I think you should wait until the very last minute to add the "losers" if you are going to do this. Otherwise people might start playing a game expecting returnees and there won't be any and it will fuck some people over. And I get that it's a joke, but this may seriously piss some people off. Like it's already going to be crazy enough with it being a merge let alone adding in this "drama" that doesn't need to be there. Once again I get it's a joke I just think you might need to sit and rethink what it may do to some people. Like I know that Robert and I joked about fake game merges and stuff like that in the past, but it was clearly fake from the start and didn't screw anyone over. This may screw people over if you add in two Losers and they see them in the members list or whatever. I just think it's a dangerous and unnecessary path to go down. |

Ya I'm scared about this honestly. When I was playing a different game, we had an inactive on our tribe for 5 rounds and during Round 6 we competed in a challenge, lost, and had to go to tribal where we planned on voting someone else out. The hosts then made an announcement that the inactive would be removed and tribal was over. We were all frustrated we were made to do the challenge, do post challenge strategizing etc and stay up and on the computer for tribal when the hosts planned all along they were going to remove this inactive before the merge. Granted, this prank isn't nearly as big as what I went through, but I can still very well see players getting pissed they spent an hour or so of their time here stressing when they didn't have to. On the same token, I've been in games with crazy shit pranks and stuff and no one was legit pissed. |

It's tricky because you did say Sunday isn't mandatory...just an announcement. |

No. I feel uneasy myself. No LARGE fuck ups (or any fucks up at all for that matter) have happened this season and I want to keep it that way. I don't want any of the players resenting me over a lame joke. It is NOT worth it. CANCELED! |

Exactly. I get it's a joke but people don't like having their time wasted. (Ew this was towards Robert's post about his game experience) I just don't see the point of it. Now if you don't add the losers until like right before hand then fine whatever. But if you do it say tonight then someone will notice and eventually people will start playing with the expectation that people will be joining. I just think it's unecessary when it's Day One of the merge and people are meeting and stuff for the first time. Now they have to start planning on 2 new people joining the game? AND THEN IT DOESN'T HAPPEN? I just think that it's a dangerous road. One that may pay off but ultimately what are the benefits of it? A good laugh? Like you waste an hour of people's time for that? Idk. But if you wait to do it until announcement time then maybe it will be okay, I just don't think it should affect people's games. You already have people like Lisbeth saying this might be her favorite game ever. Why fuck stuff like that up? |

I'm sorry. I mean a prank would be fine, but I just wanted to bring up what could happen. I didn't mean to step on any toes or kill the fun. And that is true Robert, but he's not Emcee. He's Blue. He gets enough crap as is. |

I'm ~professional~ now and I always felt "eh" about this April Fools shit. That's peer pressure for you. |

I'm j/wing how Mel and I ruined it though? We put a safeguard on it but it surely didn't jeopardize the prank in any way. |

Two cohosts complained about it, and now it is cancelled. Sounds like "ruining" to me. You didn't put a safeguard because a safeguard wasn't necessary. You do realize that he wasn't ACTUALLY going to have an Outcast twist, right? |

Yes the fact that there wasn't going to be an Outcast twist but then having the players think there was going to be one for three days is where the problem came from. |
