[DGD] Pranks on your muds (was: mudlibs moving to java)

[Raymond Jennings]

As should be obvious to everyone by now, this was an april fool's prank.
 Especially after Oracle's courtroom antics lately I would not touch java

So, has anyone here pulled an april fool's day stunt on thier game?

Tell us.
