Reception
gollark: Those really just seem cheaty and overdone.
gollark: How do you detect CK-class events?
gollark: THEY. ARE. APIOFORMS.
gollark: * apioforms, and they might probably hopefully be detected.
gollark: Because they work very differently to humans, they are able to detect apioforms which would cloak themselves from human perception.
