Whats your prediction for Tuesday's announcement?

[Aphrodisiak]

The Reactor 2 is back online and the 1 is stabilize so imo Wednesday they restart the servers

[Mattei]

Yeah servers should go back up. They extended it like 3 days already so if they planned on having them down much longer than that it would have been a longer extension to start with. Lets hope Im right anyway.

[Enrei]

As far as I know, the reactors/power units are still being fixed, but I don't think Tokyo is still having scheduled blackouts, so the servers might go back up.

[Raikki]

I think the servers will be coming up by the end of this work week. What's everyone planning to do when they get back on? I'm going to get back to working on THM (got 36 about an hour before it went down); it'll be nice to have the fatigue reset at least.

[Vackashken]

Get lancer to 50 I suppose.

[MonsieurVerde]

The groundhog will see his shadow and it will be another week of Nuclear Winter, probably. So I wouldn't hold your breath.

Um yeah. It doesn't sound good guys. I just heard on the radio that one of the conainment units started smoking and they increased the evacuation area. They'll increase the downtine in the announcement tomorrow.

[Enrei]

Sadly, that appears to be true.
I hope the smoke has no ill effects on the Japanese environment, but the smoke is only being emitted from the already defunct reactors(2 and 3), so it wont have much effect on the blackouts.

While it's really terrible news, I don't think this really impacts the downtime situation. These reactors have been considered out of play since they started pumping in sea water (which trashes them beyond the point of financially-viable repair).

Edit: It sounds like the situation wasn't that serious --

Another team of workers trying to repair a separate reactor was forced to evacuate in the afternoon after gray smoke rose from Reactor No. 3, said Tetsuro Fukuyama, deputy chief cabinet secretary. However, no explosion was heard and the emission ended by 6 p.m., NHK said. In a separate incident, the broadcaster cited the Japanese Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency as saying white smoke was coming from the No. 2 Reactor building. Significantly higher levels of radiation have not been detected around the two reactors, Mr. Fukuyama said.

[Mattei]

Yeah I dont believe this will have an impact on the server situation. When they come back I will be getting Archer to 50 since its only like 30k til 49. Then its on to Tham!
