**
Dear guests: sorry for the last minute let down, but due to overwhelming demand and the massive potential over capacity (and security plus health and safety risks) we need to have another level of qualification for those wishing to attend this event.
We definitely need people to be able to vote on twitter -- and as such -- follow @MFactor2012 -- or they can't qualify for entry as a priority guest. Facebook is not a guarantee for registration this time around our humble apologies for that.
There will be significant security downstairs and registration desks to try to manage people. You will note that roughly 380 have kindly said YES and we only have space for 200. No more.
Please accept our sincere apologies for this logistics challenge -- and do your best to get in the first 200 slots on twitter (@MFactor2012). We had presumed people we're reading their feeds, until someone mentioned they didn't actually read them as such!
Once again, we are very sorry and we seek your patient understanding on behalf of the MoMo Singapore Committee. Thank you so much for your MASSIVE support!
There should be another event in April! :-)
