I apologize for the large size of the image of AVENUES mascot in my first post on this thread. I was unable to adjust the size and make it smaller. The system was resetting the size, every time I reduced it.

It requires some amount of lateral thinking. The answer is not always where it seems. Indeed the entire page can have the answer . Even small things matter 😃

Cracking Trivius : Let us know your progress !


Hope everyone is having fun with Trivius. Remember, the stages will only get tougher as you proceed. The incentive is being the first one to crack all the stages, the prize money is just incidental. Rack your brains, google, do anything you can to crack Trivius .

Starting today we'll be publishing the daily list of 3 leaders of Trivius. The leadership would be based on the number of levels that person has reached. Right now based on the comments we can see that several people have reached stages 5 or more. If you are one of them , drop us a mail at this id - [email protected]. The mail should mention the name of the person, the institute that person belongs to, the stage number and the URL of the stage at which you are. Verification of the stage numbers would be done on the basis of URLs and hence do not forget that in your mail. The deadline for sending the mails for today is 2300 hours.
