Let Your Fingers Win Something
For You
By CT Hj Mahmod
Bandar Seri
Begawan - With the advances in technology in today's
telecommunications, mobile users can stimulate their mind and
'fingers' through MCQ Quiz and Fast Finger, a competition, where you
could let your finger do the talking and walk away with a grand prize
of B$500.
Because of good response for the
first trial competition on April 6, during the one day DST Dare
Challenge, Mach Telecommunications Systems is giving the games another
go. The games will begin, therefore on April 9 and end in April 30.
Winners of the previous fast finger
challenge were Dyg Hjh Hamizah bte Hj Suhaimi who took home $500, Dyg
Hjh Aizan bte Hj Ahmad who won B$200, and B$100 went to Ms Coral Lim.
Whereas, Awg Mohd Sofian bin Hj Abas won 1st place for the MCQ Quiz,
Awg Shahiroldini bin Hj Masli won 2nd place and 3rd place went to Awg
Hj Shahruddin bin Hj Abdul Wahid.
Fast finger is a game that tests the
player's speed of typing in an SMS message, where the player has to
first request for a phrase by sending in an SMS - 'FF GO', and send it
to the number 8885555. Then the player is required to type in the
phrase accurately and as fast as possible, in sending the SMS. The
time it takes for the player to send in the message will be recorded.
MCQ on the other hand, is an advanced
quiz engine that tests the player on all sorts of multiple-choice
questions using the SMS platform. It challenges by just typing 'MCQ
GO' and sending it to 8885555. The player will then receive a series
of multiple-choice questions, which can be answered by simply sending
in A, B, C, or D.
Mach Telecommunications System hopes
to bring in more games in the future which will be 'different and
stimulating .'
The SMS fast finger challenge and MCQ
quiz are open to everyone who are Prima or Easi subscribers of DST
Communications Sdn. Bhd. To participate, all you have to do is type
'FF GO' or 'MCQ GO' and sent it to 8885555 (30 cents for each SMS
received). For further queries, the public may contact 2238628. (Courtesy of
