However we are kinda asking for it since us pacific people are on the far end of the time scale. We're the last ones to hit april fools day, and the poor guys in new zealand are already almost out of it by then.

April Fools runs on internet time.  The day starts when New Zealand hits midnight, and doesn't finish until the Aleutian Islands hit 11:59 PM. :p
