BCQC folks - let's learn to abide by the QM's decision - fair or unfair.

And let's learn to accept D&P as an alternate way of quizzing. ;)

I'm not sure what happened on the day, but it makes me uncomfortable that many of these murmurs of bad behaviour are heard each time a quiz is held. We have our pet theories on how quizzes should be done, but a little politeness is nice to have, especially in quizzes organised by inexperienced people. If you don't like such quizzes, stay away. Or try to reason with the organisers later, and politely. But let's not impose a particular dogma on anyone. Especially when most of us (self particularly included!) are incapable of doing perfect quizzes. D&P sucks but learn to live with it, especially when on someone else's turf.

I think we seriously need to address the issue. Being BCQC members doesn't give us the moral high ground over everybody else. And it's okay to grumble if the organisers have been rude, but that wasn't the case at Srujan. The guys there were really helpful and played the elims questions again after we arrived late. They even accepted our version of scores during the finals. So I guess during such quizzes we shouldn't be rude just because they aren't doing what we call our brand of quizzing.
And yes, I know D&P sucks, but IR wasn't exactly made in heaven. So lets please stop complaining whenever we come across D & P.
