[TheDarkSeed]

I saw it on the news an couldn't believe it.

 

[ChuckBartowski]

California and Oregon are now in warning. shit.

According to twitter, Tite Kubo is ok. He just came back home after walking for ~2 hours (no trains or taxis). I think he is in Tokyo.

Edit: oh the irony... http://twitter.com/tite_kubo/status/46052712474873856 "Since the weather today is really nice, I'm definitely going out"

I've just watched the news in CNN. I was shocked.

And our country's near Japan. I feel very sorry to those houses that are washed away by the tsunami wave. I hope my aunt and the others are okay there.

Straight from Google:

"Tsunami Alert for New Zealand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Hawaii, and others. Waves expected over the next few hours, caused by 8.9 earthquake in Japan."

 

[BoxShot]

Oh .... boy.

I may or may not be screwed.

Your from Hawaii?

A local hawaiin geophysicist seemed pretty safe about hawaii. He said there was plenty of time to prepare and noted the tsunami warning after last years chile earthquake ending up being nothing.

Yeah I live in Hawaii. Though idk last year it never happened but who knows it may happen this time.

some game devs reporting their safety and/or showing support

I'd keep checking more twitter accounts but I gotta leave for college. I hope the number of casualities stay as low as possible.

edit: last one, JC Staff was hit http://twitter.com/tomos12/status/46086585342640129 "Swing, swing to the collapse of the desk, drawing room destroyed"

 

[Shockwind]

Shit, it's gonna come to Phillippines, Indonesia and a few other countries. Guys, please be safe!

Uh-oh. I have to be prepared. Thanks for that! I don't want to have an earthquake to occur at our country. We have to pray to those how died because of the earthquake, I mean, the earthquake is so strong, so after that, an tsunami occurs. And the reporter at CNN said that this earthquake is stronger than Haiti last year.

Australia is expected to get it around 15:35 GMT according to CNN.

Rofl, it did happen last year.
It was just over hyped. It was like a 2 ft wave. It barely reached the coast. I was laughing at everyone who got so worried over that.

 

[Sausage Head]

Just heard it on the news when 5 people were confirmed death. Very sad.

 

[Vidboy10]

CNBC, MSNBC, CNN, CTV, CBC, BCC, SKY, ITV, Fox News, are all broadcasting at the same time.

Insane.

A tsunami didn't happen only a small wave did .....

 

[ChuckBartowski]

Well box, let us know what happens in hawaii. im kind of waiting for whatever happens there to decide whether to do something here in california. Either way, im guessing it wont be extreme here.
