Looking at this state I will suggest cancelling this event.
This is NOT SGTRAINS
leh!
SGTrains is able to host such events because it is organised by
a large party of admins, and these events are approved ones. With a
fixed number of helps and lots of planning beforehand, they are
then able to conduct such activities for the SGTrains
committee.
However, in SGForums where can you get the desired number of
people who are willing to go for the race? Worse still, you
MAY NOT EVEN host this
race and expect others to host it for you?
It is super STRANGE
that you are the one who wanted this event and yet you wanted
others to host for you?!!
Also, hosting major events is NOT A JOKE AT ALL! Hosts
are expected to be free on the exact day of the event. Also, hosts
should already have fixed a date before even mentioning about the
event, not choose a random date and expect people to join.
Who are going to be responsible for the safety of the
participants btw? You have a limited number of helps. In SGTrains
there are cameramens who follow the participants, and maybe they
will ensure their safety? Who knows? But in this case? Who's going
to be responsible? You can't track down the locations of all the
participants rite? Even if you can, you gonna end up with extremely
high phone bills.
Planning major events is much tougher than you think. Don't host
an event just because some organisations host it and you find it
interesting to host. DOESN'T
WORK THAT WAY! You need to calculate the
expenses for this race and who's going to pay for it. Don't expect
the helpers to help you pay hor. Even your helpers also run away
liao, what do you expect? And don't ask me to help hor, though I'm
your friend, I'm not going to do it this time round.
Lastly, looking at this state right now I dun think anyone will
want to go for this race, purely just by judging from the
responses, and the number of dislikes received for your video. Even
those who didn't mention anything will mostly think it's just crap.
You want to host on June, on December 2013 somemore? Please lah!
你这个比赛都搞不定了,还想要继续举办?别太天真啦!
PLAN, PLAN,
PLAN! If you think hosting events is so
easy, please think carefully again. That's all I can say.
To ^tamago^, may I
request this thread to be locked, cos' this event is definitely
going to turn out to be a failure. Thanks!
Just because this SGtrains can host such events does not mean
they are the only people who can host such events......
