That's not how possible world semantics works. And it's trivially easy to reformulate the same argument without the possible world semantics, so you're doubly wrong besides being ninja'd.
Asked and answered.
I am not sure I follow. possible world semantics..?? Maybe there are correct formulations of your argument, I just think the one you presented is plainly false. In one sentence you say that there exists a world where nothing exists i.e. there exists a possible world which doesn't exist. That's impossible by definition.
Anyway, I am not a proponent of ontological arguments. Just a tiny remark.

Fake Messiah dismissed all variants (including Godel's, then) because he thinks they contain fallacies.. so no, not everyone thinks Godel's logic is sound.
