LotRO: Well, Fred, you knew this job was dangerous when you took it ...

Via Avo, LotRO's April Fool's post. "Amon Hen" indeed ...

They *do* love their Chickens in that game, don't they.

Apparently.

I've been tempted by chicken play -- but Margie assures me it is rife with exactly the busywork missions that I hate.

Still, funny. "Amon Hen." Ha.

I now see that CoH had their little joke, as well: http://www.coh.com/news/archives/2008/04/city_of_heroes_47.html

LotRO was in beta testing last April 1st, so the majority of current players didn't get to see the announcement about the new player race: blue hobbits with white pants and hats, known as Smeorfs. :)

Ha. That CoX one was quite amusing -- though not quite amusing as Posi having to post that, yes, this *is* an April Fools gag.

Actually, some floating visual Biff-Bang-Boom effects would be kind of fun. :-)

By the way, if the post title is a Super Chicken reference, the quote is actually "You knew the job was dangerous when you took it, Fred."

Hmmm. Clearly I got my "George of the Jungle" mixed in there. I've fixed it (or at least changed the name).
