He really is, isn't he? I'd second the strangulation.

Well I thought it was quite funny, once I had been told it was safe to look.

I missed the fun because I never got the password!

Well that was actually meant to be directed at Bunny, cos she has a fairly recurrent tendency to threaten violence at the stick jester. But that doesn't stop everyone joining in!
I thought the prank was great, once I twigged that I had fallen for it and stopped panicking.

Oh, trust me, he gets revenge. Only more subtly...he DOES deserve retribution. Honest.

No, there's nothing to see here. Please move along. There's nothing to see here.

Oh. A puerile ruse, imitation list flummoxing outraged on-line lookers.
But it seems that this particular April Fool prank was dependent on people, having received their passwords, logging on before noon: just imagine if nobody had bothered - all that hard work for nothing!
I notice that two are 'siolved'. Surely that speeling errer would be a bit of a clue?
It also means that it can't be repeated, as we might expect something similar next year - and defer logging on until afternoon.
I haven't been into the 'Europe' section yet, as I haven't had much of a gander at the puzzles; no wonder I missed it.

Well actually I was fairly confident that I'd get at least one. And at least one is enough.

(And yes, it's largely non-repeatable. But that's true of most April Fools pranks after all.)

The spelling mistakes were irrelevant. I looked for less than a second before retreating, lest I see something I shouldn't.

Oh let me join in on next years plan! I loved this aprils fools because normally I don't see them - and this seemed some harmless fun . And for all the grief we give Scurra over the year -why shouldn't he have some fun in return? Agree it can't be repeated - but who cares...
