Forget any level of engagement by him , I could find him smiling only once . That includes both prelims and finals .Bela Lugosinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6301203.post-64436529948202067022015-10-11T19:44:15.503+05:302015-10-11T19:44:15.503+05:30Debatable, considering two of the finalist teams i...Debatable, considering two of the finalist teams in this quiz were made of college participants.

Very few sports questions, for example. But still, better to ask good questions on topics you are comfortable with, than ask mediocre questions for quota's sake.<br /><br /><br />I think the quiz was better than what many people were expecting, purely because I think few of us have attended a quiz set & hosted by Chinmay before, and that contributed to the under-rating of the quiz in its build-up. <br /><br />J Ramanandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03700969855424872769noreply@blogger.com
