Spring has sprung, and things have been off to quite the start! Earlier this year, the Imguraffe went missing. As it turns out, a traveling circus picked them up. After being pickpocketed by someone on the street, they found themselves lost with no wallet or way back home to Imgur.
Luckily for the Imguraffe, The Ringleader had lost the pole to prop up the tent, and their long neck was just what they needed to keep the show on the road. All that time observing the excitement and imagination of a carnival has rubbed off on our great mascot, and it looks like the carnival is in town!
The Imguraffe saw plenty of programs and itineraries for various road shows on their journey. Some were interactive with prompts for the audience, and others even had prizes. From the looks of it, we'll be doing both! Imgurians will have an opportunity to unlock some features by using Imgur.
Various actions come with associated point totals. Rack up enough points, and you'll earn a reward for leveling up. As you inch closer to unlocking each award, boxes will drop down from the top of the screen with a message to cheer you on. There are many ways to pile on those points, but we won't spoil them all. Where's the fun in that?!
In addition to the tantalizing unlocks, the Imguraffe has made some secret and exciting changes to the Imgur experience. Share a post, start a conversation, or send a few upvotes to see what happens! Think you can call out all of the changes?
All posts tagged with #ticket will receive the exclusive Funhouse trophy for taking the first step to uncover everything hidden. (You've got to come inside to investigate, after all.)
We mentioned a trophy before, but it wouldn't be a Funhouse without a few more mysteries. There are four (count em), FOUR trophies to earn under this tent. Will you complete the hidden tasks to unlock the other three? As a little incentive, we've got something special for everyone who earns them all.
Go forth and have fun unraveling the secrets in store for you!

This definitely seems foolish… April foolish if you will.

Gotta love Imgur’s yearly April Fool’s Day shenanigans.

So, does anyone know how to get the secret trophies yet?
adrianontherocks
It’s possible you just have to keep up voting and commenting and get more April fools points? I haven’t started a chat with anyone yet, perhaps I should at some point
Calicious
Hmm. Testing
Brina27
No clue. I'm already at 2,500+ points and I've only unlocked the first one using #ticket

Figured out how to get the Ferris Wheel trophy : /gallery/6PlRXhI
Doomicorn
As the person responsible for setting the parameters for the trophies... you still got me. Well done.
capngoat
Are there any hints we could get to figure out how to get the other 3 trophies? Or is that itself an April Fool's joke and there really is just 1 trophy?
Doomicorn
The other 3 trophies are real. People will start earning them soon. They are triggered on a delay. That's all I'll give you.
DumpingSh1tandBeingKind2
Did anyone earn them? Can you tell us now what was needed for them? I'm really intrigued!!!
Easykehl
Not my screenshot (I only earned 2):
Doomicorn
Thousands of people earned them. All will be revealed soon. They will be awarded in waves. We didn't want to make them hard to get, just mysterious.

Or is the app just broken and not allowing downvotes? Who knows? The app is always broken so it's hard to tell if the obnoxious purple color was intentional or not.
