Posttraumatic Chess Disorder (PTChessD) is a mental disorder that can develop after a person is exposed to chess. Symptoms may include thoughts, hallucinations, or dreams related to the chess. These symptoms last for more than a day after the event. Young children are less likely to show distress but instead may become more skilled at chess. A person with PTChessD is at a higher risk for prolonged chess activity.

PTChessD will most likely never result in death, however, one-hundred percent of people who had this experience have died or will die within 120 years of first experiencing it. Other than this, there is no evidence that PTChessD is bad for anyone's physical or mental health. On the contrary, there is also no evidence that proves PTChessD is harmless. It's only a matter of public opinion that suggests PTChessD is nonthreatening.

In many cases, experiencing PTChessD can have a positive effect on a person's skill at chess, similarly to how one would improve while practicing.

Extent[edit]

While this condition is mostly centralized towards experiences of playing chess, many patients have reported having dreams and hallucinations about various Browser games. Bloxorz has been known to cause visions similar to PTChessD. Though the reported visions have nothing to do with chess, patients have been shown to play better at Bloxorz than when they did before having them.

The Wikipedian Lore of April Fools' Day[edit]

Wikipedia is a website. This is a commonly known fact. And with any website, there are people that visit and interact. And a day with heavy traffic is April Fools' Day. This wasn't always the case though. It wasn't until 2004 that users started making joke AfD nominations. That's not even the most significant part of this day. April Fools' Day, for Wikipedians, is a day filled with pranks. Presently, these pranks most frequently manifest in the form of the aforementioned AfD nominations. But it wasn't always this way. 2019 was the year that really kicked off the traditions that we have today.

And it all started...with a war.

2019[edit]

On March 31st in the year of 2019, a most curious event transpired in the world of the internet. It was a prank, a jest, a tomfoolery of sorts, and yet it caused quite a stir among the learned gentlemen and scholars who frequented Wikipedia. On this fateful day, someone had dared to alter the very header of the page, replacing the hallowed words of "General Tomfoolery" with the mischievous moniker of "General Jerryfoolery." The scandalous act was met with great consternation and amusement, as those who beheld the change were torn between their scholarly pursuits and their sense of humour. Such was the humorous nature of the internet age, where even the most learned of men could not resist a good jest.

This change was reverted, but this did not stop the chaos. It only fueled it. Soon, everyone wanted a turn to change the header. And before long, the header was undergoing large changes, mere minutes apart from one another. There were memes. There were schemes. It all descended into madness. It all was due to a measly little prankster who wanted to make a Tom & Jerry reference. No one expected a war.

Twenty-four hours went by, and hundreds of edits had been made. The war was over, and a champion stood. The ultimate header read ""The section title of the article that people kept edit warring over" foolery."

And that was that...or, at least, until 365 days later.

2020[edit]

As the clock struck midnight on April 1st, chaos erupted across the page, shattering any semblance of order that had been previously established. Editors, many of whom were quarantined due to the ongoing pandemic, were seized with an irrepressible frenzy, rotating and skewing the page, copy-pasting the contents of other articles, and inundating the page with copyrighted images. The resulting mess was an incomprehensible tangle, making it difficult for readers to make sense of the page that was intended to be documentation. Although some semblance of order was re-established after the page was semi-protected in the early hours of the morning, the "General Tomfoolery" section remained a hotbed of activity, with a never-ending procession of edits being made at a frenetic pace. Thousands of edits were made, and the only sight of the end was hours away. When April 2nd finally arrived, the Wikipedia community was left to rue the chaos that had so recently unfolded. The war was over, and April Fools' Day would never be the same.

Following the tumultuous events of that day, Wikipedians instated a prohibition on "edit warring," recognizing the chaos that it could create. From that point on, editors made a concerted effort to work together and avoid the kind of frenzy that had gripped them on April 1st. Nevertheless, the spirit of mischief had not been extinguished in their hearts. Instead, they sought new and more inventive ways to indulge their love of pranks, leading to the rise of the now-traditional April Fools' Day AfDs.

Although AfD pranks were around long before the edit wars, they became exceedingly popular following the prohibition. These parodies of the real thing, where editors nominate clearly notable topics for deletion under absurd and amusing pretexts, have become an eagerly-anticipated part of the Wikipedia calendar; a way for Wikipedians to indulge in their love of fun and hijinks without jeopardizing the integrity of the encyclopedia. Thus, even in the wake of chaos and upheaval, the community was able to adapt and evolve, finding new and innovative ways to pursue their passions and keep the spirit of April Fools' Day alive.

2021[edit]

This year, the Wikipedia community witnessed a most unprecedented occurrence. As a result of past wars, the popularity of Wikipedian April Fools' pranks — in the form of AfDs — exploded in numbers. So numerous were the facetious submissions that the page itself failed to load, leaving representatives no choice but to move the trifling nominations to a separate location. In the years that Wikipedia has hosted these pranks, this was the first time the fun had to be relocated.

Yet, despite the gravity of the situation, there were those who could not help but marvel at the ingenuity and wit displayed by the jokers. The joke nominations this year were far more creative than in years past, with topical punchlines and CSS effects that related to the articles themselves. It was a testament to the cleverness and inventiveness of the community that, even in the midst of chaos, they could find a way to infuse their merriment with a touch of artistry.

Yo, moron! Don't you forget to finish writing me!
