⭐ Merited by JayJuanGee (1)
Oh? That makes sense. The merits might have thrown me off too.. even though maybe the first two merits that came from bumbacoin for 50 merits and sukamasoto for 30 merits should have had been clues that it was a fake screenshot... especially since I had never heard of those members, but I did not even really look very closely at trying to figure it out.
Initially, I had thought that the forum might have activated satoshi's account for the mere purpose of the joke.. which does seem a bit much, but sometimes we seem to tolerate a lot of extremes in order to make April Fool's jokes.

Whoever toke the screenshot is a noob in Photoshop or whatever software they used. I don't think anyone was fooled because that was looking so fake. I would rather use inspect element on one of the satoshi's posts and edit everything if I wanted to do a such prank. That would look more realistic. I don't know if you use TryNinja's Telegram bot. He tried to fool everyone yesterday by giving fake Merit notifications by satoshi. Guess what, it didn't work properly due to the Telegram HTML error. Still, he got shahzadafzal.
Goddamit, did I really fk this up? Telegram's HTML parser didn't work for some reason. 
It was supposed to look like this:
Next year's, maybe...
Hahaha still you got me there! It was supposed to look like this:
Next year's, maybe...
I had to go back and check my merit history, then I searched through my posts. And I didn't stop there - I even looked up Satoshi's last active date and his merit history.
So, overall, you won this one.
I'd rate it even higher than theymos's April prank, because that one was predictable, but this was a complete surprise.
