It's nice to see you back again at the start of a new season! Just as a meta aside, I want to thank you for stress-testing the bot by requesting multiple threads between the bot checking on messages (every 5 minutes usually). It's a usage pattern that I hadn't really thought about ahead of time or tested, but I am glad to see that everything worked the way it is supposed to.

I always mean to stick around farther into the season, but for one reason or another it never seems to work out, lol.

And I'm glad my impatience came in handy! I realized I had a few to send to rikka and considered waiting for a reply each time to make sure I didn't break her, but ultimately decided it was probably fine, and thankfully it was! You've done a great job with her, so thanks for all you do.
