ADP's Miss(literally missing)Adventures of Bowling

ADP recentlt held an unofficial championship bowling against each other. Fighting for superiority over pins. The event ended with agent D.O.N.K.E.Y as the champion of the game, he's superiority was achieved with a 9 pound ball and many stupid and nutty err akward movements. When asked to comment, he had this to say:

"1st it's Monopoly, then it's bowling, soon i shall rule ADP!!! And then no one will be able to stop me!!!! Mwahahahaha!!!!"

As for now, agent D.O.N.K.E.Y holds no exceptional post except for he's title as ADP 2nd license holder. Other than that, he is considered to be ADP's ministry of defence and is currently taking care of ADP stronghold in Jalan Klang Lama. This may all change soon enough.

ADP's new cult?

Unofficial news have reached us that ADP is starting a new cult that and recruiting minions is a few of their starting operations. This information was overheard during ADP's unofficial bowling tournament. ADP members were seen laughing evilly while talking about something called ADP religion. At the moment, no official news or statements have been released to support this information.

When asked to comment about this information at the ADP unofficial bowling tournament. ADP unofficial CEO/door opener only had this to say.

"poke one for good luck, poke twice for better luck. This is no cult, it's merely a good luck charm that we plan to develop into a religion!!!!"

While putting he's hands together and stabbing air (imagine swimming with the frog style, when you put your hands together), to show us how it's done, agent D.O.N.K.E.Y strikes down another ten pins.

Hmmmm maybe it's really lucky afterall??? *Stab....stab*

ADP's ventures into the the Star War business, Monopoly style

ADP has tried to venture into business by trying out different simulations. One with a limited edition Star Wars Monopoly and another with a average PDA Monopoly game. So far, we have managed to prove nothing except that member Dominic's statistic's book is useless and hence he should burn it. So far, no one has truly dominated the simulation. Member Dom and Pok seems to be by far the stronger corporation compared to Adam who has lost and filed bankruptcy twice in a row to member Pok. So far, no more simulations have been planned to further test ADP's business ventures.

ADP's new skin? Is it just a rumour?

We have heard many times that ADP is planning a new skin. And this have been confirmed by current CEO of ADP, Blog Master Pok. Apparently current progress is slow due to him being lazy errr inefficiency within the ADP organization. The CEO released an official statement.

"We are currently working very hard to finish this template. It's top piriority. We've finished watching many many recent movies in order to acquire inspiration for the template. We figured that seeing Jessica Alba semi naked......errr Fantastic Four would give us some idea of unity for the blog template."

Many sources have agreed that the new skin, is in fact just a rumour and there is actually no new skin coming about. When asked to comment about these proffesional opinions, the CEO only had this to say:

"It is no rumour, there definitely is going to be a skin within this eon. We have achieved half the work. It's currently at 13% errrr 65% to completion. We assure that we are working on it"

An unofficial source within the ADP said this.

"Ahhh the CEO is not doing his job!! I shall take over once i complete my dominance at Monopoly and bowling!!!"

The source had decided to remain anonymous.

Who really owns ADP?

According to polls, the public has decided that George Bush is stupid they do no want anyone to own ADP except themselves. But when asked about this, all members Pok and Adam were determined to say that they owned ADP. Member Dom on the other hand, declined to comment.

ADP and Law....

There has been an ongoing rumour that ADP is presently studying law in order to complete their domination over courthouses in the world. All members of ADP have commented that there is no such thing and they are only studying Law because they have to in order to pass their Pre-University courses. How true is the statement? No source have been acquire to prove this. There is also a rumour that member Adam and Pok have acquire a time traveling device called the 'Legal Mobile' in order to travel to ancient times and conquer the world. This statement was also unproven and according to both members of ADP, the rumour only developed from an assignment from law class.

Till next time, this Blog Master P of ADP reporting.

*disclaimer: all statement are unfortunately only half true and the rest are made up =)*

Monopoly Star Wars!

Thats right folks!! this post is gonna be all about............



box cover of the monopoly set...behind is my bed...=P

the last time we played monopoly was on the 4th of july on doms PDA. that was kind of fun but not really realistic. We made up for that though by having a real game of monopoly at my place on thursday....and we didnt just play any normal game of monopoly....we played THIS :-

Limited edition star wars monopoly..see the numbers at the bottom? top is the date of manufacture and bottom is product number.

Well certainly not many can say theyve had a chance to play this. How many ppl ever get to play monopoly using figures of R2D2, storm troopers or darth vader made from pewter as pieces? But still the best part has to be the shiny brass coins that represent 1000 credits..u can see it in the pic there..=P

the game started off quite normally...although i landed on a lot of property and dom kept missing property and pok was only getting one or 2. this turned out to be a mistake of mine coz in the end i wasted too much money buying property in the beginning. as dom mentioned in the last post, he won the game on his pda. so this time u cud say that pok n i were kind of....well....on guard to make sure he didnt win again..=P didnt manage to take a pic of the start so i cant show anythin of it.

everything was pretty equal until dom managed to get 3 cheap properties which enabled him to start building houses. by the next 2 or 3 turns he had built hotels(starships) there. that was pretty much the turning point of the game for us..as each time we landed on it we had to pay 550 -600. for some reason i kept landing on it..i landed on it so much that even dom cudnt believe it. the guy who believes so much in statistics and probabilities couldnt understand how i managed to land on it 4 times out of 5 and pok didnt land on it at all...pok n i just told him to go burn his stats book...hahah

So after paying dom more than 2000 credits and mortgaging all my property...i had to bancrupt myself to pok...who inherited all my property. this is what it looked like after he got all my stuff :-

And dom looked like this :-

Thats doms feet...and thats my phone

It still wasnt an easy ride for pok after aquiring all my assets...he still had to pay 950 to unmortgage all my property. But after that they started playing a bit crazy. since it was getting late and we had been playing for a few hours already...they just started going all out and buying houses all over the place. the end result was somethin like that :-

The pic is a bit dark...just notice the houses all over the place..the 3 starports at the bottom were wat killed me off.

So after a few more minutes of intense playing and dice-rolling, pok had to concede defeat to dom. After the game we took a few bow-to-your-master shots :-

Me presenting my head....opps i mean assets on a platter.

Pok presenting HIS assets to dom...in his hand are a few property deed cards.

So when everything was over and the dust had settled on the bedroom floor, the winner of the game was once again dom, and i once again lost to pok. I guess the champion for ADP so far for monopoly has to be dom...........

Till Next Post Folks~!!

The Art of Business

ADP engage in a simulate economy!

On the 4 of July (American Independence Day), while the other part of the world is enjoying their national independence day, ADP was running a simulation of the real world economy trade. It involve only a PDA (no, not ADP spell PDA but Personal Digital Assistant) and lots of drinks. The objective of the simulation is to promote awareness in the current economy world, to practice buying and selling of asset, aggressive take-over, and corporate merge.

Each player start with 1500simulator dollar and asset ranging from 60- 400 simulator dollar. The number transaction per turn was determined by 2 complete dice. At the beginning, this simulation was conduct in a mamak store. Which later ended up at the now official ADP headquarter aka.. MY HOUSE!!!

The simulation begins with the government has now open it asset to the public from government control properties, railroads and utilities. Adam Dominic and Pok each represent a Multi National Company who was selected by the government to battle it out for complete ownership. The government wound intervene with subsidies, bank errors, market order, taxes and legal areas. For example, executing too many action in one go might end yourself in jail or at times you are require to pay income tax which is either 10% of all your asset or just 200 SD. It started with Dominic trying to own all control of the railroad which was prevented when Adam manage to break his complete domination by buying off one station and Pok who was lucky to receive the last station. After a while, most of the properties were brought by everyone resulting a stalemate, as a course no one was able to build houses and hotels. At one time, while Adam was conducting an auction between Dominic and Pok, Adam accidentally overcharge Pok by 50SD resulting a slight disagreement between the 2 parties.

After going round and round in circle, the 3 decided to open negotiation for business talk to benefit all 3 parties. Thanks to Dominic persuasions and the remaining 2 parties wiliness to listen. All 3 manage to require a piece of land to start construction. After a few housing areas was build, Adam began to experience some lack of funding, simply due to the fact that he was unlucky to ended up on Dominic land. To cover for the liability Adam had to trade it railroad station to Pok, who at the time was willing to pay Adam twice the original value, just nice to cover the cost. After receiving that blow to the head, Adam again receive another blow but unfortunately it was the final blow and was facing law sue from Pok requesting him to pay up for renting his Triple story semi detach house. Adam was unable to pay therefore decided to file chapter 11 , BANKRUPCY !! With this, all asset which Adam owns was take-over by Pok. And thus begin the battle between the remaining 2 tycoon, Dominic and Pok!

Both tycoons began a massive project to develop their properties, while Dominic was suffering the cost of rental from Pok new projects, Pok himself was hiding in jail avoiding all cost and law sue. In the end, due to the high cost and TTGH factor (Time To Go Home) eventually Dominic resort to bankrupt!

By the end of the day, Pok was the remaining tycoon who dominated the playing field with an end result of 9billion dollar (9382 SD) net worth.

The following was Adam comment regarding Pok domination, : “ It was Pok first time playing, so it was beginner’s luck!” While Dominic gave his comment with his infamous sigh, : “Siigggghhhh, oh well time to go home, the dogs barking”. While the victor had this to said, : “ We should do this more often, and find another player….”

This concludes the simulation for an economy world on board a virtue Monopoly board in Dominic’s PDA.
