Notes

gollark: I should really try and... test it more, or something?
gollark: Maybe the ND section should have my egg time finder extension thing? It's pinned in the <#331291747059630082> channel.
gollark: Apparently I'm hatchling-locked for another 21 hours. Annoying!
gollark: It is very convenient though. It's hatched in 10 minutes of hatcherying and autorefreshing.
gollark: I really wonder who thought it was a good idea to dump their low-time (2d10h) egg with plenty of views into the AP.
