Guangzhou and rain?

#ed_op#div#ed_cl#I just saw the projected path of hurricane/typhoon Mangkhut who is expect to land at the Phillipines on saturday. Guangzhou is within the probability cone for a few days later and it is an outdoor event.#ed_op#/div#ed_cl##ed_op#div#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#/div#ed_cl##ed_op#div#ed_cl#I see the potential of some huge delays and chaotic order of play for that event.#ed_op#/div#ed_cl##ed_op#div#ed_cl#(and in case of a full hit even a cancellation? - in that case; is it worth playing the PGame?)#ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#br#ed_cl##ed_op#/div#ed_cl#

I was thinking... what on earth is the "Tachikawa" event...

Then I realised that they are works going on at the normal Tokyo-location... so they moved the Toray Pan Pacific temporarily to somewhere else.

I will place the winner of this Game in the Tokyo- Hall of Fame... Not going to make a new event for a single edition....

OK, Started the event anyway... got to give X.Wang, Y.Wang and Q.Wang their 15 min of glory... a shame that M.Wang failed in qualies

(The lack of variation in last names in China always keeps me wondered; must be an administrative nightmare)

All plains to guangzhou suspended due to hurricane; that province gets the full hit...
