Open-Source Goblin echo: A Postmortem

The goblins maintain a running list of things echo is not. The list has 6,012 entries and grows weekly.

There is a goblin practice — neither encouraged nor forbidden — of deliberately staring past echo rather than at it, on the theory that echo reveals its true nature only when it does not feel observed.

Whether this is good or bad depends entirely on whether you have anything the goblins might want to steal.
