Burn After Reading and Tournament Plans..

Harvey, KK, Vana, Riz and Prak met up to go Penin today. Some of us did shopping while some just watched on. Riz fulfilled a life-long ambition. More on that including a picture to come soon.

We then went to watch Burn After Reading. I've heard lots of bad reviews about it but for me it was entertaining and smart and worth a $6 ticket. Great acting from Brad Pitt, John Malkovich and George Clooney just to name a few.

We also discussed about our tournament to come. Things that were mentioned were:
  • Sponsors ( we need them to bring in cash. this way we can lower entry fees and raise prize money. hopefully this will attract more teams. Potential sponsors mentioned were Weston Corporation and a possible food provider)

  • Bringing in celebrities to grace the tournament. We need names that will attract people but cost should be minimal or none. Names mentioned were Shebby Singh, John Dykes, Sundram, Abbas Saad, some TCS stars..

  • Venue. Let's host it somewhere radical. Inside Funan Centre? Outside Cathay building? Sentosa for a 2d/1N tournament? Batam? Let's make it a memorable experience.

  • Things we need to do: Posters, flyers, website..

That's just some ideas being thrown around. More input is welcome. Till we meet up to discuss then..
