April Fool Joke
« Topic Start: April 01, 2013, 09:18:45 PM »
Well.. I was kinda expecting another of those witty jokes this year from Tom. Guess he is quite busy or forgot 1st April. Last year's one was a bang! Ooh!
Just stay alive and kicking, raise your voice when its needed. Through reason you can show the mistakes of others, something violence can't do.

I don't break rules, I bend them- a lot.

What are you talking about? It is on your log-in page. That apple or google app video is this year's joke.

I was in the back a while ago and saw the date, and i was wondering what will happens this year.

Really?

I never put much attention to it, i was like "that's not gonna work" so i skipped after the first 6 seconds.


Well, you can't expect greatness every year.

Since it came up early, I thought it was a DNS fix for phones and never clicked the video. :p It took the forum post for me to watch it.

I think it came up at midnight, Germany time.

Like every year, some people think it's great, some people think we had better ones. It's a personal preference thing.

I thought it was sublime. I saw the video last night and I fell for it hook line and sinker! Felt rather silly once the alarm went up here in the forums!

Oh probably, but I thought I saw it a full day ago.

And just what time do you think it is right now...?

Tee hee (hentai style), I chastised Ironsides for raising the alarm, the better to watch people fall for it!  Also much more fun to tongue in cheek sell the prank.

Oh, right, day and half (almost two now). That's what I get for not finishing a post and leaving the browser open for a while!

This year's April Fool was great. People finally heard Tom's voice.  ;)

Yeah, though I'm not proud of that particular piece. Just didn't have time to make it really good.
