Does anybody feel that the biggest winner of the whole ordeal at Suntec Doujin Market 2026 is Amos Yee?

Amos Yee clearly went there to look for attention and create content, no matter how negative it was. He posted ragebait materials online before and when he was at the place.

And then he got jumped. That was probably way more than whatever online sensation he expected. Getting jumped is not something that happens everyday here. He gets to farm more engagement by posting more content and experience about this. And he got all these just at a cost of a busted lip.

Meanwhile the biggest loser in this whole ordeal is that cosplayer's mom, followed by that cosplayer. She must have worked so hard to attain PR for herself and her son. All that just for her son to potentially lose it before he can serve NS and get his citizenship (if that was her end goal). Even if she doesn't want citizenship for her son, the fact that her son might lose PR means either they will have to live apart, or she might have to change jobs and move back to her home country.

And the cosplayer ruined his future too. Good chance that even if he wanted to be a professional cosplayer in the future, not many events in the future will want to officially partner with him as he is gonna be a convicted adult. Not to mention, one of his charges will be voluntarily causing hurt, which can be seen as a violent crime. And also that there is no gag order for this case, meaning anyone Googling his name can see his court case.

Amos Yee baited him into getting a jail sentence, and then potentially losing his PR. So at the end of the day, Amos Yee got that cosplayer into deeper legal shit than Amos got himself into, if you only count the fact that both Amos and this cosplayer will going to jail but only one of them will be potentially losing his PR status.

Also, this cosplayer is gonna be soft capped by whatever future jobs he is gonna be applying to by his criminal record since he will be getting one as he was already 18. There are a lot of companies that will not accept someone with a criminal record, no matter how morally justifiable it is (I'm not saying beating up Amos Yee is morally right, but morals is an arbitrary thing, so some might see it as justifiable).

While taking my finals, I didn't managed to write my candidate number, module code and the date on the last few pages of my answer sheets. However on those pages, I did shade the question code and fill in the question number and part. What are the chances it will get marked and included in my score?

Feeling real shitty now because that mod was a hard mod that I prepared really hard for it and I was sure I could pass, provided that all my answers got marked and included in my score. Now, I am not so sure.

For those curious why I didn't manage to write those down, long story short: I thought I had more time to do it. I took UOL exams last year and during the last 30 min of them, they allowed us to shade question code, fill in candidate no., etc. Basically all the other miscellaneous stuff except writing down answers...

I received a nasty surprise when the head invigilator (I assume she was since she was the one mostly giving announcements) just snatched my paper away during those 30 mins, told me off and nagged at me in an abrasive manner like I was inconveniencing her, and shot me a look like I killed her whole family. I don't know why she gonna act like she is the one losing those marks instead me. I didn't know I am paying an examination fee to get nagged and stared at like I was the foulest rubbish someone smelled.

Edit: Should I send a formal complaint about her? It feels really unprofessional of her to be kicking someone who's already down.
