Yup...pretty sure this is not the best TNT April Fool's Prank...Bug-Eyed McGee is rather hideous and irritating, though.

It does work for Premium users...trust me...ugh

It's not a real popup. I think it's random when it happens. It'll probably show up sooner or later for you. :)

Ugggh. The more I ignored him and exited the screen, the bigger and angrier he got. Not the best prank ever.

Try playing Neoquest with it. I was ready to kill him. :P And he kept calling me some sort of weird name and yelling at me. At least it's over.

In a strange sort of way, I am still laughing at it, though. I think TNT did a good job making fun of the fact that there are crazy people out there (crazy in a different way than we are here at PPT), and what could happen if you go involved with one.

That was TNT's April Fool's joke?

That was seriously lame...

I never did go get my "buddy." I just let the popups keep coming. At one point one of them said, "I'm not going to go away until you get your buddy!" Had I stayed on longer, I wonder if the popups would've gotten more insistent or hostile. :P

"Go get your buddy RIGHT NOW, or so help me, the baby Blumaroo GETS IT!!"

Now that would have been fantastic!

...Right off the cover of National Lampoon... or is that too violent for NP?
