A 100,000 thanks…

Well, I’ve been extremely busy the past few months and have hardly had the time to blog/quiz etc.. This morning a friend mailed me congratulating me for a 100,000 hits on Quintessential Theory.. Well, doesn’t seem a very big number, but its not like I blog about sex or entertainment or world politics that I expect an overnight million hits.. Quizzing is a niche hobby and QT caters to a niche community… I’m equally proud to inform junta that Yash had reached this milestone almost a year back..

For me, the blogging has been as fantastic a journey as my quizzing.

In my 3 years of campus (and some corporate) quizzing, I’ve traveled, I’ve troubled and I’ve triumphed..

From tiffs with Quizmasters (nothing personal fellas) to being phlegmatic for a TV shot, quizzing has taught me a lot of things, but most importantly its shown me that passion is above all. It does NOT take much for people to complain about boring and tiring lives, but its difficult to take time out and try to pursue something you like to do..

And before my message gets despicable, I’ll wind up saying ‘Thank you to all those who’ve read Quintessential Theory and a bigger ‘Thank you to all those who revisited’

I’d also like to show a bit of gratitude to someone everyone knows in the quizzing scene.. Mr Avinash Mudaliar was the one who propounded (to me) the idea of starting a ‘Quiz Blog with a difference’ and I hope I’ve done justice to his great thoughts..

Till the next post.. Ta ra..

    Too bad you had stopped by the time we found this blog.

    Sursuri is (yet another) sport quiz blog, but we are slightly different in the way the quiz is programmed.

    Please do have a look, and the play the second quiz first.

    At the moment, we’re doing just cricket quizzes but would soon spread to other sports as well.

    If you would like to get associated with the blog, please let us know. We would love to have inputs from an old timer like yourself.

    Cheers.
