Rules
- Any registered wikipedian can answer a quiz question, but to ask a question you must first earn the right by being the first person to answer the previous one correctly. If the current question is still open and you think you know the answer, post your answer below and wait for an adjudication from the person who placed the question. Remember to sign your post with ~~~~.
- If you are the first person to post the correct answer, the asker will post a message below your answer confirming you gave the correct response.
- You now have the baton and 24 hours to post a new question. If a new question is not posted by you within that time limit, the asker can post a new question in lieu of yourself.
- When 25 questions have been asked, a round is over. The leader on the answer tally at the end of each round is declared the winner of the round. The questions asked during the round are archived.
- The leader-tally then resets with all users back to zero to begin the next round, with the user that answered the last question of the previous round asking the first question of the present round.
Question guidelines
- If you're finding no-one can get the answer to your question, consider offering clues or replacing your question with an easier one. The aim is to keep the quiz moving.
- Remember that you may have an international audience. Keep quiz questions relevant to India in some way.
