Yeah, it's April Fools Day, the day people think they're smart because they play pranks on everyone else.
I hate April Fools Day so much.

That said, congrats Tig for the one you made up this time, kinda liked it :P

Wow! :D I got scared first when visited the websites :D

Amazing what can be done with HTML5 and JavaScript.

Haha, cool, thanks guys. Due to timezones however, the Aprils Fools joke will be live for a few more hours, well past mid-day in a lot of places around the world.

After that, if you missed the joke, you will be able to check it out here: lvlworld.com/2013-04-01.php

Ohhh, that was the prank haha. I didn't even know what it was, I thought that the site was down for some unique kind of maintenance :P Out of curiosity, what happens if you press "yes"? (don't want to press it myself lol)

It is perfectly safe to hit either option, but yes, they do do different things.

While I was watching the joke, I kept fearing it might be a screamer.
Happy April Fools!

I agree, UT is such a great game.
Now I have the urge to go back and play it, thanks Tig! :D

I played it while programming a bot for it :D :D I was at Carl's University as visitor and this was prepared to bring more light to programming AI :) So I played a FPS game for free without need to download anything :D

This made me laugh! Good one.
For big CTF team play without human, I personally enjoy a lot the venerable UT, but I prefer Q3 for pure 1-1 and for everything else too. :)
I did bought the UT official CD at day launch just because Q3 disk was not available back then in early December 1999 in Belgium, and I was so disappointed in the Bruxelles FNAC shop (big european shop brand) that I decided to try that brand new UT while waiting one more week for the Q3 official disk.
All in all I'm happy for that small Q3 delay, 'cause both are great, different for sure, but both are top notch arena shooter (I still prefer Q3 ;).

The April 1st joke has gone. If you missed it, you can still see it here: lvlworld.com/2015-04-01.php

It has been really cool to see people talking about UT. That was a nice side-effect and to be honest, unexpected.
