The Literature Quiz, as the name implies, is meant to cover topics related to published works of prose and poetry, including fiction, non-fiction and graphic novels, and some aspects of language, such as etymology and the history of words. The quiz will cover writings in a variety of languages and from all parts of the world.
The quiz will consist of a written elimination round followed by a final round for the top six teams in the elimination round. Expect a multimedia-rich quiz, with lots of audio and video clips along with regular plain-text questions. Rules and registration:
Open to All. No prior registration required. However, participants must come in teams of two each. Participants must bring pens/pencils and preferably, a hard board or something to write on (desks may not be available)
The Bombay Quiz Club was founded by a group of avid quizzers who thought the epidemic of business quizzes in Bombay was too much to handle. Every other Sunday, the quizzing faithful come together in the offices of Pinstorm in Santacruz (W) to quiz in an informal, yet intensely competitive atmosphere. The BQC (not to be confused with the TV show) has some of the elite quizzers in the country.
Sumant has been a successful quizzer and quizmaster for several years, and has participated and hosted quizzes all over the country.
