Oriented on making people closer

A tournament on the sports version of the game "What? Where? When?" under the auspices of the International Association of Intellectual Games and under the license of the TV company "Igra-TV".

The competition brought together over 30 teams, including representatives of various age categories: from schoolchildren and students to experienced experts who have already participated in such competitions.

The difference between the sports version of the famous game and the TV version is that instead of one team playing against the viewers, many teams from all over Turkmenistan take part in it, competing with each other.

A minute for reflection, four rounds of 15 questions - the intellectual review included questions from various fields of literature, history, sports, etc.

• The questions on our order were developed by experts who play the same game, only in other countries: Russia, Kyrgyzstan, Armenia. They are constantly writing questions for such events on a professional level. The focus of the questions is the widest: history, geography, anything can be from any field," Roman Bespalov, one of the organizers, told ORIENT correspondent, "When we conceived this tournament, we wanted to raise interest in such events where at the same time we need to compete, learn something new, share our knowledge.

According to the results of the intellectual competition, the winner was the team "Old Guard" consisting of Roman Bespalov, Roman Teplyakov, Roman Magomedov, Daniil Mayakovsky, Vladimir Mkrtumov and Elena Kuliyeva. Of the 60 suggested questions, the team answered 31 correctly.

The second place was taken by the "All-in-One" team, which answered 29 questions correctly. The three leaders were closed by the team "Altyn Asyr" with 28 correct answers.
