I'm in Europe for this contest as I wanted to spend some time abroad, (and it's been great being stuck indoors for weeks due to a global pandemic), and our clocks move forward tonight at 9pm Eastern.

So effectively the next matches will only be 23 hours long for most of Europe, right?
The US already went through daylight savings, so the start time wlll likely be 1AM (GMT) once clocks move forward, one hour later.

This could potentially be "Dark Side of the RIng" territory if it continues to get worse or one of the wrestlers die from WM36 going forward.

They should aim to tape all of the already confirmed matches over the weekend and early next week. If they hold it off until much closer to Mania weekend, they risk certain people possibly getting infected and therefore either have to change up matches involving those infected or postponing because either too many have become infected to continue or the goverment forces them to shut down. Hopefully that doesn't happen and everyone stays healthy.

In other news, apparently (according to Tokyo Sports) Japan is already looking to start up some sports again in the coming weeks, including wrestling. NJPW are having a meeting within a few days to determine whether Sakura Genesis is happening. If it does, we'll probably get Naito/Hiromu there. Other promotions are also reportedly resuming their shows such as AJPW, NOAH and Stardom.

I've been hearing that people within my local supermarkets, grocery stores and wholesalers have started to become unneccesarily aggressive and hostile towards staff, particularly in regards to trying to buy more than 1 of specific products today. I didn't notice anything of that sort in the stores I went to, I expect that things are going to be much worse in the following week now that schools close today over here, and will not be surprised if the goverment starts sending out the military to keep people at bay.

Thankfully, me and my family should have enough food for the next 2-3 weeks.

Also for the people that say this is really bad, it is, BUT around 100 years ago around 1/3 of the population got infected and we had at least 30 million dead but we went on. As always had and we will always be. Duh.
There was also a world war going on when it started, and the war itself had an effect on the spread rate.

And I hope that it doesn't even come close, but a lot of it will depend on the next few months, how everyone reacts to it over time, and what decisions goverments are making now and throughout the spring. If things go wrong somewhere or an issue arises for whatever reason, it could spiral further out of control.

Is anyone else getting this message when they check certain topic pages and noticing either no posts are showing on that page or only posts up to a certain number? For example, there's a weakest game in the bracket poll/topic created by MoogleKupo that when I click on it, none of the posts (or the poll itself) show up on the first page. Seen this happen in other topics, too.

Is this a bug/something to do with the ignore feature? I don't have MoggleKupo on ignore, but I would not be surprised if one or two people on my ignore list (and only a few users on there are active) responded in these topics and caused a weird glitch that makes GameFAQs think I have everyone else on ignore too and making their posts disappear as well.

EDIT: Just went back to those topics to see if there're still acting up. not having any problems there, now.

Here's the thing: if this isn't done now, we're going to be forced to do it in a few weeks anyway, but the pandemic will be considerably worse. The world continuing to go on as normal forever is not an option we have.
Wasn't my intention with that message to imply that businesses should keep going as long as possible. I meant that in a general sense, not "We can't do this now, think of everyone's jobs if we cancel/restirct things, let's not overexaggerate!"

For the record, I approve of and support any restrictions/cancellations regarding any mass meetings (parades/events/conventions/etc) at this point in time within the next 2 months in any infected country, to the point where I'm willing to do so by example. Case in point, that festival I was thinking of going to 3 weeks from now I've opted not to go to because of the outbreak (among other reasons).

If there was an outbreak from one of the upcoming WWE shows leading up to Wrestlemania, resulting in several talent on the card being unable to compete (like say Orton, Rollins and Bayley), would WWE cancel the show or would those guys "tough it out"?

They've already released the bracket, though, which makes it hard, at least in kayfabe, to justify which 16 you pick. Especially if they had booked something like a Taichi > Tana upset, do you put Taichi in the 16 because that's what you had booked or do you throw that out because people expect Tana in the tournament? Not an insurmountable problem, of course, and I agree that it would be way easier logistically.
There's a lot people that can easily and justifiably be removed to make it plausible, not to mention they could still rearrange parts of the bracket while keeping certain round 1 matches. It would disappoint some, but it's obvious that nearly half of those scheduled are clearly not making the semi or even the quarter finals and if they won the whole thing, the crowds wouldn't buy it. The Young Lions can easily be removed, foreigners that don't reside in Japan like Cabana and Cobb can be written out due to "travel" issues. The New Japan dads aren't winning more than one match anyway, and the lowcard guys like Tanga Loa, Yoshi-Hashi and Toa Henre don't need to be there. You can probably just have the following 16 remain and no one will complain.

Chances are if they go through with the New Japan Cup at this point, it'll be cut down to a 16-man tournament instead of 32.

With my Crash Bandicoot mask nominations, please disregard the Crash of the Titans redesigns. Those things are abominations.
Also a Crash fan, can confirm those redesigns are garbage. The one I nominated is inspired by those redesigns, but was executed better.
