There's nothing much on friday. Got ironman briefing and CCA after that.

Today's ironman preliminary contest very fun and challenging. It really stimulates the participants' minds to think creatively and fast.

First task: Design a car using provided materials in 2 hours. The movement of car can only be induced using a cloth peg. (There are also other tiny little details/rules but shall not mention here, too long)

The above is the overview of the first task. Quite challenging uh? You have to decide how the car will move. Moreover, you have to carry some drink packets (full). The more you carry, the higher your score. Nevertheless, some groups decide to bend and play with the rules, using unorthodox methods... Results: More than 50% of the teams = 0cm moved...

Second task: Teams are divided into two groups. First group: Translate a series of questions into codes (cannot use any known language, symbols, shapes, etc). Second group: After first group has coded, second group is supposed to decode and answer the question. I in second group so have to wait for the code to come then i can decode and answer the question. Woa... first group code so long... then the code come to my group that time only left 10 mins. OMG! Meng liao... Managed to decode like half half of every questions. Then got one math question, no time to solve, die man... Got one question free frag give back 5 points: "Twelve TWINS twirled twelve twigs. Are there enough for everyone?" Wa lao, I didn't saw it was TWINS, so I thought enough for everyone. Then it's actually 24 people so not enough.... ARGH !!!!

Third task: Teams are also divided into two groups. First group: Find the code through solving puzzles to unlock the box which is with the second group. Louis and Adrian in second group cause after first group solve the code liao, the people have to use chairs to cross over to the second group... But then hor, the second group people can also try any random combinations to unlock the locks. So cool...! Initially, we thought we got the code by solving the puzzle but it's not the correct code. Lol, the we communicate to second group by putting the paper into the wheel and roll it over... Louis dam pro, managed to get the code by random trying. YAY ! Then we completed the task.

Finally! The competition is over. Great! Scores are out - My team was ranked 9/11... Nevertheless, this is still a good experience for us. The NCC Team managed to represent Singapore/Our School to take part in the Ironman in Taiwan. Wish them all the best!

When I reached home dam tired liao. Going to sleep soon...
