gollark: On such short lists I'd imagine it's just insertion sort.
gollark: ```python def check_ticket(self, ticket): # compare ticket and winner order-insensitively return sorted(self.winner) == sorted(ticket)```
gollark: ```python def generate_winner(self): self.winner = self.generate_ticket() return self.winner```
gollark: `self.chosen_ticket = whatever`
gollark: You should probably just make them attributes.
