Dr. Bhatta

After Mitesh (2008) and JR(2010), Bhatta joins the list of guest QMs at the BQC. Kutub Quizzer's Dr. Bhatta has done some wonderful quizzes in the past and we're hoping for more of the same this Sunday.

Quizmaster: Dr. S Bhatta

When: 3 PM, Sunday, 21st August, 2011 (Please be there by 2:45 PM for team assignments)

Where: Pinstorm, Ground Floor, Swati House (Next to Kotak Bank on Linking Road), North Avenue, Santa Cruz (W)

Directions: here

Newcomers are welcome at BQC quizzes, and do not need to form teams before coming. Teams are normally formed by a draw of lots at the venue itself, and everybody gets to take part. The questions are generally not the boring "you-know-it-or-you-don't" types, but accessible and workoutable ones.

Debonair - India Edition

They call him the BQC’s answer to the KQA yearbooks. Anannya Deb has compiled more quizzes than most quizmasters have framed questions. We thought we’d pull a fast one on this sports and gen guru by asking him to put together a themed India quiz in a very short time. And the answer is all set to smack us in the face in three days time. Be ready to be quizzed about almost anything India; from the time of the Mehrgarh settlements in the Indus valley, to the now 63 years and 51 weeks old modern nation.

If you want to win, we suggest you set up camp for 3 days in the India section of Landmark, and then crush a pill into Vibhendu’s lunch before coming.

Aditya Gadre

After a hectic 3 day quizzing weekend in Bangalore, the BQC resumes normal service this weekend. Table Topper Aditya Gadre (who recently defected from the BCQC to join us) will be Quizmaster . There's a small issue of a Wimbledon Final in the evening so it would be great if we started on time.
