Cat takeover for April Fools?
What about someone who has furball in their username, would it still count as cat/kitten name

Cat takeover for April Fools?
the cat language suggestion is here: https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/537876/cat @greenFlag cat :: events :: hatwhat if every block just said “cat” repeatedly, maybe it could be a secret language in the settings, just called “cat”
cat (10) cats :: motion

Then how can you distinguish between pen down and pen up? I think it should becat @greenFlag cat :: events :: hatwhat if every block just said “cat” repeatedly, maybe it could be a secret language in the settings, just called “cat”
cat (10) cats :: motion
cat cup :: pen // pen up
cat cown :: pen// pen down

It could be an option that you could toggle on and off.

This may be a silly idea, but whatever
It may be fun to do a cat takeover for April fools. What I mean by that, is just cats everywhere.
By that, I just mean cats sitting on top of comments, buttons, and thumbnails for projects. They wouldn't cover up any words/images, there would just be… Cats.
Maybe paw prints could could be in certain areas and claw marks as well
It would also be a good chance to bring back the cat blocks for a day.
MAYBE people who have the word, cat/kitten in their username would have more cats on their profile. People with the word dog/puppy would have less, because dogs scare away cats. If they have both, then neither would be applied
I don't think the cats could be interactable, because it may lag things too much. I dunno lol
Why cats? They're a common pet. And I know at least one ST member has a cat. Besides, Scratch's mascot is a cat! They've done cat blocks before anyway
Wouldn't this confuse people? Yes, I'm sure it would. But people would relize it's April fools and could tell other people who aren't quite sure.
ST could also send out a message saying, “Sorry about all the cats! {Insert reason for cats (Could be real reason ((april fools)) Or a made-up one)}. We're doing our best to solve this issue!”
Although, messages from ST are usually accosiated with negitive things, so I dunno
Is this a bad suggestion? Let me know. I just thought about it, and I wonder what other people think about it
Ty for reading
I think it would be a cool gag, but there is gonna be someone going, “OH IFONSD

It'll just be like the cat blocks: Not in your way, and simply there. It's like if people didn't like seeing scratch cat when they stayed a project: You don't have to use scratch (And this'll only be for one day)

Just replace every image with a cat, and bring back the “Mystery” link
