gollark: osmarks.net simply does not use Cloudflare.
gollark: I suppose that in retrospect it should probably maybe be rewritten to buffer the last 30 seconds or so of events, and return them on request.
gollark: The API is also entirely undocumented, which is probably why.
gollark: I only realized that it probably shouldn't do that while discussing it with AlexDevs, but nobody noticed so it's probably fine.
gollark: SPUDNET's long polling thing simply ignores that.
