Hello, I am a long time customer of Rapture, as I have been gaming for a large part of my life and have taken part in various competitions organised by RG, which, I might add, were all impeccably organised and I have always admired the direction that RG has brought the gaming scene of singapore to, and I have to say you all were always the spearhead of making cybersports where it is in SG now.
However, RG recently organised a VBS2 competion for army peeps, where an incident happened which may, I fear, have irrepairably damaged my image of RG.
During a match with the units 21SA playing against 39SCE, I was using my own Razor Diamondback mouse, instead of the default one provided at Gamehaven. I had permission from my lieutenant, who had in turn gotten permission from a higher authority to do this. During the games we had several incidences of disconnections and/or server crashes. I was later made to understand, in a very impolite manner, that the usage of my mouse was what had caused these disconnections, and was threatened with disqualification should I ever repeat what I thought I had gotten permission for. Not wanting to cause any trouble, I accepted the marshal's point of view on the matter, although I must admit Im quite confused as to how my mouse could have caused the crashes.
I have since brought the matter up with my officer, and it has been resolved amiably, ending with me simply having to accept that I can no longer use my mouse. This is understandable, since rules are rules, but the reason why I write this is not to pursue the matter but to prevent further reoccurrences of such situations where the customer may feel a irrevocable loss of respect for such a great organisation.
I thank you for your time.
Ben ;p
In case you were wondering, when he saw me removing my mouse, he said," NO WONDER LA!" with referrence to the disconnections. This was followed by," If you ever use your mouse again, Im going to dee que you."
Wow, see the marshal is so cool. He cant even say "disqualify". Hes gotta say "DEE QUE". Lets tango, bitch.

Army Open House
This past week was like a dream. I took leave, off, leave, off and I was almost not in camp the entire week.
Now I come back and find out Im doing the static displays for my Primus in the Army Open House. So please tell your friends to tell their friends to tell their friends NOT TO COME so that I can have an easier time. Tell them theres a ugly jackoff whos doing the displays (which there is, and no fuck off Im not referring to myself) to scare them all away.
;)

J.P Has A Car!
JP isnt Japanese Porn, its Jasmine Phang! And yes shes got a car (even if it belongs to her father)!
She was sweet enough to offer to drive us all to fuckn pasir ris for tyrones bday, but what really struck me was how she replied when we were driving along the highway, and ch was goading her along the path to speeding.
Of course, Im partial to a bit of cheap thrills now and then, but what she said in reply is something I really liked. She said "I never speed when Im driving with friends one."
If there was a Best Statement Of Responsibility Of The Month Award, this would be it.

MENSA Is Full Of Shit
Can you believe you have to PAY to enter mensa? No its not enough I owned their simple sample test (which I think, if you cant get full marks you shouldnt even bother trying), I have to GO DOWN PHYSICALLY to do their test.
So essentially, you pay around 50 bucks for a years membership to do.... what? Go volunteer to do sai-kang, play chess with fellow nerds and bullshit like that? That isnt even worth like $10 to join.
Come on you should be begging me to join! LOL
Nice ego-stroking post ;p

8.22
All it shows is that singaporeans are mostly like me. I dont give a shit about singapore. Its just a piece of land thats really nice to live on, but Im not going to die for it. No-ones gonna stand up like a retard for the pledge, puh-leese.
No More Irritating BG Noises
Ive got my first pair of noise reduction earphones! Im glad I now have an even better excuse not to hear people since (especially on public transport) they can get especially annoying. Unfortunately I wouldnt be able to hear if someone was trying to save me from getting run over by a bus, either.

I Wanna Demote
Because being a man is much easier then being a spec.
Because I am gun IC and Im in charge of 18 x 5 million $ worth of artillery pieces and theres no one to do it with me. And everyday theres people calling me to ask me about where the gun keys are, which gun belongs to which battery and all that fuck shit.
Because when I do guard duty I only have to do 12 hour shifts instead of 24 hour shifts, and I get to sleep 8 out of that 12 hours.
Because I dont have to do Company Orderly Sargeant duties.
Because I dont have to use my brain, I only have to do what Im told, and if anything cocks up, I just point at my sargeant and say ,"Not my fault, he ask me do one."
Because I had misguided perception of commanders when I was a recruit.
Because Im just Really Not Happy.
