April Fools Aftermath

Recommended Posts

Hello Everyone,

 

There are still yet a few changes until everything is back to normal but we hope everyone had fun! It was really a blast to put on the Pokemon masks and party yesterday, and what made it more fun was all that joined in on the Pokemon spirit!

 

I think it's safe to say we had a phenomenal success, especially compared to "others" "pranks," not that we are comparing!

 

So what was the highlight of your day?

 

 

 

Mine was the successful rick'rolling of over 2000 users/guests and helping everyone on the forums to have a chance to lose the game.

 

PS: Lets keep the topic, on topic, spam was only semi tolerated given the circumstances... Mods are back on full duty!

I have to give credit to Jagex for the water park prank. That was awesome.

I loved the pokemon theme :) reminded me of the good old days when I still played all those games and watched every ep.

There are three sides to every story: There's one side, there's the other, and there's the truth.

A few of us staffers trying to convince someone in #clans IRC that none of us could see yellow usernames and Pikachu's - and maybe it could be because he was using a Mac? :twisted:

You're accusing me of bigotry, how ironic. It's a nice attempt at argument, but your responses are facile and asinine, if not diatribe. Who's arrogant now?

Successful IMO, I'm gonna keep my avatar for a while me thinks =)

Haha, I loved all the mischief that went on soon after we began. :D

 

And I agree with Nic; it's thanks to everyone (Staff AND Users) that this event was such a success. It was amazing to see so many people getting into the spirit and actively participating in our little practical joke. <3:

 

Thanks, everyone!

It was pretty fun, mostly because it was all randomness and pretty interactive. It wasn't just a fake page on a website. I was hoping Jagex would follow with that trend too as "live" jokes you can participate in are just much more fun. Great job on putting it all together though, as it was well planed out.

 

I'm sad to see all the Pokemon go though :(

 

OT: Heart Gold and Soul Silver are gonna be awesome!

When I came here yesterday at first I was like: :blink:

 

Then I realized it was April fool's, though. I loved the pokemon theme, lolz. :P

 

As for Runescape's April fool's, I found it to be rather lame tbh. No in-game dancing chickens? :(

 

And as for April fool's irl, we tricked our teachers into rick-rolling their computers. :lol:

I was kind of hoping that the tip.it staff would keep their avatars and siggies. <3: You know, like a permanent feature where every new staff get a pokemon symbol assigned to them.

I thought it was pretty awful

 

 

Yh... buzz kill.

 

 

Sorry, not meaning to troll.

 

 

I loved it, haha it reminded me of way back in the day when I was allowed to play Pokemon. I loved that game so much, *note* this was before all those "ruby" "gold" or whatever version came out, the O.G. pokemon.

 

Also I loved how on off-topic the "redirected hits" for the rick roll was 9,153 (when I saw it) LOL. Also, when I checked my blog at work on Wednesday, saw my rank was aka knock out hitmonchan I was like "wtf?"
