Summer of Quiz 2010Comics and Cartoons Quiz
General RulesThe QM is always right, unless conclusively proven to be wrong!
Since the QM stinks at math, all scores will be multiples of 5 or 10
Since the QM suffers from “Answer-Jaldi-De” syndrome, time limit for every question will ideally be 7 secs. In some rounds, it may be higher at 12-15 secs
In certain cases, a clue may be included with the question, and the question passed around once again.
The entire quiz shall function on the “bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce-bounce……………………………………………” format
QM is NOT responsible for post-quiz trauma (if any)
NOTE
In the quiz, some questions had hints that were provided only after the question was unanswered by all teams.
