Why I didn't realize Suyo and MIC were lying earlier, I have no ♥♥♥♥ clue.
I'm SuYo the faker, I rant in Forum 23 so you don't have to.

Wow. Both the events of the day and the ensuing reaction were amazing, though for different reasons. I unfortunately had to work that night, so all I saw was the AniLo intro, but reading about the full plan, I think this was one of the best event ideas we've had (and yes, I do remember a simpler version being suggested by Suyo quite some time ago), and the best executed. I agree with Blab that you guys deserve major credit for arranging this and pulling it off with practically nobody knowing, and I think it is triply awesome for actually having plot (and I would have loved to have seen the final act and trophies, but oh, well). Bravo to all the principle cast.

As for the critics, it has been said before, and I say again, we have some young/inflexible people here who do not know how to take a joke sometimes. What can we do about it? *shrug* Not much. If we made sure everything was on the safe and simple side, all the older and/or more sophisticated users would be mad/bored, so this merely boils down to the fact that you can never please everybody. It seems like the majority of people involved fell into the confused/enjoying it group, and that means the project was a success. As with the Tea Party, just because a small group are really loud when they complain, that doesn't necessarily mean there's actually anything wrong with what they are complaining about.

All that time I was telling myself 'This is too much to be a joke'.

I'm now kicking myself. :facepalm:

I may be slightly gullible, but anyone who can make it so convincing like that deserves cookies. You mods are geniuses! A BUNCH o' cookies for your efforts, guys.
Also, you're welcome for being banned :L nah jk.

AniLo was freakin' hilarious.
God? Not as much... no offense to MIC. I thought MIC's acting skills were good. Maybe someone other than God..?
You should've just stuck with picking sides between Runouw and AniLo.
Say, did Runouw even notice what was going on? :?
