She's Done and She's Big

Folks

The Midnight quiz is officially done now and since Swapnil stated in his mail that it could contain any number of questions and since some of us wanted a marathon, I was tempted into adding 12 questions bringing the total to 54, including 16 connects (of which 2 are long connects). Overall it looks very balanced, if a tad skewed in favor of entertainment and etymology.

That should be enough to keep going well into the night, subject to abrupt termination in case anyone feels sleepy though I sincerely hope that no one does.

  3. And, don't worry about sleepy participants -- if you want, we can impose sanctions (in some form) on leaving/sleeping before the quiz is over :D

  4. Sanctions sound good...I thought initially that might be harsh, but right now it looks like a good idea

  5. or, to be more "democratic", we can form teams based on who doesn't plan to be there for the entire quiz etc.

  8. The Jackal - a short slightly stocky gentleman with black hair who is most probably Indian, though his nationality cannot be verified,capable of smuggling samosas from IGSA events to midnight quizzes.
