Crucible 2011: Ahmedabad Corporate Round
Fairly low turnout (in comparison of campus quiz) about
50 odd teams with regulars like Triton and Thermax visiting.
My bad luck was not able to participate due to lack of
partner!
The regulars from Triton made a good lead in first two
rounds which ensured there victory regardless of some good catch-up by other
teams
Results:
Winners:
Triton Group: The veterans Mahesh Manjawala & Mayur Rana (Score:40)
First
Runner up: Thermax group (Score: 30)
Second
Runner up: Soubhagya and Anirban from R&B (Score: 25)
