I'm not surprised. They are canceling all the gaming conventions, all the colleges are planning to transition to online temporarily if they haven't already, and even the NBA has been canceled. I'm just making it the the mindset to not count on any sort of organized events happening in the next couple months.

Yeah my college is transferring to online for the spring as well. As well as an extra spring break week. Kinda sucks, the classes my school uses needs the computers in the academic buildings. That have expensive 3D programs that not everybody has like Maya, Zbrush, Etc. Some classes are group projects making a game etc. That's impossible online. I understand it all and the decision. Hope and pray things will calm and get back to normal for every body. Wash your hands everybody!

I have had every event that my company was staffing cancel.. I have lost 2 permanent posts.. In the course of 1 day, I have went from a secure job to where I may not even have one when I leave the office tomorrow, and I am a freaking executive. We lost basically a quarter mil in a day. Its not the virus, but im sure feeling sick. Stay safe Puffin, im gonna need the entertainment it seems

The event doesn’t matter, personal health is much more important to keep an eye on so keep safe and keep to the guidelines on health and safety.

It's okay, Puffin. My daughter's bummed because all of the FRC events (and the two Worlds events) have been canceled, killing off this year's competitions. So, anyone need something robotic built and don't mind if it looks a bit wonky because a bunch of teens built it?

I’m in Italy. You now need papers to drive down the streets, and there are police cars driving down the streets with speakers on top blaring messages to stay inside and wash your hands and stuff. Edit: I’m not italian, I just live here.

My husband & I live in Lancaster Co. We were thinking about going to the con & I was looking forward to the chance to meet you. But at this point, I think everyone's heath is more important. It sucks so bad, but I'd rather see everyone healthy at the next con than getting sick at this one. Take care of yourself & you're always welcome in Lancaster!

UPDATE: Unfortunately, Zenkaikon has been cancelled! I was originally going to be out there between 3/20/2020 to 3/22/2020 for the convention, but it's been cancelled due to the Coronavirus risk.
