    @Max Hope you and your family are well over there.

    The majority of population in most countries would be either forced to stay home or voluntarily staying home a lot more often for their own sake, so it is expected a lot more occasional gamers would turn to their tablets and mobiles for game downloads.

    We could bulk-binge some favourite TV shows and/or movies, dig out the long dusted board games and probably try to learn how to cook. But then a few days past by and it is more than understandable that we would be glad to have some more alternatives.

    Yeah we are fine, we are on lockdown until March 29th, there is seventy cases in Ireland and one death, not as many as other places but they put us on lockdown really early, maybe not as severe as there are no gatherings over 100 indoors and none over 5000 outdoors, all schools, colleges and other things and closed, others are choosing to stay home.

    Everything is fine except everyone raiding the shops lol.



    This photo was taken by someone today in a Tesco’s.

    Anyway, I will have way more time to support and play the game and watch stuff.

    Hope everybody is safe and well.

    Yes, Ireland is probably locking down early to try avoiding a repeat of Wuhan, and lately Italy and Iran. Wuhan is at least some 20 times worse than reported in mainstream media (everyone there was locked up for nearly 8 weeks there, and all food were price-inflated by multiples if available), so it is best to contain and delay as early as possible.

    Tesco shelf over there just reflects the reality that initial containment could be at least a month or 2 at a minimum, so everyone just wants to grab a few months’ worth of resources when money itself isn’t that big an issue. Here here in Birmingham when there may be only a handful of cases, I also saw several people stockpiling noodles, rice and even crisps (a gentleman took 10+ of large pack crisps, a lady took the whole trays of noodles and cup noodles with none left - and there are no offers) already in Sainsbury and Tesco too when I was only there for a few minutes picking up some groceries. Toilet paper and handwash were out of stock since early in the week. (I already did the stockpiling last week at the time of Lombardy area being cordoned off)

    Same here that I could also be checking on matches more often.
