The real sad part is we have to wait 10 years for them to select it

I know I'm on the edge of my seat!

Mods, although 2013 seems to be a bit "weak" compared to previous years, PLEASE combine this and other related threads into a single AFD prank thread, thanks in advance.

PLEASE DON'T! Nothing more useless than a combined monster thread making it hard to find anything.

I liked Slashdot's ROT-13 encrypted posts today, made my do a double take haha

I trolled my followers on deviantArt pretty hard today (I edited an image to make it appear to only partially load). It was classic!

I'm pretty sure that if the text "April Fools 2013" is in the thread you'll be able to find it using The Google

:)

Since merged posts tend to maintain their topic titles no search text should be lost.

Not that I plan on merging anything.  Too busy.

I assumed he meant merging /all/ april fools threads. From forever.

I only saw one april fools related thread this year. This one.

Didn't realize that, you're correct there weren't any others.

I think that makes 2013 unique compared to previous years, hence my presumption of a need for a "containment thread". nm, as you were...

Did you guys know that YT even put together videos announcing the NOMINEES?

I did a window playthrough of the game but I found the gameplay too transparent.

I played as a glass container for a month but in the end I felt a bit jarred.

I played as a wall for the ultimate challenge, but I became bored and got plastered.
