- 12:09:19: correction @saffrontail is first @subhadeep_c is 2nd and @bongopondit is third for last one. Error in Twitter auto-refresh timing. So sorry!
- 12:11:19: keep the answers coming :) closing in a few
- 12:13:40: The answer is after he got married. 1st to @arkadev 2nd to @ameyc. After he got married, Byomkesh was rested for 16 years!
- 12:14:42: q5. http://bhalomanush.posterous.com/question-5-byomkesh-bakshi-quiz
- 12:17:44: Great answers! And closing now :) The answer is from the color of his tongue. He smuggled in venom in red ink and sucked from the pen nib
- 12:19:14: Almost universally cracked but fasted by @siddev18, @ameyc and @subhadeep_c ... others get glory too but unfortunately no points. ;-)
- 12:21:32: q6. http://bhalomanush.posterous.com/question-6-byomkesh-quiz
- 12:23:55: Side noteL This one is literally Mastermind Level. Cracked by my good friend Suvam Pal during the good old days of BBC Mastermind India.
- 12:25:21: Lot of good answers. I am asking for the fictional person who lead to the cracking (not the mythical one). ;-)
- 12:27:07: Closing first to @kurisad 2nd @ameyc and third @siddev18 Bahni Patanga (insects to the fire). Ratikanta Choudhury connected to Sakuntala
- 12:28:54: q7: http://bhalomanush.posterous.com/question-7-byomkesh-bakshi-quiz
- 12:29:17: Need a specific answer to question 7 since we are heading towards home-stretch. :)
- 12:32:14: He was an actor. So what does that tell you about "motive"?... keep answers coming. ;-)
- 12:34:43: . @saffrontail... that was Arthamanartham were Sukumar was framed because he was a doctor. I'm harping on the profession "acting" here.
- 12:35:37: Ok a bit of a toughie. I'll close but give out some hints. This is from Room No. 2 filmed by Basu Chatterjee for DD as Room No. 201
- 12:36:21: I'll give partial points to @subhadeep_c. The actor was slashed in the face. It was an act of rage by his wife a failed actress.
- 12:37:01: So three points to @subhadeep_c for guessing the angle, but not full credit. :)
- 12:38:06: q8. http://bhalomanush.posterous.com/question-8-byomkesh-bakshi-quiz
- 12:40:11: Good answers and all very deserving. But this was used by a criminal not Byomkesh. Closing shortly :)
- 12:41:50: Nearly universally cracked. Lohar biscuit with gold inside @kurisad @subhadeep and @siddev18 and narrowly missed by others.
- 12:45:04: q9. http://bhalomanush.posterous.com/question-9-byomkesh-bakshi-quiz
- 12:46:49: Here is a clue... waterproof vinyl "cloth" was what lead Byomkesh to find it in the criminal's room. Now you tell me where!
- 12:48:51: Great answers & I'll close shortly. If you want to try to crack go for it now. Think imaginatively where you'd hide matches with waterproof.
- 12:51:21: Closing... in the original Bengali and Hindi adaptation it was found in a matka @siddev18 @arkadev and @subhadeep_c (_c for last one too).
- 12:52:21: .@saffrontail was close on the heels but "in between two layers" of a thermos was ever so slightly off. A round of applause to her though.
- 12:54:33: and time for the last question: http://bhalomanush.posterous.com/question-10-byomkesh-bakshi-quiz
- 12:55:35: and I am reminded that I am -5 for getting @saffrontrail wrong as @saffrontail. Fortunately I'm not the one being quizzed here otherwise...
- 12:59:29: Ok... one spectacular answer, but here are hints. "Numb yet" and you're paralyzed when injected. Wears off and you can kill someone.
- 12:59:48: All right closed.
- 13:01:10: First is @bongopondit with the structure and the answer (procaine better known as novocaine). and 2nd @ameyc with the alibi.
- 13:01:53: Bishu Pal had Dr. Rakshit inject procaine so he would be clinically paralyzed for a few hours. After it wore off, he committed a murder.
- 13:02:43: Gave him a perfect alibi since when doctors examined him, his feet were numb from the injection of the procaine.
- 13:04:39: Lot of queries regarding story it was "dusthchakra"
- 13:05:55: And now to tally. In the mean-time I'll thank all who searched for non-existent answers on www.byomkesh.com. Got hits on that blog today.
- 13:12:31: And the winner is @subhadeep_c with 17, @siddev18 falls just short with 16 and @kurisad is at 13. Tight race after the leaders.
- 13:13:31: And the loser is of course @bhalomanush your kweezzzmaster signing off for now. Feedback most welcome. Bye!
