Team update:
TLC has been removed from the squad. The poor fella didn't know he was enrolled in to play for his Poly team in the same league, team name Synergy. The same one that hantam us 16-4.
Please give a warm round of applause as we welcome in Mr. Titan, who will replace TLC in Dimension X's lineup
AND....
I was kinda hoping that Titan can make his league debut this week, but I'm afraid you lot still haven't recovered from hangovers.
Reason being I would like to get you off to a gentler start, we're facing (standings as per last week) the second bottom team... so the pressure won't be as heavy as facing teams led by Roger Tuar or Jesmine Ho... which I think will be next week.
How Ding? Want to save yourself for next week instead? -
hey prata, i'm coming down on thurs to pass u registration $$ hor!
dun worry worry woorrrrry~~~
Jasmine Ho we ask Titan to sian her, then she cannot play liao. The rest just try best to win the guys in the team!!! -

I'll be glad to oblige
Think Brendan would need me there to give him some kicks in the butt... else he'll slack -
Alrighteo.
The team lineup has been decided for this week. Sorry for the delays.
1) Jason will make his highly anticipated debut! Sorry to say I will put extra mental stress on him by teaming him up with..
2) Brendan, the cartwheeler, breakdancer, lofter. Bad game? No problem, ever the optimist, Brendan WILL cartwheel for you when he strikes even after 5 splits in a row. Joining him will be...
3) Jae, the only sole sane team mate that Jason will have for the night. Silent, but deadly, watch him tune into the game and focus ..... lastly...
4) Ding, getting more anchor experience. Well, let's see if he gets up for "less than best" opposition!
I'll probably play the week after with Hayden/Tom, Jay and Phua. I hope you'll understand I can't put you both (Hay/Tom) in at the same time, not yet at least. I'm sure the time will come soon enough.
Last I heard, Tom's improving very rapidly and Hayden seems to be becoming more stable. Great news! -

Let's not overdo things though, Brendo.
Not much sense in attracting attention we don't need.
Dinner at 6:45pm at Katong Shopping Centre? Ding? Tom? Bren? Jae? Jase? -

u all eat, i drink.
hahaha... -
Hey firstly prata! You bo jio me for dinner ah??!
Kekeke.
Well well well, Report time!
Yesterday Dimension X Lineup:
1) Titan aka JAson
2) Jae
3) Ding
4) Freemum aka Brendan
First of all, Jason had his debut of league competition and being the roll off bowler, he did his part. CHEERS! Welcome to the Jungle!
Ok match statistics: We got five points out of twenty! Opponents are strong and i'm sure our team had put in their outmost effort! Thanks to our supporters
rataman ( MAnager), Player1, Chuanish, me, and Jae's gf if i'm not wrong and Harmzuay!
Points allocation: Jae 2 points, Ding 2 points, and 1 point from third game win.
Well lets not be FRUSTRATED and the only way for us is up!
Didn't seems to see much of Brendan's cartwheel!
Hmmm.....
Anyway hope next week will be better! CHEERS! I Tink it should be better~! -
Well, next week, WXman re-enters the fray.
Team will be comprised of Hayden, Weixiang, Jay Soong and myself.
Sorry to keep you waiting again Tom, but you will definitely play the week after next, along with the Phuaster. ( and this time bring your Navy ) -
no problem man!
if it makes the team win the games, i don;t mind waiting! -
Yah! Long time no see WXman! Where did he go huh? Seems to dhave vanished from our bowling circuit for a while
OH!!! i know! he went to Taiwan rite? Went to get more Taiwan Spinner balls ah? Yo Prata! Will definitely play my best!No fancy style from me though...juz my SURGE will do....tink you'll agree! -
Yeah, he went Taiwan alright
Should be back by now...
Need him to add more bite to the team. Prata, we should get James to play against th estronger teams. We lack a strong anchor badly
-
Nothing against Brendan, but Ding is right. When you have Freemun anchoring the team like we had on Thurs, you know you have a lack of depth in the squad, anchor-quality. BUT, everyone who can play has already played (12 of us), and we can't make changes now.... so.....
Mage, our main "main man", is away charging mountains and digging trenches. Even James, whom we pin such high hopes on, managed to have an off-day from the first slot, much less the anchor slot. Problem also is we can't expect James to play all the time, he does have a shop and a business to run. Have to assume they are "out" most of the time.
Still very early, but right now our 3 leaders in terms of averages are:
1) Mage, avg 197 (3 gms)
2) Prata, avg 187 (6 gms)
3) WX, avg 181 (3 gms)
Fearfully enough, at last glance, Brendan was the dude with the lowest handicap after these 3, at 16
That should have changed from last Thurs results... think Jae could be least now. No wait... I'm not sure about Ding and Phua....have to go check.
( Been neglecting my Katong stats..... oops. More concentrated on the Classic one! )
What does that mean? Lots of anchor practice for me and WX when we do play. I'd like to think that we can "hold our own" against most when we ain't too careless, but certainly not against the top teams. Madness. Having James and Jay Soong at max handicap will help in a way, too. -
i have max handicap scores man!!!
woohoo..
meaning if i hit a 160, opponent hit a 179...i +20 also win.
wahaha....
duh, i guess it was nervousness on my part that screwed me up.
but now i've done this once, its no big deal already.
btw, league oiling pattern is always heavy on the outside? -
Player1,
That equation will only work if you're playing against a scratch opponent, ie 0 handicap. Which isn't really likely, unless we're playing against 4 scratch bowlers, and/or we field 4 max handicap bowlers. Which is even unlikelier.
The oiling is actually not heavy on the outside. In fact, it's a rather clean backend and thin outsides on league nights. You may be referring to your ball's late breakpoint, or failure to turn enough to the pocket.
2 things:
1) You favour an inside line, more often than not. You make your ball travel through the oil in the middle part of the lane first, so this extra sliding in the oil will cause your ball to sometimes skid past or go outside of the optimum break point.
2) A Shock Zone was built for length and snap. Skid is already imbued into the coverstock, you certainly didn't need to help it by moving so deep so quickly.
Perhaps it will be better for you to start outside and shoot a straighter line almost parallel to the gutter, and move in as necessary. Play what the lane gives you, rather than trying to overpower it. -

Great!! Let's do just that.
Why do I get the feeling that sometimes we don't have the whole team focused on the task at hand? Let's correct that, shall we?
Let's see it this Thursday! -
Onz We shall see that
-
Yah balls! I SHALL need to do tat! CHEERS! And I"LL do that!
