''Battle of the Brains'' was a Philippine quiz show shown at RPN 9 from 1992 to 1999 and at PTV 4 from 1999 to 2001. It was hosted for almost all episodes by David Celdran, with various alternates (including Chiqui Roa-Puno, Cathy Santillan, and Anthony Suntay) taking over in his absence. The show is primarily sponsored by Uniwide Sales, Inc. (a major budget retailer during the show's popularity) from 1992 to 1999, and by AMA Computer College from 2000 and 2001 before the show folded. The show was open to all elementary, high school and college students nationwide, but the majority of grand champions have come from Metro Manila. ==Tournament format== *Competitors usually join by contacting Focal Media Arts by telephone, and are directly slotted for the televised Weekly Finals. However, there are also reports that non-televised provincial rounds have been held.〔https://nursingero.wordpress.com/2008/11/08/kalat/〕 *Each season determines its elementary, high school, and college level Grand Champions in a single-elimination tournament with 4 rounds (called the Weekly, Monthly, Quarterly, and Grand Finals). Only the top competitor advances to the next round. *The Weekly and Quarterly Finals feature 4 competitors each, while the Monthly and Grand Finals each field 3 competitors. However, there have been exceptions to this allocation for rounds prior to the Grand Finals. *Each competing elementary and high school is represented by 2 students (except for elementary teams from Seasons 1 and 2, which fielded 3 students each). The college competition featured an individual representing the school, except from Season 8 (1999–2000 season) onwards, when 2-person teams were adopted. *Alternates were allowed for elementary and high school competitors. But once used in competition, the alternate must continue to compete, taking the displaced student's place, for the rest of the competition. *In Season 9 (2000–2001 season), the format for the college level was changed to the returning-champion format similar to that of ''Jeopardy!''. The winner will return on the next episode to face a new set of challengers until they lost. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Battle of the Brains (Philippine TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
