Ideas for APRIL FOOLS

Interesting thread idea, here. I liked Todoroki way back when, as well as the Moderator switch the year before that. Now I'm wondering what this year will have in store.

The Digimon idea is Serebii's thing, so why not Biebermon? Make PC a Justin Bieber fansite for a day, where all references of Pokémon get switched out to that. XD

Or for something more unique, how about saying that the server screwed up, and instead of all the references to Black and White coming out in a few weeks, we've been sent back to the 90's awaiting the release of Red and Blue. With the site's themes and forums skipping back accordingly, even though PC of course wasn't around for that release. XD
 
How about we give PC a slogan?

Should just be able to tack it on the end of the name field in the postbit, rather than changing names. That's just a display thing and shouldn't make a difference.

Hmm... well I guess there should be some sort of PHP witchcraft possible for that >__> but I'm not quite sure how that would work out.

I'm not sure about the code itself, but considering it should be similar to changing the way a name is displayed on a style to style basis, it's no different to changing the font for an item in the postbit.
 
Force everyone to change theme and change the name, for we are now DigiCommunity and are all fans of Digimon!!!! Maybe a slogan: "Pokémon is so 1995". If possible, every Poké- prefix is replaced with Digi- (possibly requires some amazing PHP wizardry :) )


Oh wow, I love that idea XD
 
Hm... prahaps create a new forum style/theme? To that Mudkip meme, along with that Kip Rolled video hidden in an HTML code so that you'll only hear the sound. And everyone's profile having the Kip Rolled video as their profile picture (like what you can do normally with YouTube videos on profiles). Along with everyone's username being changed to "Mudkip" along with their avatars changed to a Mudkip and being unable to change it until April Fools Day is over, same with the videos as well. So yeah... it'll be a good HTML code that will direct everyone to the user on PC which really does have the username "Mudkip", just like what it was like with Todoroki. Along with that... Mudkip always following pointer/cursor when you hover over the webpage. Just imagine how wonderful that would be? :o

Has anyone got any better ideas than this? If so, please do post them! Because I surely would like to read them. ;)
 
My best idea is a forum blackout (that is, black theme/black text/ black buttons/etc…) or a Whiteout.

We have done this one (Black out) a number of years ago..

Other than that we could give everyone Admin banners (but not actually make them an admin :P ) just for lolz. Or change the Supporter tiers from 5 to say 9,871. We could also put out fake announcements for a Ruby/Sapphire remake, or Generation VI that uses mind control and virtual reality with the new Nintendo 4DS. Or maybe Ash finally dies in the next anime episode?

Something really whacky that peeps will remember. :D

I like the digi idea mon

BUT if it's been done by serebii or others, we'll have to pass or come up with another idea

How about the Bieber idea and add " Bieber" to the end of every username? XD

Not necessarily. If the idea already exists on other sites, we can show how PC can do it better ^^ I don't think anyone would object, since it's all in the name of fun. Creativity!! :D

Not much change for me then? ;) I like the idea of being KipRoll'd for a day (didn't DeviantArt do something similar to this a few years ago? Even if they did, we can do it better :) )
 
I wonder if there's a javascript line or code that would invert everything on the site, or render everything in negative colours and have that randomly activate upon page refreshes during the day.

Hahaha! This! I love this idea! It wouldn't be too hard would it? Could we also have a really poorly done Bieber theme? XD
 
I like the Bieber one! xP

Play Rick Astley - Never Gonna Give You Up on loop when browsing PC.
 
Against the Bieber idea. Because literally, Bieber WAS so 2010. People are getting sick of him/getting over him/etc.

I don't see the Bieber thing happening anyways~
 
Sydian Bieber.

Also Nica, he's got a movie coming out. No one's over him. You're so 2000 and late.
 
But that's only for the teenage girls. :(
