April Fools Day
      #466604 - 01/04/2008 19:53

I've been assuming that the ANNOYING pop-up I've been getting all day about NeoBuddies is an April Fools joke.

Has anyone clickedo on it?

Yes, it is an april fools day joke, you fill out a survey and it matches you with a neopian character (always Bug Eye McGee) and then it pops up every so often to yell at you

Odd, he's not yelled at me, and only have gotten *one* popup from him. Hehehe.

A bit lame, but I liked the questions and answers. XD

Don't forget to get the Quiggle April Fool's avatar today if you don't have it already.

It's not ALWAYS Bug Eye McGee; I and a few others got Sir Fufon Lui. He's yelled at me quite a bit, LOL, but I played a lot today.

Good to know it is a prank as I don't like Bug Eye McGee and would rather not be lumped with him shouting at me all the time.

Sir Fufon Lui, Taradith? Which one is that he?

And in total today of playing; he's {Bug Eye McGee} yelled at me once, told me twice that he was glad he wasn't my pet, sorta said something about Coltzan and treasure, and... I think one more thing.

But for about two or more hours, I went to play Sims 2 and haven't gotten anything since. XD

Aww, I don't get pop-ups so I didn't see any April Fool's Day prank. And you're all saying it was interesting - I am jealous now

Anyone seen anywhere with some screenies or something? I doesn't like missing out

Sir Fufon Lui is a Musketeer-type Chia, LOL. I have the original screenie on my petpage but it wasn't enough to prevent people on the Neoboards from calling me a liar. Someone had several screenies but I only recall one other page with one screenie. (I took a bunch of other screenies and could certainly type the quotes if you wanted; I'm just too lazy to put any more online right now, LOL.)

Hope that helps!

Thanks taradith, and lol that the other person's screenie showed them looking at your lookup - even though they blocked out your 'name' from the actual lookup!

I'll have to have a poke around and see if I can find any more
