Our staff has furthermore noticed a significant increase in tags and trends for #aprilfools and #pranks. Keep on your toes and be certain to tag your best tricks for Retrospec™! 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. Any emails sent to the HR department will be returned with a failure to send notification, and will furthermore automatically be posted to the Retrospec network. Oops? Characters who have been in game for one month will find they can now change their profile pictures. Glitches will be in effect until the 15th and may include: -Usernames changing to a cat, dog, or bird pun. -The Retrospec application being changed into a neon color + animal theme of some variety. -Notifications going off at random and being unable to be turned off. -Various "special effects" crossing the screens when people comment. -Users having to beat a level of pac-man to access the application, and then being made to beat a new level every hour to keep using the application. -Thomas the Tank Engine memes being sent to users every hour for some reason. -Profile pictures being replaced by pictures of rabbits and easter eggs. -New creepy pasta stories appearing upon log-in, to be forwarded to someone before the app can continue to be used -Parental lock and auto-correct on cursing (i.e. fuck -> duck) -A parade of pixel Chocobos or dancing fruit scrolling across the screen after each comment posted

hey im requesting more free to play phone games
i actually dont mind the required pacman time but like
can we get some variety
maybe throw in some frogger if were doing oldschool shit that belongs in the arcades
shit frogger would be too cool for this app what am i thinking
hard drivin' is totally more their speed
that was not a hard write of my accent btw thats actually an arcade game

*all of that but not red for the love of god

[hjack69]

+1 on frogger
i flippin love frogger
also spy hunter i am SO good at spy hunter

[parodeity]

right
frogger > pacman how is this even a competition
how did they pass over the frogman
i want to start a rebellion

[hjack69]

frogger is like
WAY deeper on a narrative level
pacman is just kinda runnin around eating fruit and getting hassled and thats your average evening trying to walk past the really aggressive vegan food cart by my place
but frogger
life or death struggle just to go home
i mean snap the whole WORLD is out to get him
esp those butthole crocodiles

[parodeity]

frogger def has the more relatable protagonist and storyline like
you can shove depth into pacman if you reach?
like oooh spoopy ghosts w/e
but frogger has actual meaning and like a GOAL
which makes sense and is like
#relate
id send a letter to hr to complain about the froggster being overlooked but
looks like thatd just get it posted to the network lmao

[notyourutopian]

Oh my god stop.
I'm even worse at frogger.

[parodeity]

el is there a game you arent bad at

[notyourutopian]

[There's a bit of a delay.]

The mario one on gamecube with the water jet thing.
I was awesome at that.

[parodeity]

super mario sunshine?
that one was actually p cool
not sure our phones could handle it in full but

[voideity]

are we gonna start that neon text bs from the hallucinomemories

[parodeity]

do you remember neon text bs

[voideity]

yeah just a while ago nd i gotta ask d about it
he was typin in orange
and i was typin in pink
and i called him an obtuse dunderduck
*duck
*DUCK
what the duck
ok whatever u know what i duckin meant
or idk maybe i was calling myself an obtuse dunderduck but its a neat insult

[parodeity]

hit me up w/ your texty coor
obtuse dunderduck actually isnt half bad as an insult
we should adopt it into our internal family lexicon?

[caelestialis]

Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Oh yes!
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora If we have to play games to access this app, we should have more options.
Ainmalsy Furay Meowodora Frogger, Pac-Man, and Space Invaders for my top three.

[parodeity]

space invaders is a def
i wouldnt mind galaga either?

[caelestialis]

Galaga! Yes! We need to play a level or three of that if we also get Paccie.

Oh, you always have the best ideas.

[okitactless]

I want tetris

[Which would be a pain in the ass on a tiny phone keyboard...?? But look, Yamato's game knowledge is pretty limited, and he liked the music.]

[parodeity]

that would be kinda cool
unless you had to beat the entire game
to unlock it
since like tetris never ends

[okitactless]

I'd rather have endless tetris than social media I never asked for

[He says that, but here he is, using it anyway...]

Honyaka Clawsaka

[korekara]

oh my god
listen
if they make us play frogger i'm coming for oyu
am i not suffering ENOUGH

[parodeity]

is no one here good at frogger??????

[korekara]

DO TGHESE SOUND LIKE THE THREATS OF A GIRL WHO IS GOOD AT FROGGER

[darkinferno]

[parodeity]
