April Fools

and then...

Outstanding.

LoL i got the same :mad:

Me too,been playing for 10 years and got it now for the first time.Good one SI,i really thought for one moment that my Montpellier board would give me 575m.Once again,good job!!!

OMG. lol! You got me. I am managing Man City, so having so much cash thrown at me wasn't unexpected.

Edit: I'm actually on the 1st of April 2011 in the game. Coincidence!

heh, good one SI...

Got it too, nearly had a heart attack at the first message

It's funny though isn't it. Does your game time also have to be set at 01/04/ and match the PC's time stamp too?

I had this on FM08, i was well chuffed untill i clicked ok. I should have known something was obviously not right, but yet i still fell for it... school boy error.

This was in last years too. I'm sure the one before also

I must of never played on April Fools since FM08. Ty ftl.

You probably have, but unless you reach April 1st in the game while the real-life date is April 1st, you wouldn't see it. Apparently you also get a "Happy Birthday" message if the game date and real date are the same as your manager's birthday

I believe you can set your system clock to April 1st and get the message, same with your birthday.

In Operation Flashpoint, if you changed your system to December 25 or a few days before, you would get christmas trees with presents under them.

Looks quite odd to have tanks roll over them.

Take a look ,Just been offered this windfall by the board. 500 mill for new players and new stadium. but i bet if i apply for new stadium, i wont be able to because of planning permission.

Click accept I bet you do get planning permission

Is your chairmans name Raif Lopol by any chance?

I bet i dont.

what a bloody coincedence SI

They do not give permissions on April's fool day.

i got this aswell with my wigan team.

game clocks 1st april aswell.

Haha thats quite funny

Exactly what I was thinking, surely it's about time SI came up with something different for FM2011.

Coem on, give them a rest. This is the first time that I've seen a user DEMAND that new easter eggs should be created...

*shakes head*

wow. that was very clever. well done.

Pahahahahaha.

This time of year again.....

you forgot to blank out your name in the headlines P PIERCE

phil to be exact

I had this as well and I was going to make a thread but it seems everyone else has had it too!

It's funny though isn't it. Does your game time also have to be set at 01/04/ and match the PC's time stamp too?

Yes, the date on the game and your PC must be the same.

Thank you for joking with me

Doesn't really work if you're in the Northern Irish Fist Division and in 250K debt.

Nights on the Saturn had the greatest system clock easter eggs.

i was like dancig when I got this lol then april fools its awesome that they put this into the game

Thebag love the skin you have there,whats the name of that skin?

Off topic,but Phil Pierce,i am aware that others do too but why did you feel the need to mask your name? It is not as if we could use it to discover your visa credit card pin number.

the nights christmas edition that came free with a magazine is still the best thing to come free on the front of a magazine...ever..

LOVE IT

Got you all beat: $825mil with America FC (Brazilian 3rd Division).

To the moaners:

a) why click the thread when you know exactly what it'll be about?

b) been playing CM/FM for 13+ years and this is the first time I got anything like this. Well done, SI. I did a double- then a triple-take...then I hit "Accept"...then I hit the bottle.

lol, just got this with AFC Wimbledon. I was wondering if I'd accidentally ticked sugar daddy option at some point! Quality though.

Next year with FM11 you get the message that your star player is banned from football for a year.

While smashing your mouse through your brand new 24" screen you just saw the words "April fool" before the screen crashed in 1000 pieces.

I played through 2 months tonight to reach April 1st and get the message, but I was 10 minutes late - so I changed my PC system date just so I could see it for myself.

This is indeed very funny! Nice touch SI!
