This thread has no real point, but I realised something about the whole Villager skin thing and wanted to say it somewhere \o/ I'm thinking its not just an April fools joke. They're switching to player UUID's for the name changing, meaning skins will probably need to update to use that system (yes, you may remember a while back they said they updated to use the new 1.8 skin format, meaning you couldn't change your skin during the switch to the new format. Also, I cant remember, they may have switched to using player UUID's then, or maybe they need to do it again?) so I'm saying this Villager thing may just be their way of covering up the switch to use UUID's \o/
