A reply

If you recall, recently we applied for the Fat Ass Club FASS Club and posted our application as a blog post. We got a reply!. Below the reply is our subsequent response.




Hi there realFASS,
Thank you for your interest in wanting to help the FASS Club under Publicity. After discussion with my other MC members, we've decided that we can only work with you if only you are able to work with us physically, meaning to say, you can't stay anonymous, at least to us. At the MC, we take all publicity of the club seriously as we are a representative body of the students in FASS.
Hence, in order for the partnership to come through, this is what we need from you:
1) Proposal

2) Timeline as in frequency of content updates

3) How this will fit into current publicity efforts

4) Content filtering

5) Amount of say Publication Secretaries (ie Hui Tze & me) have with regards to the tweets

6) Rationale for writing in to us since you guys are already doing well

7) What would you expect from fass club in return for your contributions

Thank you.
Regards,
Red SEO (Mr)
Deputy Publications Secretary
31st Management Committee
NUS Students' Arts & Social Sciences Club

Our response:

Hi there Mr SEO,

Thank you for considering our application to the NSASSC. Unfortunately, we cannot fulfil your pre-requisite of disclosure of identity, so we will withdraw our application. In spite of that, we will answer your 7 questions (albeit not seriously) since you bothered to come up with so many.

1) Proposal
Love is just not staring at each other but is looking at the same direction. Lets look at the same direction sweetheart. Will you marry me?

2) Timeline as in frequency of content updates

3) How this will fit into current publicity efforts
I don't see how this is a necessary question.
Twitter account = greater publicity. What more is there to explain?

4) Content filtering
Sorry, no. If we were to implement any filter on our content, it is akin to allowing a gun only to fire arrows. That wouldn't hit any target would it? (pun intended)

5) Amount of say Publication Secretaries (ie Hui Tze & me) have with regards to the tweets
Zero, as mentioned above.

6) Rationale for writing in to us since you guys are already doing well
We appreciate the compliment that we are doing well, although we hardly think so. 200+ followers is hardly well, just, sufficient I guess. That aside, why we were writing in was already mentioned in the previous email correspondence.

7) What would you expect from fass club in return for your contributions
This question has also been answered at length in our previous email correspondence. 

Once again, we thank you for your time and effort, and wish you all the best in your society's endeavors.

Regards,
realFASS
