I didn't know about it but I checked out the source coding for it.

That kind of tipped me off.  Sorry Wyatt.  :P

I saw it, but as this is a fairly frequent type of thing, I knew it was a joke. The Mercs forums got transformed into a Star Trek board, another made new "mods" that weren't, Bungie launched B.U.N.G.L.E., a new League, etc.

It was pretty funny, though.

You got me completely, I was like "...???"
Good one :D

Cast iron and treadmills? Oh yes. Still sculpting me to what I really want to be, and I love it. :)

Not a bad try, but I expect more creativity out of an April fools jokes these days. But then again, it did get me to post here again so... I guess that's something.

Good... Bad... I'm the one with the gun.

I rolled my eyes and went elsewhere. I'm way used to this kind of gag by now.

The Bond thing was listed as a April Fools joke, wasn't even in English - here's a forum discussing it: http://debrief.commanderbond.net/index.php?showtopic=53948

This geek gag was awesome, I'd have one: http://www.thinkgeek.com/stuff/41/tauntaun.html

Hmm Cecilia sounds like you need to send a note to Aaron...

I thought it was great! :) btw, the image was pretty cool too.

And, Mel, I'd love to have a Tauntaun sleeping bag. This one did get me. I was so excited about it.

I also like the one about Darkhorse Comics reinventing the NJO timeline by having Jacen and Jaina as Jedi Knights in the beginning of the series and Anakin being Jacen's Padawan, to better connect it to the prequels, but this would mean the first few books would have to fit into the first month or two of the war.

Course my favorite one ever is the Zelda movie trailer that was put out last year.

You see....at first i was skepticle that it was an April Fools prank...I should have gone with my first guess. That is what all of my teachers have always said to do.

I laughed after the fact...but at the time I was very sad after I let my over-active brain over-ride my instincts

Boba, that shouldn't be the case. I'll be in touch by e-mail to troubleshoot so you can use your original account.

I think I deleted that email account... I had a few odd emails that I deleted not to long ago... if it's ok with you I'd like to keep this new account... I don't remember which email I had associated here. :(
