Ubercharged.net is based in Australia (if I’m not mistaken), so it is April 1st there, as you can note by the local time of the post. It got me as an American reader, since my April 1st shields were not raised yet.

@Sobchak – there is this amazing thing that occurred – it’s called NOT EVERYONE LIVES IN AMERICA.
It gives rise to wonders such as different time zones.

We had this discussion last year http://www.ubercharged.net/2008/03/31/change-of-direction-tf2-out-halo-3/
At least I haven’t seen any rick rolls yet.

I don’t think UC will close… in my heart. You know why?
“BECAUSE I NEVER GIVE YOU UP!
NEVER GONNA LET YOU DOWN!
NEVER GONNA RUN AROUND AND DESERT YOU!” :3
But seriously, Ubercharged is closing down. There is a 10 page thread about it in the forums…
Paper Shadow responded on 01 Apr 2009 at 10:09 am #
Also, this was caused by the number of Sandman arguements…

This is bull…. Just like FileFront allegedly shutting down.
ExAstris responded on 01 Apr 2009 at 11:28 am #
Not the greatest April Fools’ prank ever… it wasn’t even borderline convincing. If they’d replaced the homepage, done the same to boomercharged and the other sites, and made it look official then maybe.

There is a difference between a web host and a web domain.

Meh, still March 31 here. Guess that made me doubt the very moment I read the header.
Still, tomorrow I ain’t gonna touch da internet with a 10-foot pole. If I get back online the day after tomorrow and ubercharged.net directs me to a 404 page, THEN I’ll worry.
