First Otaku Battalion

Juz a gentle reminder again, in case anyone of us forgotten about it. There’s a Chalet at Aloha Loyang from 23 - 25 Sep. So please keep it free as much as possible. There’s plenty of rooms and beds to go around. Please inform ppl who might be interested to come too (i believe more = merrier/cheaper in this case)

as usual, ill always include informative information so that everyone is well informed.

How to go to this “Aloha Loyang” <-click for more info
Basically, juz take the shuttle bus at the stipulated time to the Chalet.

Ill be booking the bbq catering in 2 wks time. If no one objects or has any suggestion, ill be getting from EZB Catering. Plus misc stuff that they dun provide. Amt and quantity at my own discretion.

Ok… now i need everyone’s help now. Going to a chalet without entertainment is silly. So i hope everyone would chip in and help if u can.

Right now these are the equipments we will need.

Mahjong Paper
Mahjong Set X2
Mahjong Table (no necessary but good to have. Cos the the games table over there are not for mahjong)
Console (PS3, Xbox, SNES) - Optional
Laptops ( If you guys wants…. lets have a COD4/DOTA Lanparty, but we need a switch or router…)
Cards (Poker cards)
TableCloths/detergent/sponge
Comdoms/Bilbos/A-plug

volunteers? pretty please?

Personal Items that you SHOULD bring.
Change of clothes
Soap/shampoo
Swimming costume / Trunks / decent shorts that wun fall off after jumping into water

….With this:

Now, consider that the Japanese downgrade their fries and drinks by one size, so our medium is their large (and I speak from experience; I’ve seen quite a few Japanese tourists take one look at our medium drinks and basically go “PHWAR SHO BIG ARH”).

How in the nine hells does this continue to sell in Japan again?

(And on a side note, now I’m hungry XD)

So apparently, Capcom decided that after 10 years Street Fighter fans need a sequel, a movie AND an anime to be released in quick succession, blithely ignoring the obvious questions like “Why not just make the damned movie an OVA”, etc. Anime trailer ahoy!

Also of note is the recent press release thingy held at Comic-con ‘08 where the producer fielded questions and also showed off an animated teaser/intro thingamajig for SFIV (skip to the end if you don’t want to hear the Q&A):

So now we have an anime, an anime….intro….thing, and 2D stills for the story sequences in SFIV. Cue cries of “WHY IS THE MOVIE #$%\^-ING LIVE ACTION” and “2D NOT 3D”

Reply in the comments. Thanks.

My Uni life in NTU has only started for 2 days and i’m already looking forward towards the short break we are getting in 6/7wks time.
Ya, u r right, the recess week.

According to my the NTU/NUS 08/09 academic calender, There’s a Recess Week starting from 20 September. So, im thinking of having chalet on the wkdays (maybe 3D2N?).

Chalets i have in mind are

> Aloha Changi.
- $35-$85 per night
- If you came for my birthday party on May b4. You should have an idea of how it’s like
- PROs-> Cheap price for a BIG apartment, Lotsa Peace and quiet, much much easier to get
CONs-> Desolated, Mosquito Infestation, Far from urban area unless u r interested in Futanari (doubt got ふたちんちん though）@ Changi Villiage.
Personal Comments: Budget Chalet. Not bad but abit too out of place. ppl tend to get lost in the area as proven by my previous experience. But really, it’s…. big and cheap!

> Aloha Loyang
- $45-$85 per night
- PROs-> Big Rooms, Slightly more expensive on average, Got a Pool nearby, Walkable distance to Downtowneast.
CONs-> fucking hard to get.
Personal Comments: If everyone got alittle bit more $ to spare, we can get the Pool view Chalet. It’s basically a chalet facing directly @ a big big swimming pool. It’s cost $85 bucks pernight. However, it’s fucking hard to get. But if ur dun mind, let’s get this :). Ill book it ASAP

Ok next thing is FOOD.
And when we are talking about chalet. We MUST HAVE BBQ.
Im probably going to EZB again as their stuff is good (better than BBQwhoresale). Unless we have volunteers who wants to supply us with good BBQ foodstuff. That, we can discuss later.

And when we have BBQ. We MUST HAVE GAMES
Mahjong, Consoles, Laptops.
Need me say more?

$$ Estimation:

Stay = 3D2N
Lodging = $85/night -> $170 in total
BBQ = $10 per head
Participants = 15

Average is around $22 each?
But to make it safe, $25?
more ppl = cheaper btw.

So can i have a show of hands - how many are interested in this chalet?
And Comments?
It’s not limited to 1Obn Ppl only hor…… Friends of 1Obn are welcomed too.
But of coz…. they must pay… with their body ($ is fine too of cos)

The Chalet has been booked. From 23 Sep to 25 Sep. But got some other things (food, logistic, bla bla) to straighten out. so please input in this thread, or sms/msn me. Ty
