Hello, guys.

[FM3]

I had thought this place disappeared years ago. Assuming this place is the same as Rumble City... I do see a few familiar faces.

[A Black Falcon]

Real? Not? Any guesses?

[Dark Jaguar]

Could this be the real deal? Or not? I'm scared. <font color= "D4D4D4">

[A Black Falcon]

Its still here for now, DJ...

[Dark Lord Neo]

Umm who is this, I dont' know, what's the histroy
If he's still here tommorow then maybe it is the real deal, but then again he signed up on March 31st and not April 1st

[A Black Falcon]

Well then you weren't here in 1999 or 2000 were you? FM3 posted here then... then he left sometime in 2000 and eventually became Fran at IGN...

[OB1]

Hey Fran, I'm glad you got my e-mail.

Guys, I sent him an e-mail with the new url so this might be him. Or it could be an april fool's joke.

[A Black Falcon]

Given the date, you never know...

[OB1]

I think it's fake though...

[Dark Jaguar]

Laser Link you trickster! That's it, I want in!

[FM3]

Woah there! Guess I picked the wrong day to show up again. Oh well... Anyway, here's some news right off the presses. Heard about these new Nintendo game front PAnasonic Center stores in Japan they have now? Well, I have. Quite interesting little things, but I can't say any more than that.

[OB1]

Well if it is you, welcome back. Congrats with the IGN thing, BTW.

But it is April 1st so you know that no one is gonna believe you. You've got to give us some proof, man.

And what about the Nintendo game front Panasonic Store Centers?

[FM3]

Hey there OB1. Yeah, I got your letter, but I wasn't aware it was you until, well, someone else got a hold of me. You should try being more direct some time. Anway, thanks for the link here Weltall. I likely wouldn't have made it without ya. Oh and OB1, still defending Jar Jar Binx?

[A Black Falcon]

"he can't say any more"...

And on April 1 all the news at most sites is fake...

Oh yeah and if it is really you, do you or anyone else remember (or be able to look up) original signup date/postcount?

Cow pic now?

[A Black Falcon]

:lovelycow:

Oh, and OB1 still defends ep1 whenever anyone brings it up...

Haha, how wasn't I direct? The second e-mail I sent stated that I was from Tendo City and that that's where I got the FM3 name from.

And it would be real easy for you to prove that you're the real FM3. Just post the exact e-mail that I sent you. I made a copy of it so don't try to fake it. :D

And about Jar-Jar, I still like him. I think of him as the poor retarded kid that nobody likes.

So do you.

[A Black Falcon]

But I say that I found Jar Jar extremely annoying and find the movie good despite him...

[OB1]

Well of course he's annoying. But I don't think he's annoying in the "I want to kill you!" way. It's more like "jeez, you just don't know any better, do you? stupid gungan".

Something like that.

He's annoying, but I also like him. Kind of how I like Threepio in Empire even though he's very annoying in that movie. Or how I like you even though you often annoy me.

[A Black Falcon]

I thought TPM's biggest problem was it was just lacking in humor... the old movies were great with it and TPM just didn't have it except for the idiotic stuff Jar-Jar did... but they fixed that in AOTC...

[OB1]

Yeah that's true. I still like TPM a lot though. Less than the other movies, but it's still very good.

[FM3]

Hi FM3 (ahem), just wanted to let you know that there is already a SC movie in the works. Sammo Hung (awesome martial arts star who has done a hundred incredible MA movies over there.. so don't give me any Martial Law crap) is going to direct and uh... that's all that's really known so far. If it ever gets made it should be pretty cool. Sammo is the kung fu cinema king.
-OB1 from Tendo City

Is this what you meant? I think I got more than one, but I always delete my e-mail except for anything I plan on responding to. I think you would too if you recieved the amount of mail I did. The only reason I got this was because I responded to it, and in fact saw you posted it in another thread. I don't think this is the one you meant though.

[OB1]

Hehe, yes I did post it in another thread.

But I'll just assume that you're the real FM3 for now. ;)

So how's life in San Francisco?

[A Black Falcon]

I dunno... quoting from another thread here, some stuff about ob1 that everyone here knows (his like of ep1)... I'm not convinced... :)

[OB1]

It's fun to play along though.

[Great Rumbler]

I wonder if that really is Fran or mearly a cheap imitation bent on tricking us for it's own amusement...

[Dark Jaguar]

Actually, last year we had the prank were someone supposedly got REALLY angry (and had admin privilages) and tore the place apart. It was rather amusing, but I forget the details...

[Private Hudson]

Fran = Boobies?

[A Black Falcon]

[Sacred Jellybean]

He means... like... is FM3 fake, like some boobies? Yunno, boobies with implants...

Fakest fake that ever faked. He's putting on a dishonest, confident-yet-cutely-naive demeanor. WELL I WON'T BUY IT! EVERYONE KNOWS YOU'RE SCARED, FM3! VERY, VERY SCARED!

Of Link. Or GameCube. :evilcube: Or Wind Waker. :evilcube: Or poorly-designed recursive functions in C++ that result in infinite loops and random access memory loss and sheep, oh the little sheep. (there's no sheep icon :()

[EdenMaster]

Use Spam, Sacred.

*spam*

[A Black Falcon]

If that's what he meant, then sure... this FM3 sure isn't being too convincing that he isn't someone in disguise...

[Sacred Jellybean]

:love:

[A Black Falcon]

Yup, its FM3 all right Uh huh. Yup.

If you can't figure out what I mean... think! :)

Wasn't it suposed to be Ice-9
Weltall brought the fake ive-9 back a few days before and then he atacked on April 1st

[A Black Falcon]

Well compared to last year's fake ice-9 this year's fake FM3 isn't nearly as big a joke...

[Laser Link]

To understand recursion you must first understand recursion.

[Dark Jaguar]

Yeesh, that wasn't last year's joke. ice-9 was the joke of the year BEFORE last. I guess last year's joke with smoke-x going off the deep end wasn't memorable enough...

[A Black Falcon]

Well ice-9's "return" is more memorable than that thing last year or this "return" of FM3...

[Sacred Jellybean]

I imagine it must be difficult to outdo one's self every year... but this year's return of FM3 was a pretty clever, what with OB1 recently e-mailing him and saying how it'd be cool if he visited back.

[A Black Falcon]

The email was real...

The return was not.

You know... you HAVE to do better than this! I mean... all it takes is a little check of that "IP" button and I know that ... yup, Weltall (the first FM3 post) and Dark Jaguar (the other 4) were responsible.

A real admin privilidge... imagine that...

[OB1]

Well of course it was fake. I asked him to post that second e-mail I sent him and he posted the one that I posted here in Tendo City.

[Weltall]

You know, you might think I did the whole Sellout thing to throw you off of that, but the honest truth is that I came up with both on the fly. Nothing was planned. I started with FM3, and once LL quickly discovered me, I decided to do the ad blitz.

That's all there is to it. That this thread is this long means I achieved some sort of success :D

[Dark Jaguar]

Yeah, though I planned my own joke. I succesfully fooled a total of TWO people, into thinking that whoever was pretending to be FM3 wasn't me. I'm sure ABF was caught off guard after the IP comparison, after all I pointed out how ridiculously obvious that it was a fake after each post I made. Then, I'm sure it made sense, for I was a little too interested in the FM3 thing in retrospect, but only in retrospect!

I bet that April 1st snuck up on Weltall as fast as it did for the rest of us (what with all the game releases). Next year he likely will show no mercy. This is the guy who did the Ice 9 thing (of which I was totally absent during and only hear in passing) and last year's prank of awesomeness (of which I actually played a small part).

[A Black Falcon]

Oh, I didn't really think he was real... especially once he couldn't produce that email and said nothing people here wouldn't already know...

But I thought that it would be just one person, not two, pretending to be him...

[Dark Jaguar]

I didn't say that. I said you didn't think I was the one pretending to be him! That's the joke! Maybe my jokes are too cerebral, or maybe they should be funny to more people than just me...

[Laser Link]

Yeah, it's pretty hard to fool everyone with a fake poster, because half of us ave access to the IP Log. But it still amde ma laugh. If nothing else, this beat Nintendojo. Anyone want to guess what Ninendojo did? Yes, for the 4th consecutive year, they did something about Square making exclusive Ninteno games. Hooray for creativity!

[Dark Jaguar]

Oi vei. I mean, now that Square IS making exclusive Nintendo games, it's just not funny.

[EdenMaster]

Laser Link, might I make a suggestion?

That classic Laser Link Game Boy Advance sig picture you've had so very, very long, perhaps it is time to transfer that image to a GBA SP?

[Dark Jaguar]

Only when an SP comes out with little Pokémon on them!
