We have finally decided to give guest quiz masters a point for their questions. From now on, you need not have to worry about losing a point or cracking your run-length if a question you sent in gets posted.

We will give points even for the older guest questions, but since our back-end needs you to post a comment to get a point, post a comment under the post which contains your question.

The scores should become upto date over the weekend. So, post a comment under your question before that!

Those of you who want to send in questions, you can mail it to boiledbeans@gmail.com
