A Quiz you can work out

We have something of a Quiz Club here at IIT-Kgp, where some of us who are interested in the art meet once a week to... well, quiz. Of the few regular attendees, usually two or three would bring their own questions and quiz the rest.

Having attended the club for a year now, I finally "collaborated" with a batchmate here, Varun Singh, and we came up with our own set of questions, "Don't Ask, Don't Tell", that was presented at last Thursday's meeting. We have tried to ensure there are as many "workoutable" questions as possible.

I have attached the quiz below, or rather embedded it into my post using slideshare. There are, in total, 28 workoutable questions, with the question number given at the top left corner of the slides. I recommend you to forward through each of the slides at your own pace using the forward and back buttons (next to play), or use the fullscreen mode (Doesn't take much time to load). In case it doesn't load the first time, just refresh once.

I am not giving the answers now, and would encourage you to try the Quiz on your own, and leave your answers as comments here. Whether you're a regular quizzer or not, the answers are very easy to work out, and you should definitely give it a try. Just leave a comment with as many answers as you can work out, and do leave a name or moniker. I strongly suggest you to make a guess for each and every question, even if it's very silly or weird (that's how usually the correct answers are). As someone said, the dirtiest word you can utter at a quiz is "Pass!" (A couple of questions here are dirtier still, mind you!! ;) )

Most of the questions are Google-able, which means they may be cracked very easily by Googling. The questions are'nt all original as well, but some reproduced from previous quizzes we've seen over time. Some are, of course, very new. Since the quiz was not made to be given online, I'd suggest you to try it out without help from Wiki/Google. You may still use the online resources, but stay beware of the Karma police then.

I don't expect many to respond to the quiz. In any case, the answers as well as the scores (of those who do answer, if any) will be put up on the coming Thursday, that is, the 9th of April 2009, so you have till Wednesday 11:59 pm to answer. Do come back to check it out; it's a fun quiz, and you'll love the answers.
