i got huge earthquake in Japan

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-12709598

I'd like to speak my personal experience of this earthquake, because BBC seems doing very well at reporting some facts and news.

I felt a shake in Kyoto, where is far from focus of this earthquake, atleast 500km distance. I was tuning cars in my garage and the radio started reporting about that quake, I felt a bit strange because that one wasn't so big that usually has no need to report, so I kept hearing the DJ. Then he reported. "This is huge, huge earthquake occur at Pacific ocean nearby Miyagi prefecture"

Then, I remembered the older news that was reported 2 months ago, eruption of Mt.Sinmoe at Kagoshima prefecture. eruption obviously reveals that bedrocks and plates are active recently. This means ground have enough power to cause an earthquake. I said, "OH NO"

After I get back I heard about some panic in community of ET from my friend. According to him, he was playing on Japanese public server this afternoon and suddenly half of players got 999 or disconnected. He has never seen that kind of phenomenon, so he's a bit puzzled, but kept playing.
Then he finished and turned on TV, then he have got to know things about earthquake. Ironically, the time when the first massive swing come, is the same time half people leaved from public server. (maybe, those disconnections are caused by blackout.)

I offered a silent prayer for every sadness. Everyone's frightened even in Kyoto with no shake, Twitter's burning, My mother started stock some foods, My clanmate who is living nearby the hypocenter isn't active today at all.


(ADDITIONALLY, I'm quite frightened about some broken NUCULEAR powerplants, News said "Its cooling system has broken" and, the anchor got a paper from staff, then he added " BUT NO, NO REPORT ABOUT DANGER OF LEAKING ANY RADIOACTIVITY MATERIALS". How can I be ignorant of this kind of, maybe, Concealment??)

im glad you are ok!

its not "ironic" that they disconnected at that point you can't really disconnect ironically in this situation unless you are an 'earthquake proof internet salesman' but its understandable because most native english speakers don't even understand the concept somehow
SHADAP

they have earthquake internet proof, they just lagged a bit because of this new slac update and then they just disconnected because it was unplayable:S

this makes way more sense

HOLY DEMONS just decompiled slac

144 if(date==11/03/11){

Parent
wtf ure talking about?
Parent
more like an exception

try{
}
catch{}

what's earthquake function implementation? :D
Parent
not entirely sure i think its got an interface with the large hadron collider using visual basic guis
Parent
VB IS SHIT :D
Parent
Hope Tanaka Sensei is fine, though in my opinnion a simple tsunami couldn't damage him.
"a simple tsunami"

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Parent
Tsunami isn't funny.
Parent
rofl, retarded much? did i ever say so? i was just laughing at your naive comment. as if that tsunami wasnt any big deal. the earthquake itself is not the big deal in japan, the big deal is the tsunami that is causing massive damage to the island. check what that "simple tsunami" is doing to the most affected place.
Parent
man u ever had sex while an earthquake was going on?
:D:D:DDd :ppp
Parent
Charlie Sheen has
Parent
Well written. I hope everything will be ok :I
Hope you will be ok :(
take care! nice to read from someones perspective whos living there and to spice it up, playing ET.
The IAEA reported that all nuclear powerplants at risk have been shut down successfully so hopefully you shouldn't have to worry on that one. What you'll do for power though... might stock up on wood :x
yeah no nuclear related stuff problems at all.
Parent
thx for the info, but I think any organization is not believable. If IAEA or any other organizetion says "emergency, leaked radioactivity detected", asia gets panic. and no panic with no fact is better than a panic. So if I were a informer, I wouldn't inform the truth.
Parent
book a flight and get the fuck out of there, u want to have 3 arms or smth?

on a serious note, i think they'd inform since radioctive stuff is a big deal and not some minor shit which u can hide from the ppl because it might affect your sales or something, but idd there are many cunts in the high ranks like in everywhere.. so u cant trust them entirely
Parent
TRAINS ARE STOPPED, TRAFFICS ARE HOLDUP. GMMM!! WHERE IS MY F WORDED BICYCLE!?

EPIC
Parent
they want to avoid panic at all cost, thats true. play it safe bro!
Parent
There's no real nuclear threat. They went to nuclear alert because it's easier to take safety measures that way. Good call too.

edit: Japan is now issuing evacuation order to residents near the nuclear power plant. But it's almost certain the reactors went into emergency shutdown.
Parent
Hope everyone is ok :(
take care.
BBC reporting that a ship carrying 100 people has been swept away by the wave really shocking. The tsunami supposodly due to hit Hawaii around 13:00 GMT

Hope all the Japenese ET'rs (and everyone else) are safe.
How big the wave will be?
Parent
It's sad but,
Quote he was playing on Japanese public server this afternoon and suddenly half of players got 999 or disconnected. He has never seen that kind of phenomenon

I hope Gaki no Tsukai guys are okay :[
hope everyone is ok :[
