Bot Checks

During the game you will receive bot checks. These checks make sure that you are actually playing the game yourself instead of a Bot. On the bot check page you will see a page with the following (notated in bold text):

This page is brought to you by, followed with an image of 2 words, being 3 or 4 letter words.

Please type the top 3 or 4 letter word: _______

You have 2 minutes to respond.

Notes:

  • All displayed letters are lower case, but you can answer in upper case.
  • You can re-read the intro here [1].
  • If you accidentally click Back or otherwise exit this page, you can get back to it by clicking on the link again.

What this means is:

  • You have to type the top 3 or 4 letter word in the box below the actual image. The letters are displayed lower case but you can answer in both lower and upper case.
  • You have 2 minutes to respond, to actually fill in the bot check and enter it.
  • When accidently clicking Back or going to another page, you can bring back up this bot check page by trying to continue to fight or forge again.
  • If you fail the first bot check, by typing the wrong answer, you will be given a second chance. You should see "That was incorrect. Please try again." on the next bot check page.
  • If you fail the second chance 'or' do not fill in the bot check within 2 minutes, the system will suspend your Fighting and Forging abilities.

Suspension

When being suspended you will be unable to fight or forge until either the 60 minute duration has run out, or you payed the fine. When trying to fight or forge you will be sent to another page in which you see the information about the suspension.

You should see the following, but probably with different times and fine costs:

Your privilege to fight was suspended for 60 minutes starting at 7:13 AM EST. Current server time is Thu Nov 3 07:13:51 2005.

You may fight again when that time has elapsed, or you may continue immediately after paying a fine of $14,956. Click here to pay $14,956 and continue fighting.

  • The suspension lasts for 60 minutes and when updating the page you will see the timer go down to 0.
  • During the suspension your Battle Allocation (BA) will not replenish itself. (You can however buy additional BA, but can't use it.)
  • The height of the fine is based on your Minion Power (MPR). So, the higher your MPR is, the higher your fine will be.
  • The height of the fine goes down the longer you wait.
  • There is no way to bypass this fine other than waiting or paying.

Bot Check Difficulties

Some bot checks are harder than others, and they are all randomly generated and all unique, even with the same words used.

Some more help about bot checks can be found on this page of the game: http:/challenge/help.tcl

Also a Bot Check Trainer, which can be handy when not being too good at reading cursive can be found here: http://cb.dontpanic.nl/botcheck/


Fun Facts

The bot check example on this page is a real one, it isn't faked. User Shade received his own fine and realized there was not a page on bot checks, so he created one and added his fine as an example.
