We felt three ripples down here in Dunedin. Apparently it was weaker than the quake last year, but closer to the surface, hence more concentrated.

Photos now show the spire has collapsed on the famous cathedral. Once a resonance is setup by the earthquake rumbling, not many structures with a simliar resonance can survive.

Condolences to all affected.

yep...this one was a lesser magnitude but way more violent...lots of buildings trashed this time round but very good to see how emergency services, Defence (there was a big ex about to kick off down there) and government have pulled it all together in less than 12 hours...PM and mayor are doing really well on the leadership front...

Just to let you know that we are all thinking about you guys caught up in this tragic event - as if you hadn't had enough bad luck of late, you now have all this to cope with. Good luck and take care. Regards. Pete.

I hope and pray that they come through ok...

I have several friends that I used to play WoW with that live in New Zealand, and I know a few folks that were with a computer support comany down there.

Great looking build by the way, even if it is virtual.

Perhaps you can do a few more builds, and just rotate them in and out of the china cabinet.
