No AE game going for me at the moment since my game with Mike Solli was put on hold last summer.

I was wondering what happened to him and his AAR.

The Japanese government kidnapped him and made him figure out their economy so they can get it going again...

You'll be well cushioned against the crash.

I've been working from home (mandatory) since Tuesday. So with less travelling time to work, and now the closure of many retail units and eateries, I have a little more time to get my Naval War thread back underway. Please see attached link for anyone interested in the naval war generally:

What am I doing during quarantine...


Being pissed off.
Working remotely.
Trying to find creative ways to go back to Liberia from Prague.
Getting drunk. Very drunk.
Having sex with my girlfriend.
Playing a lot of chess with my girlfriend.
Playing MANY turns in WITPAE.
Reading "heavy" classic books and/or re-reading them.
Cursing the whole world for the impossibility of finding the e-pub of the book I want to read.
Looking for a new job with literally 0% of probability of success.


Sometimes, several of these things at the same time.

Status: offline 		Here in France we have a national lockdown - schools, universities and all nonessential public places are closed, people are supposed to stay home unless they have a job they cannot perform from home, must go shopping for food, or visit a doctor.

Of course, the French are not noted for their discipline and obedience towards their government, so now there are heavy fines for recidivists and probably genuine curfews on the horizon.

I'm doing home office from 9am to 6pm - the SLAs don't care about the outbreak.

But I gain three hours per day NOT spend in transportation to/from the company office, so that is something.

So in the spare time, I put the finishing touches in Bottlenecks V1.3.
