So have you fooled many people today? Or did you get fooled your self? And how?

So far I'w fooled 9 people and haven't been fooled by any.
I just put " I'm gonna be a dad :bouncy: " in my msn nick ^^

1-1

Got fooled by Caris' make-believe terrorist attack in London, but evened the odds when I think ShadowV7 fell for my sunny interval bombs.

The joke's on you now that you've put ideas into your girlfriend's head.

I don't really like April Fooling as it's usually only funny to the trickster, so I haven't fooled anyone. I did buy a packet of Salt 'n' Shake which didn't have a salt sachet in — so just Shake, then — so I suppose you could count that as someone fooling me. Damn you, slack Walkers conveyor belt person!

Not at all, they're too predictable. Anyone who falls for a trick I pull today, I would be so ashamed of as to not speak to them for a long time.

Aren't April Fools supposed to end after 12pm, or "you're the fool", anyway?

Trekmovie got me with a supposed leaked sketch of the new Enterprise. For about 8 seconds.
Other than that, I AM INVINCIBLE.

I once convinced a friend he'd won a grand.


I'm going to hell for it, but it was funny as fuck.

Never heard about that part before.

I sorta even forgot it was April Fools day today. Nothing happened, didn't get fooled. I don't think anyone in my family (me included) even cares about the day.

Hmm kinda something about it on the BBC article:

In some countries (eg, Ireland and Cyprus) the tradition goes that after 12 noon you can no longer play tricks. In the afternoon, whoever does play a trick becomes the fool. This scenario may have been designed by adults to give themselves a bit of a rest.
There is a rhyme that children recite if anyone attempts an April Fool trick after 1 April:
April Fool is dead and gone,
You're a fool to carry it on. Doesn't say why, but I knew I didn't imagine it :D

Blizzard are really good at it as well, in previous years they've put up details of a home delivery service which you could order from in game.

And this year they've announced Warcraft: Heroes of Azeroth which is set 6 years before the events of World of Warcraft (i.e. Warcraft 3 :p)

Do I get points for ignoring April Fools Day, and still not falling for any pranks?

Its just been a normal day for me.

In Scotland (at least my part of it) the 12pm rule applies, and I sleep in til 2:30 after 48 hours on 10minutes of sleep. (but <3 Alton Towers)

Yeah you shouldn't try and pull jokes on Warcraft fans; the joke is already on them.

a) No jokes pulled on me, but I slept until 11am anyway! Hooray! tried pulling one off my shouting into the kitchen.. "Aww Ive been sick everywhere in the night" to be told, "piss off, we're not falling for that!"

b) Google's was quality as always.

c) Fool after 12noon, you;re the fool. FACT!

d) Terrorist attacks/cancer? April Fools were meant as a bit of light hearted fun...
