A quick one before I head to bed;

Tomorrow I’ll be flying to Jakarta for the regional finals of the Gigabyte Open Overclocking Championship 2010.

The first time I heard about it, it sounded like something a bunch of scientists with lab coats and clipboards would do in a room full of motherboards, but after checking out the reports of previous championship finals on the net, I’m now rather excited.

I guess, in a way, it’s sorta like building the faster race car, or creating that battle robot to put in an arena and watch as they duke it out for the prize. In a geeky way, it looks incredibly fun.

I’m not sure I’ll be getting Internet there, but I hope there is. There’s also a day where Gigabyte will take us out on a post-championship Ayer Island chill-out, where the GOOC handbook states that we shall ‘Enjoy the sun and beach on a private island’. Whatever that is, I highly doubt they have Internet.

But yeah, so I’ll be pretty much missing for the better part of the weekend. Drop a message when the Third Reich of the Goats decided to invade in their milk bottle spacecrafts.

Goodnight people
