1. Post anything from 4/1 in here.
2. Do not post any links anywhere else.
3. Do not link to Kotaku/Joystiq/Destructoid/etc - they're not funny.
4. Do not think that ANYTHING is news.
5. If you think anything is news, wait til 4/2.
6. Bans will be made.

No questions? Good.

Time to get in line for a ban!  awesome, for real

xkcd webcomic -- try standard unix commands, in-jokes from earlier comic strips, etc. If you want to be a killjoy, look at the source of the page and load up the referenced javascript source.

Is "Woot Your Own Adventure!" a joke?

Why am I homeless?  Why do all you motherfuckers need homes is the real question.

Yeah, little bit disappointing.

In other news, Wurm online changed all player models to different animals depending on kingdom.

I'm guessing most saw this somewhere else, but still good for a laugh at when April Fool's jokes go wrong. Way to go MSI!.

Bioware released info on their new class for SWtOR, the Sarlacc Enforcer.

Also, I got an email about a BloodBowl Legendary edition with all the missing races.  Not sure if it's April Fools, or legit, though.

The videos on that site are pretty clever, especially the Sarlacc Death Star.

I hope the animations in the game look as good as that second video's.

Oh, man, that one got me to laugh very hard.

I found out that April Fool's Day is also celebrated by even government henchmen:

Nothing really seems that good aside from Blizzard and Bioware.

I liked how in their Sarlacc videos they used the Wilhelm Scream

Found this when I was wondering what upcoming changes or events were on the way to Guild Wars:

Guild Wars skill update

Most of it will probably only be amusing to its players, but there are a couple of good ones.

Hahahaha!  I'm really good at this!
