The Conclusion

So today we had a meeting with the committee at 10.30 in the morning. We let them speak their mind first and questioned them later to which we got half baked and some even ridiculous answers from the president. The incident was that when the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd team arrived. They told those teams they were the first three. Miscommunication number two at that. Number one being that they never announced it to all the other teams we had an advantage.

Even more shocking because they did not think of the aftermath real resourceful people could have given them after the event. Heck, we had a whole hours advantage over the rest, not resourceful enough? So screwing they got via our group representative G. All they could say was having an advantage did not mean it would guarantee our victory. Somehow its like saying Badawi had a 20000 vote majority but does not guarantee him victory in the elections. At the end, the wisest member of the group asked for more time to reconvene. Seriously, it was the first logical explanation I have heard all day. And did I mention they wanted to give us a dvd player and some vouchers as compensation for 2000 bucks worth of prizes?

So we met again at 4.30. This time they agreed to our terms of being acknowledged as the joint winners. I don't like sharing victory. But at least there's gonna be an apology letter to the public announcing the details of the incident which clearly proves that our team are the real winners. Sufficient enough emotionally, can't say the same for monetary terms. And we had to accept the fact that SAC of TBS is kinda poor...and they cant just pull a stack of RM2000 from nowhere. So we left it at that. Vouchers, possibly paintball vouchers and a meal at secret recipe sponsored by them to cover the rest. Your verdict people?
