Okay fun's over here is the serious stuff,
To all: Please be reminded to wash all of your costumes and return them to the QMs or Kee Lui this coming tuesday, 6th May.
To QMs only: Please be reminded to call Costume Connection for the sample of Charms of the Orient/Oriental Beauties (whatever the name is) costume. Important reminder - the Water Sleeves
Regarding Aristal Tickets: The quota that each dancer can have for a Category 1 ticket is 150/58, which is approximately 2.586206897, and that of Category 2 ticket is 50/58, which is approximately 0.8620689655. So what do all these calculations mean?
What it basically mean is my rough estimate for all of you, 3 cat 1 and 1 cat 2 quota per dancer, is a severe overestimate, assuming everyone orders that amount, as that would result in a grand total of 3 x 58 = 174 cat 1 tickets and 1 x 58 = 58 cat 2 tickets, which far exceeds what we are given. So the current situation is that if i order even 1 cat 2 ticket, i am depriving someone else of his/her chance to order a cat 2 ticket, since my quota is less than 1. So how? So how?
Here's our solution, those that ordered less than or equal to 2 cat 1 tickets (0,1,2), your tickets are guaranteed. This is, according to present circumstances, the only guarantee that we can give. For those who ordered more than 2, priority would be given to those who ordered less tickets (for instance, dancer A who ordered 3 cat 1 tickets will have priority over dancer b who ordered 4 cat 1) In other words, those who ordered 10+ tickets under your own name, good luck.
For those who want to order lots of Cat 1 tickets or even order some Cat 2 tickets, go look for dancers who do not want to order any or have quota remaining, then request from them to help you order the ticket(s) under their name. (For example, i want to order 10 Cat 1 tickets, but i only have a quota of 2.58 approx., so i would have to look for 3 other dancers who do not want to order any and get them to order "2.5" tickets each, in doing so, i must also ensure that it is noted down by either Danni or Daryl that i am the one using their quota so the 2.5 makes sense, the same hold true for Cat 2 tickets)
WHY NOT FIRST COME FIRST SERVE?
Yeah, in that case i'll order all 150 Cat 1 and 50 Cat 2 since i am definitely first. Hope you see my pointe.
Please understand that while this concept may not be perfect it does at least ensure fairness in theory. Implementation of this concept may be an administrative nightmare but i really want to ensure that every Chinese Dancer gets a fair chance in obtaining the tickets . I am truly sorry for any inconvenience caused.
*Please settle all Aristal Ticket payments and orders latest by this coming Thursday, 8th May. Those who fail to order any will be assumed to have given up his/her quota.
On a lighter note, lets thank the overall Dance Jacket in charge WENDY for the wonderful dance jackets that arrived safely in our hands yesterday!!! Personally speaking, i like it a lot =) and 28 bucks is really a great bargain don't you all think so? So once again, lets thank Wendy for all the hard work she has put in (she has been planning for it since 22nd October last year, if you refer to previous posts), be it in coordinating the design of the jacket, finding a suitable supplier, haggling of prices, all the way to personally collecting the dance jacket money! (whew thank god! kidding...)
J2s will now be taking a short break from dance practices in preparation for our Common Tests, we hope the rest of you will work hard together, even in our absence, and give us a good surprise seeing all of you improving by leaps and bounds when we come back for practice yeah?
When we perform, we are at our BEST! GOGOGO!!!
._. Wah Chun ._.
always at our best.
Look at jiahui!!!
