Legend has it that this temple was formed when Vibhishana placed the idol of recumbent Mahavishnu on the ground. The idol could not be moved thereafter, and still lies facing the south, unlike in most other temples where the deity faces east. The main gopuram is one of the tallest (if not the tallest) in India, and the temple complex is almost a city in itself. Just name the temple and the city please. -Cribananda 08:22, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Sitter...Which Kargil war martyr have 3 Kargil-related movies been partially based on. Nobleeagle (Talk) 08:57, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Vikram Batra must be it since LOC Kargil and Lakshya have his characters, though I don't know if a third one exists. I'm not a bollywood fan I must confess. --Idleguy 09:36, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Capt. Vikram Batra. =Nichalp«Talk»= 10:37, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Wasn't Lakshya about Vikram Batra's life? Two articles mention that the movie was about their lifestory. Which one is right then? --Idleguy 06:08, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
I see...I think both these articles require sources. Both these heroes deserve good articles. Nobleeagle (Talk) 06:39, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
Lakshya was a fictionalised account drawing largely from Batra's life. However, Batra and Nayyar were colleagues and we have a character who is engaged before the war and dies in the war - just like Nayyar. So, Lakshya can be said to be account of both of them. --Gurubrahma 08:02, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

This is easy, but could make a good material for DYK : The rulers of this ancient kingdom had to slit their throats at the end of their reign per tradition. Name the kingdom, the name by which the rulers where known, and the name of this suicide ritual ? -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu_Joseph |TALK 18:16, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
Err..was it that hard? I've striked off the "name of the ritual" part (sorry!), because the ritual as it is didnt have a name. Only the evolved form of the ritual seems to have been named. A little bit of searching should have got you the answer. In fact, the ritual even has a page for itself on wikipedia, and I could find it mentioned in three different articles! I'm willing to accept even a partial answer. Anybody need a clue? -- thunderboltza.k.a.Deepu_Joseph |TALK 15:05, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Q7
Should be a sitter. Connect the DC comics universe with a God of the Hindu trinity. --Gurubrahma 03:03, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
In the DC universe at the time of creation there were three entities known as the Voice, Order and Chaos. The Voice created the world from its mouth - akin to the Hindu Trinity? - Parthi 03:35, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
All the answers are very interesting - however, I was looking at only one God of the Hindu Trinity. Also, the character I was looking for is a reasonably major character unlike Brahma in Superman, and this character is believed to be the best (or at least in the top 5) among martial art warriors by DC comics fans. Yes, Lady Shiva is the right answer and we probably have enough material for a decent article on Hindu influence on DC comics. Cribananda gets the baton. --Gurubrahma 04:28, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Heh. Funny how my answers don't seem to be the main answer intended/expected from the quizmaster. :-) --Idleguy 04:40, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Guess that is the difference between real world, where as a quiz freak, you've thumped the living daylights of your local opponents and the virtual world where all of us can depend on google rather than our brains.

Q8
According to the legend, A decided that his daughter B would get married only if it happened at a particular auspicious moment. But this moment went unnoticed because B disturbed the ingenious device he had made to tell the time. To console her, A wrote a book in her name, which is considered a seminal book in that subject.
Identify A and B. Your time starts now... - Cribananda 06:43, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Wow! That was a great question. Thanks. And tintin was so fast!--Dwaipayan (talk) 06:53, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Good answer! Well done, Tintin. And thanks, Dwaipayan. -Cribananda 06:55, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
The story that I have heard is slightly different. In it, the prediction was that if the marriage happened at a moment other than the one predicted, she would lose her husband soon after the marriage. Because of what she did, the marriage was conducted at the wrong muhurth and the prediction became true soon after. Tintin (talk) 07:22, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Q9
The legend goes that he once predicted that the young son of a king would die on a certain day ( read this in Chandamama but can't remember the exact details) by a certain animal. The King built a tall building and made the boy sit alone on the top floor so that the animal could never get to him. When the appointed time came and went, he went with the king to check whether the boy was alright. There they found him dead - there was a flag pole (dhwaj) on top of the building which carried a bronze figure of that animal, this figure had fallen on the head of the boy killing him. The King gave him a title after the name of that animal, and it is now part of the name by which we now know him. Who ? Tintin (talk) 07:06, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Is the question, who is the king or do we need to find out the title?? Nobleeagle (Talk) 07:09, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
The name of the astrologer/astronomer/mathematician who made the prediction. The title is part of his name. I don't remember the name of the King, so any additional info will be welcome Tintin (talk) 07:12, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
PS: The article about the person names the King and very briefly, the incident. Tintin (talk) 07:15, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Here is a question I myself am not sure about! The sources are differing. As I do not have an in-depth knowledge of the subject (I doubt if any frequenter of the quiz has!), it is hard for me to search correctly. Hopefully through the quiz, the truth can come out.
The question is on a sub-atomic particle. Initially the name it got was defective/wrong due to certain reasons. Later it was pointed out that the name was wrong. A famous German physicist is believed to be the person who pointed out the fault in the name. However, according to other sources, an Indian suggested the new name in a publication in Nature. Name the particle and the Indian scientist. --Dwaipayan (talk) 15:43, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
That was an excellent try! Wow. The German connection is also there. However, the name controversy is missing. Sorry, this is not the answer I was looking for.--Dwaipayan (talk) 15:51, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Meson renamed by Werner Heisenberg from the original mesotron. Did S.N. Bose rename it as well? -- Samirधर्म 15:56, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Guys you ARE fast. It is Meson (previous faulty name: mesotron), Werner Heisenberg is the German scientist. Homi Jehangir Bhabha is also claimed to be the one who suggested the correct name. See in this article (also claimed in some other articles). It's sort of mysterious. This goes to Thunderboltz, as he correctly said both parts of the question.--Dwaipayan (talk) 16:13, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
Phew! I couldn't leave it after the tachyon mistake. That was supposedly one of my planned questions. I hardly finshed reading the question, and tachyons popped into my mind.
