Due to Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) electric supply shortages caused by the influence of the Great North East Kanto Earthquake and subsequent implementation of rolling blackouts, our experiments for the GenoCon experimental review face significant delays.
The announcement of the results of the experimental review planned for June 2011 is also expected to be delayed one or two month.
Though we must unavoidably cause inconvenience for everyone, we thank you in advance for your understanding.
As there are effects from the rolling blackouts for the 2nd GenoCon Competition plan as well as for the 1st GenoCon schedule, we are currently reviewing the situation again. We will provide notice on this website as soon as we reach a policy decision,
As this has created additional inconvenience, we thank you much for your understanding and cooperation.
