April Fools Day can be a very disruptive experience in SS13. How disruptive SHOULD it be?

Very: Game turned on its head, normal rounds nearly impossible to hold without memes getting in the way.
13
25%
Decently: Memes significantly change how a round plays out, but the base game is still playable under the chaos with effort.
19
37%
Mildly: If you want to you can still play the game much like if it wasn't April Fools Day, but there's memes as well that some players might seek out.
13
25%
Barely: Memes are well hidden and out of the way, most rounds are more or less normal baring the occasional strangeness.
5
10%
Not at all: No disruptive April Fools Day memes at all.

Bottom post of the previous page:

As the day draws closer, I'd like to resurrect this to remind you that two or three maintainers remain completely adamant in putting a tight hold on any April Fool's features that are added. My questions as to how it will work in the end (testmerges? immediate reverts?) and complaints have been ignored or been met with either unjustifiable opinions or personal insults.
I'm an ex-coder for /tg/. I made the original versions of clockcult, shadowlings, revenants, His Grace, and other stuff.
I don't play, code, or participate in the community, but I occasionally post dumb stuff in the hut.

Kor and Izimann. Kor said that it was to avoid last year's issues (a problem that can be solved through closer reviewing) and Izimann said that he just doesn't like me.

Finally, an actual response! Every goddamn maintainer I ask gives me a different one! So you can say, with absolute certainty, that if I make a non-modular April Fools' PR for just this year, you can testmerge it and then I can close/delete it after?

I'm not a headmin so I can't say with any certainty what they will or will not test merge other than that one of them has expressed interest in one of my joke PRs and asked me to make sure it works.
