gollark: Someone was doing a 56G even-gen thing. I pointed out that this would in fact require several orders of magnitude more dragons than the universe's age in years.
gollark: The thing with even-gens is that they get exponentially more difficult to make (in time if inbred, in CB dragons if not) as generations increase.
