    Default April Fools' Day - another missed opportunity

    The server-wide Reaver's Fate announcement should have been returned for the day.
    I don't have a zerging problem.

    I'm zerging. That's YOUR problem.

    I think they should roll the servers back to the original release for a day so all us "new comers" can see what it was like.

    Could make everyone headless for a day.
    That'd stop people complaining about pumpkin and skull heads.. right?

    I considered going into the office to do something April Fools-ey today, however April First and I aren't very much on speaking terms.

    I'm a bit paranoid about the date now, after having been in two April 1st car accidents (resulting in totaled cars), and one tragic accident in which a desk stuck out its leg and tripped me, which left me with a stretched ligament in my leg.

    ...As crazy as it sounds, I am entirely serious about the above. It's enough to make anyone want to hide indoors and not move all day!

    Don't worry, we'll make it up to you sometime.

    PSA:
    If you break your leg in the AM of Sunday April 1st and do not have insurance, do not, I repeat do NOT decide to wait until tomorrow to go to the clinic. And especially do NOT go to a family birthday party later that day on crutches. When people ask you what happened, and you respond that you broke your leg earlier that morning, they will laugh and ask you why you aren't in a cast. They will then laugh again and *WHAM* slap your broken leg as they yell "April Fools!"
    When you turn three different shades of green, yellow, and purple.... moments before you vomit.... then and only then will they believe that your leg is actually broken.

    *Yes, today is Sunday. No, this didn't happen today, but rather some years ago.

    Ouch... if it makes you feel better, I'm paranoid about bicycles for the same reason. 1st day I'm ever riding a new bicycle I have always wrecked pretty darn good, and I'm not even trying crazy stunts.

    I have refused to get on motor powered ones.

    So...you mean NONE of you actually found the April Fool's thing Turbine put in the game? Shame.

    And no, I won't spoil it for you. Let's just say you SHOULD HAVE noticed it already, but you will LYAO when you finally get it

    I faked injury once (blood packets positioned by the outer ears) set everything from a big dam spider to those huge radioactive pry mantis's my state has in some kind of every day box. (I remember one year it was a glasses case)

    I even sent a couple back down the devils staircase saying their was an elevator down there and they must have not seen it.

    After awhile april first got boring though.

    At school, one guy faked that he broke his arm; he had it in a cast and everything. He was accident prone and had had several similar injuries before, so oneone questioned him


    Perhaps in DDO there could be kobolds running around the harbor april fools day.They could wear little hats and play tricks on the NPCs and players, or cast smokescreens around or somethingg. Just throwing teh idea out there, do what you will with it turbine.

    Is that why Master Artificer is closed and bags are becoming bound to character? (Sorry couldn't resist)
