I went right back to the first comment on page 302............ One page at a time
And am slightly befuzzled as the comments say they were only posted 5 days ago.. So does that mean the contest is still on or that 2 people miss out on premium memberships..?
I found 5 winners, wasn't sure if I'm allowed to post their names and comments or not, so I'll leave them anonymous unless told otherwise by a deviant official ^_^

I am more interested in what they decided were the most creative comments and what they say... what can I say, I like creativity! I wonder why all the secrecy, someone should just post links to all the winning comments. Might as well be you since you went throught the trouble to find them all.

I suppose I could post the winning comments without saying who posted them

One lucky member will be given a *Til Hell Freezes Over Membership* each day for the seven days prior to the April 7th date; On April 7th, deviantArt will donate the exact amount of money "spent" on those 7 people to a worthy cause, such as the World Wildlife Foundation (so we can enjoy more llamas) or the Lupus Foundation of America.

On the dawn of April 7th, 2014, a series of delightful and terrifying events will take place in a wonderfully brutally insane 24-hour celebration of the visual arts.
deviantART Phase 1:
Framed pictures of every deviation ever submitted will rain down from the sky, reminding us all of deviantART's variety.
deviantART Phase 2:
Genetically engineered llamas will roam the streets delivering cake and points.
deviantART Phase 3:
The world's mountains become our blank canvas as we continue to express ourselves and leave our mark for future generations to gaze in awe upon.
deviantART Phase 4:
All of dA's groups will merge and form one Mega-Group, thus further bringing the community together and/or creating utter chaos within the masses.
deviantART Phase 5:
The ultimate sparring of kings, ninjas, superheroes, wizards and spartans will rock the earth and trigger the next Ice Age (the 5th one 
deviantART Phase 6:
Feasts, fireworks, art viewing parties and celebrations of all sorts throughout all the land, beginners and professionals alike partaking in the ultimate festival and their last few hours of joy. dA's least-recognized artists will be the guests of honor.
deviantART Phase 7:
Every single deviant will be pitted against each other in a duel-to-the-death until there is but one left standing, and the winner is awarded 1 billion points and the secret-but-coveted Diamond Encrusted Platinum Overlord Llama Badge.
deviantART Phase 8 (optional):
HELL WILL FREEZE OVER.
BTW, I love how deviantART is the kind of community where llamas are given as a sign of respect.

As the name "codenamepanther$" suggests, DA is actually a group of spies. And on April 7th, they're going to reveal the true reason DA was created for. To find out who the most creative people on earth are, and subject them to experimentation that will give them reality warping powers. Of course, such powers are not an easy burden. Only the most creative of people could handle such an overwhelming power. It is our creativity that DA relies on. Even this challenge of "make the most creative guess" is just another way to try and find the most creative of us.
either that, or a new widget will be announced.
But it's more then likely the first one.
And there you have it the winning comments ^_^
At least I'm pretty sure these are the winning comments as each of the deviants who posted them were given "til' hell freezes over premium memberships" and I didn't see any other comment entries by them in my long search

As im surfing deviantArt, something i don't do everyday, i notice a small *bleep* on my headphones. Luckily i have listened the current playin song a billion times, so i notice this sof faint noise, and i look up at my ad-blocker, which - lucky for me - was turned off.
So i open the popup and see a giant *Meet the Squids of DeviantArt* banner, i was just sitting there - heart pumping - was shocked that there would such an amazing event to visit, and the best part was, it was online.
I was specially invited
As i went there, they were giving virtual - everything (Massages, food-eating-competitions, etc..)
I only won one thing that entire day - a free Llama badge (I was through the roof, with happiness)
Then there was a prize giving, for everyone, a free one-time vsit to a demo-website, with it's own sketching and daily giveaways.

The end of the llamas reign will occur. The alpacas will have risen up and taken over the thrown announcing that with there rise into power they will be releasing an art software that will rival that of adobe, making it easier and more affordable for the sites supporters to create digital art and edit there images. They will bring with them the promise of softer blankets and sweaters to those that are loyal and support them in there reign of power on DA.
Its the dawning of the Alpaca! Prepare yourselves!

Here's my guess. As the clock strikes twelve in the early hours of 7th April, I'll probably up and surfing deviantart, of course. Then, suddenly a huge blackout occurs across the entire globe. Everything will be quiet for a few seconds until only the computers of the world dimly switch on with the heads of :jark: and 
"Let's get this party started!" Then, the computers will start to rumble and shake and hiss with some kind of static electricity and start facing skywards and suddenly blast this really bright humming beam straight through the roofs of every house. Party danger levels go off the top and the SWAT team of llamas will burst through the front doors of houses, aiming their huge bazookas at every deviantart user's face shooting out Grucho glasses and Troll face masks onto out faces. Then, at the HQ, a huge fireworks display will occur and when it just explodes high in the sky, April Fools stuffs like snakes in a can and holes in a cup will come raining down into everyone's clutches. While that happens, jark and matteo will come walking out of the HQ, down the front steps with thick red capes, sceptres and crowns as the Kings of Pranks and we'll all have to have a Prank-Off like in one episode of Big Time Rush. About the beams of light in the sky, all of it are actually the artwork shot up into the stratosphere like lots of tiny projectors on one huge screen. From outer space, an astronaut will see that artwork laser beam showcasing thing as some kind of forcefield around the planet, carefully arranged according to colour to bare the Deviantart Logo. Back on earth, everybody's having a blast when Fella will appear in the sky like Megamind did, and say,
"Ok, an announcement for everyone. Today isn't actually 7th April. We've been controlling the rotation of the earth so it spins slower than usual. April Fools!!"
Then, talking into a walkie-talkie " Crank it up a notch, Mike!"
And some staff answers form this huge disco ball right where the core of the earth is supposed to be and pulls some lever that makes the whole planet rotate backwards, making time move backwards while the surface of the earth turns into a disco dance floor. we'll all partay till the end of the day.

Venus will be closest to Mercury on April 7 2014. This astronomical event will then trigger an anomaly. Leonardo Da Vinci, one of the greatest Painter of all time will be resurrected for 24 hours and will take over DA, to show his magnificent work and finally reveal to us to truth behind most of his paintings (such as the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper), the illuminati and the possible revelation that his decendant/s is indeed, the genius who created DeviantArt, to continue his love for art, inspire and make connections with artists.

April 7th: The sun rises on a new day over the Indian Ocean as the last little bit of precious time expires to locate what seems like a grain of sand lost at sea before the batteries on the locator beacon run out. The story that has captivated humankind... a mystery that may never be solved... and a world that had just begun to feel small now feels infinitely immense again. For deviantART this will be a day of remembrance, a day of art, a day of words, and a day of quiet reflection, all honoring the 237 lost souls of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370.
With prayers and sincere condolences...

At the start of the day,(in the wee early hours) (at about 9:00AM) DA will have there first DeviantPARADE where there would be floats of awesomeness, "HUGE" custom character balloons, confetti and more, everyone will get to ride on one, and we would ride all over LA so people could see our Devious creations! Then after that, (at about 1:30PM) would be the flying llama race! Everyone would get to participate! After the race, (at about 3:00PM) DA would take everyone to DA HQ to share a Fella cake, share some Fella pies and share some Fella cupcakes! After the snacks (at about 5:30PM) DA will reveal there DeviousEXIBIT of art, and there would be free giveaways and all of the awesome art anyone has ever put on DeviantART! And Fella would be there to give us all a DeviousTOUR! And after the DeviousTOUR, (at about 8:00PM) DA would reveal there dream machine, you could bring anything to life with this machine, just simply draw it and write down any details, everyone that came would get a chance to make something! And at the end of the day, (maybe at about 10:00PM) when everyone has made something, we would all go home with our creation, and the DeviousEXIBIT would close with all the floats, balloons, flying llamas, artwork and Fella. Only to open up again another day. That would be awesome!

How about bringing in the Marvel superheros to party on the moon and eat moon pie plus even a chance riding a llama while I get to be a DJ for the guys on the big party? How about that? Lasers, a light show maybe even a little lighting (so long as Thor's hammer doesn't send it down on me), fun games, and have the time of my life.
Sooooo what do you guys and gals think?

As the clock strikes midnight and the date turns to April 7, 2014, all llamas on DeviantART will come alive and whisk us away to the dark side of the moon to their secret dA headquarters. There we will recieve free DeviantART merchandise and pie while conversing with famous deviants from all over the world. After everyone has gotten over the shock of it and settled down, the llamas will proceed to tell us a story. Not just any story, but the story of DeviantART.
'Once upon a time, in a galaxy far, far away, there lived a colony of peaceful space llamas. These llamas were very artistic and creative, and they spent their days making art, literature, and complimenting others. But this peaceful paradise was interrupted when the troll army attacked. The troll army, consisting of trolls, flamers, and haters, were jaelous of the llamas and their incredible artistic ability and creativity. The llamas tried to explain that everyone has artistic ability dormant inside of them, and that it only took a little practice for this natural abilty to bloom, but the troll army would not heed them. The llamas, knowing that they could not win a battle against the army, fled to our solar system and made their way to earth. Using technological expertise, creativity, and a little bit of llama magic, they created a community where artists, writers, cosplayers, photographers, ninjas, sculptors, and art appreciators could live and converse in harmony. After doing so, they forever immortalized themselves as small, pixelated animals on this website, which they called DeviantART. When the troll army finally caught up with the llamas, they found that they were up against not only the llamas, but thousands, even millions of deviants from around the world. Failing to be deterred, they began their attack on DeviantART. The never ending battle between trolls and DeviantARTists has not been won, even to this day.'

Last theory from me
On April 7th Deviant art is going to reveal that it's teamed up with Google to create Google Deviants!
As with Google Maps, Google translate and so on, there will now be a Google Deviant app!
So that when you click on it and type something into search it will only come up with pictures, stories and poems done my members on Deviant Art.
Now members' art will get even more publicity and notice as more and more of the public looks for art through this app!

On the 7th of April Deviant art is going to reveal it's massive undertaking (which was started last year sometime)...
It started with them creating a smoke free kit (to help people quit smoking)... Once the kit was created (by smart scientists of course) DA started giving them out; as though they were a normal kit instead of one created by an art corporation; then the real operation began!
DA started secretly buying up tobacco and cigarette companies one by one, till they were all under DA's control and while they were acquiring these companies they started to cut down on how much tobacco went into each cigarette, cigar, etc. by replacing it with a safe none addictive herb.. It started off at 5% replacement, then 10% and so on and so forth...
In their factories they slowly and quietly stopped the growing of tobacco plants, till none were being grown anywhere.
It took them a while but now they've gotten the cigarettes (etc.) down to 0% tobacco...
They have done the near impossible... They have weaned everyone off of tobacco without them even knowing it...
This is what they will reveal tomorrow!
And whether we love it or not, we were definitely all a part of it!
