This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Reading in the general rpg forum about how sad WOTC's april fools was this year got me to thinking about how good Blizzards were.  Really did some work on them including some videos and screenshots.

These were by far the best April Fools jokes that I have seen this year for gaming stuff.

I dunno. The IGN Zelda movie trailer was pretty good...
