World Quizzing Championship 2012

For those who've gotten cuckoo about written quizzes after Mahaquizzer last Sunday, here's another one. We will be conducting the Mumbai leg of the World quizzing championship 2012 (homepage) on 2nd June, parallely with 84 other cities in 34 countries.

The quiz will consist of 2 sections of 120 questions each. 60 minutes will be available for attempting each section.

The Quiz is open to anyone who wants to give it a shot, but extrapolating from the attendance in the previous years, we have arranged for 35 question papers, which will be handed out on a first-come-first-serve basis. Its a fairly long quiz so we aim at starting on time. So all you need to be is alert, on time and with a pen.

For those who are still missing the action, the good news is that we begin our regular pow-wows from this Sunday.

Providing more than adequate consolation will be old hand Pravin Varma, who has set a prolific and an amply long quiz, to keep keep everybody interested.
