ICC Help: TriviaBot

TriviaBot is a trivia game. To play, simply go to channel 272 and answer the questions as fast as you can. Each question has 5 possible answers, numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. Only one answer to each question is correct. To answer the question simply tell your answer to TriviaBot. You can add aliases to help you do this faster, see finger TriviaBot.

Dasher users can use these shortcut keys: ----------------------------------------- CONTROL+1 - to answer "1" CONTROL+2 - to answer "2" CONTROL+3 - to answer "3" CONTROL+4 - to answer "4" CONTROL+5 - to answer "5"

You can keep changing your answer, but the sooner you give it the right answer the more points you will get. Once the answer has been revealed, TriviaBot will stop taking any more answers.

Each question has a maximum of 1000 points. The score decreases 50 points per second. The time will start 3 seconds after you first see the 5 multiple choices. If you don't answer a question, then you get 0 points. But if you do answer and get it wrong, then you receive -250 points.
