gollark: But... why would oyu want that?
gollark: ???
gollark: If you used a simpler XP←→level formula, this would be easier.
gollark: `math.floor(math.sqrt(xp / 1000))` or something would work.
gollark: I think it would be betterer if you just had a function converting total XP to level instead of some amount being necessary for each level. It's easier to keep in sync.
