The game “What? Where? When? has been on the air for over 35 years. Every year, the program receives 300-400 thousand letters with questions for connoisseurs, but only dozens of the most interesting and beautiful riddles get to the gaming table.
It is necessary
- - an envelope with a sufficient number of stamps;
- - personal photo;
- - paper and pen or internet access.
Instructions
Step 1
Study the information for those who want to ask a question to experts on the official website of the game. Remember that the first selection takes place "by eye" - letters with errors or obvious and banal are rejected. In addition, a serious check of the sources on the data of which the question is based is being carried out. Tasks are encouraged not on knowing the exact facts, but on those whose correct answer can be found using logic and reasoning.
Step 2
Send the letter by mail. To do this, on a piece of paper, formulate your question as clearly as possible, write the answer below and all the sources (print and virtual) that you used. Be sure to include your last name and first name, leave contact information, including phone number, address, email. In rare cases, the editors contact the person who sent the letter to clarify the details, but this is rather an exception. You also need to put your photo in the envelope. Send a letter to the address 127427, Moscow, st. Academician Korolev, 12, “What? Where? When? . If you want to ask a video question to connoisseurs, make a high-quality recording in DVD or Mini DV format, send it along with the letter by parcel post.
Step 3
Write to the e-mail address of the editorial staff of the program “What? Where? When? [email protected]. Requirements for the question and design are the same as for written messages. They must be literate and not too simple. Write the question itself in the body of the letter, not in the attachment. Don't forget about photography. The undoubted advantage of e-mail is that the message will not get lost somewhere in the mail.
Step 4
Take the opportunity to send a question directly during the game. To do this, visit the page of Sector No. 13, it is also called “Questions from MTS”. Enter the task and the answer to it in the special fields. The page functions correctly only from the beginning of the broadcast until the moment when the top indicates the thirteenth sector. This presents some inconvenience for regions with a time zone other than Moscow, because there the game is shown in the recording. It is better for such TV viewers to check the Moscow program guide and send a question to sector 13 immediately after the actual start of the broadcast.
