Aha--my insidious marketing scheme has worked!  Now that I have made many of you dependent on the card database, it’s time to start charging! Starting tomorrow, embedded flash and pop-up ads are going to be added all over the site. There will also be a 30-second delay for viewing each card while you hear a word from my sponsors.
But of course there’s good news too! For a limited time, I will accept sign-ups to get the ad-free version for just $30 a year! Hurry--this offer ends TODAY! Tomorrow the price for a premium membership is going up to the standard $50!
Of course, if you forget to sign up today, you can always send me an email tomorrow dated yesterday via GMail.  |

Thank God it’s April 1st.... 
...This is a jest, right?

| Never kid about politicians. The more bizarre the joke, the more likely it is to come true. |

This, boys and girls, is what is known as "the catch." 
Happy April Fools! |

| Surely a 30-second delay is too short to admire the genius of Kralik on every page. |

Panic! Mayhem! *quicly checks lotrtcgdb.com*
Wait, we’ve been hoaxed! By our normally very reserved gentleman Kralik!
You never know what to expect in April fool’s. |

Didn’t you read the announcement? Starts tomorrow! 
For future reference, though, know that I have no intentions of adding ads or doing anything of the sort. AdBlockPlus is my friend.  At some point I’ll program my own search engine so that I can do away with FreeFind’s... though text ads aren’t that bad. |
