Scholars and their Folly
I was in a foul mood when i stumbled upon the website of this competition about a couple of months back... I cant really recollect the reason why but i was pretty pissed off. Then came this barage of questions some of which seemed shamefully simple and some were abyssimally dificult. Clicking at will I completed it the first time in about 34 minutes or so ...and then i saw that i was allowed to give thrice in the next 24 hours ... I decided to try my luck and ventured into the sme co-ordinates of cyber-space ..... what came next left me speechless ..exactly the same questions with their order changed....!!!!
So this time I used the mouse as a rail gun firing off answers at break neck speed..and whoosh i completed it in less than four minutes..and that after taking half a minute for the communication latency between my pc and the server !
The next round was a bit of surprise ..although i knew this was a reality show i didnt think that they would film this round too. But that was proved wrong no sooner than i entered the registration area ... Huge placards or display boards proclaimed the sponsors as well as the Cardiff university was showcasing their finest mugshots ....lol. Of course i wasnt prepared for my first television appearance.... I was this scrawny chum with stubble growing like moss ver my face ... i wont be surprised if the eyes roll off my presence in the show.
For anything else that you might want to know ... catch the show on NDTV but i dont know when ...keep checking the comments if any ...for the dates ...!!
This place is the only home to my exceptional thoughts, where they shine in glory without the fear of plagiarism.
