April Fumble!

Post by archonix » Sun Apr 01, 2012 7:26 pm

Ok, you figured it out, that was most definitely an april fool. I mean, come on, whalemaids? Are you kidding me?

Dudongs, that's where it's at!

Anyway, it's a little true, some small updates and changes are coming when I get back from Sweden but they're more of a functional and not really worth mentioning nature. What is worth mentioning is that the ever-announced Drabble and Sketch competition is finally going to get a fixed start date. Starting on April the 16th, a competition will be posted every day with winners getting front page treatment and a big virtual hug from me. Details will be posted on the day. Isn't that wonderful?

I fumbled onto this on Yahoo. Lisa tells the origin of April Fools.
