the quizing voyage.......

in last 3 days we(me n ankit) have attended two quizes. 1st one is general quiz at jecrc renaissance'09 and other one is bquiz at gyanvihar university management fest '09.

so i begin with quiz @jecrc.the prelims was on 19th march. there were almost 20-30 teams present for the prelims of generel quiz.we are expecting a good lavel from the organizers of tht quiz. b'coz i knew the event manager of that quiz ayush personally. he is a quite sensible person. but as soon as we went through the prelim's paper tht was a disappointing one for me. there are hardly a questions on business and politics. also i don't know why they are quite fascinated with literature questions. around 6-7 question s were directly or indirectly based on the literature in the prelims
and i don't know how many in the final of the event (even the whole 3 tie breaker questions for the second place belongs to only literature).but anyhow we managed to book a ticket for finals(initially there were semifinal also but later it was scrapped). in finals there were five teams.
first team was team from mnit(probably the best quizzing team in jaipur....we are the poor rivals of them nearly every quiz since feb. lol) two teams from jecrc and a one team from some college of gurgaon.
the final was so messed up with everything tht i hav'nt seen any quiz of tht kind. i mean there were almost 8-10 guys who were operating the whole operations but still everything was poorly managed(n tht reminds me the general quiz at mnit in this feb. where only two persons aviral and anuraag ,the guys of mnit team, managed the whole final quite remarkably). anyway we didn't get a good start since questions in the first round was out of the world for both of us.mostly literature n what kind of lit. questions was tht even we didn't heard the name of books lol. we were at big zero after the complition of two rounds. as usually team mnit has cracked these rounds and they were at 80-90 after these rounds(i was scoring each n every question). n more surprisingly a team from jecrc has done prodigious job. they had given a few very good answers. they were at fifty or 40.
(i would like to remind u guys here not a single question based on business or entertainment was asked till yet). so we were quite disappointed with the level of quiz. then the final round came(the pic connecting round). since we are really good at connections. so we are fully dependent on this round. and also this round gone according to our expectation. we had accelered our score from 20 to 60. n we got the tie situation according to our scoring with jecrc team but the official scorer has diff. scores with jecrc team on 2nd pos. and we are on 3rd. then i had dispute with the organizer on the scores and after lil hardwork finally i got succed to convince them the score was 60-60.but unfortunate kept following us in tiebreaker too. and we lost to them on a litereatue question once again. i m not going to forget this quiz for long time.

the second quiz was biz quiz @gyan vihar university in their management fest. we got selected in the final round along with amity jaipur,jaipuria,mahrshi arvind and IIIM teams. final was very well structured. i should say one of the most structured quiz i have faced . i would rate this quiz just after the general quiz @mnit .since it was bquiz so me n ankit was expecting a better performance in the final and that went accordingly.after two rounds we were leading with IIIM with 120 points . then in third round they took a lead of 25 points . but in final round as we have done in all quizes(we r really good in final round) we won the quiz with clear lead of around 40 points. IIIM was the runner-up.they were really very good. a little fortune was also with us(we lost few quizes just b'coz of luck factor).
But if there were a passing in all rounds then we would surely win by huge gap. we had done really a good job.overall quiz was really good so was the organizer.
i guess i have extended this post a lil further. so i end it here in hope of our consistency in quizes.

tough time

i am having a tough time again. my result of fourth sem. is out. and it was a major setback in my academic performance. i don't know why i am so reluctant with study after my class 1oth.i am not having a inch of interest in my core subject electronics and communication.it's nearly 24 hours later after the terrifying result,i am delivering this post.
probably i am sort of person with lack of determination. i usually start things in a convincing manner but as the time passes the result is always drastic.this time i need to take something change in myself. otherwise i'll be in big trouble.
i don't why can't i considered reading academics books as of primal priority.i have always given the surrounding knowledge the first priority. now this is the time i need to be understand life is the art of balancing the stuffs.
i am not frustrated this time but this is time to really have some changes.
with a positive approach i rest this post here.

the origin...

I am happy that finally i came up with a blog, through which i can share my views on particular issues or certain aspects of my life(thnx 2 mr. nandlal who has finally given me a net connect.)
i wanted to start this blog in feb. because i strongly believe feb. is somewhere lucky for me.
but unfortunately i couldn't.
may be because of my procrastination or the whole credit should
go to nandlal(the cafe owner near my house). what a person he is . if i am going to write a book
in near future then certainly he would be there thats among one of the things on which i am 100%
sure.
since it's begining of my blog so i shoudn't start with derisive criticism. I have a great intrest to know about different person. i mean i really enjoys to observe people.
i am having my mid term exams on 7th thnx to my gr8 college(my college is a very innovative in this field)we'll be having exams on 7th then 13th and 14th. see how caringis my college so that no student could enjoy these "holi" vacation.and i have a bit concern because we have a plan to go to indore for some reason.

i am almost done with this post and with my college too(only 3 sems are remaining)
again i am really happy coz finally i m delievering my first post.
so i end it up here with accenture punch line "high performance, delievered".
