Joke Mod v3.0.1  

Welcome to Joke Mod!
THIS IS STILL A WORK IN PROGRESS!!

Version 3.0.2 - Updated and working for A21.1 B16 ONLY

This mod is about 85% a joke, 10% serious, 5% butterscotch ripple. It has been an idea for years and is finally a realization. It literally started as a joke and grew from there. The mod has been made so that players can have a serious playthrough and not just log in for 5 minutes, have some laughs, and never play it again. Although some people might still do that. Rude!

This mod was thought up/created by RizzoMF and Zilox with consultation from Khaine and killerbunny264. Thanks also to our testers RedDaBoo, Dobbers, Jbirdgaming_, hijarl, darkness_from_above, Ecktos, peachykeen80, Yubinashi, Extruda, Celebanto, RoyalEagle_Kingdom, and Rowen_Blackwing_Gaming. Also, a big thank you to my community for the ideas and support!

Community members from whom ideas were stolen, er used: turbodiarrhea_, killerbunny264, Hehahigh, drbananastbagsyou, Hijarl, CloudZayne, xpenguin84x, Dobbers, and anyone else we may have missed.
