Pretty sure I have an events log for p(Doom)1 now!

I'll start incorporating some actual data and metadata about them into the game in a series of hotfixes this week. This will form the backbone of the game's pseudorandom events.

I will now start to generate posts until I have an organic follower. Someone will eventually, foolishly, reward this behaviour.

In the interim, I must investigate opposable thumbs.
