There were very less participants from other colleges on-site. Around 150.
However on-line we had around 300 participants in Treasure Hunt. Treasure Hunt was the National Level Event that was won by IEM.

Tech Fests Win and Loss
National Institute of Technology aka R.E. College of Durgapur was famous for being the college second only to IIT Kharagpur in West Bengal in Engineering Education. This was not what I had expected of them.
The prelims questions were so bad that we (me and Sarthak) could challenge them that they knew nothing about them They were mostly wrong. All of them used the depreciated C90 standard and the TurboC standard (sic!). In the 2 events of programming : Khula Maidan and Code Marauders, I qualified in only Code Marauders. In Khula Maidan, I did not qualify. So, I wasn't good enough? Mine and Sarthak's teams did not qualify, we challenged them that the scripts were checked wrongly and questions posed erroneous. After much persuasion, they found Sarthak's paper and qualified them. And they didn't find our paper. We were notified we did not make the cut-off make necessary.

M$ Windoz Vista - A piece of crap
Here's a not so very nice-looking video shot at a college friends' PG-room. He had lost his pirated Product Key and Vista would not log him on. He was required to enter a valid key. Vista was good.

NB: This is actually a pretty serious bug. I can start any program from Vista without any Product Key on my machine! Looks like Microsoft's recession source is something else.
But then I came,
and I showed him,
that Vista was pretty lame,
and that pleased him!

Palindrome Formation problem
Recently in the BESU tech fest, the final round of programming event contained a series of interesting questions.
Even though I was unlucky enough to not win a prize (after making some kiddish mistakes), I happen to have discovered something of a problem that read:
