Well, first of all, sorry because I did not read all posts before posting.

Secondly, does this mean that you mods and admins know what is this about?

Hell.

You know all those things that you've always wanted on NS but are never going to be added? War, trade, etc. Imagine having those waved in your faces, but never actually being made. Or imagine being split up randomly into 'worlds', and being unable to play with your friends. Or imagine having to pay just to change your flag or have a custom pretitle.

Essentially, it could have been fantastic, but it was crap.

There are a few possibilities:

1. All nations will have access to regional controls based on influence, and founders and delegates will be powerless.

2. Regions with 20 or more nations will CTE, and only regions with less than 20 nations will survive the update.

3. The illuminatti haxxored Max's access to the site and kidnapped him. This really is the end of NS!

Founders - be online for the minor update April 1st, and watch and see what happens to Ether, because it updates close to first. Sorry if some of you have regions that update in the first 30 seconds, though...

Alternatively, this year's April Fool's joke could be getting everyone on the edge of their seat to speculate about what this news post means, when in reality there are no plans for any major changes to be implemented in the near future.

It would explain why this was posted a week in advanced.

I am still preping the region I am founder of. Better safe than sorry.

(Then again, getting a regional delegate and passwording the region is futile compared to an Administrator monster of any kind.)

Whatever happens on April 1st, though, be careful. There could be some spring-loaded traps like with the Hax0rred joke.

Every time one of you guys say that the more obvious it becomes that it is related to an April Fools prank :p

Which may be the prank?
