Title: No official 1st April prank?
Post by: Arantor on April 01, 2010, 07:32:17 AM
:(

No official prank here. Even at the apparently unfun environment that is SimpleDesk, we managed to produce something...

Maybe they prank you by making you wait for a prank so you can post it and laugh at you, just a thought :P

I got pwned by being half way through the release process for SimpleDesk before more bugs were found. Yes, we were aiming an actual release today but with the outstanding bugs, I doubt it'll happen now :(

This year's best April Fools has to be xkcd, I think.

Given the problems that always happened in the past with April 1 jokes here, I'm not surprised nothing was done.

DS: Pwned? Looks genuine enough to me.

MC: I arrived after 1st April last year, but everything I'd seen indicates a willingness to do something generally though this year I guess with all the crap it also seemed like an idea *not* to.

It was repackaged, Arantor. It was a prank at first....

Judging by that thread it wasn't intentional.

lol, hey, it was actually a genuine april fools joke - but not played out by any of the team nor me. ;D As I said, the server played a trick on me and that in itself was quite funny I thought.

XKCD's was good, but Google Japan's (http://googlejapan.blogspot.com/2010/04/google.html) topped it, IMO. ;)

Never thought of that. The ultimate prank is not having a prank.
