kharille: Rumours, and social media fears. I think I read somewhere they say the materials used to make masks are similar to toilet paper. Its just plain annoying for some people. Situation resolved itself in about 2 weeks.
You mean the sickness on china died out? Cuz if that was the case they'd have dropped the lockdowns and/or similar measures.

So far i've heard the opposite(from sources both verified and anecdotal/unproven)...that some got re-infected in those areas and the lockdowns are being kept in place.

I guess they mean the rumors died out?
Lockdowns are generally still here for the kids/students, while adults are generally allowed to go back to work now (with masks of course). But whether someone returns to work or not depends on the decisions of the individual cities/companies/organizations, I think.

They can go back to work even OUTSIDE the cities they live in(If not then they're still in lockdown in a way)?

Yeah, I think so. You know, China is quite huge (just as the US is), and the situation in different provinces differs a lot. So, while Wuhan city & maybe the whole Hubei province is still in dire situation, many of the other provinces (including the one I live in) are more or less back to their normal states these days, gradually. That being said, from the news I read, governments of different places and companies are still quite cautious about returning people to work. Hope the situation won’t worsen from this.

And stay alert yourselves. The incubation period is said to be possibly long (can be more than 2 weeks; women's seem to be longer than men's), so while the infected reported so far isn't that many (compared to here in China), it still has a chance to burst in short time. Hopefully your government or the scientists have more specific guidelines as to how to react to the current situation there.

1 AM or PM in UTC?

I will be fine to contribute then. I have a question: Since more areas are being let into the giveaway, and some games I see as fun are on sale, can I snag them(along with what I offered earlier) and give them to you for the contest as well?

If so I will get them and give them to you along with what I offered earlier(5 dollar GOG credit to the winner of your choosing).

AM because if it would be PM I would instead have written 13:00 UTC and you can snatch any game you want. I think I will mayby let people contribute to the giveaway during it as long as not 48 hours before the end where put in.

Ok then....also as I said I bought some extra games for the giveaway that were on sale.....would you like them to go along with what I promised earlier for the giveaway?

(Neither are in chinese, but I guess any chinese who know english/etc or people from other lands can enter for them :))

If so I will send them to you asap.
