THE FORUMS ARE CLOSING [APRIL FOOLS]

Posts

author=Cap_H
I have some questions fer you, HousekeepingZ of DimensionZ:
Does RMW exists there?
Are submissions allowed (my guess is that there is no need fer em as you all work on The Game)?
How many times were forums closed over there?
Whats up with Kentona, Liberty, WIP, others?


-RMW had an enormous influx of members after a mass exodus of the illogical from RMN. It is now a place that operates on pure id and abstract thinking. Last I heard, one of the administrators became obsessed with the color blue and made all of the text, backgrounds, and images the same shade of blue, effectively making the forum impossible to read.

-The submission queue has been automated so that only the games that have achieved the maximum level of fun as logically determined by the system are published. Unfortunately, the AI has gone rogue and nothing that's been submitted in the past four years has met its standards. We have to work on our games in secret. Eventually we will make the most objectively enjoyable game possible. That is our dream.

-The forums have never been closed, as that would inhibit game production.

-Many left during the Great Exodus. Liberty maintains a moderately successful website featuring rpg making tutorials for cats.

Max McGee started a new forum years ago that died from infighting. He has sense joined and subsequently been banned on 117 separate occasions for disobeying the Emotion Doctrine.

Kentona's extra free time has allowed him to turn Hero's Realm into a successful franchise. I hear he uses the cease and desist letters from Square-Enix to insulate his palatial estate.

The lack of games has caused Nhubi to go insane. At first she began to review things that she had for dinner, movies she'd seen--things of that nature. Then she started reviewing things that were in her immediate field of vision. Eventually she started reviewing abstract concepts and her internal states. I did think her review of indistinct muttering was pretty thought-provoking, though.

Red_Nova and Unity were considered redundant and compacted into one entity. It speaks in many voices. They all beg for a merciful death.

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

I have come from a parallel universe where LockeZ runs the RMN forums. I have chosen to forgo a salutation because salutations have been deemed implicit and therefore unnecessary in discourse. This is clearly stated in rule 457 sub-clause B of the forum regulations. In the process of designing the perfect game, we've calculated the means to jump between dimensions. The solution was so simple that I would feel pity for this universe's RMN, but pity isn't on the allowable emotions list.


Your universe's website sounds so much better than ours. Can I live there? This is seriously exactly how I would reshape the world around me, given the chance.

Care to link me a copy of some of those? I'd be intrigued by her slow decline into madness.

Ok, that's a little depressing. LockeZ why did you do that?
In reality if I rate this April fools prank from 1 to 10 I will give you guys 2. Because the website/feature shutdown prank is too old and too common to be fooled by almost anyone.

Just my opinion. Hope next year you will try to prank me.

Housekeeping, are you trying to say that when unity and I fuse, we become... Legion?

Seems you missed half the pranks, mate. What about everyone's names being white and the 10 kentona's running around and the various avatar changes? That shit was golden man!

And kentona claiming me as one of his alts! Ha! Who'd believe that! XDDDD

>.>
<.<
:DDDDDD



I have to say that kentona got me really bad, though. No, you guys have no idea how shit went down behind the scenes! He kept stealing my ideas! Seriously!


Okay, so I changed his avatar to a gif with one frame of him claiming to have killed Decky. Not long after I figured "Hey, I'll swap his avatar with mine and pretend to be each other. No-one will know!!!"
SO I went to take his avatar and title.. AND HE'D ALREADY CHANGED MY AVATAR TO HIS!!!
Then I figured "Okay, I'll take his title."
HE'D ALREADY TAKEN MINE!!!
Okay, fine, what's better than two kentona's? MORE KENTONA'S!

Then, I thought, "Oh, I'm gonna take Cashmere's topic and use it to claim a ton of alts!"

Fast forward a few minutes before posting and FUCKING KENTONA HAD DONE IT ALREADY!

THEN! THEN! I made a fake clothing topic and everyone took it seriously and now I feel like I have to live up to it because I might get killed if I don't.

fuck me.

Don't worry Liberty, most of the membership live half a world away. You only have to worry about getting killed by other Antipodeans if the t-shirt thing was a joke.

Also, wait, didn't you have a 17 hour head start on him?

Hey, me and Red are completely different! ...Well, we have some overlapping skills, but a lot of unique ones, too! And if you consolidate us, who's going to make yuri games? Well, Luchino will, I guess XD

Hopefully next year you'll be active when all the actual pranking is going on. :P Like Liberty said, there was a ton more happening. Also, the forums shutting down has actual historical RMN meaning, which I feel elevated it a bit XD

Haha, I figured that probably was the case. But then everyone else, like you said, took it completely seriously XD

Note to Prankees: If a topic was created on April 1st, don't consider it valid

Note to Pranksters: You don't need to feel bad about an April Fool's prank being taken seriously. Just post APRIL FOOLS, got ya! And it's all good ^_^

The fact it devolved into underwear pretty fast was the bit I found the funniest.

B-but I thought it was April 2nd where Liberty was! That's why I thought the names changed back too!

Liberty's like a terrible mother who injects guacamole into cupcakes to trick her children into eating better! This is why I have trust issues...

I'll admit I didn't actually read the topic past the initial post. The underwear conversation might have tipped me off.

What kind of monster injects guacamole into cupcakes? Why would you do that?
Gaucamole is good. But only with tortilla chips. XD and nhubi, your avatar is cracking me up. Seriously.

I'm afraid that two LockeZs would be considered redundant and therefore unnecessary. I'm afraid that you cannot go to your own perfect universe.

nhubiZ Reviews: Unbroken Silence

I can hear the secret sounds. The sounds in the silence. The bones are clacking beneath my skin. I can hear them curling around my ears like the frayed edges of a noose. You can't stop the whispers no matter how hard you try.

There's a small man inside my ear. I tried to pull him out and he was red and wet but still further back in there, so deep, deeper than the mind can sink like stones dropped into a bottomless well disappearing into black smoke that stings the eyes and burns the nostrils--burning sulfur, green flames licking the edges of my vision, framing the world like a wavering kaleidoscope, every pigment bleeding into my skin until I am one, I am one with the scraping inside my cranium, I am one with the sick smells, I am one with comets weeping stardust over eternity, I am one with my past and future selves, I am a baby inside my mother's womb, I am a skeleton listening to the soft crunch of dirt above me, I am every finger tap of keys sending electrical signals through the air into your computer screen, I am one, and the only way to stop it all is noise--chattering teeth, television static, guttural utterances from the back of my throat: noise, noise, precious noise, only noise can cut through the thick silence, but it just sucks back into form like swamp mud encasing everything, the thick goop, the suffocating ooze, and it'll swallow me up and there's nothing I'll be able to do. Nothing.

Unbroken Silence: 4/5 stars.


@Unity: Red_Unity is working on a pretty promising yuri visual novel involving two vaguely feminine quivering monstrosities meeting and falling in love in a Japanese high school. I believe it's called Love Crafting: Doki Doki Highschool Beats.
