New Year's Small Competition of Visual Gaming, Imagine Cup 2005, won by Zeddy. He got Microsoft Fingerprint Reader. Congrats man... For those of you that doesn't know yet, Visual Gaming invitation is having quite a few small competition before entering round 2, and usually they come with new maps and new SDKs.
I was actually wanted to participate too, but since the final exams and lot of stuff going around, I haven't finish working on my AI. Hopefully when next small competition started I've finished mine. If anyone interested in ImagineCup, especially Visual Gaming, you can try to browse around and take a look especially at the hub to peek what kind of competition is it.

Hm, seems like I'm the last SA posting, Adrian and Umar get ahead of me :p
Yesterday I came to Microsoft's building (10 minutes lage because the taxi driver misunderstand and drove me to JCC first, LOL). When I got there I meet Adrian and Umar, and wait for a while for Mr. Risman. When he came, he sort of explain briefly about SA's tasks and open one of the SA packets (yay!!!). The meeting only last until 1130, and we (me, Adrian, and Umar) decided to have our own tour in Microsoft office. We take a look at the Auditorium (It''s big and cool...), and when Umar's checking the PCs in front of the Auditorium, the receiptionist asked us if we finished using the room (Politely kicked us out :p). We go downstairs and circle from Tower II to Tower I and back to Tower I again. And then, me and Umar went back, and Adrian was waiting for his parent to pick him up. When I got home, I opened entire packets. The best part is Visual Studio.NET which contain MSDN Library CD. I was trying to download them from theSpoke, but now I won't have to : ) Another interesting part is the letter which say that when Visual Studio.NET 2005, Yukon (SQL Server 2005), and Windows Longhorn is released, we (SAs) will be one among those who receive the beta copy....
Well, finally I just wanna say thank you for Microsoft and Mr.Risman for choosing me for Student Ambassador 2005 for Binus. I will try to do my best (After June of course, Mr.Risman said that we should focus on ImagineCup first. Btw, anyone wanna participate in ImagineCup?). And also, nice to know 2 other SAs and meet them, hopefully I know 3 other SAs later
