The 6th Annual Table Quiz event organised by the Management Club - TMC Wisdom 2011 is to be held at the Galle Face Hotel on Saturday 24th September.

As the Management Club continues receiving a steady flow of team registrations for the event, some of them ventured out for feedback and comments from participants at this Quiz over the last 5 years.
Here are comments received from two such quizzers.

I have been participating in quiz competitions for the past 6 years ever since we won the Peoples Bank inter branch quiz in 2005. In fact quizzing has now become my passion...It really has opened up new vistas.. .

As I told Ruwan recently he is the best quiz master I ever encountered and TMC's Wisdom Quiz has been the best quiz I ever participated in......It is my honest sentiments about this quiz...The questions are of high calibre and unlike some other quizzes, unless a team puts in some really hard work they cannot emerge worthy winners....In a nutshell only a team with brilliant quizzers can win the Wisdom Quiz ..that's the beauty...and to do so they must constantly be in touch with the happenings around the globe...
Mind you TMC wisdom Quiz has now become the National quiz in Sri Lanka....

Moreover distribution of books among the schools is a worthy cause which will ignite the passion of school children to continue participating..

I also like the manner and the seriousness in which the quiz is conducted....
Wisdom quiz is one of the eagerly awaited events in my quiz calender. I look forward to participating and being the champions this year....

May the TMC Wisdom Quiz move from strength to strength.....

B ) Lasith Gunawardena, a member of the team placed 4th in TMC Wisdom 2009 says.
Quote

"Participating in Quiz Competitions has been a regular pasttime of mine, ever-since I was at School.
Table Quizzes such as TMC Wisdom provides an opportunity to participate as a team, which is much more interesting than individual quizzing.

Having participated in table quizzes since the early 1990's, I find the standard and variety of questions offered at Wisdom to be the very best in Sri Lanka.

I'm sure that one of the secrets behind this has been the Compiler of Questions, Mr. Ruwan Senanayake - himself and ardent quizzer.

The atmosphere in which the quiz is conducted, enables us to have an enjoyable evening, while competing with the other teams!."

Lasith Gunawardena is a Senior Lecturer, at the Dept. of Information Technology, University of Sri Jayewardenepura.
