I had to explain the joke to them, heck i even looked for team 1337 until I realized it was part of the joke.

[soapbox]just a friendly reminder to other teams tempted to try this again: the volunteers are taking time off from their busy lives to help you out. They are just as tired as you are and they my not understand why you are "pranking" them. It think it would have been much better for you to just say, "thanks for helping out!" [/soapbox]

Yeah, I figured out it was a joke immediately, though it took some explaining to get the rest of the people at pit admin to understand. Pranks are fun in moderation, but they can be quite annoying on Day 3 when we're all tired.
