Title: April Fool's Contest
Post by: Ramsus on April 01, 2007, 05:14:01 pm
Hidden somewhere on this site are four hidden April Fool's gags. Some of them may be related to site functions (i.e. posting) or hidden deep in the site's many analysis articles or image galleries. Each person who finds one will be made forum admin for a month.

Good luck finding them.

Sorry, the news post doesn't count as a hidden April Fool's gag.

So are we supposed to post here about it, or PM? Because I think I've found at least one already.

So are they proper jokes or just mistakes? If they're mistakes then I've found one...

Ahhh!!!  My eyes are bleeding :shock:  I haven't blink'd in over 15 minutes.. it burns... it burns :cry:, plus I'm a little to lazy to continue for too long.  I'm happy just the way I am.  Being an admin. would be cool, but it would also take work, and I'm a hard gammer to pry off my systems 8)

I doubt they would actually make a random forum user an admin...I've been an admin on other forums and I understand the sheer power they hold over forums...to just give such power away as a contest prize would not only be foolish, it would be out of character for any of the admins here, especially Ramsus.

No...the real April Fool's joke is those of us who bought the story. Are there gags around? Sure, but finding them isn't going to cause you to be an admin. I was just searching around for giggles for awhile.

I was just thinking the exact same thing. There are no gags. That's the gag itself. Man do I feel like an idiot actually searching for them yesterday  :roll:.

Actually, I was thinking of submitting that as a gag earlier. It would be very ironic, would it not?

Hell, it's in the title. If it was what it claims to be, it'd be an 'April Fools day' contest. Whereas being an 'April Fool's' Contest, logically that means it's for fools to participate in.
