Yeah, that is right. I spent hours on wekipedia, not just for the contest but reading other great background stories. Very interesting.

Same with me. Lots of hours googling and Wikipedia. The question about who is the eldest amongst those fighting in the battle of Kurukshetra was interesting.
Although the apparent answer was Bheesma, the correct answer happened to be Bahlika. And I found out the reason. Santanu was Bhisma's father - he did not participate in the battle. So he is out. And Bahlika happens to be Santanu's brother - so he must be older than Bhisma. It took me quite a while to dig out this fact.

Hi Friends,

Thanks for participating in the balloon contest.

The contest is being put on HOLD till we recalculate all the balloons of all the contestants.

Whoever reached the ZERO level first with no balloons to answer will be the winner.

BTW, we will also be checking if any shortcuts have been taken to achieve the same.

Members below 20 posts automatically gets disqualified and any wrong answers coming from new members will not be counted.

We will be Back with the latest figures as I am also interested in knowing who really won the contest 😃

Cheers,
Vijay

P.S. BTW yaar why you all thrown so many balloons on me that my total balloon count have reached 420 😆..

Ohh Thank god just checked its 422 😉

Yes, they had one balloon left because that one balloon was stuck for more than 24 hours. It was pending, couldn't be reclaimed - just lost - or maybe a glitch?
