With regards to ramping up the regionals, NTPC has done a great job, moving up to the next level with regard to content, presentation, research and quizmastering. This years regional rounds were way above what we all witnessed in the previous years and it also left a few of us wondering as to why the same team did not do the finals. Just a word of advice, a couple of the young breed quiz masters could do better by adding humour into their arsenal and hence enhancing presentation and doing justice to the strong content they have created. At the final round, NTPC again played the perfect host, providing great food and hospitality, and not to forget the prizes .

FMS Business Quiz: Review by a Delhi Correspondent

The FMS Fiesta Business Quiz was conducted by Mr.Avinash Mudaliar on 12th of December. The quiz was conducted in open air on the FMS lawns and in spite of the Delhi winter, teams enthusiastically huddled up around the stage for the quiz. The quiz was open and mixed teams were also encouraged. The quiz saw quite a large participation from college students and corporates in Delhi.

With all the usual suspects turning up, the team of Rohan Khanna (Accenture) and Mitesh (Sun Microsystems) emerged as the winners.It was great to see the college teams put up a real good fight cracking some rockets. Both the FMS and the team from DCE cracked some phenomenal questions on the pass. NSIT, Dr.Bhattacharya and team made their presence felt from the audience, just missing out in the prelims.

Avinash Mudaliar was in his  usual affable element with his jokes and wise cracks sparing none.The three hour quizzing marathon aptly ended with a stage two paying homage the King of Pop, ‘Micheal Jackson” and with Avinash Mudaliar’s final words on stage being – “This is it”! Roerich from Hansraj (yes, named after the famous painter) was the only one to crack the stage – 2.

CEG, Anna University in the first of its kind , hosted K! Business Quiz for Students in Bangalore. The Hyderabad leg is believed to follow soon. The winners of both the editions will join the top 6 teams in the Chennai round on 22/23 Jan at Kurukshetra ’10.

With a fairly decent mix of questions which varied from old chestnuts to well researched content, the prelim consisted of 25 questions and a sweet 30 question final + theme round followed.

Christ University represented by Abhinav and Anirudh won the quiz beating Varun Balan (NITK) and Balram (BMSCE) by a whisker.
