MY BLOG A FEW DAYS BACK:
IQL-The dawn of the dons..
Ya,You read it right.In the lines of ICL and IPL,how abot an IQL-Indian Quizzing League- where
1,Quiz teams from varios cities like Chennai,Bangalore,Mumbai,Coimbatore,Kolkata,Delhi,Pune,Hyderabad and Trivandrum,etc can quiz against each other to be called as the national quizzing champions.
2,Each team may be sponsored by their own city corporates like Landmark could sponsor Bangalore and Odyssey for Chennai.Sponsors obviously pay for everything including the prizes.
3,Each team may include 6 college students,4 school students,and six others [anyone other than college and school going} and a quiz master as their captain.
I have the minds only to think this far...Can anyone take off from here?
The logical qstns that artise will be-
1,How can it b completed-like an online event? or a month long fest where ppl actually meet?
2,Considering the "mass appeal" of quizzing how can we sell this idea to prospective sponsors and the general people?
But hopefully and eventually,we should find the right answers as we always do....
