Ceka Cianci Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 One that i have heard is that April first used to be the old new years..Then it was switched to jan1.. With the slow communication back then some didn't find out till much later..some ignored the new date of jan1..So others would treat them as fools playing pranks on them with the old date..

Relm Foxdale Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I seriously can't believe people thought it was a hack. Hello, it was April 1. At worst, it was someone toying around with the load screen, if not a joke. I know that people are sensitive because of what happened with Emerald, but it was clearly someone playing around.

Didi: And what will you give me for lunch? Gogo: A big serving of fish (poisson), what do you think? Didi: I think you will give me poison, you rascal! Gogo: That would be a capital joke, ha ha! Didi: It would be a capital crime! Gogo laughs uncontrollably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
