EfU Week April Fools

Discuss the April Fools prank if you want here. I do hope at least one person sent off their waiver.

But I really wanted to LARP with you H.. : (

:-D

I think it is very immature that DMs would lower themselves to this level.

I edited my post in the other thread because I pointed out it was April Fools, then figured out most people were in on it and simply playing along.

Having been made a fool last year, I refrained from entering the fray this time. I did enjoy reading the commentary and trying to guess who got it and who did not.

:D

I've already LARPed with Howland. He just doesn't know it.

:lol:

I have to say, I didn't catch on until the doc name on the raw waver from OMGbear was 'Lol waver' (No one bothered to tell me that it was April fools day, and an astounding amount of CO-workers called in sick today, so I had little chance to find out). And then I philed at Wordperfect to PDF conversion. :(

Anyway, An amazingly skilled and elaborate ploy.

Also: OMGbear: When you start getting waver's, tell us who they are, so we can publicly humiliate and mock them.

Activity.Series I think it is very immature that DMs would lower themselves to this level.
Lawl this is actually a good troll.

ugh i still want to rp with koinus sten irl

OMG I BOUGHT PLANE TICKETS ALREADY U NOOBS WTH?!?!1/1

.....

Nah, not really, although it didn't really register that it was an April Fools gag when I first read it. Nice one.

What was the one last year? Anyone remember?

That.

Hey, um. Guys.

Let's do it anyway?

I will, if you post a photo of yourself with EFU LARP written across your chest.

Not with you, Kotenku. <_<

Nice gag anyway, guys.

Deputy Cool,

:roll:

Oh you all really made my day a very happy one, I was stuck at work, but from time to time came here to check the posting and laugh some more each time!

Therefore, no LIGHTNING BOLT at NY this year ...

Wait you mean to tell me that i shaved all my hair off, turned it into a fake beard i can wear, sharpened my battleaxe and bought a set of breastplate that i then went out into the garden with and rolled around in to get it dirty for nothing?

Not only that but i will never get my chance at a pimp off between myself, Sten, and Sunnellier, damn it.

I told you we shoulda voted night club!

The DMs edited my spoiler. I figured by the third page it was OK to let the poor bastards off the hook. I really wasn't trying to ruin the fun, I just thought that most had figured it out.

BTW, the Northern New Jersey Grotto was an EXCELLENT touch, Howland. I laughed my ass off when I clicked on that link.

I must admit, though, that until the NNJG link It hadn't occured to me that it was April 1st.

LARP on, my fellow EfUers!

efu larp = aprel fu - ovyus reelee

A shame. I was looking forwad to mugging one o them fellas at the airport for a monk's habit.

I got as close as to clicking "reply" in the other thread before I realized it was April Fools...

So I practised duel wielding crossbows for nothing?

An ok fools, imo.

IT GETS LOUDER EVERY YEAR.

Most amusing. The more people got overexcited the funnier the thread got.

This fits under the "if it's too good to be true, it likely is" along with the DM-spice cautionary thought of "that's a lot of doom knight commanders up there, think we should charge with our group of two muted mages, 2 int-based rogues, a cha-based ranger and the fighter who is strength drained?"

It was a joke :cry:

Howland, I'm sending you the bill for 12,000 brass sequins:

I got lucky. After I read the post the first time I got up to check with the family whether it was even remotely possible to get there, then as I was about to stand up, I glanced down at the cursor and saw "April the 1st 2008" which got me doubting...

After reading it three times more I was certain, mostly by the whole, 'bus ride from the airport and free food & drink'

For a minute or 30 I couldn't decide whether to laugh my lungs or cry my eyes out, having read the prank... Yeah, the coin didn't drop until Coldburn pointed out the date to me. :shock:

I've been punk'd. :(

Well, I bought plane tickets but it just so happens a uni friend of mine needed to see his friend in NY and he was willing to do a few things for them, so all in all I came out on top!

Thanks EfU!

Ah, I was so ticked that I wouldn't be able to go. You guys suck. In a hilariously brilliant way.

but my tickets too nuu jork...can i sue howland for this?

the good news is for those that bought tickets, is that hopefully you did so in a way that allows for refunding the money to you.

You do realize you had like 4 fricken weeks?!

No seriously guys, do you always buy tickets AHEAD of time?!

Newbs, 8) Be 15 yrs old and you see things a lot better

Hard work will pay off later, procrastination pays off now.

You're 14 years old, TSF.

Tell your Uni friend to play with the older kids. Sicko.

I was all jacked up on Mountain Dew and thought I was going to be Bilby. I'm such a fool.

Just so you know, TNVW, and for your future, you should ALWAYS buy plane tickets a few weeks (months are better!) ahead of time. The cost jacks WAY up the longer you wait, which can change a ticket that costs 200 bucks ahead of time into 500 bucks a week in advance to 1000 bucks the very same day.

It is best to buy plane tickets four months in advance of your trip. There are a number of very solid and logical reasons for this, if you buy too early-you're paying a mid-tier (default price) range or sometimes even a high-tier rate if its a popular flight, if you buy too late you pay the "I've got you by the balls, sucka'" rate, and if you buy four months in, you can get the "crap, we may not fill this plane up, let's cut the price to a lower tier" rate.

I'm 15 in December! :(

Actually there are dif fares in a plane, that does not inccour in class of the flight.

Example, A flight from Sao paulo to NY

Economic class fares

A , B , C ,D

BUssines class E,F,G

Prices a=850 U$ b=900 u$ c=1000 U$ D= 1100U$ E=1400 U$ F = 1550 U$ G= 1650 U$

and so on...

Usually there are 9 tickets of each class in a regular flight (unless it is an airbus 380!)

So if you buy earlier, you might get the class that pays the lowest prices, of course sometimes fares change, for less or more, so if the Flight have very few occupancy, all the fares go lower.

Well So buy as soon as you can and you shall save some money 8)

Experience of 2 yrs working as travel agent !

i didn't buy tickets btw. im not that stupid.

Damn i was going to buy them off you pheonix, ah well :lol:

Joke or not, we're all still going, right? >_>

I think we should all just turn up at Howlands house, i am sure he would be cool with the thousands of us sleeping on his lawn.
