BATTLE OF THE BRAINS
IMPLEMENTING RULES AND REGULATIONS
1. BATTLE OF THE BRAINS is a group competition open to all bona fide
students of Liceo de Cagayan- College of Business and Accountancy. 2. Each sub-organization is required to send at least one (1) team which consists of four (4) members. However, the sub-organization may also send more than one (1) team for the said contest. 3. Each team should have a name. We encourage each team to come up with a witty, creative team name that will be easy to recall. (Nothing obscene or offensive.) 4. The BATTLE OF THE BRAINS competition is composed of five (5) categories. Each category will have 5-10 questions. 5. Each question will be read twice by the host. Players may start writing their answers at anytime. After the host has read the question, a 10-second allowance will be given so that teams may finish writing their answers on the whiteboard. The host will then request that all whiteboards be raised to show their answers. Everyone MUST then stop writing and raise their boards. The correct answer will be announced by the host and teams who got it correct will earn a point (or more, depending on the category or if there are bonus questions.) 6. Teams still writing after the answer has been revealed will invalidate their answer. 7. Wrong spelling wrong. 8. Marshals will be posted in strategic locations to enforce order and validate the answers. Teams with the correct answer will be announced by the host and the scorer will then record the points earned. 9. Strictly NO using of phones, laptops; so as such, the use of Wi-Fi is prohibited. Sharing of answers between teams is not allowed. Any team caught violating these rules will be given a corresponding consequence. 10. If a player feels that there are alternate answers to the question at hand, he/she is advised to raise his/her concern immediately to the host so that it will be acknowledged. It will then be forwarded to the quiz committee for arbitration. The alternative answer will be noted along with those whose answers are the same with the said alternate answer. While it is being verified, the game should progress normally. The committees decision will be announced at the end of the set and points will be adjusted accordingly. 11. At the end of the five (5) categories, the team with the highest number of points will be declared the champion. 12. In case of a tie, we will go to a sudden death march where the first team to get the correct answer immediately wins. 13. There will be a pre-registration on February 13, 2017 until February 21, 2017 at the CBA Office from 8am-5pm. 14. The quiz committees decision shall be FINAL and IRREVOCABLE.
