Has it been OK for everyone else?Sorry, Stuart. I took this to be an April Fools' prank, as I thought you were on your iPhone. I did think for one aweful moment that the lack of response was due to everyone being sat at home, scratching their heads as to why smoke was billowing out of their PCs! Could have been the ultimate April Fool! Quote

Rob Posted April 2, 2013 Posted April 2, 2013 I've just taken it to be an April fool's joke as the link goes to the metro news site with no obvious sign of anything coin related. Quote

Misleading us poor coinies with an article about other such tricks. Yeah, but the April Fool's joke was my original post, leading to a site that gave the game away. It wasn't part of the joke to freeze up people's computers - sorry about that. Quote
