MythBusters Meridian Edition Episode 3
In this episode of MythBusters Meridian Edition, we are testing the myth of what cards can open our back gate. All Meridians must be familiar with the experience of bwing locked out of the side gate when they arrive by bus. and we all know that the gate can only be opened by tapping the correct card(MJ teachers access only) at the card reader. In this episode, we are testing a number of "substitute" cards and we'll see which ones work.
1. EZ Link card:BUSTED
There was no response form the card reader. This is lagely due to the difference in electromagnetic frequency that can be read by the card. EZ Link is not compatible with the MJ reader.
2.Photocopy card: BUSTED
That's not a contactless card. Definitley impossible to be read by the reader.
3.Popular Card:TOTALLY BUSTED
There's no computer chip or anything metallic in that card. the reader'll be nuts if it could read it.
4.Kopitiam card: Plausible but still BUSTED
This is the most likely candidate but we are still unsuccessful at opening the gate. The reader was able to register the card and even flashed the green light, which means no error. But the card's code does not match the teacher's card. So too bad...still BUSTED.
That's all we've tested. next time, we will be testing the SENTOSA card as well as the "NETS WAVE" card. However, I shall predict that the SENTOSA card will be busted as well as the SENTOSA card can be registered by the EZ Link card reader. Which means its frequency is different from the MJ reader. So most probably it's busted. The NETS WAVE card I shall predict a plausible because this card is able to accpet a wider range of frequency so it is plausible that the reader is able to read it. But opening the gate will be another matter.
One alternative method will be to bring an industiral magnet, those very powerful ones, and slam it at the reader. Most probably, the stron magnetic force would destroy the reader and probably unlock the door.(Note: Don't try this. We don't guarnatee your safety)
And finally, the sure-open method. Bring an axe,chainsaw, or somthing big. Smash the electric lock and you'll be guaranteed clearance. But we will definitley not gurantee your safety. Especially if Ms Lai catches you.(Note: This is one of those "Don't try this at home" stuff. Seriously. you won't wana get caught doing this.)

MythBusters Mugger's Special Episode 2.Top 10 Mugger myths.These are some myths about mugger life in MJ which we are going to analyse today. Most of which are collected from last year and this year's batch of J1s
1. wah! So cool! POOL TABLE!2.they even have a swing! So romantic!3.Ahh! Tutorials! Dun do nevermind4.Test ar..only lecture test, everyone fail together5.CCA is great! let's run for EXCO position!6.ooh! Mugging is sooooo COOL! It's SO hip!7.what?! they call them Blockies! What a cute name!8.Mr Chee is so nice to bully!XD (this is always true!)9.Chem SPA is just damned Spectacular!10. Let's go out this weekend and play shall we?Sure can catch up one!Our verdict?
Before we proceed, please drop away your mugging material into the nearest book drop. Small people please be careful not to fall in. XDExcessive mugging is bad for your brain( Myth confirmed by people going Woodbridge 1 month prior exams) and body( Confirmed again by "someone" who died at XJC recently...really)Myth1:PlausibleThe pool table is cool but spending too much time pooling will result in "Mdm" throwing you into the pool(the one with a very nice fountain)Myth2:PlausibleDon't get too romantic as the swing is for 3. Besides engrossing too much with your dear will make your other "dear"(your results) angry. And they come with vengence. Don't let those "arrows" that come in "U's" scare you.Myth3: BUSTEDTutorials are a MUST DO! Just look at our blockies! They simply copy-and-paste-ed all the hard hard cheem cheem questions from tutorial! Some tutors actually check studetns for doing their tutorials and those who fail to do so....hehe..ask Chris-Chen. "I give you "FORM A" and you will take it down to Ms Lai and she'll treat you to her personaly hand-made coffee."Myth4:BUSTEDYes. We all fail our tests together. Blockies are a prime example. Quote:"Maths ar..maths very easy. After get back results Ms Lai sure treat us one!"(You know what that means) The consequences shall be censored shall we?Myth5:TOTALLY BUSTEDI shall not elaborate. Ask any EXCO member and you get the full picture. I think Syen will agree with me.Myth6:TOTALLY BUSTEDMUGGING gives you A's during your A's. But over-doing it will kill you.Myth7:TOTALLY BUSTEDBlockies are NOT CUTE at all.Myth8:ConfirmedMr Chee is always very very very very very nice to bully. An exploding cake for his birthday would definitley be suiting (just joking). Very nice to di-siao during consultations too. (I don't take physics by the way)Myth9:BUSTEDSince when is SPA exciting?! If that's the case, our hosts, Adam Savage And Jamie Hynemen would have hosted this episode personally! Forget about big explosions or spectacualr super-sized myths. All you do is memorize, regurgitate, memorize,regurgitate,memorize......until one fine day, you see some slpattered remains of your brain on your SPA paper.Myth10:BUSTEDWhy?One paticularly famous principal once said:To get your A's, you have to mug 4 hours on weekdays and 10 hours on weekends.(You should know her well.)Labels: Block Tests, JC life, Meridian JC, Meridian Mega Mugging Madness, MugBusters, Mugging, MythBusters
