Quick Basic Stuff
- Send $2000 to Trivia II
- Join room Trivia when I am running it (type "/join Trivia")
- I will ask a question, you answer in PM and the first two correct answers get 2 and 1 points respectively.
- After all 10 questions are asked, the person with the most points wins the total pot.
- Anybody can play, veterans or newbies! This game has nothing to do with you score, PR, net worth, etc. or even whether I know you or not.
- Will be run when ever I have time somewhere between 7 and 10 pm EDT ( - 6 Hrs GMT), type '/join Trivia' to get there.
- I will ask 10 questions, answers will be in PM only. Chat is for discussion among players, and for posting questions/answers/winners.
- First correct answer gets 2 points, second correct answer gets 1 point.
- 20 second time limit. If only one person answers correctly before the 20 seconds are up, he/she gets 3 points. If nobody answers, nobody gets any points (obviously ;-)
- After all 10 questions are done with, the person with the most points wins the entire pot (all entry fees and donations).
- You must play the whole game to win. E.g. if you leave but still have the most points, the person in second place would win the pot.
- Tie-breaker will be a CB related question. Cost is $2000 to play, send money to "Trivia II". You must pay before the game starts. If you pay and are unable to play, I will refund you or keep your money until next time. If you leave at any time during Trivia, I will keep a certain amount of your money depending on when you leave.
- Anybody is welcome to just come and watch, if you don't want to actually play. You don't have to pay to watch.
- If I feel you are being disruptive or obnoxious, I will kick you out.
- Donations are more than welcome, even if you don't plan to play. Donations can be anything - money, weapons, armor, though money is preferred.
- If I leave at any time during Trivia unannounced, it means my chat has frozen :-P I'll just be back in several minutes. (literally, several minutes. Please be patient and wait ;-) If this happens, I need somebody responsible to give me my ops back when I return. Thanks in advance :-)
