So begins my least favorite day of the year. Anybody get pranked yet in the eastern hemisphere?

Nope, though a forum I go to was hacked by a former member today. The jerk managed to get ahold of administrator access, and made a mess of things.

I got pranked pretty good. It was well thought out.
You see, this Kirby website I work at had this clever idea to have well known staff members change their identities to members of a made-up group of "Magical Girl" themed Sailor Scout rip-offs. Pretty cool, but they didn't have pictures for the avatars. They were saying, "Oh, this will take a week at least" while I was thinking, "A few hours at least". I'm a speed artist. It's what I do.
So, I volunteer. Yay. I'm contributing. It didn't go as fast as I planned, or turn out that way, and the hour of April Fools' was rapidly approaching. So, what happened in the end? Those who thought of the idea abandoned it (all but one) once I was done with it, pretty much wasting all my effort.
They sure fooled me! That was some 24 hours notice pranking "So I said, 'You can't touch me there. You're my Uncle.' Ahhh, family."

This is very much late, but...
It turned out that the site I was talking about didn't get hacked at all. The staff played a very elaborate prank on everyone. At least it ended well.
