Armageddon General Discussion Board

Is it a joke or not?

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

It should be the magick of april 1st.. damn...

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.

"Tradition is a scary thing, hey who loaded all the ninjas into Flint's?"

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 (http://www.zalanthas.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=18009&highlight) announcement is true.

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

Have you seen the login screen?  :lol:

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.

>You say, out of character:
    "DEMON VESTRIC!"

>flee (covering ^me eyes and screaming)

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

Ditto.  Except I'm not a hoping girl.  I'm a hoping boy.

: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.

SYSTEM: We will be going down for maintenance in 15 minutes, please finish up what you are doing and log out.  Note that this is not the normal maitenance period, and we will be back up within 20-30 minutes.

SYSTEM: The Wednesday Weekly Maintenance periods will start this coming Wednesday

Suppose that settles it.

I'm hard.

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:

I feel really sorry for anybody that dies and gets a pikachu staring them in the face.

Damn............ Now Im not going to have even one day to detox...

Which is why I'm not logging in today.

.....Ok maybe just a little.

I still don't believe it, imms.  I'm very skeptical.  An audience with Morgenes himself wouldn't convince me.


(pppsssst, that's your cue, Morgenes! *holds up fangirl sign*)

Damnit... the imms are crafty enough that they might mix real news in with fake April Fool's news.  :x
