gollark: I'm annoyed that TJ09 doesn't provide/allow nice detailed analytics data on stuff.
gollark: That sounds exactly like what TJ09 would do.
gollark: They shall pile up forever. I consider myself relatively good at cave hunting, and I have piles of xenowyrms anyway.
gollark: (honestly, I doubt TJ09 bothered to cap the prices)
gollark: Okay then, a few possibilities:* the pricing does **not** adjust very fast, so people with enough shards will get them quickly, then the price will skyrocket after the first group do* the pricing does adjust fast, so the price climbs 100 shards a week and a few lucky people get them each week* either of those, but the price is capped somehow so it doesn't climb massively
