Tuhin Chakraborty played quizbowl at Troy High School and Michigan.

November 2020 ACF Fall

In 2020, Tuhin was accused of intentionally not listing a teammate on their roster at the OSU mirror of 2020 ACF Winter to receive a shorthanded discount in a move that he described as "where the brilliance of Tuhin comes into play";[1] in response, he was given a two-week ban from attending practices.[2] Public outcry in response to this slap on the wrist resulted in the replacement of most of the Michigan e-board and the club banning Tuhin from attending tournaments (a unilateral ban was issued for the Iowa IKEA mirror); however, neither Michigan Quizbowl nor ACF ever concluded that Tuhin intentionally made this omission out of malicious intent, instead concluding that he made a mistake because he (wrongly) did not believe that the teammate was there at the time- something that Tuhin himself admitted and apologized for [3]. Tuhin's repeated statements that other Quizbowlers believe to be false,[4][5] unrepentant nature,[6] and admission to various accusations[1] earned him widespread ire during this incident. The misconduct subforum is now Tuhin's most active forum, with 150% of his posts;[7] his posting only ended when he was banned from the forums for one month for repeatedly breaking the rules.[8]. Tuhin has since apologized for the aggressive tone of his response, citing emotional harm he incurred from this incident [9].
