All the good sites have cool pranks, scratch came in late and only affected the forums.
Here are some example of good april fools sites
http://www.newgrounds.com/ Turned into Kevin Bacon, all avatars change into bacon and every posts ends with bacon and words refering to people (ie, I,me,you,he) all change to Kevin Bacon.
http://www.reddit.com/
There is a turn on admin privileges option when you log in which gives you full fake mod powers
http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/index.xml The cool new battle finder is a dating website
I think something like newground's prank would be good. Change all avatars to pictures of the scratch cat and put on a word filter that changes all verbs to "scratch".

Maybe we should form an April Fools committee to plan better events for next year!

Yes!
But if the community is involved, we won't have a surprise.
Oh - Paddle, do Scratch Team people have to pay 99 cents per post?

On deviant art everyone's avatars were changed to either Team Edward, Team Jacob, Team Gaga or some other thing

I'm loving the newgrounds one, I looked at a bunch of reviews and my responses to the reviews on my songs and a bunch of words had been replaced with kevin bacon, it's pretty hilarious how well it works

I hope so.
We're all equal.
The TBG doesn't cost anything, though.

Hmm....
I have a few ideas (some of which probably aren't a good idea):
-A you've been banned message JUST when you try to go to the front page
-All project thumbnails are replaced with waffles
-All text is backwards (not including projects)
-All front page projects are replaced with your own projects
-Zombies come out of the ground and say hello
-Replace all words with scratch (scratch scratch scratch?!?!?)

)THIS.
Seconded. XD
And when you click in a front-page project to comment, it'll show a big April Fools message. But users might go to their My Stuff page to comment on their stuff.
