Got ganked from the flanks by BITS Pilani!!

Today we had went to attend a quiz called Inquizitive (the name is being copied by everyone everywhere!!! the original inquizitive was the ultra-super quiz organized by Hindustan Times..hosted by Siddharth Basu)...The organizers were very enthusiastic...i really appreciate the fact they read this blog and i shall not hurl abuses at them for wasting so much time in setting up the projector and also their audi sucked and there werent any tables on the stage; because they mite read be reading this post this very moment... :)

On serious note the UIET guys did a fantastic job in getting the Kutub Quizzers to Chandigarh....
was a really gud quiz..in fact the quality of questions was really superb. Kutub Quizzers again proving tht they r a superb organization...after a long time we had attended such a quality quiz....

Had it been a three member quiz...it wud have been better...coz again Ashu was left with no team-mate...I feel really sad at the fact tht Ashu had to attend the quiz again with very little chance of qualification...mayb nxt time onwards we shud do a rotation policy like the Aussies....

The prelims were really gud and me&Udit topped in the prelims...none of the othr teams from TQC could make it...they just missed by a whisker....thr wer two teams from BITS Pilani on the stage....they mite hav thought they wud easily win in Chandigarh but they didnt realize tht teams from Thapar were formidable. we gave them a gud fight but we finished third behind the two BITS Teams by just 10 points...

Being the first team to qualify we wer given the choice to choose any seat on the stage..we took the 2nd one. The two BITS teams surrounded us..(was tht planned ;) ) ...and hence it was very difficult to get the pass questions from either side coz the BITS guys wud answer them correctly...they were imba gud teams and deserved to win...however had we been sitting next to one of the Chandigarh teams...things mite have been different!!!

I shall put up some of the questions in subsequent posts...
