Hi,
As KBC kicks off on Star Plus today, let me start our own version of the same - KBG (Kaun Banega GD-Pati)!
Yes, an 'Online GD Contest' that could fetch you interesting prizes! This is just a way to take forward the initiative taken by Ronak!
Every two days, a topic will be given to you! You need to respond to the thread by giving your views on the topic...
Rules of the game:
1. You need to give your views only in bullet points, a maximum of 3 points and not exceeding 100 words in all (All bullets put together)!! The idea of an online GD is only to gather different perspectives and viewpoints on a particular topic and not display our communication skills! So, no long mails that no one would be interested in reading!
For example, if the topic is: "It's time we treat all Indian cricketers like Ganguly", your contribution may be:
(1) Carrot v/s Stick! McGregor's Theory X and Y of motivation! Theory X states that an authitarian style of Management (based on threat of punishment) will motivate employees.
(2) National pride at stake. No one can take his place in the team for granted.
(3) Regional quota based sytem of selection should change.
The point system is as follows:
1. You get 1 point for every 'original' idea that you contribute!
2. Repeatition of any idea (in the same form or some other form) will not fetch you any points. :(
3. If you repeat any point given by others (in the same form or some other form), you lose 1 mark. :mad: Hence it makes sense to respond as early as possible. You can refer to someone's point (in order to support or oppose him/her), but it should culminate into a fresh idea!
4. A killer - break through idea will fetch you 3 points!! :D
5. Data, Figures, Statistics, Examples, Analogies will fetch you 3 points (provided they are factually correct).
6. The points will be given only for your first contribution!! Any other contributions in the form of "Seeking Clarifications from others" or "Justifying your own view-point" will not fetch any points.
I will be the moderator, and will give points! I know, it is tough to give points in this (as it may get subjective), but never the less I will attempt the same. People questioning my decisions will face a two-topic ban :D
You will get 48 hours to contribute towards a topic! After 2 days, a new topic will be given. A round consists of 5 topics (i.e. 10 days). At the end of every round, winner will be announced (obviously the one who has scored maximum number of points).
No points will be given if you contribute to a particular topic after the deadline for that is over!
So, hum aur aap shuru karte hain "Kaun Banega GD-Pati"!
Round 1: 21-Jan to 31-Jan.
(The winner to this round will be declared on 31-Jan.)
The Grand Prize: Two tickets to 'Salaam-E-Ishq' (releasing this Friday!).
Topic 1 (Deadline to contribute: Wednesday 3.00 pm)
"The changing face of Indian Judiciary"
So, what are you waiting for? Shoot....kyonki "Kuch points zindagi badal sakte hain"
Regards,
Manish sir
