For all ye lazy bozos of MotA who always thought chain posts are something like election manifestos which could be easily forgotten after its period, here I throw you a challenge! Now come out of your hibernation, pull up your pants, wrap up your sleeves, and get ready for it!!
Really? Are you sure, you are ready? Did you forget that you are encountering with me for this challenge? Yet, you want to give a try? Did you say Yes? Fine. Have an unfortunate day or night or evening or midnight.
OK. I hear you murmur. Here is the challenge. If at all you remember, we had series of posts on truths and lies of our life (what was that? 24 Lies and 1 truth? No, it was that boring 24 truths and 1 lie). You ought to find out the lie in my post. Now stop laughing out loud at the back your monitor, and listen further.
I know you are damn reluctant to go read my post again. Even if all the content in internet except my posts are destroyed, you would go pick a telephone directory and read it rather to go through my post again. But dude, do it for this sake.
If you figure it out right, I would donate Rs.500 (approx 10 USD) to Wikipedia, on your name. And you get all the thanks from Jimmy Wales for having helped in sustaining the earth’s biggest free knowledge repository for everyone. You’ve got chances to get your name on top in Wikipedia pages with a public comment. [You can be sure that I would not include comments such as ‘I owe a lot to Boopalan not Jimmy Wales’ et al, under your name.]. Another Rs.500, I leave it to your choice. You can do anything with it. [that is, Rs.500 is down the drain for me]
After all, I can spend this, to keep MotA live and kicking. ;-)

Update:
Yes, there was this trick done to make it interesting [It did not serve the purpose though.
]
I had intentionally left out a number – Point 16. There were no 25 points in the list but only 24. The lie has been made on the first paragraph. I said that I presented a lie there, [but it was not there], a lie by itself.
There was no explicit rule or statement made by Nafees [who started this series], that says the lie has to deal about me. [Anyhow, A lie is a lie. What if I say about me or any other thing, which is going to be untrue however.] So I took little advantage of that.
I appreciate Savita, for finding it out, and I wholeheartedly appreciate others – Vatsal, manish, KK, Vaithee (and myself
) – more for your active participation which was actually needed.
I would certainly donate the aforementioned sum to Wikipedia. And I leave the remaining sum to be directed by Savita. (Savi – Kudos dear!)
Update-2:
Sorry for not following this up.
Actually, I had tried with my credit card and attempted to transfer USD 10 to wikimedia foundation. It did not give any result messages [Since In India, they have introduced an additional level of validation and that does not apply to international sites, perhaps. ]. I checked with my card statement, it did not get deducted.
So I contacted KD. KD had in fact accepted with pleasure to transfer on my behalf since he holds an international credit card, but disappeared after that as usual
. Then since it was about time for them to close donation drive, I wanted to transfer somehow. I made a transfer of 15 USD through PayPal account (by creating one). Since it did not ask for the extra validation, I checked my statement believing it would not have been deducted like last turn. To my surprise, it was deducted.
To my additional surprise, the amount 10 USD which was previously attempted, also got deducted. So knowingly / unknowingly, the donation of 25 USD has been made. ![]()

“Pul up your pants”!!! hahahhaha… mind blowing man!! How can you be so sure that we’ll be in toilet while scrowling thru MoTA… hahahhahhahaha…

hhahahah… :-pppppppppppppppppp
hahaha….seems a great deal bro … “name on wiki page’s header owing a lot to Boopalan”. Now I think we need to start preparation, there is quite a lot to be done, pulling up the pants for e.g. (
) … wrapping up the sleeves sounds like we are going for wrestling or something ..!!!
Guys we should consult BJ’s girl friend to find that lie…which can help us earn 500 donation amount for WIKI … , what say ???
True
but how can we find the girlfriend yaar???
Finding his girlfriend is easy, He has got 2 laptops as his girlfriends. He told this in his 24 facts !!!
Aha, but they are not going to tell you, what my lie is.
can be lie
he may have two real girlfriend…
Manish,
Last week, there was a header of a person who said – ‘I can’t just keep ignoring that wiki header (donation drive) this time. Wikipedia has become a part of my daily life and activities’ – after donating 5 USD.
No fun intended (in paying USD 10).
Boopalanj
WIKI has definitely helped us find information about many a things. It is always good to contribute.
Mavane nee matina dai!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well start with the deal!!! I must say !!! I m going to win it before the challenge is made… H ahAHa…
I shall not be going give boo the 500 which i owe him as a mark of me winning thgis chalenge….
Ok
Well to find it…
the cricket incident is as fictious as sidney novel…….. Blow me…… i m the winner
I’m not going to reply for this, since others may apply kind of ‘deductions’ mechanism based on my reply.
But, vaithee, one thing is sure, if you slip somewhere, I am going to levy 240% interest (24 facts * 10
) for the 500 Rs that you owe me.
man i dont mind even 1000 % …. its all in the game….
I know about vaithee
I read it twice… i have 2 strong points but i have to validate it and can not do it except asking you which you will not tell me
((((
Record your points. [But why multiple choices? Hope you do not give all the 25 points as answers
]
Will validate… and will choose one :-p
Not enough. Fast. Should I increase the prize money?
i am not doing for it buddy
i know anyways you will donate it
I am just wondering how good you can lie… hehehe
HOW CAN WE BELIEVE THAT YOU ARE SWITCHING YOUR ANSWERS????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
good point Vaithee
What do you mean by “switching”?
This is what i usually do when it comes to giving choices and wait for the answers… i mean u can say .. this is not the answer and this is what….. u know wat i mean , act smart not baby!!!!!
I still do not get what you say. Sorry.
But I am sure, still the right answer has not come up.
Probably, you’ll have to look into it, differently. I mean, do not restrict your area of search. Bulleted points may deceive you while paragraphs may give u the answer..
How can you like Tea being from South India………….I am sure it is a Lie!!!
So when do I see my name?! – Will ignore the fact about Boopalan!
Kavi,
Is it “Thackarey theory”? Being a south indian, I cannot like – Tea, Chappathi, Naan, etc.
Tea is equally famous in south india.
Even Savi claims, you are from south india, you cannot like Parota [Paratha].
:-ppppp acha. “Thackarey theory” also says, this i was not aware of it
Dear origin matters for food habit. You may like it i won’t deny. I like rice very much since childhood, the main food for us is chapati
I repeat:
Bulleted points may deceive you, while paragraphs may give u the answer..
If you closely watch, you’ll be able to get it.
I say a lie. But I deny saying it. This becomes another lie. I did not say a lie. But I say, I lied. This would become another lie.
Ok here we go…
Buddy you said 24 facts and 1 lie which is itself is lie… becoz u wrote only 24 truths and 1 lie is missing… 16 number is missing in ur series…
What say man?
Trivia:
I told you that I had said a lie. But I had not said it, which makes the first statement a lie.
But if the first statement becomes a lie, what that statement means is true. That is, there is a lie.
Kind of recursion it gets into. So adjusted the sentences saying – ‘presented here’, to mean it the way I wanted.
Okie, at last Savita did an almost-open-book test [with the help of my explicit clue
], and found out the answer
He.. he.. Just kidding.. Good work ma’am, you cared enough to find out my lie, and kept hitting on
I am happy.
Aha… someone is happy….
