is the trophy saying "you're winner" a reference to this game, which also has a trophy with "you're winner" as a reward?

Yes! Indeed it is! Glad someone saw that lol
For your reward, have a trophy that says "You're Winner"
Eyy.. i just typed a loada garrbagge
Aye this page is some hilarious shit. Just thinking about someone going through the level list and finding this page by mistake instead of the one they were looking for is already really funny.
Even so, now talking in a more serious manner, the page itself solidly holds by itself. Despite the main joke being the confusion with the og poolrooms, these halls filled with rooms that contain pool tables have some kind of charm to it. The writing isn't bad by any means, and I like the vibe it has going on.
All in all, it's a nice, experimental page with an interesting premise and a good execution which also managed to get some giggles out of me. +1.
What happened to the original Level 370?
Cast off thy veil of ignorance and arrogance, for I shall not waste eloquence on deaf ears or closed minds. Go forth, and trouble me no more with thy insipid company.
the old level 37 (the jungle) got deleted, so egglord, the author of the poolrooms, moved the poolrooms page to Level 37. greggita mahayfaio/boringtalking moved their page to this slot.

Why did the original level 37 - The Jungle get deleted off the wikidot?

I really liked where you took this. It's a joke, but it made me smile. I'm always a big fan of experimental pages, and yours was no exception!
I loved this. Even if the level on itself was kinda boring the story compensated it
When I saw "The Pool Rooms", I already expected this level to capitalize on the resemblance to its more successful precursor; in part, it reminds me of the SCP titled "Siren Head" (a ship mast in the shape of a mythological siren). However, I was left disappointed when the meat of the level turned out to be fairly generic. It has trouble holding up next to the actual Level 37 on the site, which is unfortunate because the name invites itself to comparison.
The twist itself doesn't work for me, because the audience is already let in on the fact that Adalyn is in The Pool Rooms, while James isn't. The audience already knows that The Pool Rooms is an obvious homage to The Poolrooms, while James doesn't. So the entire time he travels, there's no suspense. Both sides of the photo exchange between the two at the end failed to shock because they're exactly where the reader already knows them to be.
Overall, it comes off as a page that only exists for its title, with the contents being an afterthought.
