Brain World Cup is a Japanese quiz show.
Contents
History
One day, Josh showed Floorpi a video of the show, and with its funny tasks (such as the number triangle, map of Africa, and flags containing red) and amazing host, it became a smash hit. Soon after, Floorpi ran its own Brain World Cup: teams were randomly formed, and each team, plus the hosts, contributed a task. So far, there have been three Floorpi Brain World Cups: one in Fall 2012, one during IAP 2013, and one in Fall 2013.
Floorpi also now has a Brain World Comm, for all matters Brain World Cup-related.
Brain World Cup I
The first BWC was held on November 9, 2012. It featured flag-based events and a number triangle with a twist.
Brain World Cup II
The second BWC was held on January 13, 2013. Jon Kabira was scheduled to show up, but his flight was cancelled. It featured a scavenger hunt where teams had to locate where various photos on campus were taken. It also had the now-famous face-merging event.
Brain World Cup III
The third BWC was held on November 5, 2013. It featured a scavenger hunt where teams had to find odd items around MIT (such as "someone wearing a Harvard sweatshirt"). Dinner was served to competitors, and Jon Kabira's flight was cancelled due to volcanic activity.
Brain World Cup IV
The fourth BWC was held on April 21, 2014. It featured a zephyr-based runaround and a treasure hunt in the Stata center. Jon Kabira once again failed to show up.
Brain World Cup V
The fifth BWC was held on January 15, 2015.
Brain World Cup VI
The sixth BWC was held on May 8, 2015.
Brain World Cup VII
The seventh BWC was held on February 13, 2016.
