Café de Nuit

Esteemed members of the Fraternity,
Miladies,

We are unpleased to announce we are, again, short of money to keep this site going much longer.

Our server host was recently taken over by a billionaire and he just sent us this email :

"It's a disaster. Believe me. And I can tell you this because I'm the only one who can make it great again, because I'm very, very smart. And rich. Very, very, very rich. Women love me. There will be a tremendous increase in this Internet server's cost later this year due to the rise of coal prices. Massive, believe me. And it's all because of China. Sad. It's so important. My plan will be amazing. It's great. You have no idea, your head will spin. It's massive. Believe me."

That obviously coded message puzzled us, but so far we could not decrypt it.

So we once again made a collection among ourselves, the FoS members, but all we got was $4.01. The FoS site was in trouble, possibly to close by the end of April.

But do not worry, we found a solution! We just found out that respected internet news provider Buzzfeed has a new category of articles that includes horror and gothic themes! This extra source of revenue should keep us going forever with no need to do anything Foolish.

Search no further on the Internet for your daily portion of false history, alternative facts, and fake news, here's the infamous FoS MistFeed!

This explains why you will now see these great new advertising banners on the main page and the forum. And you can refresh the page to see all the latest and different news articles.

We need your feedback! Do you think the changes are positives? Please react in this thread!

Sincerely,

The Souragne Fraternity of Shadows: David, Joël, Leyshon, Nathan, Ron, Sharon, and Stephen

awesome.

And many thanks for all your work on this site!

That message above looks to be slightly more than 140 characters in length....

hmmm....

Something doesn't seem to be adding up...

Tread cautiously, guys. It's always bad news when the darklord contacts you...

I can't find a link for the MistFeed, and I need my alternative facts.
There's rumors now that Azalin won the war with Strahd, and Barovia hasn't been absorbed only because Azalin decided he didn't want such a bleak, backwards place.
I also heard that Tavelia was promising to Make Darkon Great Again in the eve of Azalin's return.

MistFeed seems to be the place to go check for the veracity of such things.

I think it's great news!
You fund the site! and we get all this news!
BTW, don't know if anybody else is aware of this, but possibly major changes coming to D&D according to John Wick Presents.

Indeed it is. Just watch the white feed box at the top of your screen. Click on whatever article interests you most and it will take you right to mist feed to read it.

and that's all folks... April Fools is officially over.

Thanks for playing along. I hope you enjoyed our fake news feed. Here are all 6 of the images in the rotation, and the link to "mistfeed" itself... An original concept by Jester, with further content created by Joel. Many thanks to them and the rest of the FoS for their input into this year's prank...

I have an ad-blocker. I couldn't see anything.

Ahaha, sadly I see this too late!
Thanks for the joke

Really? or are you still joking? I'm surprised an ad blocker actually triggered off our hacky coding. (I guess I made it convincing! )
Does it block the FoS banner at the top of the forum too? Or the Qtr Banner on the main site?

for a taste of what it looked like, turn off the adblocker for a minute and look here:
