When I woke up and went to post in Fresh Mind account login, suddenly a captcha like a game shows right next to my post. I was worried about this. And when I was posting something was being written at the bottom of my post. After a lot of time, I realized that if I want to post from now on, I have to collect coins by playing this game and then post. If I post after completing the captcha, my account might have a problem. But after many attempts I was really disappointed when I couldn't collect the coins. But when I see every member posting without filling the captcha, I feel a little confident that since they are not posting after filling the captcha, there will be no problem even if I do. The way Royse777 designed the signature campaign had no way of understanding that it was April Fools. But the pay rate of this campaign seems very suspicious to me from the beginning. Why such a high-budget signature campaign opened on April 1 was highly questionable. And the spreadsheet hiding the escrow address hiding made me think maybe this campaign was a complete April fool. But I didn't want to take the risk, I applied for full membership in this campaign even though I knew April Fools. In my opinion, Royse777 pulled out a perfect one ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Theymos's April Fools is the best for me. Because I have thought many times that if I can't collect the coins by playing the game then maybe I won't be able to post anymore. And his fooling around seemed real to me, and to be honest I was very worried. But when I realized the next day that it was totally an April fool, I enjoyed it a lot.

The best April fool jokes are the ones that make people feel dumb for believing it. I'd say Royse777 nailed it!
Yup, I agree. It was maybe a little mean-spirited, but very effective! Theymos, although fun, has the problem that he does something every year and it's strongly anticipated. You can't trick people if they're expecting it.
Exactly. Most of the established members know something is coming, and the people that don't know are tipped off by the posts about it before the day. All theymos can really do is try to make something fun and memorable. FYI, it was one of your posts that provided the inspiration for this year's fun. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) I wonder how difficult it really would be to add a captcha requirement for every post. I know some boards have them, sometimes even multiple ones. I don't know if it hurts legitimate posting I'll leave Bitcointalk if that happens.

Imho the clear winner is Royse, although I am sure he has made a few more enemies with that. The interesting fact is that his prank could be seen also as a lesson, since it contains a few things we keep warning about: - an offer too good to be true - a campaign with rather strange requirements // something people keep ignoring although we keep warning people to read before jumping to campaigns - a warning to not be to serious about earning/making a living off signature payouts I know, the fact it's about a reputable campaign manager (OK, some may throw stones to me because of this statement) made people ignore the warnings and jump in. But hey, it was April the 1st!!
A worthy mention could go to dkbit98's list of April 1st HW offers thread. I'll also add Smartvirus' attempt too as a mention. Not too bad.
I was not impressed this year by Theymos' idea, it was far too obvious. Maybe the fact I lacked the free time I used to have "helped" too. Although I didn't know the context on LoyceV statement on leaving; that one was actually cool. Sadly I've missed satoshi's "I am back" merits. That was pretty cool. Shame it was not advertised more.

Lol. Talk about being mean-spirited ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Hehe, yeah I can see how it might look that way, but when I had the idea I factored in the 0% chance that you would be fooled. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) The opportunity to work with theymos on this year's event took me by surprise a little, so I wasn't as prepared as I would have liked to have been. If theymos and I team up again for the 2024 event, then I've got a much better idea that I think basically everyone will enjoy. It's quite a bit more elaborate though and will take around 200 hours of programming (compared to the 50 or so that I could spare this time around).

@T3PR00T You should have created a poll together with the thread where people can vote and where we can see the results. Considering that Royse777's new Sinbad thread had 10 pages, my vote goes to him as the clear winner. What I noticed the day after April Fools is that it shrank to 8 pages. I can't believe that people were deleting the "evidence" that they got tricked. That too was equally funny to me to the fact that we got tricked. Or maybe they expected some backlash from managers of their current signature campaigns and deleted their applications. It's funny either way. Theymos's wasn't bad, but since we have gotten used to him doing something every year, we knew that something was coming. It was only a question of what. I like how the game wasn't playable, though, and that the damn bird fell every time you tried to collect the coins. Am I the only one that doesn't know what TryNinja did

It's quite a bit more elaborate though and will take around 200 hours of programming (compared to the 50 or so that I could spare this time around). I already guessed, you are going to work on development of New Forum Software, make a copy of database and implement on that new forum software and then on April fools' day Theymos will upgrade forum software for a while and the next day we will wake up with SMF again. Well, I hope you'll team up because 200 hours of programming looks kinda scary and curious, can't really wait to see it happening. A lot of pranks will make that day more beautiful for sure ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I'm aware in advance that anything I notice odd on the forum that hasn't happened before is an April Fool prank. It's been customary for everyone on the forum to encounter the unexpected on April Fool's Day, so I was prepared for odd things to occur in the forum. I was already ready to resist being swayed or falling for any.
Things happen, and Royse practical joke touched me.
I had no idea what to expect from Royse prank because I had assumed that she wouldn't play such a simple joke that would be easy for everyone to fall for.
That is a thing of the past now. The April Fool's prank will happen again next year. We'll see how it turns out.

Honestly, I'm not happy with the pranks that happen here on the forum every April fool1, although it turns out not to be true in the end. It's just like what theymos did that before you can post you have to score the required points and if you don't reach the required score you won't be able to post and if you don't want to play and direct post immediately it will appear in the account you're a spammer, I was a little surprised and worried and relieved when I found out that it was just a prank.
Then Royse777's I immediately believed it and hoped that it was true, but after a few hours I started to doubt because there was no escrow shown, so I just let it go because I knew it was just a prank, but many people believed it too. and those who have a lot of merit also came out due to the size of the salary offer in each rank here in the forum.

Actually, the real prank is the one to whom more people fall for, and personally, I fall for Themos and Ninja, but when Royse brought campaign like of around 5btc escrow I thought that would be the highest numbers I have ever seen on bitcointalk in any escrow address, and I thought that would be a prank because no one can launch such big events on April fools day but still, I was little anxious because ryose777 did not show the escrow address for security purposes, I thought maybe she is not fooling us. And for theymos, I will fell like really bad if there was not a fixed notification on the top bar and when I have seen it and read other members' posts about it as a prank then I realizes oh that's the case because back in 2022 I was not that active on btt so maybe I missed the previous April fools day. The fun fact is I really liked the game and played almost every game that day even I was not trying to post anything. I really fell for Telegram bot, but before clicking on the link I thought why not check it on btt manually and i found nothing then I thought maybe the bot has been compromised then I give it up after sometime I came to know that's also a part of April fool hehe. But it was the greatest one. Well this also scared me because someone could compromise that bot and could convince us to click on the link as we unconsciously click on the link whenever it's from btt notifier (at least that's what I do) so from that moment, I always read the posts first then verify it by giving it a minor glance then I click on it.

I was most fooled by Theymos's April Fools. Even I believed it might be true. And I was worried about this until one date was over. I was a little surprised to see the new rules on the forum all of a sudden. But I think maybe this rule is made for forum development. Because there are many users who post irrelevant posts in the forum, maybe this new rule has been introduced in the forum to stop them. So when I go to post with interest and fill captcha according to that new rule I realize how difficult it is. And it's not just me, I've seen many big users on the forum who failed to fill this captcha. Seeing their failure I was very disappointed that how can we fill this cup where users like them are failing to fill captcha. But even if I was able to fill one of the two captchas with great difficulty, the rest of the captchas were impossible for me and I spent the whole day thinking about the fact that I could not match the captchas at all. Later, when I realized that these rules were made to fool users, I was shocked as well as very happy.
