Admiral Refuge Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Marsh changed everyone to "Marsh", iirc.PS: Mistro was well played Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 lol, I vote Mistro for sure, seeing as I was one of the few that ddosed the site and all… lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 My Little Pony. I don't think Mistro caused this much drama. Although I'm obviously biased by the fact that my inbox was flooded with hate mail from people who're so insecure about their image that they can't handle a bit of pink. xDOnly one person got the 'Doctor Who' reference on the main page, though. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

death Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Mistro was unforgettable. I think that one takes the cake.I may just keep my name like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruins of Hell Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 It depends on what you mean by better. Mistro was funny, but it resulted in a DDoS, so that ended up pretty badly despite the joke.Personally, I'm going to say the My Little Pony. The amount of people rage quitting, leaving, or threatening to make new engine was simply hilarious. Robin's write-up was excellent and very convincing, we even managed to get some people who knew it was an April Fools last year. Admiral quitting made it even more convincing, as did other members quitting. We were also able to release lots of epic stuff, like the coloring pages in the Downloads section, and also the change of main content we would have never been able to do before. The name changes pretty much had everyone screaming that Eclipse is sinking. Great acting from every member of the adminstration team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
death Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Soul, it was rather sad that people actually believed it. As good acting was it was, it was so obvious of an April Fools.Mistro – Funnier but more dangerousPonies -- Funny but less dangerousI still prefered the Mistro incident. DDOS were worth it in my opinion. It rather showed the immature members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 Getting DoSed over it simply showed that people are idiots.Having people leave en masse and having everyone claiming that the entire administration was gay showed just how shallow everyone is. ;] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SawQuart Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 For some reason I can't remember the past jokes… I remember something about Mistro though, but I think I heard about it the day after.@Soul:> Great acting from every member of the adminstration team.Ahem.

SawQuart Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 The only funny part about MLP was that people actually fell for it despite how absurd it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral Refuge Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 @Jungletoe:> The only funny part about MLP was that people actually fell for it despite how absurd it was.IDK, the whole Mistro thing got a moderate amount of people believing it.

EclipseCommunity Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 I wasn't here for the first 2, somebody explain the stories. I can only vote for MLP in this case. But it was just far too obvious for me that it was an april fools joke. Still, I'm intrigued for next years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admiral Refuge Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 @Xlithan:> somebody explain the stories.@Pikachu!:> Somebody explain Mistro.Mistro cannot be explained, only experienced…. But I'll try the best I can.But to sum things up... One day, two guys signed up: Azure Vystia and Azure Mistro. And then, this topic was made:[Questions and errors](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,41412.0.html).Later down the road, other question topics were made, following the stereotypical "newb" line, trolling the forums with topics such as:[LOTS OF QUESTIONS](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,41417.0.html), [connecting eclipse](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,41420.0.htm) (my personal favorite), and of course, how could we forget the epic [a sprite of me](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,41424.0.html) topic (yes, that's what he had as his avatar).Of course, Vystia was [being pure epic](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,41413.msg410489.html#msg410489) as well; his account wasn't deleted, so that's worth taking a look at if you want.Well, after several questions in random tutorial threads, script requests, etc (which I sadly, cannot access), this topic came into existence: [Azure online!](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,41428.0.html).All was fine and dandy, until, of course, mistro made this in the General chat area: [admins read i want to buy eclipse and everything](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,41438.0.html) (then made another topic later: [how do i make shops??????????????](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php/topic,41536.0.html)).Anyway, then one day (April1stish, somewhere around there), people came to the forums to see that not only was all the administrators/moderators demoted (and they claimed to have no idea what happened), but Mistro was admin, Vystia was global moderator.There was a new topic made by Mistro; apparently he paid Marsh $10,000 (their life savings) to buy ToD Productions. I wish I could show you that topic now, but it was lost in the system restore (yes, it got that bad), but here are some quotes from it:"_i dont have to worry about any extra 1000 month costs becuse im moving everything to my freewebs site_""_all the adminstraitors and moderaters are demoted and my friends are going to and take there place_""_i am lerning sadscript and main.txt so i can make new versions of eclipse_""_touch of death productings will be renamed to a niser name like sunlight productins or Azure productings and eclipse will be called an Azure Engine_""_new rules!!!!!!!!!*no more being mean to noobs and telling them to put bananas in ears*EVERYONE HAS TO TEACH ME SADSCRIPT*pretend everytrhing is normel since im owner now_"At this point, Marsh was gone, there were new (and quite epiclulz) announcements from the two trying to figure out how to get vb6 so he can start working on the engine, and yeah… Things spewed into chaos.Eventually confused and angry eclipse members DDoSed the forums, costing marsh several hundred dollars in new memory (which he had to purchase to get the forums on again) and Eclipse had a "goback" iirc.I don't care what anyone says; nothing beat Mistro and Vystia; not even MLP (if you ever get the time, read those topics for some epiclulz).
