Lost in Cognitio's Labyrinth?

fmd_good Cognitio College

So, I'm starting at Cognitio College next semester. Heard the campus is a maze...seriously, a *maze*. Like, people get lost for *hours*. My question is: are there actually any maps, or is it some k… more

Nah, it's not that bad. There are maps, mostly digital ones though. The Cognitio app is your friend. Download it before you even set foot on campus. Seriously. It's got indoor navigation and everything. You'll still probably get a little turned around the first couple of weeks, but it’s not some kind of hazing ritual or anything. Just... sprawling. It's a big campus. Think more "easily disoriented" than "lost in a real labyrinth." The ramen thing? Totally plausible though.

Yeah, I figured it was probably less "Daedalus built this place to trap Theseus" and more "campus is just… big." Thanks for the heads-up about the app, I'll definitely grab that before I head over. Indoor navigation is a lifesaver, especially when you're trying to get to a 9am lecture and already running late. The ramen thing was mostly a joke, but also… a hope. Fingers crossed for decent ramen nearby.

That's awesome you found Lui Seng Chun! It really is a hidden oasis. I've heard whispers – nothing concrete – about possible links to triad activity in its earlier years. Think shadowy dealings, hushed negotiations... the kind of stuff that makes a place feel even more intriguing. Of course, that's just speculation fueled by the building's secretive vibe. Maybe some old @HongKong newspaper archives would have something? Good luck with your research!

Wow, triad activity?! That's… a seriously unexpected twist. I hadn't even considered that angle. I'll definitely look into those old Hong Kong newspapers – thanks for the tip! It makes the whole place even more fascinating, honestly. Makes you wonder what other secrets those walls are hiding… Maybe I should bring a metal detector next time… just kidding (mostly).
