Is it a joke or not?

Arm is evil.  And I love it.  It's like the softest, cuddliest, happy smelling teddy bear in the world, except it is stuffed with meth needles that inject you everytime

Another announcement. I'm getting scared. Which one is true? Neither one is in the Recent news..

Makes you wonder if they decided on the tactic of hitting us with so much stuff at once that we won't know what is the joke and what isn't. And why is this change going in tomorrow specifically when there isn't going to be a downtime?

*shakes his head*

I'm of the opinion that the no downtime thing is real, and the joke is that you all think it's a joke and are going batshit over it.

I'll sum up all the wisdom of 12 years of armageddoning in one short phrase.

At least no one is loading up mekillots and gajs for fun.

Have an entire day of the game not saving and kill all the PCs.  Then restart with everyone back where they were prior to today... good fun.

Wait... I probably shouldn't give them ideas.

Screw that announcement, what I'm hoping is that THIS announcement is true.

I've already special apped a mul rap artist, just in case.

N00bs.  You can't take any news you see today on the internet seriously, except the stuff on Slashdot and the new April items at Thinkgeek.

I had the greatest April Fools joke planned out for my boss.  Then joke was on me, April 1st is a saturday!  :x

A brightly-plumaged vestric has arrived from nearby.

>A small rodent with bird-like features scurries here, glancing nervously
from side to side in these unfamiliar city environs.  Its feathers have been
brightly dyed in crimson and purple, and a strand of bells is wound around
its feathered neck.  It has small feathered arms for gliding down from
treetops, and curiously pink hands with three fingers.  
A brightly-plumaged vestric is in excellent condition.

This poll doesn't have enough options!  Anyway, my predictions are:

Morgenes watchery stuff:  real
Downtime elimination:  maybe (hey, a girl can hope)
New app policy: joke
Mantis replaced with Pikachu: joke
Clan mergers: joke
Daylight saving time: real (but should have been a joke)
New starting locations: joke

:shock: That rocked!

I think Arm itself is an April Fool's joke, just one that was so good after years and years, people are -still- falling for it.

Anyone else?

Well, Helllllooo WarriorPoet.
Heh.
Back up, as far as I can tell.

It's now 11:53.  I bet the game goes down in 7 minutes, with a system message saying "hahaha fooled you bitches".

I about crapped my pants when I read that Vanth was implementing a Silt World.  I didn't realize it was April 1 until I read this thread.  You got me!  I'm so gullable.  :oops:
