HOW TO PLAY
Official Commands
In order to start an official game, you need to be a voice (+). These happen every 4 hours starting from Midnight EST.
Official games currently follow this format:
/trivia new timer, pokemon, long
In order to start the official, say "triviastart" in chat (since it highlights room users) and then use the command
/trivia start .
You may wish to add "triviastart" to your highlights if you're interested in playing the scripted games.
To join an official game, type
/trivia join. To answer a question once it has begun, type
/ta and then your answer.
Classic Commands
The game mode in which players ask their own questions is known as "Classic", and is tracked by our ladder bot "Jeopard-E". If it is your turn to ask a question, you can indicate the person who has answered correctly with
~yes username.
Please tabcomplete usernames!
If you wish to let a different person ask the question instead, you may pass the baton with
~bp username.
If you are a voice or above, the
~bp command is accessible to you at all times (so you can get things going again if the asker leaves or asks an inappropriate question.
You can check the top 5 leaderboard scores by PM-ing Jeopard-E
~ttleaderboard check (alternatively just use the button in the roomintro which executes this for you).
You can check your own score (or any other person's) by PM-ing Jeopard-E
~ttleaderboard check, username.
