Re: An apology. *Short* or *Very Long.*
Posted By: Count Zero <countzero@bungie.org>Date: 4/4/05 12:39 p.m.

In Response To: An apology. *Short* or *Very Long.* (Stuntmutt)

: The short version - it was all an April Fool's gag. Apologies for any offence
: caused.

First of all, let me say- Good show. It was very funny and convincing.

However- I must object on general principle to the idea of April Fool's jokes that extend beyond the boundaries of April Fool's Day itself. It's all well and good to have a specific day devoted to silliness and mistruths, but AFD is gradually extending forwards further and further so that now information several days in advance is suspect. This is a trend we really shouldn't be contributing to, and I don't look forward to the day when the second half of March is completely full of fake news and I'm repeating this rant with "February" in place of "several days".
