OK, I know it's April Fools and all that shit, but seriously...this one is so wrong.

Go to their GeekDo "google spoof" at www.boardgamegeek.com , without being logged in.

Try the following search:
"Surprise"

Holy Mother of God. That's the WRONGEST thing ever, even worse than "WRONGEST" in a sentence.

I randomly typed in Puerto Rico when I saw that this morning. I enjoyed the result.

I tried a lot of different games, and various words -- there's some clever stuff in there. I was sad there was nothing for "barnes" or "mr. skeletor".

I typed "lame" and got every derivative of Monopoly they had.

I like the faux-Google interface better. You don't have to look at a massive wall of user bullshit just to look up a game.

I like Youtube's prank better. "1911 o' Vision"

or Hulu's

I applaud their creativity and sense of humor.

That is why they are #1

Yeah, I've got to hand it to them, I find this to be pretty funny. Anyone else search for Monopoly and end up with a Monopoly Fan microbadge?

If anyone cares you'll also get a microbadge for searching for "crom".

No, my opinion evolves much like a Barnes review. The gentle ebb and flow of say a Saint Petersburg review from "7" to a "2"

If you search for "octavian" he drops the hammer on your ass!

Agreed. Their convention is already half-sold out today with an increase in their prices. Amazing for a convention that just offers open gaming.

I didn't really find it funny but I did have some fun still. I ended up with a bacon and monopoly microbadge, a geekgold, and some awful photographs of Octavian, Derk.. plus some bad videos. Nothing really made me laugh but the random searching did keep me interested.

I wouldn't even have noticed if I wasn't on night shift. Not much else to do at that time so random searching seemed fine. You wouldn't believe how dead F:AT is at 3-4 AM. It's the only reason I blog really.

Where is this google spoof search thing you people are talking about? I used the game search but it's normal.
