Reception
gollark: Yes - do them in Nanuary, Nebuary, Napril, Nay, Nune, Nuly, Naugust, Neptember, Noctober, November and Necember.
gollark: Someone here has a CB gold for a coded new release, which seems a bit more sensible.
gollark: Unless you subcontract to other people to hold gusties until they hit ultra low time, you'll be bottlenecked by that.
gollark: 216000, 10, what's the difference?
gollark: Or use the Ap, which is lower-time.
