The April Fools ARG was a prank by the Game Detectives moderators on 2016-04-01 that appeared to be the much-promised "inhouse" ARG. It wasn't.
April 1, 2016
This ARG began in a channel named #arg-inhouse for how it once behaved. The command beno inhousearg led to a QR code. This code led to http://benolot.xyz/inhousearg. The password was a legendary user's name (Opl). This led to sneaky.png, with a poem about Opl. Opl was known for a command that reminded him when to eat. The command Shiina remind 10m f lead to http://benolot.xyz/f/. A .RAR file was downloaded from the site, with the password being Opl. The file f.png was then discovered, revealing this ARG was actually fake.
The Reward
Thanks for playing everyone! It was only an april fools joke! We may run an Inhouse-ARG Sometime in the future (it's currently 4-5 months behind schedule). While you were solving it, we wrote some limericks we thought you'd enjoy. there once was a mod named svard who was constantly always on guard when asked why this was, he said "it's becuase the bans i hand out make me hard." - crash crash wrote a poem about Svard, Proving himself quite the bard The mods were all moved, Svardskampe approved And the fake ARG was prepard - imnotgoats there once was a coder named beno whose programming skills were no bueno she asked pica for help, who then just said "welp, i'm gonna jump in a volcano" - crash Dr. Dino liked laughing at words Found humour in all that he heard Tried to find a domain That included his name But they had all been taken by nerds - imnotgoats Picapi was feeling absurd So stepped into a discourse he heard He listened quite far Changed his own avatar And returned as an antarctic bird - imnotgoats there once was a writer named goats who ardently wrote up his notes describing sex tables but he wasn't able to give any good anecdotes - crash wyh always felt quite a rift As his time zone was not quite a gift He tried to keep up But overfloweth the cup Cuz he was stuck on perpetual night-shift - imnotgoats there once was a mod named sarcastic the last part of his name was fantastic he was not here for this and we will always miss the mr. sarcastic fantastic - crash Sarcastic logged off too early Couldn't join in the fake ARG The other mods felt quite bad And wished that he had But he didn't, so Sarc, we're sorry -imnotgoats goats isnt brave, hes a bit of a coward he toldus a story of how he sexually flowered he regrets what he sent said he asked for a friend and thats how we learned that his real name is howard - Dr. Dino (Goats name isn't Howard btw, it's an internal mod meme) And just remember... ITS JUST A PRANK BRO!
