior for a minute or so.
gollark: The spatial IO thing did work, except the computer system managing it broke somehow so I had to manually teleport in ahead of the explosion (it propagated very slowly, Draconic Evolution is weird and also a bad mod which the server had for some reason but that's not the point), press the button, and teleport back.

gollark: ComputerCraft is the computers.
