gollark: I mean, the raffle and market distribution aren't mutually exclusive.
gollark: Well I disagree.
gollark: How do you plan to test this anyway? Collect a bunch of eggs and give each different amounts of views and see which hatch at 4d and which don't?

gollark: Dealing with people bugging you about prizes: constantly deny the existence of your prize, act as if it doesn't exist, and sort it out of the way on your scroll.
