• NEXT BIG SHOTS

    ABOUT:

    In today’s ruthless market where the biggest risk is not taking any risk, an entrepreneur has to be calculative and analytical of both the market situations and his own teams’ capabilities. In the same spirit we will be simulating a market where there are 18 competitors trying to earn as much money as they can. At the start of the game the 18 teams would be given some amount of money. There will be a series of bids, projects and quizzes where they the teams will be given a chance to earn more money, while calculating the risks involved. After completing 3 rounds the team(company) having the maximum amount of money will win.

    Date: 19th Feb, 2020

    No. of Participants per group: 04

    RULES:

    1. Each of the teams will be given 500 Etheriums(our own currency).

    2. The first round will be a quiz round. There will be 30 questions per room which will be divided into sets of 9, 9, and 12. A correct answer will be rewarded with 10Etheriums.

    3. The first set of 9 questions will be a buzzer round and the questions will be based on current trends in tech and history of tech.

    4. The set round will have 9 questions based on the knowledge of Computer science’s core concepts.

    5. The third set of 12 questions will test a bit of their programming skills, where snippets of code will be shown and the questions will involve analysis of those snippets(Like Finding errors, predicting outputs etc.).

    6. The second round will be all about rush coding, a form of competitive programming. A jar containing 45 chits, will be placed in the room. The teams will pick chit by paying 50Etheriums. which will have a link to a problem statement, by successfully solving that problem the team will earn 100 Etheriums.

    7. After a successful submission the team can take another problem from the Jar. The round will end after 45 mins.

    8. The third and the final round, a booklet containing 14 questions will be passed to the teams.10 Mins will be given to analyse problems. There would be 3 categories of questions:

    9. After analysing the problems the bids will start. Each question will be flashed on the projectors, and bidding will start based on the starting bids. The highest bidder will be given the problem. After the bidding is completed, the coding phase will begin.
