in the next 15-20 mins (Give us some time to compile the results yaar :D )
Moderators !!
Please start with some solid hint for MS 10 ..
@ All Teams
A small concern which I think everybody should know about. (and comment if you want)
Towards the end questions in Parikrama when we checked the logs of the teams, we found that the answers of a bunch of the teams from the same college are mere seconds away from each other, as if they are sitting in the same room and passing on the answers to one another. Guys we do appreciate teamwork but do you think its fair to the other teams participating in the event. Agreed that you have put in effort to solve your way through the quiz but so did the other teams.
And it was because of this observation that we refrained from posting the leader board on the blog.
Otherwise why do you think we would refrain from putting up the most exciting part of any quiz - both for the organisers and the players
'The Leaderboards'
Team Xsys
@team xsys :- atleast give the hints for 28 , 29, nd 30 so tht we can solve out the questions...nd sleep peacefully...thnx alot
Yeah ... was just going to upload that
Even we need a good night sleep dude ...
@ Milestone 27 (actual question not the surprise question - yeah there are two)
Its a sitter ... literally
I would better go up in fumes than give another hint
@aristrocrat - dont u think u took the wrong route?
@Milestone 28
Only the last question is sufficient as a clue (if you have got that one)
And I am saying use the question as a clue - they both are connected
TEAM XSYS
u need to consider this as well that due to negeligence of the organising team..
the team were stuck at questions where almost all participant came to leavin, no edge for ppl who did it faster then the others...
and hence gettin back everybody to a same position to compete from...
so what do u say should be don abt that....
do u plan 2 publish the list???
@Team XSYS
When r u people going to declare the Results ?? Our team solved it very early :) But after that most of the teams finished the game too:) So please declare the results and HALL of Fame so that we can have a good night's sleep now :)
AT MOD UNCLE BUT I PLAYED INDEPENDENTLY DUDE CUZ I AM THE ONLY ONE PLAYING FROM MY COLLEGE...I KNOW U ARE RIGHT..BUT OBV U CAN MAKE A LEADERBRD SHOWING TEAM NAMES...WHO WUD KNW WHO IS PARIKRAMA 115 ...OR 116...and penalize them whoz ans have been submitted in very short intervals and are from same college.
@ Aks
But still, teams moving past all the other teams who were also stuck, just because their friends helped them out is it justified ?
We do agree about the downtime on the part of Parikrama team, it could have been informed to the teams beforehand with some clues to the questions to come.
@Studlaunda
But the teams competing together (which was our concern in the first place) would have known how many teams are above them or below them so that they can ensure they move up in the leaderboard.
Believe me these teams at a point covered the entire leaderboard and didn't move at all.
And again if you are on top and you know you have cracked the question you can always tell the person next to you the answer and grab the top spots.
@Team Xsys
It was really a great experience to play the game :) Now can u please publish the results :) Can't wait to see my name there :)
u know when ppl started,....
u have blog entry which show who were actually trying.....and since when ppl are tryin the questions out...
so club it for top 10... and u will know what to do
secondly ppl from same college may not be completely just... can be coincident....
check time stamps for top 10..... if majority questions have this problem or the questions are solved within seconds... then simple " disqualify"
but u need to consider ppl like us who were on questions for hours... and we jst lost that edge over others...
strike a balance....
obviously end decision lies with u and nobody can question that
so dude ball is in ur court... take a call..... :-)
@ Aks
Yeah I understand
And i think we were lucky that Anand, Parag (Team 100) and Tony, Vikas (Team 98) were active and got through the questions before the other teams and that too by a good margin.
But the group of teams in question are extremely close .. within seconds of each other, not even minutes - seconds
By the way the results have been declared

Well played guys , congratulations to you all ...
