Wait, if it's just a joke, how come my $120 (I paid for the year) hasn't been returned to my Paypal account?

I figured that was my kickback for the glowing review of "Flower of Doom".

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.

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.......

Isn't there always some kind of a post 04/01 backlash? Didn't this happen before? I can't remember....

I seriously WOULD donate on a paypal button, BTW.

If the watch is ever in need of funds.

The backlash was as funny as the prank!

Why... isn't there a donate button? Is there, and I just odn't know about it? Or would it pay for costs that don't exist?

There isn't a donate button :) Costs do exist but they're able to be absorbed without fuss

I'm not sure what the costs for the message board server are, but the costs for kevinswatch.com are minimal. Just a small yearly fee for the domain name.

You can do a quick search a few pages page in the announcements forum for the Aprility Fools topic. Basically, it involved pretending that a certain member was made an admin in order to take charge and control spoilers.-jay
