Questions for intelligence.

They allow you to create intrigue and attract attention. These questions are based on basic level knowledge of a person, but are somewhat encrypted so that the player fully demonstrates his thinking abilities. During the discussion of such issues, entertaining and unexpected versions and arguments arise, which increases interest in the game.

Examples:

- The English King George I, from the age of 54 until the end of his life, was forced to constantly use the services of a translator. What happened to him at this age?(He became the English king, and since he was German, did not know English and did not want to learn it, he used the services of translators.)

- In the early 90s of the 20th century, the National Hockey League appeared new team– “The Mighty Ducks” from the city of Anaheim. How does the name of the ice arena built in this city sound when translated into Russian?("Pond")

1.
"The answer is in the question."

An interesting variation of intelligence questions, where the answer is contained in the question itself. These questions perfectly train players' instinct for the correct answer and the ability to extract the necessary information from the information presented.

Examples:

IN Ancient Rus' In order to pay, they could cut off part of a silver bar. What do we now call the severed part? (Ruble)

Imagine that you are the captain of a spaceship. There are 5 people in your team, they are 20 years old. How old is the entire crew? (5x20=100 + the number of years of the captain, i.e. the person to whom the question is asked)

2.
^ Questions are jokes.

These are witty questions, where the essence is hidden behind the outer elementary shell, which leads to the side.

Examples:

- The wheel is rolling, one corner is red, the other is green. When the wheel reaches the edge of the table, what angle will it have at the top?(The wheel has no corners)

-What do football players run on?(On the field)

3.
"Original about the banal"

A very interesting version of questions for intelligence. Here, the most ordinary, well-known things are looked at from an unusual angle. Players experience a surge of emotion when they are agonizing over a difficult question, but the answer is simple and almost obvious.

Examples:

- What do you call an acorn that has lived to old age?(Oak)

- This is the name given to the shark of the Vologda rivers.(Pike)

- He was an accomplice of the arrested representative of royal blood.(Wolf. “...In the dungeon there the princess is grieving, and Gray wolf serves her honestly")

4.
^ The question is a hint.

Such questions consist of 3 – 5 hints – hints for the correct answer. First, the presenter says the first clue. If the team guesses correctly, it receives 5 points. Otherwise, the presenter says the second clue, etc. the cost of an answer decreases with each attempt, and the hints, naturally, become more and more transparent.



Examples:

a) In ancient times, the ruler of this country was the daughter of Yaroslav the Wise.

b) One of my friends associates this country with Sangria wine

c) “Ikarus” is a good bus.(Hungary)

2.
Questions like “the unknown about the known.”

An excellent type of question for mind games. They give surprising, entertaining, little-known information about simple things. Often, after hearing such a question, players offer the most incredible versions. And imagine their surprise when they find out the correct answer. Such questions increase interest in the game and add to the knowledge of participants and spectators.

Examples:

- With a blow of his tail he can knock down a horse.(Crocodile)

- In Spanish and Turkish, like centuries ago, one of the meanings of this word is “the art of reducing dislocations.” But for us this is a section of science that has nothing to do with medicine.(Algebra)

3.
Questions on logical and associative thinking.

Such questions are especially interesting to players because they require them to build a chain of reasoning. These are questions - tasks, questions - tasks.

Examples:

- There are three matches, remove the match from the middle without touching it.(Transfer the outer match to the other side, and the middle one will become the outer match.)

- ^ Decipher the line of a famous song if each word is replaced with the opposite meaning: “Football makes false women sick.”(“Real men play hockey”)

- In the given series of words, find the odd one out: table, hippopotamus, car, parrot.(Parrot, because the remaining words denote concepts that have four points of support)

4.
Questions for luck.

These are multiple choice questions, called test questions. They are good because you can ask the most abstruse question and the player has a chance to answer correctly. Optimal quantity options from 3 to 5. To complicate matters, you can add a condition that none of the answer options may be correct or two options may be correct at once.

Examples:

Grandfather Mazai could run 40 miles:

- to Vologda;

- to Kostroma;

- behind a Kalashnikov assault rifle.

5.
Approaching questions.

Questions for which the answers are obvious, but more precise data are very difficult to obtain. It is important that the facts underlying the question are interesting and entertaining. The team that gives the answer closest to the truth wins.

Examples:

- In Veliky Ustyug the largest Vologda region depth of soil freezing. It makes up…(126 cm)

ii.
Productive.

This section groups questions that are acceptable in intellectual games under any conditions.

1.
Questions to reproduce acquired knowledge (reproducing questions).

These questions are of the lowest value for intellectual games. They are designed only for memory, require virtually no explanation, and cannot be answered using intelligence and logical thinking. Allowed only in games for educational purposes, when it is necessary to test the level of knowledge. All such questions should be asked only based on the material covered.

Examples:

What is the name of the first president of Russia? (Boris Nikolaevich Yeltsin)

2.
Reproducing questions "with a trick".

Such questions have a slightly higher value, because... they require not only memory, but also attention.

Example:

When did World War II start? (They usually answer that July 22, 1941, confusing it with the beginning of the Second World War. The correct answer is September 1, 1939)

3.
Enumeration.

Such questions, or rather tasks, require you to list something that has some common feature: the Kremlin towers, the names of girls, Russian fairy tales about animals, etc. But it looks quite monotonous and even boring, and it can be difficult for judges to assess the correctness of the answer, because sometimes they themselves do not have complete information By asked by the question topic. Such questions are possible only at intellectual auctions, or with the proviso that you need to name at least 3 - 3 concepts.

4.
Questions - lectures.

Such questions require a very detailed answer, which immediately reduces interest in the game. are permissible only if games are played at stations where the judge can calmly listen to the participant.

Example:

What are the climatic conditions of central Russia?

iii.
Types of questions and tasks that are unacceptable in intellectual games.

1.
Questions are jokes.

They require the player to have a memorized answer to this very question, and in case of an error, the participant experiences a feeling of humiliation, as if bad joke. Often imply a dialogue between the asker (Z.) and the answerer (O.)

Example:

Z. – It hangs on the wall and smells of sour cream. What's happened?

O. – I don’t know.

Z. - Oh, you! It's a bicycle.

O. – Why does it smell like sour cream?

Z. – And I lubricate it with whatever I want.

2.
Unethical questions.

Examples of such questions, of course, will not be given. I believe that such questions will never be asked by self-respecting people.

To create a scenario for any intellectual and educational game, it is necessary to take into account the main types of intellectual games and the classification of questions and tasks for games, then any the game will pass successfully.

When organizing and conducting any intellectual and educational game, it is necessary to take into account not only the type, form of the game, the content of the questions, but also the entire course of the game, preparation for the event. Below is an algorithm for constructing an intellectual game by performing the necessary conditions which anyone can organize and carry out any intellectual – educational game.

Algorithm for constructing an intellectual game.

Intellectual games consist of a game plot, questions, music, and decoration.

An educational game can be dedicated to any topic. But it is advisable to plan and conduct games that contribute to the acquisition of additional knowledge in academic subjects. This requires close contact with educational institutions and an accurate understanding of students' knowledge gaps.

^ When developing an educational game, you must keep in mind:


  • the amount of factual knowledge of students;

  • formation of skills necessary for independent work(ability to plan and distribute work over time, use reference material; the formation of self-esteem and self-control actions, etc.);

  • level of intellectual development;

  • type of attention, memory, temperament;

  • health status.

Based on the age characteristics of the children and the choice of topic, you can start collecting required material(riddles, poems, literary works, historical facts, proverbs, sayings, sayings of famous people, paintings by artists, etc.), which is then arranged into blocks and dressed in an “interesting shape”. All tasks in blocks should be arranged “from simple to complex”, if necessary accompanied by light, musical effects, as well as using the necessary props. Thus, we can name the necessary conditions for organizing and conducting intellectual games:

1.
Competence of the presenter, ability to behave in front of game participants, good diction, appropriate clothing. Availability of executive and competent assistants (if necessary.

2.
70% of the questions should be based on material studied by the children. 30% - new material.

3.
Questions should be interestingly formulated, built on the principle of “the unknown about the known”, based not on specialized knowledge, but on publicly available facts, logical thinking and intuition. Questions should contain clues that are barely noticeable at first glance, pushing the train of thought in the right direction. Ask in the correct form with clear wording and assume an unambiguous answer.

4.
Teams must be formed in advance (except for those cases when the formation of a team is provided for in the game script).

5.
Competent jury.

6.
Additions to enhance the game flavor (props, etc.)

7.
The plot of the game.

8.
The location of the game and its design (art and music).

9.
Prizes.

« Rebus- a riddle in which the desired word or phrase is depicted by a combination of letter shapes or signs” S.I. Ozhegov

Rules for solving puzzles.

Rule 1. The objects and living beings depicted in the pictures are most often (with rare exceptions) read as words in the nominative case and singular. Sometimes the desired object in the picture is indicated by an arrow. A letter is added to a word in the nominative case.

Rule 2. If the picture is drawn upside down, read the word from the end. For example, a cat is drawn upside down - read TOK.

Rule 3. The inverted commas after the picture indicate how many letters need to be removed from the end of the word that represents what is shown in the picture.

Rule 4. The commas in front of the picture indicate how many letters need to be removed from the beginning of the word denoting what is shown in the picture.

Rule 5. Numbers may appear above or below the picture. Each number is the number of a letter in a word: 1 is the first letter of the word, 2 is the second letter, 3 is the third, and so on. A certain set of numbers under or above the picture indicates that you need to take only these letters and read them in the specified order. A crossed out number means that the given letter should be omitted.


Rule 6. An equal sign between letters means replacing a specific letter (or combination of letters) of a word with another letter (or combination of letters).

Rule 7. Letters can be depicted inside other letters, above other letters, under and behind them. In such cases, it is necessary to understand in what spatial relationships the depicted letters consist. For example, inside the letter O the letters LK are drawn - we read WOLF (although it can also be read as LKVO). The letters OD are written on top, P on the bottom - we read the people. The letters YES are written in front, and the letters CHA are written behind them - we read TASK.

- WOLF

Rule 8. Letters can be depicted on the surface of other letters. For example, a large letter H is depicted, and small Is are scattered around it - we read PONY (although it can also be read as IPON, NIZI or IZIN).

and and

And and and and and

Rule 9. The techniques listed above can be combined with each other.

Another type of puzzle is anagram.

Anagram- This is the rearrangement of letters in a word to form another word. For example, an ax is a murmur, a burbot is Milan, a whim is an order. By rearranging letters, you can get more than two new words: - krucha - pen - chock. Children who enjoy playing with anagrams can gradually become “absolutely literate.” Anagrams can be simple (KAPOR - PORPKA) or compound, as well as poetic.

Compound anagrams:

^ Examples of poetic anagrams:

Will you read it first?

Will you read from the end?

You will find me on any ship. (Cook)

I'm lying on the ground

Nailed to iron.

But stop the letters -

I'll get into the pan. (Sleepers, noodles)

The topic of the lesson can be encrypted by rearranging the words. For example:

Costume modeling - deMorolinieva macostue. Or end the lesson with the phrase - pass for Borat!

And again the game. Application gaming technologies promotes a positive attitude at work.

Poetic anagrams:

1. I played roles on stage,

I performed in the arena

The letters, apparently, were playing a joke -

They took it and turned it into utensils,

And now it’s smart in the kitchen

I'm grating carrots.

(Gart, actor)

2. Read me on the left,

And I will be a despising dog.

But I will count the time

When you read it the other way around.

(Dog, year)

3. I am a tree with fragrant flowers,

I give you cool shade

They rest under my crown

On a windless, hot day

But if the consonants

I will rearrange myself,

You'll get a new word

Bringing death to me.

(Linden tree, saw)

4.You will solve the problem freely:

I am a small part of the face.

But read me from the end

You will see anything in me.

(Nose, dream)

5. I am a tree in my native country,

You will find me everywhere in the forests,

But stop the syllables in me

And I will serve water.

(Pine, pump)

ANAGRAMS:

1. IN SUL DIORASIL CHKOLAYO, IN SUL NAO LAROS (A Christmas tree was born in the forest, it grew in the forest)

2. YODIT KYCHOB TSIAACCHAYE, ETAKHYZDV AN DUKHO (The bull walks, sways, sighs as he goes)

3. NILAMEYOK CHELEKO LODOKHON MIYOS...(The little Christmas tree is cold in winter...)

4. KOMULRYAO UBD NYZELY, AAYATLZ ETsP... (Lukomorye has a green oak, a golden chain...)

5.A OMYA VIOBYUL TEVIZH AN TSADAVDIT AGAIN ZHETAE... (And my love lives on the twenty-fifth floor...)

6. VARYAKASI VIULOB – RYVAKISE LOVSA SCHEBOLAA... (Beautiful love - promised beautiful words...)

7. SHANA NYATA MOKROG ECHAPTL (Our Tanya is crying loudly)

8. YARUB LOYUMG BEON RETOK, KHIVRI SYEZHENN URTYAK (The storm covers the sky with darkness, spinning snow whirlwinds)

9.ZhDYNAOD, IN TUDSNYU YUNYUMIZ UPOR YA ZI SUEL ​​LIVESH (Once, in the cold winter, I came out of the forest).

Intellectual and educational game “Clever Guys”

One of these interesting forms can be called the traditional intellectual and educational game “Clever Guys,” which has been held for 10 years among educational institutions in the city of Noyabrsk. The game "Smart Guys" is an integral part additional education cities. No one passes without her academic year. A special place in the intellectual game “Clever Guys” is occupied by themes dedicated to the native land, fatherland, and Motherland.

^ Age of game participants: senior and middle school age, from 2 to 20 teams

Goals and objectives of the game: creating conditions for the relationship between basic and additional education of children, developing the intelligence and creative potential of students, broadening the horizons of students, instilling patriotism, love for their native land, instilling in schoolchildren a sense of collectivism, mutual assistance, responsibility and independence.

^ Game documentation: To conduct the game for the participants of the game, a position , which describes the goals and objectives of the game, the order and conditions of the game, lists the names of the 3 rounds of the game and the dates of their holding. A month before each round, games are developed annex to the regulations , which specifies the date, time and location of the game; the range of knowledge for the game participants is described, i.e. sections of the material that you need to know to successfully participate in the game are determined; recommended literature for the game is described, the event is announced additional training to the game (if possible, teams are given lectures and excursions on the topic of the game, conducted by specialists from the Central Library System or the Museum Resource Center); An organizational gathering for teams is announced, which is held 3 days before the game (at which the game organizers name the topics of the rounds, the bet for each round is announced, and organizational issues are clarified).

^ Thematic content: The themes of games can be very diverse. Usually a common theme is taken for the three rounds of the game, and each round is named according to general theme, in each round one branch of knowledge is taken (for example: persons, music, art, etc.)

^ Game rules:

The game consists of 5 rounds. At the beginning of the game, each team receives starting capital - 25 lepta. When answering a question, teams make bets, write down the answer on the sheets and pick up the card corresponding to the number of the chosen answer (in the “Test” round), or write down the answer option on the sheet, which is then read aloud by the dealer. If the answer is correct, the bet is doubled; if not, the team loses its mite(s). Thinking time is 30 seconds (1 min).

At the end of the game, the earned capital is calculated. The winners of the round are the teams with the most large quantity mept. The winner of the entire game (season) is the team that collects the most contributions in 3 rounds.

The game provides a variety of forms and contents rounds :


  • "Test"- consists of 25 test questions. Round bet: one question – 1 mite. By answering the question, the team receives (or loses) 1 mite.

  • "Matching"- game participants are invited to compare the proposed indicators, for example, “Dates and events”, “Surnames” famous people and their exploits”, etc. In this round, 1 question is asked - comparison; in 1 (1.5) minutes, the participants of the game must compare the indicators. Round bet: one question – 4 mites. If the team answered the question correctly, it receives 4 mites, and if it makes at least one mistake, it loses 4 mites.

  • "Description"- it is necessary to determine the name or name from the description of something or someone, for example – round “ Historical reference“- descriptions of battles and battles are presented, you need to find out what we are talking about. Round bet: one question – 2 mites. For one wrong answer, 2 mites are taken away.

  • "Video round"- game participants are offered video questions on the topic of the game. Round bet: one question – 2 mites. For one wrong answer, 2 mites are taken away.

  • "Musical round"- games are offered to participants musical questions According to the theme of the game, for example, songs from the war years are played, you need to guess the artist or the name of the song. Round bet: one question – 2 mites. For one wrong answer, 2 mites are taken away.

  • "Pig in a poke"- participants must guess what item is in the bag. The round consists of 3 questions. Rate - one question - 1 mite. For one wrong answer, 1 mite is taken away.

  • "All in"- this is the decisive round! Teams are offered one complex issue. They must give one, the only correct answer to it in 1 minute. The team chooses the bet itself: it can place 1 mite, or it can place all the mites earned during the game. The team writes the answer on the sheet. The dealer reads out the answer. If the answer is correct, the bet is doubled. If not, all contributed contributions are taken away.

Traditionally, the game always has 3 rounds. These are “Test”, “Pig in a poke” and “All-in”. The remaining rounds are selected in accordance with the theme of the game and the capabilities of the organizers.

It should be noted that the game uses a Microsoft presentation Power Point: the names of the rounds, questions and correct answers, “Video Round” materials, etc. are displayed on the screen. The presentation allows the game participants to better understand the content of the question, and during the time allotted for discussion, the game participants can, looking at the question, clarify unclear facts . Traditionally, the club curator is responsible for the presentation, who draws up all the questions and tasks for the game and draws up the presentation.

^ Presenters and assistants: The game is usually played by 2 representatives of the “Umniki” club: a boy and a girl. The game requires 14 croupiers (according to the number of teams), who monitor the progress of the game at the table. Their responsibilities include: giving the team earned mites in case of a correct answer or taking them back if the answer is incorrect; pick up cards in the “Test” round; read out the teams' answers in the remaining rounds. 1 person is responsible for accompanying the game with a presentation. 1 person – for musical accompaniment games. 1-2 assistants are also needed to carry out bags for the “Pig in a Bag” round, help in the award ceremony, and ensure silence in the hall and foyer. Brain Ring competitions can be held in the following ways:


  • Olympic system- all teams are divided into pairs (threes, fours, etc.), those teams that lose the battle are eliminated from the competition, and the winners are again divided into groups, and so on until the champion is determined. The advantages of the system are significantly less time and questions. The disadvantage is that many of the losing teams have too few fights.

  • ^ Round-robin system- each team plays with each other. Usually held with a fixed number of questions in the battle, the winner receives 2 tournament points, the loser - 0 tournament points, for a draw each team receives 1 tournament point. The team with the most tournament points after all games are over wins. If several teams have equal points, the winner is determined by additional indicators (teams meeting with each other, the difference between goals scored and goals conceded, etc.). The advantage of the system is the same number of games for all teams, the disadvantages are a significant investment of time and questions.

  • ^ Mixed system- teams are divided into several groups, each of which plays round-robin games. A certain number of teams from each group advance to the next round of competition. In the next round, the teams are either again divided into groups or play according to the Olympic system. The advantage of this scheme is that it gives a guaranteed number of games for each team, but saves time and questions. The Ukrainian Brain Championships are held using this system.

  • "Ladder"- the most spectacular game system, but also the least sporting. Two teams start the game. The losing team leaves the competition, and the winner plays the next team. The winner of the last scheduled fight becomes the champion. It is clear that teams that enter the game later have an advantage.

Variations on the theme of "Brain Ring"


  • "Who is last?". The game is interesting with the participation of four to six teams. As in “Brain”, the team that is ready to do it first answers, but the host does not say whether this answer is correct. The remaining teams have the right to give their own answer, which does not coincide with those already given. When there are no more people willing to answer or the discussion time has run out, the moderator announces the correct answer. The team that answers correctly (there can be only one) receives as many points as the number of answer options given.

  • "Brain" without false starts. The game takes place according to the rules of the usual “Brain Ring”, but you can press the button at any time after you start reading the question, i.e. false start is not recorded. Usually, before starting the question, the presenter informs what exactly will be asked in the question (for example, “Name the name. The great Russian poet made the epigraph to his work about the underage with the words “Take care of honor from a young age.” Say his name”).

  • "A swan song". The game takes place according to the rules of the usual “Brain Ring” or “Brain” without false starts, but the team, if the opponent answers correctly, loses one person who leaves the playing field. There are several options for determining the winner: In the first case, the team whose opposing team has lost all its players wins the battle; in the next round, the winning teams start the game again in full force. In the second option, the battle is fought for a certain number of questions, and the winning team moves on to the next round with the number of people left after the previous battle. The team that loses its last player is eliminated from the competition.

  • « Cheshire Cat» . Unlike the previous option, in “Cheshire” the player leaves the team that answered the question correctly. The first team to get rid of all players wins. The player of the winning team who is the last to leave the table receives the title “Smile of the Cheshire Cat.”

"String bag"

1.
The rules for the question drawing basically coincide with the rules for the question drawing “What? Where? When?" except for the following points:


  • The task of the teams is to give the correct answer to the question asked by the presenter in a timely manner. In addition, the team can play at random.

  • If a team plays a question in the “normal” mode (i.e., does not play “at chance”), then the team receives one point for a correct answer, and zero points for an incorrect answer.

  • If a team decides to play this question “at random,” then the team receives two points for a correct answer, and minus one point for an incorrect answer.

  • The answer sheet in this game has a special form. The area for answers in it is divided into two fields: the upper (light) and the lower (darkened, marked “Maybe”).

  • If a team plays this question in “normal” mode, then the answer is written in the upper (light) field. If a team plays this question “at random,” then the answer is written in the lower (darkened, marked “Perhaps”) field.

  • The answer must be given in only one of the two fields above. Forms with answers in two fields at the same time or with an answer written crossing the border between two fields will not be accepted for consideration by the gaming jury.

  • Crossed-out information on the answer form is not taken into account (thus, a situation is allowed when the answer is crossed out in one field and written in another).

2.
The place is determined by the number of points scored. If this indicator is equal, the largest number of correct answers is taken into account.

Variations on the theme of “Your Game”

“Your own game - Mixed.” It differs from the usual “Own game” only in that it is not individual participants who compete, but pairs of players. The rules for pressing a button may be different - every player has a button and anyone can press it; there is only one button per pair, but any player can press it; there is one button per pair and one of the players has the right to press the button.

"Erudite-Quartet". Several teams (usually 3-4) participate in the game. In the classic version of the Erudite Quartet, the team consists of four people. However, this is not necessary - a team can have three, five, or even more players. The main condition is the same number of players in all teams.

The game consists of three rounds. Each round consists of several topics. The type of topics and the rules for drawing questions in them are similar to “Your Game”. The number of topics in a round must match the number of players in the teams. Each team member plays exactly one topic during each round. Thus, all players will play three themes per game.

First round - "Open". Before it starts, the presenter lists the names of all the topics of the round. The team itself decides which player will play which theme.

Second round - "Half-open". Before playing each topic, the presenter announces its name. The team has very little time to determine which player will play this theme.

Third round - "Closed". Before the start of the round, the team determines the order in which the players will play out the topics. This order cannot change during the round. The player learns the name of the topic only after sitting down at the playing place.

The points scored by players of one team are summed up. The team with the most points over three rounds wins.

Sometimes some of the rounds are not played out. This usually occurs during the qualifying stages of the competition in order to save topics and time. "Troika"

“Troika” (author of the game Leonid Klimovich) as a game is extremely simple. There are three rounds, each round has three topics, each topic has three questions. In the first round, the price of a correct answer is one point, in the second - two, and in the third - three. And after the third round - a super game with three questions that are worth 5, 7 and 10 points respectively). So you can keep the intrigue until the last!

“Troika” is played by two “teams” (but three are possible) - teams of three people. One player is a “root man”, and in his hands is a signal bell (a button from an electronic system), the others are “string-on”.

Discussion (as well as giving signals to each other - “I know, press!”) are prohibited. In case of any action similar to giving such a signal, the team is deprived of the right to respond - in favor of the opponent. The players remain silent until the leader addresses them.

The game episode is structured like this. The presenter reads the question, and the “root man” can give a signal at any second. Then the presenter turns for an answer first to the “attachers” (one at a time, waiting for an answer - three seconds), and then to the “root”. Each of the “team” can answer correctly; Thus, a team can receive a maximum of three points per question in the first round, six in the second (when the stakes are doubled) and nine in the third (when the stakes are tripled). True, three incorrect answers can be given - then the presenter (sometimes after reading the question to the end) turns to the opponent for an answer (for three answers, according to the same scheme).

The one with the most points at the end of the game wins.

"Lucky case"

2-3 teams of 6 people each can take part in the game. The game is played in 4 games. Before the game starts, it is decided which team will respond first. At the end of each game, the counting commission announces the final result of each team.

^ Description of games:

1st game “Further... further... further...” - each team takes turns throwing a game die, on four sides of which there are units, on one side there is a zero, and on another there is a horseshoe. If a one is rolled, the team will receive 1 point for the correct answer; if a horseshoe is rolled, a Lucky Chance is rolled, and if the answer is correct, the team will receive 3 points; if a zero is rolled, this means the turn is changed. In the first game, each team rolls the dice 7 times.

A cipher appears on the safe - a coded event (for example, day, month, century, year, country, place). Positions are guessed in the order in which they were listed.

Teams choose by lot the one who will lead the game (guess the first position, in this example - the number). After which “Barabashka” one by one offers the teams hints on the position they are guessing. This continues until one of the teams gives the correct answer. In this case, she receives as many points as the hint was worth.

The ratio of hints and points is as follows:

up to 1 hint – 200 points;

1 hint – 150 points;

2 hints – 100 points;

If the team answers incorrectly, the answering player leaves the team and the turn goes to the opponent. If the team does not know the answer, the turn goes to the opponent. The opponent can respond to a hint that has already been given or ask for the next one.

If all the clues in the game are exhausted, then the team that asked for the 7th clue (in the event that the opponent does not know) is obliged to give an answer.

If not a single team was able to give the correct answer, “Barabashka” reveals it. The next position must be guessed by the team that was second this time.

The hidden object can be a person, an animal, an alien, etc., in general, any living creature. The task of the other players is to determine who is hidden. To do this, they ask the presenter questions.

The questions can be anything, but the presenter only knows what the mystery character can know “from inside” the work. Those. he knows nothing about the author or the book (film). If a child is given, then he may not know where he lives, since he is too small, etc. We can assume that the presenter knows all the events that happened to the mystery person in this work. Thus, the presenter seems to “immerse” himself in the character’s life.

The new leader becomes the player who named the hidden character.

THE ANSWERS ARE DIFFERENT

A new hobby for a number of experts arose here in Odessa, at a large and representative tournament held in 1991. A generally simple question was asked: “Name a new vehicle on 8 wheels that is environmentally friendly and popular among young people.” Many easily gave the correct answer - “roller skates.” But everyone was amazed by the Murom team. Obviously, remembering the unforgettable period of our history from 1982 to 1985, they replied that it was... a gun carriage! The laughter in the hall after this answer was announced died down after about five minutes.

From this point on, incorrect answers became almost as much an object of interest (and perhaps even more to a greater extent object of art), as well as the correct ones. They usually entertain the audience even more than the correct ones, and legends about the best among the worst are passed on among experts, as they say, by word of mouth.

A number of teams that have completed the answer ahead of time, simply out of a cheerful mood, come up with such an answer that it would kill the saints, and indicate it in the note, marking it so as not to break the rules, with the letters C.V. (private version) - if such an answer is good , it is not a sin for the presenter to read it out loud. But answers given completely seriously are usually much funnier. Special prizes are established for them (for example, in Dnepropetrovsk such a prize is called “Spreading Cranberry” and represents a hefty bottle of Finnish cranberry vodka - they say, if you are dreaming up something like that with sober eyes...). And I collect them, and I am happy to present several copies of this collection to your consideration.

Here's an example question:

In the 50s of our century, at a meeting of geologists, the last toast was proclaimed to the Russian Emperor Alexander II. Why?

The answer is quite logical - sold Alaska and will not be sent there. But one team answered: “He freed geologists from serfdom” - and after this answer was announced, it was impossible to play for some time.

Napoleon was not very eccentric, but he threatened to guillotine the cook who cooked him chicken. Napoleon's hatred of this dish is explained by the same reason as the love of Soviet emigrants in America for it. Give this reason.

The matter seems to be simple: both in Corsica and in America chicken is the food of the poor, the cheapest meat. Napoleon was unpleasantly reminded of his poor childhood. But one of the teams responded that Napoleon was outraged... by the reminder of his fat thighs! Thank God, the great emperor did not live to see this, otherwise he would definitely have declared war on Ukraine...

And even I am surprised at the answer to this question. It sounds quite solemn:

Science defines it as a non-standard wet material that contains metal, glass, rags and a large number of organic and mineral substances. What is it?

The answer is quite simple: garbage. How one of the teams, during a rather tense game, when a lot depended on this answer, managed to come up with such an answer as “sausage” - yes, yes, exactly that! – is still a mystery to me. Does such sausage really exist? Or does it still happen sometimes? Don't know...

Or another really good question:

The answer is beautiful: “A small step for one person, but a big step for all humanity”- words of Neil Armstrong. And what a wonderful answer one of the teams gave - it’s mind-boggling! "Poor Yorick!" I don’t even know if a point should be awarded for such a flight of mind, just like for the correct answer...

Here's a rather piquant situation. The question was asked:

What did experienced convicts in Russian prisons tattoo on their buttocks to make their lives easier?

Of course, portrait of the sovereign emperor– they didn’t dare to flog him. But one of the teams gave such an answer that I was surprised to note how long it takes to imagine this picture in order to write something like this. This answer is absolutely verbatim: “The inscription “Life has cracked”.” Considering that the team was purely female, one can only be delighted - what else can one do?

Quite recently at the Ukrainian Championships they asked the question:

Jean-Paul Sartre chose the words as an epigraph for the newspaper he published: “Be realistic - demand...” What then?

The correct answer is a rather elegant paradox - "impossible". But it’s not just the Sartres who play our games, and so one of the answers read: “Change,” and another, “Refill after settling.” It’s good, of course, that Sartre didn’t live long enough, but how could he compare to us!

And this example is completely recent. The question sounded like this:

Leonardo da Vinci introduced one invention in Europe, which he called “an alternative to the dirty tablecloth.” What kind of invention is this?

The answer is simple - napkins. But it's not that interesting. And which of the actual answers given by the teams to this question is more interesting: “toilet” or “abstract painting” - I leave it to you to judge.

And what have I never heard from children! For example, at the recently concluded Odessa championship in “What? Where? When?" among schools... There was everything: successes, failures, correct answers, and, of course, incorrect ones, which are somehow more interesting than the correct ones. So, to the question:

Scandinavian hell was significantly different from the Christian hell we are used to. What is the main difference between the Scandinavian hell and the Christian one?

- the answer is actually elementary: for the Scandinavians, fire is grace, and therefore their hell was not fiery, but was kingdom of eternal cold. But one children’s team answered: “It’s not devils who torture people there, but people who torture devils,” and another suggested an even more eccentric option: “It’s not the bad people who end up there, but good people" In any case, it is logical. It would be even more logical to combine these two answers...

I asked the kids this question:

At the Philadelphia Zoo, a lion fell ill: his mane began to fall off, and the other lions drove him away for this. What did the zoo staff do to return the lion to the pack?

Many gave the correct answer: made him a wig. But isn't it prettier version one of the commands: “Transferred him to the lionesses”? After all, such measures perfectly help not only lions!

However, the above cases at least do not cause controversy.

And in Yerevan at one of the tournaments they once asked the question:

The oldest in Spain and the largest in the world, the Spaniards call “El Gordo” - “The Fat Piece”. She is also called the godmother of the Barcelona Olympics. What is it about?

The question for an experienced team is simple - about the lottery. But 90% of average teams and almost all, so to speak, non-professionals, immediately confidently give the same answer: “Of course, this is Montserrat Caballe!” I have no trouble proving to them that there are older people in Spain, and bigger ones in the world, but after this they are left with some kind of gloomy feeling - they say they spent it, but it’s not yet clear how exactly...

And what kind of jokes old Freud plays on the subconscious of teams, especially youth teams, would take a long time to tell. A question was asked at one time:

The answer is not that complicated. It's clear that we're talking about about "Seven-up" - therefore it is Pepsico. And the stars of our school tournament gave the answer: “This is a company that produces “week” panties.” It was said - there is a number on the T-shirt! And I don’t have enough imagination to imagine a great forward on the field in such equipment...

This is just a small part of my collection. I will gratefully accept any worthy addition – just not at tournaments. And that's enough.

THAT'S ALL!

On September 4, 1975, at exactly 12:00, the program “What? Where? When?” was broadcast for the first time. Today, even a child can tell the rules of this game, but few people remember that 38 years ago there were no experts, no spinning top, or the famous crystal owl. In the first games, two families competed against each other, 2 rounds were filmed in their house, and then the stories were edited using photographs from the participants’ family album. Later, students began to take part in the game and the program was called a “youth television club”, and in 1991 it turned into an “intellectual casino”.

The first questions for experts were thought up by Vladimir Voroshilov himself and a team of editors, but a few years later, letters from viewers began to arrive at the program’s address with questions, the answers to which were sometimes the most unexpected.
