How Mr. Nageswaran Won Rs. 5 Lakh in the India Health Quiz

Mr. Nageswaran

In a world plagued by fake health news and articles spread via the internet, the India Health Quiz launched by GOQii sought to educate the masses with the correct information in a quiz format which tested their knowledge. The idea was to bust myths and fake health news by getting the correct information from experts via GOQii Play and use that knowledge to play the quiz. Players could accumulate points and exchange them for prizes such as GOQii Trackers, Bags, Cell phones and a grand prize of Rs. 5 lakh which was bagged by Mr. Nageswaran!

With so much of competition, difficult questions and obstacles, how did Mr. Nageswaran manage to claim the grand prize? Let’s find out!

What Motivated Mr. Nageswaran?

Being a GOQii Player for about 3 years, Mr. Nageswaran has been quite active on the GOQii App. When the India Health Quiz was announced, he got curious! He knew he wanted to participate. Furthermore, he wanted to increase his awareness about various things related to fitness and nutrition. This was the right platform for him to do that!

Vying For 1st Place!

If you’re wondering, “Did he have a strategy?” He didn’t plan anything. He just went out and played the quizzes with the aim of getting as many correct answers as possible in a collective effort with his wife. His initial thought was that he just wanted to play and see how far he can reach.

As the days progressed, he used to go back to previous quizzes and sharpen his knowledge. He found that some of the past questions had some relevance to the current ones. Towards the end, he knew almost all the answers without even looking at the options.

One of the boons he had by his side was that he never ran out of keys. How? Mr. Nageswaran is a regular at the GOQii Health Store. He says that most of his groceries come from the GOQii Health Store. In fact, he purchased some product or the other every day. This helped him accumulate keys and use them to participate in the IHQ.

As for lives, he had only managed to invite 50 friends. He had retained this number till the last 10 days of IHQ. Towards the end, he referred more people and got his count up to 90. As a matter of fact, he did not need too many lives at later stages as he knew the answers to most questions. He was left with as many as 2000 lives!

 Overcoming Obstacles and Glitches

At the start of IHQ, Mr. Nageswaran face a few technical glitches which reduced as the quiz progressed. He particularly points out that the technical team were always eager to help him with any issue he faced. Despite having faced glitches, he is of the opinion that an online quiz of such magnitude is bound to have glitches. Apart from this, he feels the questions were quite simple except a few technical ones which were very hard to figure out.

His Thoughts on the India Health Quiz

Mr. Nageswaran says it was a commendable effort on the part of GOQii to think of a unique and interesting way to impart knowledge to its users. He feels some of the concepts about health and nutrition might have gotten etched in the minds of users who played these quizzes regularly. For instance, he would have never known the food sources of various vitamins and minerals if it weren’t for the quiz.

He feels what started as a casual thing, later on became an addiction. He and his wife used to even participate in the quiz while working and trying their best not to miss any quiz. He feels it was definitely a success story for GOQii and a great learning experience for him.

All we can say now is Congratulations to Mr. Nageswaran and a big thank you to everyone who participated! Keep your eyes peeled for the next challenge!

Win a GOQii Stride Within 13 Days in the India Health Quiz

win a GOQii Stride100 days can seem too short to collect all the awesome prizes offered in the GOQii India Health Quiz. But remember – where there is a will, there is a way. Recently, one of our Health Quiz Khiladis was determined enough to win a GOQii Stride by earning 3000 points.

As a runner, she had her eyes set on the prize that would help her achieve her health goals. The GOQii Stride is a shoe tracker which you can clip on your shoelace. It tracks your steps, distance and calories burned irrespective of the activity, has a battery life of 180 days and is water resistant.

What came as a surprise was that she was able to win a GOQii Stride within 13 days only. Some might consider 13 to be an unlucky number but for this Khiladi, it was a moment of victory! Does accumulating 3000 points within 13 days sound impossible? It is not! Here’s how she did it!

Doing the Math

In order to collect 3000 points, a person will have to participate in around 60 quizzes, provided he/she gets 50 points in all the quizzes. This ideally means that the person will have to participate in more quizzes and to participate, you will need more keys and more lives!

Collecting Keys and Lives

When you download the GOQii App, you begin with 15 keys and 5 lives. This particular player had done the math! As an active person, she used to clock in 6000 steps every day to earn 4 keys. Add that to the 3 keys one receives as a daily bonus, and the total comes up to 7 keys daily. Then the player took the HRA test to earn an additional 10 keys and sometimes even purchased 1 key using 200 GOQii Cash.

She began inviting her friends using her invite code and was able to invite 5 friends. This gave her 5 extra lives for each that joined. She even got them to participate and play quizzes. This bumped up her total lives to approximately 50.

With all the gear she needed, she diligently participated in the GOQii India Health Quiz every day!

Playing and Winning the GOQii Stride

On the first day of the quiz, she used up all her 15 keys. Following that, she tried her best to participate in 8-9 quizzes a day. Here’s what her scores looked like:

  • 50 points in 30 quizzes
  • 30 points in 40 quizzes
  • 15 points in 10 quizzes
  • 5 points in 30 quizzes

She played 110 quizzes, sometimes scoring a straight A and sometimes she had to use a life. In some cases, she was eliminated in the second round itself. Despite minor losses, this technique and level of preparedness, helped her win a GOQii Stride within 13 days.

She is currently using the GOQii Stride and is enjoying the GOQii Plus Coaching as well! That’s it! Winning the GOQii Stride is not that difficult. Though 100 days seem less, a little effort and a lot of math can go a long way! She is currently playing to win the GOQii Vital tracker which monitors heart rate and blood pressure.

Don’t forget that there are Quizzes held every 30 minutes. So invite your friends, participate and win big!

Try using this technique and let us know if you were able to win the GOQii Stride. Is there a specific technique you are using? Let us know in the comments below!

Collecting Keys

A new player begins with 15 keys. To get more, this player engaged in the various activities required to earn more keys. He began with completing his 6000 steps target and collected 4 keys.

He then proceeded to take the HRA test within the app to earn an additional 10 keys. This brought the total number of keys he possessed up to 29, which meant he could play 29 quizzes. He also went on to invite 2 of his friends to download the app using his referral code. This gave him 10 additional lives as well.

Playing and Claiming a Backpack 

Once he was geared up with everything he needed, he played 21 quizzes. He scored:

  • 50 in 4 quizzes
  • 30 in 7 quizzes
  • 15 in 4 quizzes
  • 5 in 6 quizzes

This brought his total points to 500. During the course of the quiz, he lost some lives but was able to win a backpack within 1 day using this technique! Although he was informed that the backpack would reach him within 2 weeks, he was happy to receive it within 6 working days.
