BT Acumen South Zone Finals 2006
8 guys incl. yours truly made it thru a solo prelims to be randomly paired up for the finals.
There was some drama before all this happened. Anish Raju (my teammate) and Biswajit, two of Chennai's seasoned business quizzers almost missed the prelims! Anish stormed into the room where prelims was being held and thought that I was one of the organizers, since I was holding a sheet of paper (I was actually submitting mine when he walked in!) This resulted in some hilarious confusion and him generally taking off on me. I returned some of it calmly and told him that I was not one of the organizers!
Anyways, had fun and we came 4th in the finals. Anish was unperturbed by our steady downslide in the finals and we had a ball, even hitting zero score, somewhere during the finals!
Good quiz set mostly by Anustup Dutta. Well handled by Harsha Bhogle. Well Won by Biswajit and Prasad Shetty (who has apparently won the last 2 editions as well).
We got some Van Heusen vouchers for the petrol spent in getting to IIMB. And of course, yet another T-Shirt to the collection.
