Name

The name Ponikve is a plural form derived from the word ponikva 'influent stream' or 'sinkhole' (into which such a stream disappears). In its plural form it refers to a gently rolling landscape consisting of the basins of an influent stream. Like other villages named Ponikve and similar names (e.g., Ponikva), it refers to a local landscape element.[3]

gollark: I think the best approach is probably to use curse's registry, but with something like mcdex and MultiMC instead of the horrible Twitch launcher.
gollark: Annoying to update as in annoying to keep mods up to date with, users could just `git pull`.

gollark: Do you have some way to automatically download it for everyone? I'd rather not go through it by hand.
