Default The best April Fools joke

All right, so this being the best may be a matter of opinion, but I think the announcement of Elves as a playable race would have made a great April Fools joke. I can't even begin to imagine the number of people who would've either smashed their monitor in horror or peed their pants with joy before realizing it was fake. All it would have taken was a little photoshopping and the word of an Alpha.

Good but I'd prefer a new proffession known as 'Pheasent' and your skills would be like 'Throw Dirt', 'Scream', 'Sprint', 'Slap', 'Play Dead', 'Hide', 'Kick', 'Punch', and the best, 'Stare'.

He would be an incredibly good proffession, and might I point out, he can't have a support proffession.

I know, but they sounded good for the fit.

Dictionary.com:
pheasant

n 1: large long-tailed gallinaceous bird native to the Old World but introduced elsewhere

What I think we're looking for here would be:
peasĀ·ant

n.
1: a member of the class constituted by small farmers and tenants, sharecroppers, and laborers on the land where they form the main labor force in agriculture.
2: a country person; a rustic.
3: an uncouth, crude, or ill-bred person; a boor.

Better?

First the news pages sugested that Sven was leaving the mod. THen it suggested the new developer that was to take Svens place was a single man who posted 4 pictures of his dog on the news article, and said he plays flight simulator. And more goes on about his plans to make svencoop require longdistance flights.

Meanwhile, if you clicked the pictures of the dogs, you could see a gnomes in some of the pictures.

If you read Svens goodbye post you could decode that he was being held captive by gnomes that would get the other developers next. Then he posted a second message that of decoded said that the gnomes were dressing him up like Sailor Moon for an anime contest.

It was such a funny joke.
