-Bionicleman- Posted April 2, 2013 Author Posted April 2, 2013 Yeah the whole thing was a joke. We didn't actually talk to Greg at all, though we probably will again in the near future. Hopefully anyways. So yeah, TSO is not Krakalin, void is not an element, we still don't know how or if Kapura teleports (which is why he would have been a cool Great Being), BIONICLE and Hero Factory are not in the same universe, and muffin button has nothing to do with anything. The previous interviews though were legit. Velika is in fact the Great Being, the Red Star is full of dead people, etc.

For me, BIONICLE was an epic science fantasy saga with a deep and complex lore, and was best when it was exactly that in its later years. I'm not sorry if that offended you.

We contact him outside of BZP, so any recent activity going on doesn't affect us.Thank you all for participating in this enrichment center event.

toa kopaka4372 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 This was pretty funny, made me laugh, but it's a bit of a cruel joke. Oh, my dashed hopes...

alpha123 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 This was really quite hilarious. I actually thought some of these may be true, although others were obvious jokes. I actually kind of like "Krakalin," and I've been wanting Void to be an element for... years. Muffin button. If the Kanohi masks are a type of technology and most of the MU citizens are Biomechanical beings then how would a Kanohi mask recognize the difference between a Matoran and a Toa? Muffin button

LQ1998 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 (edited) At first I was really excited to see this because both my questions got up and there was a lot of cool info. But I was sure it was fake after I finished it. Well played guy, well played. Your the only people who actually managed to prank me this year. It was a sick joke, but still :P.

Aanchir Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 What is meant by double bodies? even though it may or may not be true.A body double is an actor hired to basically impersonate another actor, usually without their face being shown. A stunt double is a common type of body double, in which a professionally-trained stuntsperson acts in place of another actor in an action scene that might be difficult or dangerous. Body doubles are also sometimes used in cases where the original actor for a role has died or their contract has expired. Latest MOC: PAIGE (Prototype Artificial Intelligence, Gynoid Expression)

ShadowBionics Posted April 6, 2013 Posted April 6, 2013 At first when I read this, I was super excited and happy. As I read it, I found myself getting slowly disappointed. Then at then end, I went into "ShadowBionics is not amused" mode and found myself sad. I guess a late April Fools' joke on me. It was too good to be true, and yet almost so convincing. I started thinking something was screwy with some of the silly answers as well as the Doctor Who and Harry Potter references. And is "Gold Skinned Fusion's name really Gold Skinned Fusion" or whatever the question said was sort of redundant in the sense there ought to be some kind of name for him out there someplace. After all Greg said he had a list somewhere which is currently lost, although that doesn't mean the Fusion's name was on there or not. And now I'm rambling, probably because I'm disappointed so I will just be quiet.

Hitoshura Posted April 6, 2013 Posted April 6, 2013 Well, from what I know in the GregF answers thing, the Gold Skinned Being's name was on there, but I'm not too sure. profiles

Zacian Posted April 7, 2013 Posted April 7, 2013 I stopped believing this until I saw the answers which are not even related to the question.

ShadowBionics Posted April 10, 2013 Posted April 10, 2013 Well, from what I know in the GregF answers thing, the Gold Skinned Being's name was on there, but I'm not too sure. I figured. I know I saw it either in an interview or some kind of posting, it was mentioned that Greg had a lot of names on the list, but he lost it after some moving was done. I almost imagine the Gold Skinned fusion's name was on there, but it's kind of a shame the list got lost. That would also mean that a lot of names that would have been assigned to certain characters are lost and they'd have to be named something else, if at all. But yeah, I doubt the creature would be named something as simple as what the prank interview suggests.

DuplexBeGreat Posted April 11, 2013 Posted April 11, 2013 So, so cruel. I thought it was real and the date was a coincidence, and that only some of the answers were jokes, but then I saw everyone else's responses. Krakalin... idk man

Yes, that was also part of the April Fools joke (to make the interview appear more authentic and whatnot). But it was changed back nearly two weeks ago, so I didn't think that was what Toa Zaz was talking about today.Good to see that it's not still there (or infiltrating other wikis). The last thing we need is for Krakalin to become BIONICLE's Peter Grate (supposed Hero Factory character with no mentions whatsoever in official media, but whose name has cropped up on lists of official characters on a few Hero Factory wikis).

The Legendary TNT Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Well that was just cruel. No kidding. The ironic thing is it was all kidding. I knew it was a joke at the point it said the answer to one of the questions was "muffin button" although, it still made me lol.
gunconvoy Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 Those were some pretty smark answers XD To bad its a joke, i found the idea that its all in the same universe to be some what interesting
Canama Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 I only saw this today, so I wasn't checking for April Fool's pranks. I didn't notice what was up until someone pointed it out. I figured that the answers like body doubles or HF and Bionicle being in the same universe were just Greg being snarky. (And that "Muffin button" was a horribly failed attempt at being snarky.) I guess this goes to show that I should be FOREVER VIGILANT. man remember when no one would dream of making a forum site without signatures that was tight
Meta-Mind Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 The Muffin Button is now canon, no exceptions. BZPRPG TIME, where you could have one post talk about dinner, and the next about lunch.

Caius the Liberator Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Ya, its almost 2 am where I live. I stayed up and am trying to boot up BS01 on my slow internet to cross reference this as well as read the comments to see if this WAS in fact a AFD prank. That is 30 minutes of sleep I won't get back. On that note it was a well played prank and an interesting read nonetheless. Hapori Tohu; The Heart. The heart of BZP. Long live The Heart.

Tenebrae Invictus Posted April 30, 2013 Posted April 30, 2013 Quite a bit late to comment on this, but I read it when it initially came out. Very humorous how uncharacteristic "Greg" was in all of his answers. Up, down, turn around, please don't let me hit the ground

Alyska Posted May 2, 2013 Posted May 2, 2013 Honestly, I laughed the hardest at this bit: Who created the Glatorian and Agori? After all they are biomechanical.NoWas Mata Nui a sapient being or just a computer program?YesI thought he was sounding a bit Moffat-ish, even before the Doctor Who bit. Also, it is my new headcanon that Fa- Matoran will always automatically face North unless they make a conscious effort not to. When talking to a Fa-Matoran, if you happen to be standing to the south, do not be surprised if he gradually rotates 180 degrees throughout the conversation. It's not his fault. 3DS Friend Code: 0018-0767-4231
