Notable players from Oranje Zwart
gollark: ... giannes?
gollark: Apparently there are still four "giannis"es.
gollark: I mostly only use my phone for occasionally taking bad photographs of things and photographing documents, so in my endless search for a new phone (hopefully finishing that tomorrow...) I mostly just ignore cameras.
