     If you want to do the old trick of tracking instances in a class attribute, you still have to do it from __init__:
     
     > class Niggas():
     > standing_by = []
     > def __init__(self):
     > self.__class__.standing_by += [self]
     
     I guess I should forget about __new__ now.

     @menherahair __new__ is probably what's called when you do Class(whatever).

     @Zerglingman It's explained just below, I'm merely pondering what bad code it could be used for.

     @Zerglingman Valid, but ugly (sic)
