AguPips win in the UP CORE Quiz Show
December 9, 2008 - Trivia-savvy AguPips once again made the organization proud by winning the major prizes in the annual quiz show of UP Circle of Research Enthusiasts. Two teams with 3 members each joined the said quiz show dubbed "tELEVENsion: What's Top on TV". Team "Sikrams" was composed of Marco, Michael and Rex while Team "Bitrams" was composed of Abigail, Fergie and Ruby. Other AguPips were also present to support and cheer for the Aguman teams.
The questions in the said quiz show were about mostly popular foreign TV series in the past and in the present. A total of 13 teams registered for the event. After the 30 questions in the Elimination Round, Sikrams finished 1st and Bitrams was tied at 3rd with another team.
In the Final Round, 7 clips of popular TV series where screened and paused at specific moments. The competing teams were then asked on what will happen next. The featured shows were Project Runway, Desperate Housewives, Gossip Girl, Lost, Grey's Anatomy, Prison Break and Heroes. Sikrams correctly answered all questions except the one about Project Runway. Bitrams, on the other hand, failed to answer the questions about Project Runway and Lost. A team composed of UP Cineastes members had a perfect score and took home the 1st Prize of P3000 cash and Cerealicious Gift Certificates. Sikrams clinched 2nd Place and won P2000 and Bitrams won the 3rd Prize of P1000.
Interestingly, the AguPips has won the same quiz show by the UP CORE two years ago. The two Aguman teams placed 1st (Celine Dagdag, Gboi De Padua & Justin Dungca) and 2nd (Rex Dizon, Argel Casupanan and Renz Caliguia).
Last week, the UP Aguman delegation composed of Kevin, Trish and Aries placed 2nd out of 15 teams in the Foodstuffing contest of Upsilon Sigma Phi. Unfortunately, only the top winner was awarded with prizes.
