Have you encountered any April Fool's jokes yet? I have! As you may know, Google does an April Fool's Day joke every year, and they also do some random hoaxes. If you go to the google site today, you will see that it "changed its name to Topeka."

http://www.google.com/

However, this is not their best work by any means. They didn't even bother to change the name on anything but the logo above the search bar. I loved the TiSP one from 2007. Anyway, take a look at some of the fun things that google has done over the years.

Has anyone used the item yet?
PostPosted: Thu Apr 01, 2010 4:56 pm


I've tried, but it said there was an error, and that the item didn't exist. confused But, then again, my computer is acting funky anyway entire event is driving me a little batty. It makes me feel like me computer is even worse than it really is. lol Did you try using the item?

That's what I got. I think it's part of the prank. neutral

Thanks for helping me get 2nd place! biggrin

I have a theory about the item we got. When they showed pictures of the Gambino memorial statue, there was an urn at the bottom of it. That same urn is part of our April Fool's Day prize. Except, a baby grunny is being born from it. xp However, there is also one at the foot of the Gambino statue, so maybe the urn will revive Gambino. It makes sense because the item we first got was called Phoenix Up. If you've ever played any Final Fantasy game, then you will know that a Phoenix Down casts "Revive" on a fallen character. Phoenix Up sounds way too similar, so it has to cast "Revive" on Gambino!

That makes sense! And like I said, the whole "Gambino is Dead" storyline just sounds way too much like a soap opera for him to stay dead long. wink

I don't know. I actually think I'm getting more flying giftboxes and trunks now than ever. Right now, I'm getting one about every week or two weeks. It used to be that I went several months without getting one. I was seriously wondering if there was something wrong with my account back then. blaugh

Oh! And I love how the baby grunny ties into the Easter Egg Hunt. xd
