Right now it tries the following urls (falling to the next option on failure):

checks for a matching discord user, and uses their avatar
use an adorable.io avatar (if adorable fails, then the message is not sent)

It should:

check in db (redis?) for matching username, and use submitted url
check matching discord user
use github avatar (send a HEAD to https://github.com/username.png and check for 404. if 200, then use this url, give this a 150ms timeout)
use adorable.io avatar
