Thanks for playing.
Sadly, all the fun user titles are now gone.
Hey, I should have been able to make that post.
–BigT: former Timekeeper.
Thanks for making it happen.
Did I have a custom title? I didn’t even check for that. I doubt it. Anyway, kudos all around. It was a spectacular April 1st all around.
It was great. Good to see the staff getting pats on the back rather than the usual bitching.
Since you started one of the 13 conversations, you were Moderator for a day.
You took advantage of your powers, I hope. Did you unban your friends? Warn your enemies?
And because you were the first to figure out the pattern, you became Administrator.
Wait what? Does that mean that I was a Moderator for day too? I guess that accounts for my suicidal mood of yesterday.
Initially, the first few people to notice the April Fool’s changes and start a thread in ATMB about it were made Moderators. Cicero came in and figured out the theme, so he was made Administrator. From there, it spawned into pretty much everyone responding to any of the threads about the April Fool’s changes being given a title related to their post in some way.
Examples, from memory:

And here are some more from Marley’s post:
Qadgop the Mercotan will forever in my mind’s eye have serious wolf ass. Amen.
It was great fun while it lasted. My thanks to all those involved. I’m especially grateful because, while lots of people got custom titles, I seem to be the only person who also got my own forum (The Snuggly Kitten Forum).
But now I’m seriously bummed because, while everyone lost their special titles, I also, you know, (sob, choke) ah… (gasp)…
Well, I still can’t talk about it.
Think of all the un-wrangled kittehs!!
(Where did I leave that rum bottle?)
Noooooooooooooo!! Argh! I didn’t actually have powers, did I? I would have ruled with an iron first
Hah. Yes, yours was “smelly good status”
Right! That was it. Better than I recalled!
The forum titles were hilarious! Much fun.
Shoot! I had a temporary title, but didn’t think to do a screen cap.
