4. Techniques in the art of Dice Stacking B)

I've heard a lot about this Mr Sim. -_- He is well known for his craft but he is very underground and prefer to stay out of public eye most of the time. -_-

And his dice stacking is legendary around SG to say the least. Those interested should definitely check it out. B)

I had the privilige to see this Mr Sim do his dice stacking once. -_- Ungimmicked stuff, and there are some amazing looking stunts with multiple dices and cups. More than what you think is possible. B)

That sucks.. Why got that kind of rule? I mean, Wouldnt his main source of participants from the age group of below 18s?

Err, M.A.D., I dont mean that you're too old to learn such stuff, but just implying that this kind of events are usually targeted of all age groups, but mostly youngsters like below 18. So I was just kinda wondering.. Well, you should get what I mean. ;)

Or perhaps its because its a CC, then they dont want those troublemakers.. Haha.

Yea, and perhaps dices is often used in gambling. Hence the age limit.

I had call the CC, they had follow up with the Trainer, he concern was that parent might misunderstand of the class and that if u are in Sec School and your parent had no issue with that, :P

You are welcome.. B)
