Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong's sharing of his Sudoku solver source code has caused unhappiness among the members of the Minesweeper Youth Club, Singapore (MYCS). Last Thursday, club President, Mr Teo Bong Park released an open letter to criticise PM Lee's "open support" for their rivals at the Singapore Sudoku Society (SSS)
"I had high regards for PM Lee until that," said Mr Teo in an interview. "However, an open endorsement of our key competitor is the last straw. This is war!" he declared.
Before PM Lee's source code release, MYCS and SSS were neck to neck in the gaming market capacity, at 49.5% each. The last 1% is held by the Diablo2.SG. Last week MYCS's market capacity dived by a whopping 17.5% within just 5 days of PM Lee's online sharing, with defectors declaring that it is now "cooler to play Sudoku."
"We are extremely disappointed with PM Lee. This is going to turn ugly soon." warned a dejected member of the MYCS.
At press time, the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) was unable to comment on the possibility of PM Lee producing a source code for a Minesweeper solver to simmer the high tension between the MYCS and SSS.
