April Fool's Day is celebrated on the first of April, by means of pranks, jokes, and hacks. Given the PPC's metafictional nature and Rule of Funny, it has a history of sparking odd happenings in Headquarters.
Previous Pranks[]
- 2008
JulyFlame "Merry Prankster" Teatar Bel-Aired the Board, alongside converting the Main Page to be its EPC counterpart.
- 2009
The PPC Main Page was again converted to the EPC Main Page. There was also an RP on the Board about the EPC invading HQ, later declared non-canon.
- 2010
July converted the wiki to a red-and-black theme with a painfully sparkly purple banner. The Main Page proclaimed the wiki to be for "Perfect Prissy Characters" whose mission was to go out into the worlds and give everyone makeovers. This attracted several fangirlish personae to the Board, much to the dismay of those who hadn't quite realized it was meant to be funny.

The Sunflower Official took over the main page and put up some silliness about the PPC being real and a bunch of ridiculous "facts" about HQ and some of residents, such as Lux and Makes-Things. Who would buy that? Rumors suggest that the SO will have to make flashy changes to the wiki's layout rather than just replacing the text if anyone is going to take any notice.
- 2013
A power outage blacked out the Board, switching the background from white to black and turning the links electric blue. This corresponded with a Blackout in Headquarters, which led to all sorts of shenanigans when HQ's shielding began to fail. Zingenmir also posted a fake mission unrelated to the Blackout, which can be found on any of the pages of the agents involved.
