One of the Serious Sam games had a special enemy that only occured if you pirated the game. A super-fast, immortal enemy that pursues you throughout the entire game.

So when people post a bug-report on the developer forums, they basically troll themselves.

The best insanity-effect was the one that showed silhouettes of bugs crawling on your TV. I was playing in the dark, so of course I jumped to the conclusion that my entire room was covered in bugs.

Molyneux tricking thousands into clicking on a cube for days on end with a promise of a 'lifechanging reward' to the point of people writing scripts for it and going nuts with the thing only to reveal that the reward is a small version of himself, talking. Also the guy who won didn't give a poo poo about it or gaming in general and complained that he had to play some stupid beta at the devs' studio. Molyneux is a genius.

The thing about Molyneux is that he believes what he's saying, as he's saying it. Even if it's some completely pie in the sky idea, like the villagers in Black & White inventing soccer on their own or whatever.

So he's kind of mostly trolling himself, or at least trolling his professional reputation.

The reward for the cube thing was IIRC that you got to be God of Gods in his newest distaster of a game, Godus. Only they haven't implemented any kind of multiplayer. And they've run out of money so they probably never will.

If you can troll without intention to troll then yes, he might be one of the greatest trolls there ever was.
