You know, I think some April Fool's pranks are okay! Like the silly ones they do on websites or the really good natured kind. But I am LESS okay with someone changing the ENTIRE layout of our entire building and giving us treasure maps to go around it which for the record my brother-in-law did and it's a pain!!

There's some weird effects coming in from outside this planet at the moment, although they'll mostly miss the city itself. There'll be a localized temporal storm, but it shouldn't be more than a mild irritation. It looks like it's just going to yank some things around and send them on through. I think Maurice is going to call out sick that day, or if I were him I definitely would.

Hey, I kind of want a four-leaf clover. I know that's more last month than this month, but still. If you find one, pass it along.

Also, I want to do a cutesy April Fools thing, so don't get too mad!

For the remainder of the day all users will have their userpic replaced with a picture of them dressed as their favorite animal. It's pretty harmless as far as pranks go, and it will change back either at midnight or after trying to change the picture twice, prompting an "Are you sure?" message but no further ill effects.

Per the mod plotting post, you may use this post to obtain one of this month's freebies! This month's freebie can be earned by turning in a thread on this post that has 5 or more consecutive comments from you with someone new. We define someone new as someone new to the game, or simply someone your character has never tagged before.

Please feel free to use this post as a network mingle. Every toplevel can be considered a new post, and threadjacking is permitted. No NPC response will be given.

I couldn't
I wouldn't be able to do that with someone's picture
I know how to use filters now that I take selfies, but that's as far as I know what to do
i don't think i could do something like this
Would you take the job?

Oh, well
I don't really know how to do it, either...
Whoever IS in charge of it definitely has a lot of experience and is very skilled. Or they're using magic or something.

But I think if I did know how to do it...
Then I'm not sure if I would. It would feel a little invasive, you know?
So maybe it would depend on how good the compensation was...
amodelidol: (hmm...)

They are! I kind of worried that we would look like our picture or something

Yeah it would. Cause you have to go through everyone's pictures to do it. It would feel weird to go through their pictures like that.

Hmm, that's true too
I can't imagine anyone going through all those pictures for free.

What if
they managed to find the kind of person who WOULD be willing to do it for free...
If it meant the chance to creepily go through everyone's pictures?
amodelidol: (hmm? what?)

[personal profile] amodelidol 2018-05-01 03:22 am (UTC)(link)
you know that could be possible too
i hope there wouldn't be anyone who would want to go through people's pictures like that
right?
