Yes, I had been planning this for a while. The research took me well over two days. But the actual writing took only over an hour By the way, the AIS, its Directors and the department are real. And, yes, they would also like to own a super-computer
That's not my main point, better use research time & writing article time to write 'real' articles to be published, but then you all are the mods.
Technical, the "article" is real (in the sense that it exists and is not vapourware) and is published albeit in BC Forum. It's certain a much better article than those jokers at Newpaper can manage. At least it's grammatically sound and consistent.
arent you gals and guys be pleased with the entertainment provided after few "spicy food" for the past few weeks?
That wasnt my main point either. Since Oldhand can write such good articles, better to write 'real' article to be published in publications(whatever type) than making an April fool joke(cos I wouldnt). But that's just my opinion.
Actually.. ..i was expecting Oldhand to compose a spin-off or something from LCW's "spicy food incident" at this yr's Indian Open GP....Now, i can imagine that'll really "spice up" (no pun intended) the M'sian BC community; can you imagine how many posts or pages that would generate??...
Ms eagle, how did u know it wasn't facts until someone revealed it wasn't facts? u didnt comprehend the far far higher value of oldhand's trickery, that is, we should all be careful of what we read on the internet, and don't automatically accept what u read as fact or gospel, even if they were written and presented in with great composition, attractive packaging and realistic scenery. Ex http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=44686&highlight=phiten This free lesson from oldhand(and other gulity mods) would benefit us in the REAL life, even tho the lesson was based on FALSIFIED information ps: Mods, i expect brownie points for this post
Many strange and unexpected research projects are often conducted at our AIS . Yes, that was why I believed in the research at the start. Many strange and unexpected research projects are often conducted at our AIS. This one, I posted some 2 years ago: click here .
Zhao is my ultimate all time idol in the sport. Yet i still cannot believe this article... Jans Eriksen was still competing @37. even he decline from the charts graduately. It makes much more sense if Zhao is going to coach for any national team IMO. If he is really going to compete, he will have my support. However, i will believe this article until i see him in action with my own eyes first. It is April 1st today afterall.
I had my doubts when I first read the news. Former top Chinese male players over 40 found challenging playing against top Chinese female players. I consider Zhao at his best was better than current players, but I think at his current level he would not stand any chances against the top players. It was a well thought and written thought.
The research really shows. Well done. Unfortunately, the "total recall" thing was a premature give away
How you did know that I didnt know it was not facts earlier ? And you know very well their original intent, same thing happened last yr which I think lasted a couple of weeks , want to say2 some more. That wasnt my main point either. I dared to say it cos I would not spend my time & energy constructing a joke under any circumstances. Nor poke fun or mock a company or people (like the 'joke' in the Phiten thread). I was trying to say as nicely as possible that there more productive means to using the skills like researching, writing and submitting errr.........serious articles to actual publications (which is what I would do), esp in the current eco situation. Like the Chinese saying goes "Eat full already, very free......" So now, I have to say so direct, wait people will get angry, this cooler, tsk tsk.
