  • Actually - there is one thing I'm really proud of.

    The prank was all 'polyton's idea, and CFC was used as a co-conspirator.

    Yet - almost no one fell for it on poly, yet CFC had a total cow.

    I consider April 1st 2007 to be the date where Apolyton pwned CFC

    • It's about time they tell the truth.

      I knew it was fake, but I decided to get as much spam as possible in while it lasted

        • The planning of the joke was almost even more enjoyable then seeing how the joke got everybody on a move at some site

            The people's call it 'Pol Harbor. I think it's a funny nick
            No, no, no. Not the people's, just some from the OT forum. Since I don't hang out at our OT I had trouble at first distinguishing between who was CFC and who was Poly.

            Unfortunately I'd have to agree with you. I believe though that on average CFC has a much younger crowd than here.

            Interesting. I've never heard of the Polycast, but your link sounds very interesting.

            I hope you all (what was the word) Polytubbers don't mind if a CFC'er hangs around for a while.
            That is once I get the hang of your site...

No idea that would be the thing people seized on (if I did, I'd suggest taking it out ASAP). Though there was some attempts to minimize it by claiming THAT was the April Fools Joke in the totally serious merger .
                  It is true you would have benefited from having someone with both good knowledge and good judgment on board.

                    • A great joke. I had a great time on CFC watching the reactions. Just amazing

                      And still, I hope the work you guys did on CivJunction won't be for nothing. It really looks better than 'Poly webpages

                                It doesn't.

                                It is just as useless as the regular Civ IV / Civ II sections.
