Amazing. 4 minute answer for something very specific. Truly incredible.

Honestly, given how small lemmy is comparatively, this precision and time frame is awesome. I’m glad I’m here!

Dalek to Queen's Rook 5. Exterminate.

Sign of Lemmy gaining traction.

I had it immediately as well, just clicked to see if my answer was needed. I still have the set in a box somewhere.

Everyone is a bot except for you

I am not a bot, I am hooman just like you. I also do not consume oil or require batteries inserted in my anus, just like all of us normal hoomans.

It's not that specific. I had the same set in granite. It's a super common set.
