The Monthly in its 10th edition has 30 questions, the set remains open for 3 days. The daily question will not be posted for the next three days. This gives you a decent chance to change the geography of the Leader Board.
Questions by-MyQA and Varun
We are thinking of starting another Guest Question series but with a difference. Please send two questions(or max 4) which revolve around a common theme;this ensures that one Guest Contributor features for two(or more) days on the blog. The questions will be featured on the blog if they are framed uniquely, please don’t send banal themes. Scoring pattern shall be decided at a later stage(myqa and I will talk over about it 🙂 ) If past contributions are anything to go by, this themed GQC will feature,most probably, till the next Monthly. So, looking forward to your mails; Send ’em to both shenoyvarun86[at]gmail[dot]com & arunkumar_ieee[at]yahoo[dot]com.
MOD EDIT: In question 4,first pic(monthly-con) appears to be broken, just click on the image and it opens up.
MOD EDIT : Please send only one reply, it becomes really tough to update scores other wise
For now, Monthly X is up for grabs, get cracking folks!

8. The Loch Ness Monster is a creature believed to inhabit Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands. It is similar to other
supposed lake monsters in Scotland and elsewhere, though its description varies from one account to the next. Popular
interest and belief in the animal has fluctuated since it was brought to the world’s attention in 1933. Evidence of its
existence is largely anecdotal, with minimal and much disputed photographic material and sonar readings. The scientific
community regards the Loch Ness Monster as a modern-day myth, and explains sightings as a mix of hoaxes and wishful thinking.
Despite this, it remains one of the most famous examples of cryptozoology.
