Notable people

gollark: Yes, because a few uber-rich players took a small chunk from their vast fortunes.
gollark: Not really, that's hyperbolic, sorry.
gollark: Also the Krist v2 server is broken.
gollark: Krist as it stands does have some problems though, and in this I agree with Terra - there are a few people who had good GPUs and went in early when the block value was *fifty times* what it is now who own most of the economy.
