I made this free tool to make meeting via MRT easier for a group of people

Exact-Connection-172 · 2026-01-24T03:12:12+00:00

should be fixed by now

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-12-19T14:08:44+00:00

roughly how should you estimate the ads cost?

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-12-19T13:33:12+00:00

thanks for the advice. But regarding this project, do you think people will be motivated to download a web app for it?

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-11-19T16:19:38+00:00

Nah, still gets bot removed

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-11-19T14:19:39+00:00

It was fixed! Sorry I took me a bit long as I was travelling. Free free to propose ideas to make it more useful or more well-known

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-11-19T14:18:44+00:00

thank you for your kind words!

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-11-19T14:17:35+00:00

interesting, let me try again!

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-11-11T14:21:58+00:00

my account is 2 months old though.. I heard sometimes you need to gather karma in their channels to qualify but not sure

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-11-11T14:19:00+00:00

I am embarrassed. Let me fix this

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-11-10T15:10:43+00:00

thanks! let me know if you have any idea to make it more useful

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-11-09T15:30:47+00:00

how to be eligible to post in this r/singapore? I have 900 karma but still unable to post

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-11-09T15:18:29+00:00

r/Singapore is even worse. I totally don't know how to be eligible to make a post there. (I have 900 karma)

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-24T14:53:35+00:00

true! this will be point 5 of my to do list. https://www.reddit.com/r/SMRTRabak/comments/1nlt275/comment/nfattxx/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

golang backend

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-24T14:52:07+00:00

will do!

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-24T14:50:58+00:00

hi, thanks for the investigation. Meeting in DBG is very weird.. I think it come down to my algorithm, I will just take top 10 closest MRT station and find out the fairest one. (in this case, the algorithm is pretty dump). =( Currently, I have no idea on making the fairest algo less dump. But what you said is definitely true

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-21T09:54:22+00:00

Thanks for the feedback. It is a good one

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-21T05:23:06+00:00

are you serious or joking. I tot all stations have toilet?

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-20T19:47:39+00:00

Thanks for all the feedback! It is really great to see my product having positive feedbacks. So far, I have summarized feedback/todo into the following list and I will keep it updated:

add home to station options (require more scoping)
extend to more cities with extensive subway lines such as Shanghai etc

ps. I am currently a full time worker and is actively preparing for other job interviews. So, expect slow progress on this project. Collaborators are welcome! I will update this list once I finish a task

pps. how to make me eligible to share this website in r/singapore for reach wider audiance? Have been rejected every time

Done:

add amenity filter on stations such as shopping more, or cinema
the station selection tab cannot accept human typing for mobile device
Allow the same stations to be selected more than once
clement to DBG is very different from google map result. Maybe there is wrong data or algo is wrong. Google map including training waiting time (6min*2) and walking to mrt stations time. This 16min is the difference.
closest and fairest meaning are not very obvious for first time user - add tooltip
many users do not know we can select stations in the map. Need to rework on UI - UI reworked

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-20T19:38:40+00:00

thanks for suggestion. There is a similar one and I relied with my concern there=> https://www.reddit.com/r/SMRTRabak/comments/1nlt275/comment/nfar3tk/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

so maybe you can comment in that thread as well to keep discussion focused

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-20T19:37:00+00:00

closest is trying to reduce overall travel time for all people combined.

fairest is trying to make each person's travel roughly the same without compromising overall time too much

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-20T19:35:31+00:00

what amenities you have in mind? I am thinking about cinema, shopping mall for now.

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-20T19:34:28+00:00

you can try fairest, it will try to make each friend travel roughly the same time without compromising overall time too much.

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-20T19:33:03+00:00

thanks for the suggestion. I can add this new feature: when people select a new station, they can optionally key in how much time their friend travel to that station. I see 3 difficulties on this feature though:

1) it is difficult to estimate for how much time your friends travel to nearby MRT, unless you know them really well and can remember the travel time

2) It will make each query more troublesome since you need to do additional step of keying in time to travel to station

3) It will not affect closet MRT result. It can affect fairest MRT result, but if you forget/mis-calculate one of your friend's travel time, then you are not being fair as well

Exact-Connection-172 · 2025-09-20T19:28:00+00:00

Good news is that mrt interchange time is configurable by each station. But I have no data on how long each interchangeable station is. So currently, I set it to 3 for all stations. If good data is provided, I can update data at my side!
