Could this be akin to the VERY old wierdness bug, where after a lag spike, skulks were mini marines, fades were eggs, everything was in slowmo, doors opened and closed as if by magic, the server was still full, yet noone was connected to eachothers clients?
(i remember the first time this was posted, the guy didnt know if it was real or he was dreaming

)
Always used to happen on bast too for some reason :o
