Intellectual entertainment shows, conducted in the form of quiz in a cafe or bar, and therefore, the pub-requests are called for the first time, for the first time appeared in the UK several decades ago and eventually gained tremendous popularity around the world. To Mogilev, such a kind of recreation reached on March 15, 2015, when the first game was organized under the brand "Mozdania". Then 21 teams with a total of about 130 people took part in the game. Now it plays about 40 teams and more than 200 players. In order to introduce our readers in more detail with this game - we have penetrated the "brain" and despalted all its secrets.

Where to start and how to register a team to participate in the game

First of all, intelligence should be collected by visiting the group " Brain in Mogilev " It is not only possible to see any general information, rules and photos from past games, but also to know when and what time will the next game be. Usually, new games are announced a few days before registration, and the registration itself is declared a couple of days before the game.

On the appointed day, as a rule, exactly at noon there is a post from the organizers who announced the start of registration.

The first minutes resemble real cowboy duels. The fastest, deft, and most importantly, the responsible representatives of the teams leave applications for participation in the game. So within a few minutes on the wall, the main part of the teams appears, the rest are tightened a little later. According to the logic of things, such efficiency is justified, because the number of places in the restaurant is limited, but really, really, you can fly with the game if you do not have time to register before the rest? This question is our Special Agent James Mozgobond asked the organizer of the game in Mogilev - Alexey Trunovaya . The mined information read:

Yes of course. If the number of registration teams exceeds the number of tables in the institution, the commands that were the last to fall into the reserve. Although we usually try to place everyone.

Therefore, the registration time is better not to skip. The application for participation should specify the name of the team and the number of players.

As for the names of the teams, it becomes clear where the whole Mogilev creative gone.

However, it is possible to understand the logic of the names of some commands from the survey, which was recently conducted in the game group. Almost all the stories are original, and some are impregnated with the spirit of mystical coincidences.

Having invented the name of the team and registering it to participate, it remains to wait for the game itself.

What is our life? A game!

The phrase from the Aria of Hermann Opera "Peak Lady" in many of us are associated with intellectual teleigar "What? Where? When?" For brain, it would rather approached an equally well-known winged phrase: "Bread and spectacles!" Moreover, in spectacles you can actively participate, and the bread and other snacks with drinks can be ordered at the site of the game - in the restaurant Gabrovo. Despite the large number of participants (about 200 people), our orders were processed quite quickly or we were just lucky. However, it is obvious that people come to the brain not so much to eat how much to play - so consider the game itself. First of all, we give the rules of the game, which are represented by the organizers in the group with some of our comments.

In the game seven tours of seven questions. Questions 1-6 tours are demonstrated on the screen about a minute, read the lead. Then quickly read all the issues in a row. The countdown of 100 seconds is started, after which the leaflets are rented with answers.

Tours 1, 2, 4 and 6 are text (guess the term in, event, phenomenon, process, translate something from other languages, continue the quotation, add fact, guess what speech on several facts, etc.).

Here it should be added that the first round is a warm-up of quite simple questions, although there are also those that you need to break our heads thoroughly.

The second tour is news. It provides issues relating to recent interesting events, discoveries, absurdities.

The fourth and sixth rounds contain questions from various areas. Some of them can be guess due to erudition, if some facts are already familiar, to take another of the logic, the remaining can be trying to just guess.

Tour 3 - musical (according to the sound fragment you need to guess the artist, composer, and sometimes the author of the words or an event that the composition was devoted).

A very difficult tour, since the compositions are presented in various genres and eras. Pop and rock hits of the 90s and modernity, retro compositions of the middle of the 20th century, classic works, songs from movies and much more. Often there are Belarusian rock and folk performers.

Tour 5 - pictures (you need to guess that or who is depicted, from where the frame, which is advertised, etc.).

Here, we mainly use erudition and observation. For example, it is required to guess the film on the presented frame, the name and author of the picture fragment, the name of the brand from advertising and so on. However, in some issues, logic in this tour can also help.

Try to guess who is depicted in this photo? (1 minute)

The characteristic mole on the cheek helps determine that this is none other than Robert de Niro.

Tour 7 - Blitz. 7 simple and short questions of various types and genres appear on the screen only 15 seconds and read out. Questions do not remain on the screen and are not repeated. On the thinking and recording on the leaflet is given for another 50 seconds. The team itself decides which value will every answer of the tour - the mark opposite the answer means its estimation by system + 2 / -2 (correct / incorrect), and the absence of it means traditional estimation (1/0). Thus, the maximum in themost of +14 points, minimum -14.

The cowarent of all tours. Even if you have been confidently lying on the entire game with a good margin - the seventh tour can be changed to change everything. But his cunning manifests itself not only in this. Questions of this tour, as a rule, on erudition, but very tricky and have many pricks. Send these tricks after a two-hour brainstorming, and even in 15 seconds sometimes it happens very difficult. On the other hand, this is exactly what makes some element of intrigue.

An example of a question 7 round: What country flag is presented below? (15 seconds)

So we thought Ireland. And even the tick set. But no it is Ireland, but the most real cat d'Ivoire! But if you guess - well done!

If we talk about the general quality of questions - then on our subjective view, they fully comply with such format. There are too light questions, and forgetting that "everything and our life in simple" - you begin to look for some more sophisticated, original, but the root is not loyal answers. There are and very difficult to just know, but mostly the game presents questions that can be thought of logically. However, there are also real masterpieces, whose beauty is evaluated, even if he gave an incorrect answer.

Definition of places

In the hall of the room for teams, the organizers are determined on the basis of the number of participants in a particular team so that everyone is comfortable to play. At the entrance to the hall you will definitely orient where the table of your team is. In the tournament table, the places are determined on the basis of the scored points. If they coincide - then a higher position is given to that team, which in the previous round gave a greater number of correct answers. If the glasses coincided in it - there is a tour that was before and so on.

Controversial questions

If the team believes that it gave the correct answer, and it was not fairly counted - it is possible to refer to the organizers after 3 and 6 tours to consider the claim. Although it should be noted, in contrast to other intellectual games in the brain, it is very loyal to the formulations of responses and they can be counted, even if not entirely correctly, but meet the logic of the question. It should also be noted that there were cases when the team appeared to the organizers asking not to count the answer. Such actions in the spirit of Fair Play are honored by the team and improve the quality of the game.

Prizes and gifts

Unlike the banal prizes of some "supereloto" in the form of a three-room apartment or an unknown SUV, the brain offers something more valuable:

Emotions and there is a major prize and absolutely all. We strive for this and we, and the players themselves. A team that will respond to more questions than others gets also a big champagne as a Cup) sometimes there are incentive prizes, gifts for all, souvenirs.

Indeed, on the past game, additional gifts in the form of delicious (probably) of the cakes went to the teams who took the first three places in the survey on the history of the names. All other participants waited for a surprise in the form of living group execution Point 6 Band In the interruptions between the tours. And on the previous game, we wrote yourself wishes on postcards, which the organizers promised to send as a surprise after an indefinite time.

Professor - Lophch, but equipment with it

Since the game has a competitive component - the issue of honesty is one of the relevant. It's no secret that, if desired, many questions can be burned down, and the compositions are determined using the Shazam application. Therefore, we decided to take advantage of the services of Mozgobond, asking the organizers the next question: "Is any control over compliance with the honest game and what kind of harsh car is waiting for insidious cheaters?"


First of all, we are going to have a good time. This is not a competition, not the championship, but a popular game that people like, and they come to us for emotions. It does not matter where in the end you will find a goal - to meet friends and spend time in pleasant communication. Google and shazamy - it is to spoil yourself the evening for which you paid money, abandon the drive. Every sense and intrigue is lost. Such people are not even very loved in their own teams, they substitute everyone at once.

Therefore, we will not climb to everyone in the phone, there are different situations in which you need to answer SMS or call. But someone is constantly in the hall and ensures that people frankly did not use gadgets. This can be seen when someone hides or burns the blue shazam screen. There are such cases almost on each game, then we offer to play honestly, and if the second time come across, then we take the form with the answers or remove several points.

Champions League

There are legends that there is a certain mysterious league of the champions of the brain, in which the winners of the previous games are playing. Unfortunately, to highlight your own experience in such a tournament. We can not yet, because of some ridiculous formalities;) Therefore, we give the data that managed to find out from reliable sources.


We divide the year for two seasons. According to their results, a final game is held, in which the teams that occupied the first place at least once.

There are additional indicators. It happens that the team occupied the second place many times, and many participants of the LC are asked to give a chance to these guys. The more participants in the final, the more interesting to all to fight for the victory and so it is sweeter. LCH is the final game of the season, its closure, so we always cook something special for this game, and the winner gets a real cup!

Out of the game

Mattled. The working day has long ended and the inhabitants of neighboring offices scattered around the houses. But the friendly team of our edition did not disperse, but prepared for the upcoming "brain". The results of the last games, alas, did not please - more and more often we turned out to be closer to the end of the tournament table, everything is less likely to the beginning.

The main thing is to include logic! - Worried about our chief editor, - that's where we did not guese the photo on the last game: whose stuffy eyes are. They answered: Kim Jong Yun, and it was necessary - Jackie Chan! After all, it is so easy! Why should Kim Jan stand on his head? And Jackie Chan himself performs all the tricks!

And the editors deepened in training tasks.

"This Baron chose motto:" Faster, above, stronger. " Minute went.

Munchhausen! - The answer appeared instantly.

Why? - Well, how: he pulled himself for his hair from somewhere and flew somewhere on the kernel ... - for sure!

"The poem" I remember the wonderful moment "Pushkin dedicated .... - Name the name, name and patronymic. "

We from somewhere exactly should know her name! - Followed the logic of our friendly team. - So maybe his wife? - And the name-patronymic? - Anna Petrovna? - And not Arina Rodionovna? - This is not a nanny? ...

And the queue was a new question: "The African dictator of the Bokassa became famous for ....".

Black person? - Here the chief editor knocked the pencil on the cupboard. - That is, Afro-African!

Well, is it a paradoxical enough - African dictator - African? On "Mozgoena", for example, love paradoxical questions. - And then, maybe he was a kind person, all the dictators of cruel, but he is kind? ...

"So the appeal to the graphs and princes sounded - ...."

How can we know this? - But there is a song about Golitsyn with Obolensky ... - Are they definitely princes or graphs?

The yard has already been completely merged.

Let's see what we have checked here, - the chief editor summarizes. - Baron Münhhausen chose motto: "Faster, more stronger." The poem "I remember the wonderful moment" the poet dedicated Arina Petrovna Pushkin. The African Bocse dictator became famous as a humanist ... The first Soviet film about scouts was called "from Russia with love." "Frail, like a butterfly and stiff, like a bee" - Ogrenika Nikolai Valuev. Turning to the graphs and princes, said: "Pour wine" ... Finally, the last task!

"Two hands - ten fingers, - How many fingers fifty hands?"

Here opinions were divided: fifty, thousand, five hundred ... began to vote and confused even more.

They will reply, - summarized the editor, - twice as fewer than a hundred! And let them try not to count! Today everything!

And the answers?!

And the answers will be on the "brain"! And that our answers are correct! Turn on logic!

Dozens of teams play the intellectual game "Mozdania". The next "brain" will take place on January 24th. Registration on it is already open.

"People are ready to pay money for food, entertainment and sex. We cannot offer sex. Eating and so there. There are entertainment. Take care of people - and they will make you rich. " The creators of the most popular Minsk Pub-Quiz - "Mozgoyney" - told Kyky, how to earn lovers to break their heads.

The idea of \u200b\u200bPub-Quiz was born in England in the late 1970s. Teams are collected in a relaxed atmosphere of the bar, drink beer and respond to simple and funny questions. The winner receives the prize - as a rule, rather symbolic. Everything is simple, and, as often happens with simple things, - ingenious: players can feel the fear of struggle and at the same time do not spoil themselves the mood by a bad result.

The opinion of Pavel Sverdlova, the owner of the Crystal owl of the Ukrainian teleclub "What? Where? When?"

"Brain - Shilo. I go there because friends are called. Questions - slag, Boyani from the Internet, and even from sports games. It was on the last game picture - the faces of people closed, it was necessary to guess who it was. And these were Timati and Kobzon. How to take it? Know all photos of Timati or all friends of Kobzon? Very, damn, useful knowledge.
More picture - Berlin photos from the aircraft, Western and eastern light light. Well, this is a boy-brazing! At the same time, many issues are formulated so that it is possible to come up with three, and ten equivalent answers ... in CHGK, for example, the question must contain information that definitely leads to the correct answer, otherwise it is not a question. And in the "brain" requirements for the quality of the quality of questions, that's the quality of anything ... I think that for the money that the authors of the "brain" could be much more professional to approach the package and invent something truth is witty. But why, if Piple and so hawts?
From me a huge respect to the authors of the project "Melotrek" - who really invests a lot of time and effort into preparation and 100% worries those money that participants pay for the game! "

Pub-Prize is very popular in America and Europe - more than 20 thousand games are held in the UK alone. Intellectual fun has come to Belarus just a few years ago, but the public loved very quickly: Bar Quiz passes in Minsk hardly every week, their formats are becoming more diverse, dozens of teams are going to games. The pioneer of the genre in the Republic of Belarus became "brain". For three years, Sasha Khanina and Kati Maksimova gathered a whole army of players, and not only in Minsk - "Mozdanin" regularly passes in different cities of Belarus, and more recently spread over the country's borders. Where many players are there a lot of money. The organizers of the Belarusian pub-quiz told Kyky, as fun for friends became a profitable business.

Where did Pub-Quese come from?


Sasha Khannin and Katya Maksimova

Sasha: We live a lot of time in Lithuania, and there we ourselves played several similar projects. Among the Lithuanian pub-quizes there is a fairly high competition: when "braga" was launched three years ago in Minsk, there were 10-15 different small projects in Vilnius. One of the games did our friend, he also offered us a crazy idea for us at that time - to hold the game in Minsk.

Kate:We immediately laughed, but after a few months we decided. Translated a couple of packages of questions from Lithuanian language into Russian - and began to play.

Is your pub-quiz been first in Minsk?

Sasha: To be honest, I did not study the history of pub-quiz in Belarus - but it seems that there was nothing like that nothing like that.

Kate: Perhaps there were their closed parties. In Minsk, the movement of sports "What? Where? When? "Many teams play here. Chgkshniki probably gathered in a more informal atmosphere and played something like that. But we did not meet such a format.

Who came to your first games?


Kate:On the first game we collected 60 people - all friends and relatives. It was one of the reasons for the launch of the game: we spent most of the time in Vilnius, with Minsk friends saw much less frequently, what I would like - the game allowed to change it. Further worked with a sarafined radio. It began with 10 teams, and now almost two and a half hundred plays with us, and with each next game they are added.

At what point came first earnings?

Sasha:In the first year there was no income at all, everything went out in zero. After all, our friends played with us - and we did gifts, tangerines for the new year bought. We just tried to make a friendly atmosphere: so that people were interested in to laugh. Everything has grown gradually: 60 people, 70, 80 ... If someone said 3 years ago, I will carry out 400 people a month for 6 times a month, I would have twisted my finger at the temple, probably. I am not a very shy person without the experience of public speeches - but 400 people!

Kate:We never considered money, we initially had another motivation. When you finish the university, you start working - you understand that the memory slows down, the brain begins to dull. What to do? Read books. And to read more - it is necessary that something pushed you, motivated.

Sasha:At first we wanted to solve the scan tags, but did not find a textbook.

Kate: So we decided to do something, from what people the brain would move, the gear worked. That is, we initially did everything for themselves - and until recently, they did not even notice how much expanded.


Sasha:For what people are ready to pay money - this is for food, entertainment and sex. We can't offer sex - except in questions he constantly slipk. We have food. There are entertainment. Take care of people - and they will make you rich. Now everyone wishes to play "Maze" do not fit into one bar, and games pass for several days in a row, on different sites.

Kate: This is a precedent solution. Many teams gathered - what to do? We decided to play two days, and then at three. "Brade" is developing not as much as we are, how many people: many players gathered - we are looking for a large room, I wanted the people of the cultural component - we organize musical pauses. People wanted to hold "brain" in other cities - we opened the franchise.

Sasha: At first there was a dilemma: to ask the same questions on the second day - or to make a new game. Due to natural laziness, the first option bends. After all, we initially positioned the game as leisure, entertainment, not a sport. It seems to be the teams can merge the right answers - but who needs it? Why deal with - for a bottle of champagne? (Prize for victory in the game - approx.) We have no sponsors, there are no big prizes, there are no ratings. People come to relax!

What part of the profit goes to the organization of games?

Kate: We pay to everyone who helps us: from the sound engineer to the guys who run around the hall and collect leaves with answers. For thanks, I do not chase anyone!


Rusya and Dmitry Shepelevich

Sasha: We have DJ, which is responsible for the atmosphere of the game - I think he makes half the case.

Kate: There is a person who, we take projectors for rent - Pavel Turner, he is Plaha. We pay him for delivery, installation and connection of projectors. Everything is difficult there, whole piles of wires - it is necessary that the projectors work, and televisions around the hall, and the sound is synchronous with the picture.

Sasha: There is also a person who helps us in social networks, with accounting, office work, printing tickets, revenue to the bank refers - Dima Shepelevich.

Kate: And the guys who help us in place: collect leaves with answers, help to check them and expose points.

Does the clubs for rent a specific amount - or everything on mutual benefit?

Kate: Differently. Some clubs approve a fixed bet, someone asks the percentage of revenue: sometimes 10, sometimes 30. In different institutions there are absolutely different conditions.

Sasha:On average, the organization leaves about 45% of profit.


Speech Šuma.

Kate: Sometimes we serve as a group - at the opening of the season, for example, playing Šuma. The fee, rental of equipment, the work of the sound engineer - and in the end the game is obtained in zero, image. But I want to believe, everyone likes.

As "braga" conquers cities

For three gaming days, more than 200 teams comes to the "brain", on average 6 people playing in each. Participation in the game costs 40,000 - to calculate the overall profit is easy. Every month passes 2-3 games. This, however, not all the earnings of the organizers - the "brain" died franchise throughout Belarus.

How did the geographical distribution begins - the seizure of "brains" of Belarus?

Kate: We did not capture anyone! Ads in newspapers were not given.

Sasha:But the media played in this not the last role. The first person who came out - Vitebsk guy Rinat Karimov - read an article in "KP". I used to see only in the most terrible dream that I will write "Komsomolka"! Apparently, stereotypes in the head worked.

Kate: Now we have two teams from Komsomolki play: editors and journalists. What is some that others are stunning.

Sasha: So, when a man from Vitebsk came to us and said that he wanted to make the game in his city - for us it was a signal that the income can be translated into passive. Further, everything rolled like a snowball. They announced a couple of times on the game - and suggestions fell: "I want to spend there, I want there ..." But in fact, the income is passive in the classical sense, it is not: to make a "brain" for other cities, a lot of energy is outlined.

Regional games are held on your issues?

Kate: Yes. Mostly on the issues that we wrote for "Mozgoboen" two years ago.


Sasha: But we have to brand the base of the question, and it is very cool: not very successful or not very funny questions we fold. We have a tour of questions on fresh news - and news in all regions are sent fresh. The people love when they care about it when it can be seen that the game is made specifically for them. Great when there are local issues - and we offer local organizers to include at least one question about their city in every game.

In how many cities is "brain"?

Kate:In addition to Minsk, even 9. From Belarusian - Vitebsk, Gomel, Grodno, Brest, Baranovichi, Bobruisk, plus Mogilev starts soon. There is also Bryansk, and in two weeks, Peter is launched.

Sasha:We have special conditions for Belarus, and I would like to evenly allocate the country, so Orsha, Soligorsk, Novopolotsk, Pinsk and Lida plans.

In Minsk pub-quiz is becoming more and more. How serious is the competition?

Sasha: Due to the fact that we are now playing for several days, the teams have a choice. Even if we coincide with another Pub Quiz, the teams can register with us for another day.

Kate:90% of teams that play alternative projects are playing both "brain". You open the list of commands - all names are familiar. In addition, we have already developed a recognizable "brain" format of issues.


Sasha: We get issues to such that it is interesting for people to have fun to laugh at their own answers - and correct, and wrong. I participated in many pub-quiz, not only in Lithuania and Belarus - and it seems to me that we have the best questions. I do not know how correctly it is to evaluate for my part, but it seems to me that we have become the legislator of the mod, on which they are equal. Alternative projects are often compared with "Mooring", the organizers themselves usually or come against us, or are trying to copy the format of "Mozdnes". And everyone has its own audience. In general, competition keeps us in a tone, trimmed - so that we are very grateful to other Minsk pub-quiz for what they are.

Matte players "What? Where? When?" Often criticized the "brain": they say, and the wording you do not have such clear, and it will start so softer ...

Kate: The rigidity of the testimony is important when the result is important when there is a rating when defending the question is the matter of honor. And we play pleasure, and if the team explains its logic very close to the right, we count to her.

We want us to have a 12-year-old guys to play, and grandparents also. Why do they need questions from "What? Where? When?"!

Sasha: The "brain" has a human face. Ideal wording, hard rules of questionation of questions - this is not a goal. People pay for entertainment, for a good evening, for the fact that we do not give them to fall asleep in the break.


Does the moment come when you can go to the "brain" pension, getting only passive income from the franchise?

Sasha:Very hope that never! Minsk, probably, will remain ours until we lose the ability to think or talk. As for the rest of the cities, we will eventually provide them with great independence so that it was a classic franchise.

Kate: The percentage we take a very small one - 10% of revenue, plus 30 euros per package of questions. To receive a serious commission, we need to cover cities 200! Therefore, no pension is not talking about. We do not even perceive it as a business. We spoke to us a couple of times that we are businessmen, and we look at yourself and think - what, however, is it?

Sasha: We already have notes for other countries - Czech Republic, Germany, Switzerland. To Russia now came. For other countries there will be other conditions, more harsh: there is a solvency of people are different, and the scale, plus the cost of translation and adaptation of games will be required.

Are there a pub-addicts common worldwide?

Kate:To be honest, we have not studied the market. Perhaps something rushed as "brain" - in the same America, for example. But there are no analogues of McDonalds in Pub-Quiz.

Sasha:Hopefully in five years we can discuss this topic from another angle!

"Braver": quiz for pubs

RULES OF THE GAME

7 rounds, in each of the 7 questions. All different: somewhere you need to guess who the author of the "Mona Lisa", in the other - in which movie played the main hit 80s, the song Sweet Dreams group Eurhythmics, in the third - in which sequence should travel for typical exam in the traffic police Picture. The team responses (5 - 8 people) are recorded on the letterhead, refer to the lead that makes the results in the table and bring it to the screen.

Pub Quiz genre ("Quiz in the Bar") is widespread in America. There are people sitting at one table, are considered a team leading questions to the microphone, and these the most "teams" show him the answers written on the signs. Winners - prize. For more than a year, at least 200 people have been having something similar in Belarus.

We encountered a restaurant format of the game in Lithuania, "Sasha Khanin and Katia Maksimova toll the organizers of" Mozgoyney ". "My colleague organized the game Protmūšis (from Lithuanian -" Braver ") and called to play. I played, attacked, and we began to think together how to organize the game in Minsk. And although the first few games we did in college with colleagues, the Belarusian "braga" still not a trash, but the author's project. Each game has its own feature: and in how questions are selected, and in who does it and how it works with the public, and even what music sounds between tours. In Lithuania, for example, many questions on pure knowledge (this complicates the task and forms a certain contingent of participants), we almost all issues are taken clean logic. For encyclopedic knowledge, there is "What? Where? When?". By the way, players from the club come to us then to relax and drink beer in the company of friends.

- Prepare the game - for a long time?

14 hours. 90% of questions are invented, are located and collected per day before the game. Specially directories and encyclopedias We do not read: about half of the questions - from the Internet, part - from the base (you can only take the job on logic from there, because it is practically working fine). And it happens, we read some kind of cool article in which there are three interesting facts at once! When you are preparing for the game, you are in intellectual tone: you read, remember, notice ... For example, in the last game there was a question: "How trolleybus translates the left arrow?" It seems to be confronted with trolley buses every day, and how it happens - it is not clear. Actually, the authorship of the game is not to come up with something (everything has long been invented!), But in order to find questions that it is possible and interesting to solve. So that in the head swept "Oh, well, it's so simple!", And when they say the answer - there was the effect of "Va-Ay!". But it depends on the relationship towards the game: someone comes for pleasure, someone is for the sake of sports and self-affirmation.

- And how did you agree with the cafe?

The first few games were played elsewhere, then 45 people participated. But the number of participants began to grow, now they are 170. We advised the cafe where we play now: "There is a lot of space and huge screens - what you need!" Once we came here to drink coffee - and after 5 minutes they agreed: why not: on weekdays at 19.00 in a cafe, located not in the city center, almost no one (unless football or Eurovision show). More people than we, in this restaurant no one collects, even corporate! By the way, they were also invited to corporaterates from "Mozdnes", but it is still first of all a hobby. In addition to the game, we have a normal work (Sasha - business coach, Katya - his assistant. - Ed.). The best things are always growing from the hobby.


CHECK YOURSELF

Would you answer the questions of "Mozdnes"?

"Melotrek": songs on the contrary

RULES OF THE GAME

7 rounds, 12 questions in each: somewhere you need to guess a song on her entry, somewhere - lost in the opposite direction, somewhere - music from advertising, cartoons or cinema, somewhere - songs with city names, women's names etc. In a team - up to 4 people.

If you go downstairs, we first appeared - "good people," - recalls Anya Kosolapov - one of the organizers of Melotrek. - Last winter we wanted warmth and positive, so we created a community in the social network, where they began to place different positive pictures (then it would be useful). At the same time, we sat tightly on the "brain" (the musical tour, however, did not love too much). At some point they thought: why not organize an informal competition, so that everyone came, drank, played and listened to good music? We held a contest for friends, everyone liked. Then we found a place (the club in which they used to play and in the Crocodile, and in the Mafia, and at the concerts), invited people from the winter community created in the winter - and now 10 weeks for the weekend 60 people with an ecstasy plays In "Melotrek".


Preparation of one game takes a whole week, - continues Katya Ivashchenko, another member of "good people". - Each of us spends on it for 15 to 20 hours (and we also work - programmers, lawyers ...). We need to keep the material, cut off unnecessary, test tasks to each other (are not too primitive or, on the contrary, complex?). After discraining you need to chop songs into pieces, cook two versions: one for questions, another - for answers. And then our comrade Lesha sits down and about five hours makes a presentation from this all ...

We are very glad that thanks to us, people start listening to good music. Here, for example, in front of the rock-"Melotrek", my colleague listened to the LED Zeppelin for three hours in a row. When I asked her, why, I heard: "We are preparing! Modern rock we know, and the classic is not very. It turned out that they are so cool - we are still listening! " The same was in a tour with poets (we asked whose poems sounded in popular songs): despite the fact that the correct answers were about 50%, people liked it. In the process of preparation, we educate, and during the game - enjoy the fact that a pleasant company is going. People come who are pleased to see with whom it is nice to play and sing: Oh, how to sing Lyapisovskaya "Evpatoria" or "Vladivostok -2000" "Mumiy Troll"!
