Halloween prank

Ok so this year we were lacking good ideas for Halloween, which is why the joke sucked again, like last year. However if you missed it here is what happened from midnight until now.
-First of all, the anti-spambot filter was completly disabled. Surpringsly, only 4 or 5 bots posted though, which isn't a lot considering at least 40 register here every day.
-Secondly, in Pokémon Purple, Metroid Pi II and Ultima V main progress topics I embedded crappy music inside a post so anyone who viewed the topic page containing the hijacked post they would hear it. If you missed it you can hear the crappy tune
here.
It's from a 3-4 years old children cartoon from 1990 in french.
-Third of all the forum skin was replaced with an Halo skin.
-And the final prank was Metroid III: Azimus. Yes it was fake, sorry!
. In fact you could have noticed it if you clicked the download link. It redirected to a page with an ugly face where a scream of the death could be heard. If you ever played
the Scary Maze
it should give you an idea. DON'T WORRY! Metroid II is still planned for release!
The fake Metroid III project topic is still avaliable here:
http://omnimaga.org/index.php?showtopic=1858
Sorry for not having got better jokes this year, but I hope you enjoyed anyway
.
I will be checking through new accounts to see if new members didn't signed up and approve them if they signed up since during the prank new accounts didn't validated by default for some reasons.

There were some porno bots that got through.
I figured you didn't want an X rated site so I moved the post into the Bots topic.
