Needless to say the stick figure thing made me not play for the weekend, it was funny at first but not being able to get away from it was irritating when you wanted to be super srs again.

Stick men were game-wide. My alliance did a CoF dungeon run as sticks, and we were laughing way too hard the entire time.

Definitely will be in LA tomorrow night to see what happens at midnight *g*

I've got a screenshot of beating the Fissure as a party of sticks. Truly beautiful.

My personal hope comes from a thread that somebody suggested in Sardelac, which is where the Xunlai Chest starts chasing people around town making Pacman noises, and if he hits you you turn into a ghost for ~30 seconds while in town.

Cool search button.

As for what they do, I'm not quite sure how they could top gender change and stick figures. Those were pretty awesome.

anet should make every monster mob run podspike and/or rawrspike. why? because i want to see just how many players can actually beat the AI with a spike build.

They'll just PoD minions or uselessly fail to remove SY....

HM mobs deal plenty of damage and some teams spike perfectly well, most of the eotn bars are relatively strong too. It's various other stupidities holding them back.

Awesome skill updates of course

Word of Healing: This spell is now easily interruptable and you have -40 armor while casting it.

Mending: Moved to Strength Attribute. Increased health regeneration to 4...9.

Palm Strike: Reduced recharge to one second. Reduced casting time to 1/4 second.

Lingering Curse: Increased healing reduction to 50%. Reduced recharge to 5 seconds.

I think you get my point.

This for sure. Only ppl who are already infected though, otherwise I would be worried about doomsday like on Jan. 1st, 2000.

Far as GW goes, I'm betting something stupid like another tonic or some kind of "neat" overused drop. If its anything NEW that interests me for more than 5 minutes before I log back out of gw for a few weeks or months, then hats off to anet.

Have the login screen/character selection screen change to a new "GW2 themed" login with lots of crazy, nonsensical stuff in the background with the GW2 logo in full force.

Guild Wars 2 is being made into a first person shooter. Anet has been bought out by Electronic Arts.

Whiptail Devourer drops Crystalline sword which your party reserved for [player name] Ofc gold and req7
NagaShaman drops Echovald shield which your party reserved for [player name] Also gold r7.
[monster name] drops [insert random rarity gold low req]

All monsters drop random rares with a frequency like that of the event drops like clovers, candy etc.

When you try picking them up they explode and a flag with the text April's Fool pops up.

I've actually thought of this idea myself several times and agree that just for one day this could be huge fun :-) Especially as I think my primary character would be around level 1400 <G>

What would be awesome would be a huge patch. One that says "HAPPY APRIL FOOLS!" and changes nothing at all. Making people all look all across the game for what they changed. Only to have nothing at all have been changed.

A good 20Mb Lorum Ipsum would do the trick.

I think it would be cool to run around town as a full-size version of our minis(within reason, kuunavang) with a mini of ourselves following

You know what would be awesome? Turning everyone into Aion characters with wings and stuff, that way they could do some in-game advertising ;D
