TML has said he wants to convert it into a TGA staff forum, but I'm not sure if anyone will listen to him.

But no, it really wasn't a very good April Fools joke. It was fun to make, though.

Yup, I sure am a gaming psychic.

There wasn't a desired result of a ton of people being fooled or playing along with it, and for that I apologise. X_X

...But yeah, it was loads of fun to make. ^_^

I thought it was funny, myself.

I've been at VGF since 2000 and I've never seen an april fools before. This is because I was on and off the boards from time to time. So this is my first experience with a VGF april fools. I'm a newbie.

More like, getting Shane to listen to me. But in that even, all these topics are getting wiped. Heh heh... you're next, bait...

It could be converted into HotD's Marshmallow/Grinnie Forum!!!

I didn't really like this year's April Fools prank. I think it was a good idea, but it was poorly executed. (It is just my opinion, anyway)

^Yup. Surely you could have posted a fake news thing saying that the boards had been hacked, or soemthing.

Although, that would be too similar to last year's prank.

I knew it was a joke pretty much right away. But it was still pretty...weird.
