April Fool's!

Post by **Dr. Sheexy** » Wed Apr 01, 2009 5:57 am

Yeaaah! My favorite holiday!

Well I had to break the site to get this to work, maybe Deques or Kassidy can do it better than I did, but i figure it's just one day, what harm can it do? I've destroyed the site for weeks at a time before...

Anyway, if the prank and the site could work together in harmony you'd see a news post saying this:

Me in the News wrote:If you somehow missed the prank, Click here!

Are your senses fried from the terrible HTML, the clashing and flashing colors, the annoying old midi? Chances are right now, that midi is still following you along with that frame! Muahahaha!

But seriously folks, this isn’t an April Fool’s joke as much as it is an insight into where this site would be without Deques. Deques is the cool dude who makes sure the website looks beautiful and keeps it a step, nay, a whole staircase above the place where gaming websites originated.
Geocities.

To see what we did the last two years head over to the April Fool’s Section found in the Fan Section.

Also acccording to my Sword of Mana calendar, today is some character named “Gem”’s birthday… but uh, there is no character named Gem. I’ve just searched through all my Sword of Mana stuff trying to figure it out, to no avail.
Did I just get pranked by a five year old calendar?

Anyway, April Fool’s day is probably my very favorite holiday, so if you’ve got any great stories come and share them with me on the Message Board!

Anyway, happy April Fool's day!

I knew it was your work because "Willy should have died"

Very retro

Hehe, MyAnimeList has got a whole Naruto thing going. Naruto banner on every page and coded every person's profile to have Naruto as their No. 1 favorite anime character. Has a surprising amount of people pissed off. Some just can't take a joke. XD

Also many Youtube pages are upside down. Videos, comments, and all.

Also apparently you can book a flight to Mars on Expedia. XD

Hmm it seems I messed up the files so some stuff was missing, so go back and check it again if you checked earlier. (Yes, it gets even more retro. XD)
Also, thanks to Kassidy for the music and the Rabite mouse thing!

I haven't had a chance to check out anything yet today, so I'll come back with stuff later.

Tsurayu that MyAnimeList joke sounds ingenious XD

This April Fool's pretty much sucks, no one seems to be doing anytihng big!

Collegehumor pretended they were bought out by AXE deodorant, but that's not really that good of a joke because they sell out to so many places anyways... XD

Dunno, Google's one about CADIE wasn't too bad.

Ok Kotaku delivers the info on a huge prank:

That's gotta hurt!

Also IGN's Smash Bros. one is pretty lame to be honest. Last year they pulled all the stops.

EDIT: Oh how I wish this were real! http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/41/tauntaun.html?cpg=93H

うはwwwwww, funny (yet slightly stupid) April Fools. If you hadn't told me about this ahead of time I would have been really surprised and probably thought it was a really old version of the site or something.

Post by **Dr. Sheexy** » Wed Apr 01, 2009 10:48 pm

Aww it's gone now, guess Kassidy or Deques changed it back.
Anyway, if anyone missed it you can find it on the April Fool's page in the link at the top of the page.

Hey guys,

I did like the look of the retro site. It was pretty awesome. As for my April Fool's, I was proud of myself for remembering and getting a few people. My first prank was great and then I tried a couple more and they were terrible.

Bad manaman, bad. By the way, I loved the rabite cursor. Peace,

manaman

Apparently, Youtube went upside-down, Photobucket was raided by gnomes, and you can now book a flight to Mars on Expedia...

Yeah, sorry, that was me changing it back, I had to do so to work on the site last night. Forgot to put it back in place, sorry.
