Me too. But I'm just glad that, for the first time *ever*, I actually remembered to come to the Watch on April 1st. So for once, I got in on the joke, and not just all the comments afterward....

Alot of things have changed here but, luckily, not the insane & sarcastic sense of humor I have grown to love!!!
April Fools!!!!
Next you'll try to tell me there is some of my essence available for purchase in the store.... you all are such kidders!!!!

Umm... Earthy? I hate to say this but... maybe you should go look in the stores.
Now if I could just find a way to wear live bees as jewelry all the time.....

You trying to April Fool us? It is the 1st in New Zealand, after all.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

I am speechless...... where's that Spotlight Award thingie?iQuestor wrote:Vain, I dont know how to tell you this, but your new site sucks. I mean, not that the artwork or layout of KW now doesnt suck, but we have humored you guys because some of the posts are fun and some of the avatars are kinda hot.
I have seen this site degrade over the past year. I know the Watchies were rigged, I mean, c'mon -- Avatar probably didnt even write that piece for Pantheon himself, fercryinoutloud -- And poems, hell the other ones didn't even rhyme. How much did you people have to pay him? How do you live with yourselves, looking at those awards on your walls, living the high life with your champagne and your papparatzis and your cute little watchie bitmaps.
And that wasn't enough for you, Vain , was it. You needed more. -- you brought back White Gold Dollars, as if SRD's genius could be enhanced by mere currency. watchers are now selling their opinions to the highest bidder; hell, Fistys pimping out his services at 10 WGD's a pop. Now your selling us overpriced used bitmaps at 100% profit. And the watcher sheep are just lining up at your evil trough for it, arent they, Vain?
All in fun you say? WGD Ho, I say.
And the 'Tank -- I used to believe we were making a difference in there. I thought the debate was honest, the emotions were true. It was exciting, it was fun, to see Esmer and Cail and Null go at it. EL coming in with his tortured worldview, and Malik, with his Philospohy degree and his brute force attacks. And Cail, Cail -- whom I looked up to ... and Prebe, with his cool intellect. And Lord Mhoram, HLT -- Ah, my heart!
Lies. All Lies.
See, I had a hunch, Pal, and I did some checking. Oh yes. And you know what I have found, didn't you? Oh yes, I am going there.
They all have your IP address, buddy. All of them. every one. Coincidence? Oh, I think not.
So, Whats that about, Vain? All these posters got the same IP Addresses? You maybe got something you want to tell us, now? You got some kinda sick frat party going on over there in your little personal DisneyWorld from Hell?
Sick Little party in your head, is more like it.
Thats right, I said it: Vain is living a lie, people.
There is no Cail, No Malik. Esmer doesn't exist, and Plissken is a figment as well. and Null -- dear sweet Null -- you made him up too. Cail. HLT. Mhoram. EL. Camera Man Jenn.
You made us love them Vain. But they're all lies.
You are a sick, sad, strange little man, Vain. And now the truth is out.
You should have never made me a Mod, Vain. You should have known I'd find the truth. Should have known I wouldn't play along.
I should have taken the blue pill. I should have gone back to my pod and lived the lie. But I can't go back. Youve ruined it for me with your fee-based dissections and your one-on-one with SRD. Oh, your good Vain. Real good.
People, Dont buy what Vain is selling. move away from the light, I don't care how beautiful it is, it will suck dry your soul and replace it with white gold dollars and corruption and google ads.
I am out of here, and I am taking my ball with me.

I second that ahem. DW wasn't the first to figure it out, merely the first to ruin it for those of us who were keeping silent and reading the flood of posts from dismayed Watchers.Avatar wrote:Ahem...Lorelei wrote:I send kudos to DW for being the first one to figure out what was going on.
Vain's prank was really good. It sounded just plausible enough and it fed into people's hopes and fears for the Watch.
Yay for snagging some of you - and kudos to those that smelled a rat Next time...you won't be so lucky.......matrixman wrote:I second that ahem.
