The Obligatory April Fools Speculation Thread

Postby Reploid Productions » Mon Mar 30, 2015 11:05 pm

Figure we might as well head it off at the pass and try to corral the speculation in one place. ;) So far we've had people wondering if The Chain is an April Fools prank. It's not, of course.

But what is? Hmmmm.... :p

Maybe we'll get a nice space exploration prank where there's "Space" versions of the feeders and sinkers and we need to take them over to mine resources or whatever.

If not, save that one for next year.

I think all the WA Categories might be changed.
Moralistic Democracy might be changed to Pizza Nation, Left-Wing Utopia might be changed to Pink Fluffy Unicorn Dictatorship, etc.

I haven't the slightest idea, but after reading of a few of the previous ones, I'm very excited about it. I've never participated in one of these before.

I want a return of the ByteCoin. But only if it doesn't lag up the system this time.

Byte Coin. Everyone was given the tools to mine some crypto-currency.
This nation is modeled on being my absolute worst dystopia imaginable. In no way do the Annihilators reflect my opinions, in fact I am totally against almost every single policy they enact.
I support insanely high tax rates, do you?

I honestly really like to write issues.
