In Total Control (Third Base Issue One)

BOSM is about to get underway and preparations for the same are in full swing. BOSM Controlz are naturally in the thick of things, what with all the registration, scheduling and organizing to be done. Department CoSSAcn Reeturaj Mishra said they keen to see to it that this BOSM turns out to be bigger and better than the last. A major worry in recent years has been the low attendance of BITSian spectators in the sporting events. To attract and retain their attention, some fun events are being planned by Department of Informalz and Jhankaar. Another new feature is Ignition 2k8, a gaming event that is bound to find many takers, considering the popularity of LAN games in the institute. In addition, BOSM Controlz plans to set up tents for spectators so they can watch the action comfortably. They also plan to upload results of completed matches at least twice a day and post updates and schedules in the messes on a daily basis. This year’s 23rd edition of BOSM will witness an unprecedented boom in the number of participants – up to 950 from 750 last year. Lastly, but importantly, Reeturaj hopes for a good response from the BITSian junta and much better attendance than last year’s disappointing figures.
