I found out about Cabal through a full-page Newpaper ad during attachment to Creative. I started playing Cabal soon after that as I felt that I needed a MMORPG-game whereby I can train and maintain a character unlike DotA. After all I had grown up playing MMORPG games. Given that my laptop was 2 and 1/2 years old at that point in time, it can be known that the graphics card was barely good enough to even run it. However I stuck to it and kept playing.
This was when I bought my desktop after two weeks of research and decision-making, with the main purpose of playing Cabal in mind. I quitted Cabal after I reached level 120+ and had upgraded my equipments. I was bored but satisfied and wanted to move on. Throughout my Cabal life, I was in this guild called STORM, led by Wes (2five6).
There was a guild BBQ at Sembawang which Wes organised and me, Zai and Jason (my classmates who were also playing Cabal and in the guild) were there. It was lots of fun although there were barely any food due to a weak fire caused by bad charcoal, we talked a lot of crap with the other guild members.
Anyway the main topic (finally) is that in all the MMORPG games I've played, I have never given out my characters or items after quitting. Although the game may be uninstalled already I still have the usernames and passwords.
A few days ago when Wes sms-ed me early in the morning while I was in the train to sch, he said "ehh you don't play cabal liao right? donate items leh". My instant reaction was.. "okay lemme change password then sms you again". When he replied that the username and password were okay, it signified my first step to gaming less. Furthermore at night I passed my username and password to another good friend whom I got along very well with in Cabal, Ellusion.
Being already 19 years old, there has got to be better things to do than play so much games, right?

Spent most of my time today at sch trying to figure out the file upload for FYP website. After Clem taught me how to configure the new .jar libraries, I managed to do a local upload as well, meaning the algorithm and engine was working fine but I couldn't upload to the host either. Before I left sch I sent an email to W3Hub (the web host) asking what do I put as the directory.
Surprisingly they had replied by the time I got home and I tried the directory they gave. It worked! I quickly informed the rest of the group. But (there's always a but) my coding only works with FireFox 2+ and a small add-on. At least now we have a backup plan, something which to fall back on, instead of nothing at all, although something which works with FireFox version 3+ and other browsers would of cuz be most ideal. Hope Josh, Ameen and Clem's one will not have these boundaries, now that I've resolved the directory problem and that the other two will get their act straight and finish editing the web pages professionally.
I'm finished with the Visual Basic assignment as well and it's considered ready for submission, just need to show it to Josh and Ameen to resolve a un-noticeable bug and do the Help form.
Looks like there won't be much DotA for the remaining few days until projects and exams are over. I'm glad about this actually.
