Reviews
  • Fantasy Gamer (Issue 5 - Apr 1984)
gollark: Your changes have basically just made things worse in various ways.
gollark: If we had LyricLy minus the beeing things with admin powers that would be fine.
gollark: I mean, LyricLy was fine *apart* from beeing things occasionally with admin powers.
gollark: Oh, right, I added myself to announcements permissions as it was a temporary jokey lyricthing™.
gollark: What did I do at this time?
